Im not sure that this option means that you dont want FRR swaps. For me it means that you want to take swaps at FRR price and i think that FRR for receive swap is another percent value since it wouldnt make sense otherwise. So one would create an FRR at the FRR for actively given swaps on the green side. So probably something way below the 0.11%. It really would be strange if its another way. But when i think about it. Im sure it isnt that way. Most users dont even have this option checked i think and still the FRR wall is eaten a bit often.

I'm having real trouble figuring out what you mean here. For example, "one would create an FRR at the FRR for actively given swaps on the green side" is not a phrase that I'm able to parse.

I'm looking at the Margin Trade page, where there's a dropdown section titled "Margin available", which... doesn't seem to be entirely accurate, but attempts to say how much money is available for swaps. There's a checkbox labelled "Include variable rates?". I'm assuming that with that box ticked, FRR-swaps are included in the margin available for you to take from, and that with it unticked you'll instead only take swaps from fixed-rate offers.

Sorry for that. Tongue

I meant that there has to be two FRR rates. One for receive swap, one for offer swap. It sounded like you thought the option to use FRR rates for receive swap means that, when disabled, and chosing a rate that is higher than FRR on the swap offers orderbook, that you can clear this orderbook without taking the FRR-rate swaps.

But i see now what you mean. With include variable rates? one can circumvent the FRR-wall.

I dont see a reason for that option existing. In fact its unfair to those offering at FRR. Why give them an disadvantage against normal orders? Is there a reason that explains this?

simple email to support would answer this

"The IP address belongs to Incapsula, which is our DDoS protection service.

As Incapsula acts as a proxy for Bitfinex, it means that we have to be relying on extra information from your connection to "guess" the IP address. If for some reasons the network you used or the browser you used did not forward any of that information, the Incapsula IP can appear in lieu of your real IP.

I fully understand your concern. You experienced the affects of a DDoS attempt, though very annoying, no real bug. "

camolist you got that answer from support? it is very confusing and lacks of technical detail, there is nothing to "guess" about a source IP address, every connection comes with a source IP address and nothing need to be forwarded...
This is the first time happening to me in about a year, and if ppl start seeing successfull logins history from FOREIGN IP addresses this is absolutely normal to start worrying and flooding email support with questions.

I wonder too what that answer means. I mean i always use the same browser. Its not possible that from this ip a ddos came in so my ip should always be the same. And i doubt that camolist is used as a proxy and they log in with my login details so that their IP is shown when they forward my login details. Would be a bit weird that way.

I havent seen such IP-login-stat with other exchanges too.
