I want to buy and sell BTC with margin trading etc, whats an alternative to bitmex?

[...]

There's Kraken, but it has terrible, glitchy trade engine.

Not anymore, they finally fixed it.

Are you sure? They made an announcement a week ago stating that in another week they would give an update on their efforts to fix the problems

https://blog.kraken.com/post/1413/update-on-system-performance-and-upgrade/

There's nothing I can find on the blog yet. The only thing I could find was this status update saying problems with deposits and withdrawals have been resolved.

If it's only btcusd you want to trade i recommend kraken.com. They have the best reputation when it comes to trust. You might read some complaints about the site not working and generating a lot of errors, but that was because of the high number of new users. They upgraded their systems and the problems are solved, so Kraken is my exchange of choice and i recommend them if you don't need that many currency pairs.

Same situation i am facing, i am trying since a month to get my account verified to be able to buy siacoins but despite several times i submit my ID card pics for verifications, my account is still unverified :/ WTH i open support ticket and they don't even bother to reply, pathetic services, i will not recommend poloniex to submit your funds other wise you will finish up locking all your funds as you cannot withdrawal it until your account verified.

It's my 1st time to make an account on Poleniex and i'm having also the same problem with verification!
Hoping it gets verified after a matter of week because Bittrex is now becoming also suspicious!

Verification issues on creating a new account maybe are caused by resident or VPN services. Or did poloniex change signup procedures? Also look to spam/junk folder on your email account. As I signed up account, I got verification link one second later. My answer only aimes to OP, not to ID verification process.

Business models change. Its the mindset that stays

Its not too long ago Polo has been unbeatable out of its 1st place in trading exchanges. I cant understand Tristian how he could have managed to get the business down. Damn it, you were having a reliable company that everybody loved, rocking it big time and now everyone hates. Especially when it doesnt cost that much to maintain the rocking position. As a business owner, I am rolling my eyes over how could someone fuck up so much. I dont have to go over details, u all know how things got started when the trollbox got removed, lol... "we need more ppl to cover the support shit" .. muhahaha

Fucking funny to get your 100M business screwed coz u wanna save 10k. Jeezus Tristian... I remember the times you were replying the support tickets and were trying so hard to build da biz and now u just let it go to competitors. Anyway, your business, just cant understand how a business person can sacrifice those huge money opportunities for a few support staff bucks..

As for the verification, actually its quite fucked up, I have been trying to get into the list to get approved and even that is way to complicated! Its been taking two days just to get a chance to try to verify.

Ya all make your own conclusion out of that..

Is there any way to use your phone webcam to get the verification documents submitted? Or do you really need a webcam on your PC?

Kraken and Bittrex don't do margin trading with leverage. I want to trade bitcoin using bitcoin.

Im having issues with Poloniex. I signed up 3 weeks ago and still havent had my account verified. I have contacted them and still nothing. I really want to trade on there exchange but want to make sure all the verification process has been accepted, anybody else had issues with this?

I wouldn't really recommend trading at poloniex right now, bittrex would be a much better option you are willing to get verified anyways. The fact is that getting verified on poloniex is really no guarantee for you to have no issues with their site, every single day there is always a new complaint about withdrawals and deposits. It's a headache if you ever get hit by that kind of issues.

But yes, this is a very common issue. They are an undermanned company, not sure why they still haven't gotten any new staff to do these easy jobs yet even though they're making tens of thousands of dollars off fees every single day. It is quite common for verification to go on for more than 1-2 months without responses.

All you can do is wait it out, or find another exchange that is much more reliable(kraken, bittrex, etc., you can do your own reserach).

So you haven't yet deposited anything onto the site right? You just want to make sure that everything is in order with your account before you deposit anything? If yes, then i have to commend you for using your brains. A lot of people deposit a large amount blindly and when their account gets limited they can do very little.

Yes, this is a very very common issue with exchanges these days, approving verified user accounts. Poloniex in particular is absolutely disgustingly slow on the matter, i've seen people that have waited for months to just level up their account one tier to withdraw more on a daily basis.

Don't expect much from their support honestly. All you can do is submit some tickets, hope that they can get onto your account verification faster.

I like bitmex dont get be wrong just seeing what else is out there with less fees. I dont like bitfiniex and havent tried kraken yet. I dont like how bitmex charges you transaction fees every 8 hours if you leave the order open. Starts adding up if you leave it running for a few weeks. Also if you want to scalp small trades then its a waste of time because of the fees, you dont end up with much. Just wondering if there was something out there that was nearly as good but without the hefty fees.

What's wrong with Bitmex? I've recently started trading there and I'm a big fan so far. Pretty thick order books, advanced order types, responsive support. I'm impressed so far.

What are you looking for, exactly? Poloniex operates out of the US and serves US customers without a license, and they only offer USDT (risk exposure to Bitfinex). Bitfinex is apparently starting to have a support backlog resembling Poloniex now, and they have been blacklisted by the fiat banking system since early this year (not a good sign if you ask me). Plus, the margin available on Bitfinex is pretty limited. There's Kraken, but it has terrible, glitchy trade engine.

The competition seemed to come down to Okcoin futures and Bitmex. Bitmex has better liquidity... and they just feel less scammy to me. I miss 1Broker's BTCUSD market; they are supposedly launching 1Fox to replace it by the end of Q3....

Maintain Social Distance, Stay safe.

I just heard that poloniex is also worst support or nearly the same as yobit exchange site.. and i think better to keep contacting them about your issue if there are still not confirm you account in 1 week better to moveon to other exchange site.. just like said bittrex is much more alternative that i think much safier than poloniex.. just don't forget to use the 2fa to be safe of your coins..
you can also try yobit i think they don't need the verification and you can instantly trade with them but the support also worst the same as poloniex..

Poloniex support really have a bad images right now. Until today, I think there are still lots of unresolved tickets in which some are pending for months now.

Anyhow if you want to start trading at Poloniex, you don't need verifications (except for usual IP detection via email). Verifications is for withdrawal limit purposes only and if the trade amount involved is not that much, you can stick for the basic limit for now.

Im currently using Bittrex and Bitmex as my two main exchanges. Im finding Bitmex pretty expensive so keen to look at Poloniex as another option for margin trading. Do you have any other suggestions for a good exchange for margin trading?

I have done it some months ago, and waited so long that I forgot about it. then suddenly I received information that it's passed.

It took, if I remember well, some thing like 2 months or so.

It's disastrous that they can not hire more people to do this.
