1．Our Support Status for BitMEX
You can check the types of files supported by cryptact on the "Supported Exchanges & Blockchains" page. Please click on the relevant exchange to view the details.
If the uploaded file contains transaction details that can be interpreted by cryptact, the data will be automatically reflected. However, due to the specifications of certain exchanges, some files may lack transaction histories or contain unclear information, making automatic processing impossible. In such cases, if the transaction history is not supported via API or file upload, we kindly ask you to upload the data using a Custom File.

About BitMEX's Products
All the products listed on BitMEX's exchanges are Bitcoin-denominated CFDs (Contract for Difference). Each transaction is settled and closed with Bitcoin. Because of this cryptact determines the profit and loss for each closed contract position by its impact (increase or decrease) on account margin balances. Profit/Loss calculations are possible in this manner but the products themselves (i.e. BitMEX's perpetual futures) will not show up in your ledger summary.
Each increase in your account margin balance is treated as an increase where profit/loss is realized at the point of the transaction (similar to an airdrop or bonus). Decreases are calculated through a disposal at zero price (sell at zero).

BitMEX Timestamps
When you download files from BitMEX both the timezone and timestamp format are set to your system locale. Because it is vital that correct timestamps be reflected for BitMEX transactions (since each margin account increase/decrease relies on lookup prices), please ensure that your set you timezone correctly in the upload dialog when uploading your files.
