Well, bitcoinity's depth charts have a track record of going slightly awry at times. I don't really know if someone has found out a reason for this, but the charts on Bitcoinwisdom seem to be a tad more reliable!

Good point. Stamp's direct order book looks very different.

Did I miss something over here? It looks to me that the bid and ask price is almost very close at 253 and 255. Or any particular period of time that you were seeing such a large bid/ask spread? Usually it's quite rare but most of the time it is due to low trading volume happening only at certain exchangers.

Looks like a glitch to me. Happens sometime to some exchanges, nothing to make big story about.

I was using bitcoinity for quite some time, but not anymore as I prefer to use bitcoinwisdom as they seem to be more accurate and have less issues.

Bitcoinity was never really that great.  I only liked it for the visualization of walls moving around and it lagged.

I guess it isn't so bad for people just getting into the game. Bitcoinity looks much easier and may very well be simpler to comprehend. Bitcoinwisdom looked pretty complicated in the first place, but I now prefer it, it just offers so much more and is better.

I don't like bitcoinwisdom because it's irritatingly slow in comparison to bitcoinity.

Is it really slow or are you just surprised not to see some trades at all? It's a feature that they do filter small trades below a certain value or combine them into one "trade" when reporting them.

They're using HTML5 canvas which is kind of laggy. It's usable but perhaps their FPS limit should be higher or something.

Well for me it works pretty well. Not dragging down the CPU performance or anything, There just isn't happening as much as on Bitcoinwisdom and others. Also, their last price position needs to update quicker on timeframe-changes.

Yep their site is updating too slow that's why i'm using bitcoinwisdom as it's almost realtime.
