Title: GLBSE's Market dept chart too easily made useless. Post by: Transisto on August 29, 2012, 02:29:38 AM All it take is an ASK for 1 share at 99999999BTC to completely destroy the dept chart usefulness.
Given the chart has ~800 pixels, by striping from the chart orders with prices 500% or 1/5 away from last trade, a worst case scenario would still allow 382 pixel of "useful" data (1/2 , 200%). Overall your charts would be much more useful and entertaining if scale was customizable. Also, I just began using GLBSE and the site has been unusually slow.

The chart is useless already because it displays depth at that price level, not total depth (not "stacked"). I can bid 0.05 BTC total for 0.5000001, 0.5000002, 0.5000003, etc. and not make a dent on the Market Depth chart if I want to manipulate the market. Or, I can overlap my bid with others to make a spike on Market Depth and incite panic.Given the chart has ~800 pixels, by striping from the chart orders with prices 500% or 1/5 away from last trade, a worst case scenario would still allow 382 pixel of "useful" data (1/2 , 200%).

One thing I am trading I am getting utterly annoyed with a bid for 100000 shares at 0.0000001 btc or something like that. Title: Re: GLBSE's Market dept chart too easily made useless.

The price chart show a little blob when you hover onto a trade.... Cute. :-\ Title: Re: GLBSE's Market dept chart too easily made useless.

Title: Re: GLBSE's Market dept chart too easily made useless. Post by: HorseRider on August 29, 2012, 05:15:01 AM it is interesting anyway. It forces everyone focus on the fundamental aspect of a share, not the bid/ask wall.
Title: Re: GLBSE's Market dept chart too easily made useless. Post by: Lucidize on August 29, 2012, 12:01:15 PM I have complained about this before, in another thread. I find it is a complete waste of space with the bids 10000@0.00001 or whatever they are.
The chart is useless when these bids appear. It could just be removed because I don't see the bids going anywhere. Title: Re: GLBSE's Market dept chart too easily made useless. Post by: Nefario on August 29, 2012, 12:54:09 PM It should at least be a bar chart then, not a line. So much fail it make me doubt their security. The price chart show a little blob when you hover onto a trade.... Cute. :-\ What has a JavaScript chart got to do with security? That's like saying the sites logo is off center a little, must mean they can be hacked. Anyway, a new version of charts will be live shortly after I get back to London on the 31st, a lot fast and I'm adding a slider which will allow you to specify a range of prices to show (eliminating the problem) And hovering over a trade to get the blob will give you the price/time.
