Title: [Mt. Gox Chart] Trying to get the best out of Gnuplot
Post by: razibuzouzou on May 19, 2013, 03:04:04 PM
Hi,
I hacked prof7bit's goxtool to ouput some data in a CSV file, then made a Gnuplot script to visualize them.
I'd be glad to get your inputs about it :)

Here are the last 7 hours :

And here is a graph with the history of this week :

Left side shows :
  • conversion rate
  • demand vs. offer ratio (basically, >1 hints that traders are in a buying mood)
  • transaction volumes
  • engine and socket lag

Right side shows :
  • order book evolution (gaps between asks and bids)
  • order book (not cumulative)

Greetings !

That is really interesting. Thanks for the reposting in higher resolution.

The demand vs offer ration sounds particularly interesting. Is it technically similar to any other indicators?

Will have to pay attention to that if you keep the charts up (and or is it elsewhere?)

Do you plan to put those charts on a website or something?

The other day i saw a screenshot somewhere (i don't remember) of a program (i don't remember what it is called) that showed a spectrograph of the price, essentially showing how big variations are in each frequencies over time. But it was almost just a decorative piece. A whole screen dedicated to that, with clear indications of the frequencies and amplitudes would be nice.

Hey,
After a week of pretty fun hacking, I am glad to announce : http://www.coinorama.net (http://www.coinorama.net)
It's still at a early stage of development, yet I hope it can be useful.
There are some limitations right now, hopefully it will be addressed in the following weeks.

When cumulative bid/ask is showed you should add a vertical line with the price movement, like mtgoxlive.com
Anyway very good site!

all those little services guys like you are get going add up to whole new crypto-economy. one day it will be a big economy. every contribution towards that earns my respect.
i read in another thread about a guy who was comparing the early pc days with the current early bitcoin days. they will be comparable in volume and impact in just a few more years.

Hi, thanks for the comment :)
I added the vertical line, the tooltip is buggy though... I'll fix that soon !
