Title: bitcoincharts.com - limited historic data? Post by: phoxpup on May 27, 2013, 10:57:26 PM Has anyone noticed that bitcoincharts.com data only goes back a few days for btc-e?
for instance: http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/trades.csv?symbol=btceUSD&end=1369403858 Right now this query only gives just over 10,000 records when the normal max is a fixed 20,000. When repeating at later times, the list of records gets smaller and smaller as time goes by. Its like the system has a fixed memory, purging the older data as it goes. This seems strange to me since I didn't see that phenomenon when I was looking at MtGox data. I just recently switched my attention from MtGox to BTC-e. I suppose bitcoincharts.com may have changed their behavior while I was changing my focus, but that is only a hypothesis. Anyone out there have any insight into what is going on? I'm trying to get to historic data for analysis so I can "feed" a trading bot with optimal parameters. |
