Title: Bitcoin converter with more data sources?
Post by: Kakmakr on April 19, 2018, 07:24:49 AM
Ok, so I use http://preev.com/ as my default Bitcoin Converter to determine the price, but it has a very limited data source. You can only use, Bitfinex / Bitstamp / Kraken / LocalBitcoins as data sources.

Is there a Bitcoin converter where I can add as many data sources as I want? < more configurable? > I currently have to browse to several other exchanges to get a better indication of what the average price is for Bitcoin. < It should also allow me to add my local exchange >

Any ideas?

Preev.com is pretty basic site, meant for people who only care about the few exchanges rather than technical details and such.

I quite often use Coingecko (https://www.coingecko.com/en) for most cryptos, as it features 1673 coins and 105 exchanges currently.
It also has mining calculator, features technical details, a summary about the coin, information about the github commits (developer details).

So far this is the most advanced source of information of this type that i know of. I guess that this is what you were looking for?

To state the obvious: that's what https://bitcoinaverage.com/en/bitcoin-price/btc-to-usd is for, but you'll have to do the math by yourself. I stopped using preev.com a long time ago.

Ah, thanks for this one, I have not seen this one before. I just love the Currency Markets option, because it gives you a overview of multiple markets and their prices on one page. So you can see where most of the pumping and dumping are coming from.  ;D

Just a pity you cannot add your own exchange as a source or is that available when you register? <Think I will have to experiment a bit more.>

Your best choices are, visit this site https://cryptowat.ch (https://cryptowat.ch) [you can get a price for Bitcoin from more than 15 exchange sites] then use calculator to hold the calculations manually.
I remember that there is a tool that performs this process by calculating the price of 8 exchange sites [I will update this when I remember it]

Ah, How did I miss this GEM  ???

This is exactly what I was looking for and it also shows the other Alt coins that are hosted on the exchange and then you can click on that and it will drill down deeper.

I like the Home page, where you can get a overview of lots of coins and the price on several exchanges on one page. ^nice^

The Premium subscription has some unique features. ^smile^
