Title: Probably a newb questions on trading XCN (but applies to other alts)
Post by: vuduchyld on August 02, 2014, 07:36:48 PM
Was just looking at the BTer exchange.  They indicate 22BTC of volume in the last 24 hours.  It's fourth in volume.

But the bid-ask spread is HYOOOJ.  Bid is 7312 and ask is 8466...a whopping 15.76%.  Every time a trade takes place, the price is changing substantially.  

Is BTer volume reliable?  I have to wonder how this is possible.
