Title: Mt. Gox screwing up yet again?
Post by: Nagle on August 05, 2011, 08:00:25 PM
Current price 10.1999, high bid 10.85, low ask 10.88, from BitcoinCharts,
What broke this time?

Looks like a problem with the market depth data making it from Mt. Gox to Bitcoincharts. The market depth data on Bitcoincharts is not changing, but the price is.

It looks like Bitcoincharts' market depth data has been stuck for at least 20 minutes, maybe longer. Bitcoincharts needs to post alarm messages when their data sources are stale.

No. market trade / market depth data from tradehill is also old - so its seems to be a problem at bitcoincharts.com

Mtgox market depth data live you find at https://mtgox.com/trade/history - Close Depth and Market Depth (rounded)

Nothing to do with Mt.Gox.  It's bitcoincharts.com and says so right on their front page (in bright yellow).  Here too:

While we are at it, there is no requirement that the price of the last execution be bounded by the current ask/bid spread.
