http://blog.bitpay.com/2013/06/important-update-on-bitpay-exchange.htmlEffective immediately, BitPay has temporarily stopped using Mt. Gox for determining the exchange rate for our invoices.
The rate calculation that BitPay uses for each invoice is now as follows:
1. Pull the full Level II market depth, on the bid side, from multiple exchanges.
2. Merge the market depths into one Consolidated Level II table.
3. Calculate the blended clearing price for the amount of the invoice, assuming an auto-routing market sell order across all exchanges, with zero commission. So... who's the market price now?  But... but... that doesn't necessary imply BitPay isn't using Gox anymore at all, right? |

I was wondering: why would anyone set up a wall on 99.80, when there is no almost depth till 90? I'd say there might be a dumping round 2 on Bitstamp.
But it's strange. If those were goxcoins, why would they take such a high price difference? Or was cashing out via gox never intended at all and high rollers knew already, that they have to use another exchange? Well okay, they didn't buy at 114.48 and sold at 90 of course - it's something inbetween and maybe not that huge difference at all.
But it's all speculation..

who knows, campbx still at 106. I don't see a logical reason for this.
and BTCe at 106.7. I think that people are using bitstamp for exodus and not using other exchanges. Maybe because bitstamp is the most liquid of the rest exchanges. Bitstamp is known for fast and reliable deposit and withdrawal. panic buy high sell low?
Of course! Buy at 113 and sell at 99! They are geniuses)) You know what happened when people couldn't transfer USD via Dwolla anymore? They bought USD for their meaningless Bitcoins.  |

Sure.
Go into the margin section.
There you can see the remaining available long/short position.
Compare it to what it was 1-2 days ago and you can have a pretty good idea of the positions taken.
Of course there's always the possibility of people just leaving the exchange.
Very interesting, thanks. Is the available amount directly linked to available lendings or are those things seperated? Or: does the number change, if someone decides to stop lending his coins or fiat? |

The forced part in combination with falling prices made very clear, that it was now dead long position. Bitfinex (Bitstamp) now @ $103.50 and people are still leveraged long up to their ears. Good luck unloading.  But could you please explain, how you know, people go long/short and how many open positions there are?  |

Where do you trade these? And is this graph from there? https://btct.co/security - no out of the box charting, but you can try http://coinflow.co/. I'm a former gox user and now a bitstamp user. To be honest- I trade on Bitstamp because I'm not interested in the drama at Gox and I'm not interested in squeezing every last satoshi of profit out of every price swing. I have a feeling a large number of Bitstamp users feel the same. We will buy and sell when the price suits our interests, but the low volume is just fine. While Gox is $6 above stamp, it feels ephemeral- I'm more convinced it's someone manipulating the market into people raising their buy orders, just to dump on them big time. It's like a cycle. I'm more then happy to sit at $6 below in exchange for a calmer market.
This. Without a closed money loop between Gox and Bitstamp, it is what it is. And while a cheaper price means you get less $ for selling BTC, it also means you can buy more coins for your cash. The relative price change is more or less the same and the gap between those two isn't always like this. There were even times, where Bitstamp was higher valued. |

If you want real-time trade data the only thing we have going right now is a feed to #bitcoin-assets on IRC. ( http://bitcoin-assets.com/) I know at one point kakobrekla was looking into setting up a websockets feed, you might connect up and ask him how that's going. Very nice! Thanks! |

ASICMINER thought me one thing: if it reaches a new level, it seems to stay there. 0.80, 1.25, 2.50 and now 2.85. I'm very sad I didn't buy bASIC after reading the "news" or on the rise, but you'll never know where the top is, before you reach it. It yet has to show it's "no bubble" like AM. Fundamentals looking good though. But it's very nice to see more volume altogether. Share trading is fun, it's like getting double gain due to BTC/USD + BTC/share on top.  |

No. The state's Department of Financial Services (DFS) said Mitsubishi-UFJ moved billions of dollars through its New York branch between 2002 and 2007 for state and private entities in Iran, Sudan and Myanmar, including entities on the US Treasury's blacklist. It's not connected to Gox and the bank still seems to be fine. Edit: Japan is part of the United Nations, so it's not actually the US who is behind this. While they are probably the ones who pushed the sanctions, it's under UN's banner. |

my god this is bullish  A few posts back there is a quote that Gox broke the cashout API, so they were forced to shut it down. |

Wir haben zu viele Chips...? lol Ich will das nur mal in den Raum werfen als Vorschlag: Wie wäre es, die überschüssigen Chips zu verkaufen und davon Zollgebühren zu bezahlen? |

No, not sold - well, some of them YES, but obviously not so many. I think they were not only taken off the book, a lot of it may have left Gox for good... This kind of news (International wires to USA stop for 2 weeks) scares a lot a certain kind of people (pussies?), and they panic and just take their coins off Gox. Same thing happened when the dwolla thing. That's what I thought. There is still a huge amount of goxcoins sitting on 128-132 at Bitstamp, which appeared after the Dwolla incident. Things got really better compared to the first days and there is no reason to fear, because the holders showed patience in the past, but it's still to keep in mind that Bitstamp is kinda capped on smallish ralleys.  And it won't get better now. But whatever, Dwolla showed, how bad the market could have reacted to such news and it's still very stable. And if it holds under such pressure, the consequence is very bullish, when things settle down. |

Browser compatibility, load time, and limited dev time. Speaking of that. You said /api/tradeHistory is refreshed about every 10 minutes. It was some kind of xy-problem, so I rephrase: what's the best way to continiously fetch trade data on one or more assets and what are the limitations? Does /api/tradeHistory/SYMBOL has a 10 minute delay, too? |

Where does one find a chart like this???!
The charting software is called NinjaTrader which allows historical data import, but there is no out-of-the-box data-transformation yet. |

Facebook uses a persistant cookie to recognize the endpoint and shuts down the acccout (if enabled) till you confirm via the 2nd factor that it's actually a legit new machine. Google checks geo location and if it's way off, it proceeds with security questions. Via browser characteristics one can generate an almost unique fingerprint by using system fonts and plugins as input. Thus logically, an attacker could bruteforce your PIN and change your email address on file. You could create a delay between each failed login and double the delay duration for each additional fail. If you'd apply that on the normal login, someone evil could easily exploit the mechanism to lock someone else out, but I think for the PIN request it's fine anyway. And even a cap of a few seconds would kill brute force more or less. |
