Not very useful.
Hello,
Let me explain more about the fact that volume in different currency pair is similar .
Other exchanges have separate order books and they have one order book for BTCEUR, another for BTCUSD. Trades, pricing, depth is all independent.
However ANX has a sophisticated engine that streams in FX rates in real-time, and blends all FIAT currencies into a single order book. Orders placed in BTCEUR can match against orders placed in BTCUSD. It's based on a very fair algorithm that converts each existing order into the equivalent price for any incoming order. USD orders are settled in USD, and EUR in EUR.
Some exchanges have tried to do multi-currency by first converting orders into a common currency, which is terrible for the customer as they suffer FX slippage.
In the case of ANX a USD order rests in USD, and a EUR in EUR. If they match, both parties receive their native currency. So when you call "/api/2/{currency_pair}/money/trade/fetch" for different currency pairs, you are actually querying against a single order book.
The data is completely transparent - the "primary" flat tells you what is going on. If a EUR trade matches against a USD trade, the USD and EUR will both be reported in the history call with primary="true".
Most charting and analytics sites continue to think of ANX as just the same as the other sites, and just choose one of our currencies to report, which is unfortunate as it doesn't accurately reflect our trades and blended order book.
Yes, I already know that. The problem is, like you said, the representation. It's not useful and it doesn't look professional. It looks fake.
How is this documented in your API documentation? What are your plans to improve the situation?
