Adding an "Interest Paid" column for each loan closed, would help for accountability. And having those details reflect in History as "Closed Offers".
We should have a loans history, to be able to check how much time each of them did last, how much interest each of them generated, etc.

Has anyone had any experience of accessing the API via C++. I have zero experience with js or python, but am fine with C++ and would like to access the data using the API? Even some code to literally print the bid and ask price would be a tremendously helpful starting point for me Thanks Further to my previous question, what is the acceptable frequency limit for API requests to check price etc.? Thanks Mark

+1 I was wondering the same thing, I want to add some real time features to my website, but I don't know how often I can poll the api. once a second? once a minute? Maybe Giancarlo can shed some light on this.

Not that I know of, that was the whole reason why I built it. All data comes from the bitfinex api

If you need to get just the data (as opposed to do trading via the API): getting data is easy, since it is just a HTTP request. You get a string as response, which is formatted in JSON format. You can try out retrieving data from the API just with the "wget" command of unix. JSON format is human readable. Not sure if C++ is the most clever choice, since there aren't so much easy to use libraries for doing this kind of stuff (i.e. pulling some web page via HTTPS and parsing a JSON string). Chances are that you'll end up writing hundreds of LOC for things you can do in other languages with just 10 lines of code. If you're familiar with C++, maybe you should consider to learn a bit Java, since Java is also a compiled and statically typed OO language, but offers an abundance of ready-to use libraries and tutorials. (Unless of course you have other reasons for using C++ beyond just familiarity)

I have developed a PHP class for accessing Bitfinex lending API. Note that not all type of requests (from https://www.bitfinex.com/pages/api) are implemented, But it should be intuitive and easy enough to add new methods if you know how to program in PHP. http://pastebin.com/VXMsBwXU

question about autolending @ flash return rate:are there any fees for using the autolend feature? are there any fees for using 'flash return rate'? also, how often is interest on these loans credited to my balance? if, for example, I lent money for 2 days but the borrower only uses these funds for 1 hour and then closes his position, do I get a full-day's interest (is the full-day's interest incorporated into the first position the borrower opens)? if I lend my money for 30 days, will the interest be automatically lent out even before that 30 day period is over? also I've noticed that sometimes I can borrow funds for a 30 day period, open and close a position within an hour, and on the liquidity swaps page it says I'm currently not borrowing anything, but I am still able to open another position seemingly with the same funds. does this mean that I have these funds available for the entire 30 day period and am paying interest, or are the funds re-loaned out in the market whenever I close my position? any answers to any questions are much appreciated! thanks! No additional fees for autolend/flash. You only pay fees for the time the funds are actually lent. As soon as it's closed/returned, no more fees are paid. A few days ago this was adjusted so that the first hour is always paid, even when the funds are returned after a minute. Fees are paid out at midnight. Ente

Hi all
I am new on the Bitfinex trading platform. I have been having problems logging in since I wired USD into the account and received notification of USD in it (since the day before).
I sent an email to support yesterday, but haven't received any replies yet.
Funny thing is, I could log on yesterday evening after 3 h of trying, but then am having the same issues today. Reseting the password does not help (and I think I found a bug here), an email gets sent to my account, but if you click on the reset link in the email it takes you to a page that again prompts you to reset your password. That then again sends an email to your inbox to again click on the link to reset password so you get stuck in a loop.
I hope it's not something I'm doing wrong, but as I have just transferred money in, I'm worried about not being able to access anything.
Has this happened to any of you?
Thanks in advance.
**update - I have since received an email with a new password, enabling me to log in. I think the password reset bug above may still need to be fixed, though. Otherwise, I'm a happy camper!**

Don't think that's possible. As far as I have figured out you can only get the total amount of open loans + the average rate of total loans opened at fixed rates. I don't think (correct me if i'm wrong) there is any option to get the total amount of borrow/lend at FRR.

Webserver has been truly awful, basically unusable, for about half an hour (or at least it seems that long). EDIT: And *pong* it's up and dandy now.
