[OFFICIAL]Bitfinex.com first Bitcoin P2P lending platform for leverage trading

Active swaps is at $22 million (up from $20 million yesterday).  During the last bubble the swaps seemed to expand at a rate sufficient to keep the swap rate down to 0.2% (as some users respond fairly quickly to high swap rates by wiring in money).  On the other hand when demand falls, I haven't seen the money wired out as quickly.

No, During the last bubble,from mid November to mid January  FRR was from 0.3% to 0.7%
Check the charts!

November and December rate were over 1% per day.

They used the old annual rate back then, so the rate were over 365% +.

how does the notification feature for swaps work?
Do I get an e-mail notification if swap XYZ is repaid or do I just get a popup in the right corner of my screen (like in the exchange tab when an order is executed successfully)

Thank you

You'll receive an email. Useful way to keep track of spare funds that need re-offering.

Does break in one odd case though - normally if you have the "notify when taken" option turned on for a swap offer, it'll automatically also turn on the notification for when it's repaid, but it doesn't do that if the swap is taken as "unused" at first, and then converted into a position later. In that case it'll have notifications turned off unless you turn them back on, and then helpfully turn them off again at the point when it converts to a 'full' position, even if you turned it on previously.

But most of the time it's really helpful...

I'm adding them to http://www.bfxdata.com now, not a girl, but I'll add it anyway

Thank you. However, I find the lack of candlestick versions of the DRKUSD and DRKBTC charts disturbing.

Server story is that "The requested URL /bitfinexOrderbookCandlesDRKUSD.php was not found on this server."

(just a guess based on /bitfinexOrderbookCandlesBTCUSD.php)

Hadn't had the time to add it yet I will, but as bfxdata.com is a "hobby" I do in my spare time, I also have some other things to do beside changing my site. So be patient thought it be good to add stats as soon as possible so people can use them.

It's okay, we still love you.

It's okay, we still love you.

In order to further increase the quality of your trading experience we decided the following

Fees on the LTC/USD, LTC/BTC and DRK/BTC DRK/USD pairs will be taken to 0.1% for market takers and to 0% for market makers. Adding liquidity to our orderbook will then originate trades free of charge. This plan will be kept in place until further notice

We hope you will appreciate this and we wish you a great trading day

Regards,

Nice, hope we'll see some more depth in the LTC an DRK order books

Nice!
Will this come for other exchanges too? For example Bitfinex? :-)

Also, the two "Sell/Buy ratio" both say "24h". I guess one has a different timeframe. I like that indicator!

Oops Chart is was wrong of course, I intended to insert a bitfinex btcusd chart, messed up a bit clearly lol . All other data on the page is bitfinex, I will insert the correct chart. Top ratio chart displays last hour, label is wrong was wrong. Maybe I was a bit too fast in sharing the link to the new orderbook page. I thougt Ialready found most bugs, but clearly i still missed a few

Hey, you did label it as a sneak preview! :-)

I like it! Will it replace, or merge into the current view? Or will it stay separated?

Cheers!

when it's ready I will replace the current BTCUSD/LTCUSD and LTCBTC order books (http://www.bfxdata.com/bitfinexOrderbookBTCUSD.php) with this new one. Or would you prefer to keep the old order book pages over this new one?

Do you miss something in the new layout? see more bugs? let me know

I, personally, use bitcoincharts (for static) and bitcoinwisdom (dynamic) for my charts, and follow the bitstamp charts.
Until now, I used bfxdata for monitoring the swap rates.
I didn't update my charts and links for a while, I guess I should! :-)

I'd suggest you start your own thread on bfxdata. It's too good to be lost in here :-)
(Sorry if I missed an already existing such thread, please link!)

Really like that, particularly the two 24 and 1h buy/sell indicators.

[bjornw]

Really like that, particularly the two 24 and 1h buy/sell indicators.

I was quite pleased with them as well . I don't think other intervals will add much value, right? or would you find a 1 week or 1 month ratio chart a useful addition?

Personally I don't think a really long time scale is useful as there are so many variables in between. Its just a quick and nice way to gauge some degree of sentiment.

More or less how I figured it as well.

BTW I've just replaced the 'old' order book pages for BTCUSD, LTCUSD and LTCBTC with new pages. You can find them in the menu, or go to:

• http://www.bfxdata.com/orderbooks/btcusd.php
• http://www.bfxdata.com/orderbooks/ltcusd.php
• http://www.bfxdata.com/orderbooks/ltcbtc.php

The dark coin pages are for now as they were, because tradingview has not yet added them to their platform. I'll make something similar for DRK but with a less elegant price chart.

hope you'll find the new pages useful. If anyone sees a bug, let me know. If you have suggestions for improvements please also let me know and I might just implement it.

cheers Bjorn

Does anyone have any working BitFinex API authentication code? The docs are a bit vague, and my code (posted here: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/25835/bitfinex-api-call-returns-400-bad-request) always returns HTTP 400 Bad Request.

thanks
