Just because a random person decides to sell 0.94 BTC at 3 bucks doesn't mean that's the market price

I was trying to look at the market depth on their site minutes/seconds before it happened. The bid side seemed to be screwed.

Oops, sorry guys.  I accidentally checked "Skip orders and to go $2.99" for my last buy.

Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

So how does the system decide who the lucky buyer is?  Shouldn't it be the person with the highest offer?  Does the system split the difference between a buyer that is offering higher than the bidder?

I hope they clean up the data. numbers like that really make analyzing the charts annoying.

Yes, for those who wonder - a proper order book fills at the best bid/offer. "Stub" bids and offers way off the market price don't get priority if there is something resting higher or lower. I sincerely doubt there was nothing between 15.50 and 3.00. Has to be some kind of problem we don't know the details about yet.

We don't need this, honestly.

So I tried to sell .1 BTC at a rate of $1/btc ($0.10 total).  The system forced me to sell at the lowest offer, not what I specified.

That means something other than a customer mistake was made in the system.

I was really hoping to screw with some people too....

EDIT: No, I wasn't the person that did the $2.99 trade.  You can't do that from what I explained above anyway.  Give it a try if you want.  You will see the same thing.

That's some bullshit right there. I'm scrubbing all my data and using TradeHill numbers from the 19th on forward.

Regrettably, I have to agree. Seems the order book isn't being processed in a sane manner.

WTF is going on?!

F**king sick of this.

I once filled in a $16.2 order and it wasn't filled AT ALL when the price was $16.6 and now some idiot gets a $3 order filled. WTF!  Angry
