There's a 10,000 bid at 11.14 on the order books that's not showing up on the mxgox chart.

Yeah, by buying bitcoins.  The South is quaking as we speak.

Hmm - another one: 1412BTC sold for 6.6667GBP/BTC (about 11USD, google currently says: 10.9927216) at britcoin where the usual daily volume is less than a 100.

As predicted, that 'wall' fell quite quickly.  It's just a logical reaction to the buy/sell price point approaching the 'wall': why stick around at a higher price when you can see it'll fall below very soon.

It was a GTC order - Good 'Til Close  Wink

You can't win if you don't play. But you can't play if you lose all your chips. First I found bitcoin (BTC). Then I found something better, Monero (XMR). See GetMonero.org

I wasn't able to watch as the main wall disappeared - and the tradehistory on bitcoincharts only shows a very small window of trades.

I guess if you are looking not long afterwards, you can deduce from the 'recent trade volume' whether a particularly large order was filled.. but is there a way to look at the trade history more directly?

Well obviously that's because mtgoxlive changed the scale to be the same for BTC/USD sides of the graph. Before, even when BID side was 3 times higher than the ASK side, they displayed the same height. Now it's adjusted to reflect the actual ratio and you don't have to calculate yourself.

Yeh, I was shocked at first, too, but it's the same graph, different scale.


Kinda cheap tactics if you ask me, but hey, there's suckers born every day, amirite?

Yes, now it is much better than before (bid side was plotted in BTC and ask side was plotted USD).  Now the asks are also plotted in BTC (the ask axis labels are still in USD). 

My preferred option would be to see both sides plotted and labeled in USD (with the BTC amounts in the mouseovers).  Then one can see how much USD can be cashed in/out to reach a price point, at a glance and without using mouseovers.

Well, now that both bid and ask are scaled you have BTC and USD axes scaled properly. That means 1000 BTC equals 11000 USD (or whatever the current rate is). Just take a closer look. You can read left graph from right axis and vice versa.
