New bitcoincharts.com is live!

[tcatm]

I just finished the redesign of http://bitcoincharts.com.

New features:
* large table of all markets
* more markets (bcmv2 will follow as soon as there are few more trades)
* larger charts that autoresize to fit the window
* market depth chart
* statistics for slush's pool
* ticker for #bitcoin-otc
* completely incompatible with Internet Explorer
* all ads are within containers with class=ad so you can hide them easily with .ad { display: none }

Thanks for your donations!

Damn impressive.

* market depth chart

* larger charts that autoresize to fit the window

I like!  One question ... what does the "Enlarge" checkbox do then?

[mndrix]

* ticker for #bitcoin-otc

The site looks great.  You're very talented.  Incidentally, I've wanted this sort of OTC info for a while.  A small donation is on the way.

One question: The About page says Volume is "Todays trade volume"  Is that the current date in GMT or the preceding 24 hours?

[tcatm]

Enlarge checkbox makes technical indicators larger.

Trade volume is reset at midnight UTC. I want to switch to "last 24 hours" but I don't know how to calculate the "previous close" and "open" for that yet.

This...is really impressive. Very, very good work. I'm excited to dig into it tomorrow when I have some spare time and see what I can learn.

[Cryptoman]

Splendid rework of the site!  I know Bitcoin is in good hands when I see stuff like this.  Donation sent.

[wb3]

Ditto,

 Since my "NET" worth is only 0.10, I gave you a small donation. But very nice work.

[bitcoinex]

Beautiful!

Tcatm is the css jedi master.

[Cusipzzz]

really amazing job, love it!

Is it just me, or are the prices no longer updating? I'm seeing MtGox USD/LR prices from 03:48:25 UTC on the main page, and the markets and charts pages. (Bitcoin monitor is showing several trades since then).

Other than than, I'm liking the new look a lot. Market depth is fantastic, the chart on the markets page is brilliant, and the main page layout is superb.

mtgox is changing servers and the DNS hasn't updated yet. I hope this will fix itself within a few hours

Ah, I actually knew that but for some reason hadn't made the connection. Looks like it's fixed now, anyway. And thanks again for a fantastic resource!

[sandos]

Best site for bitcoin graphs, thats for sure.  I never used it before, but I will know!

[FooDSt4mP]

* completely incompatible with Internet Explorer

Best feature ever.

[Hal]

I love that it works on my iPad - a lot of charting services don't.

In the top right corner, the difficulty value is overwritten by the current Dte and time.

I really agree, F#$%@$% IE

Chrome Opera or Firefox ftw lol

The new site is great.

Just one thing:

The MtGox order book is reduced significantly. It seems the order depth has been reduced from full order book to only a fraction.

Any idea why this is the case?

Full orderbook via websocket is broken (probably due to changing servers) so it falls back to the reduced orderbook available via HTTP

[S3052]

Thnaks.. understand it is difficult now that MtGox server was changed.

.. and I just soptted one other thing.

On the bitcoincharts.com chart section, I fail to be able to copy and save the images for my technical analysis. I can only post links, but that is suboptimal. Do you have the same issue?

Thanks for taking care.

That's my hotlink prevention. I found a lot of sites hotlinking the charts and while the engine is very efficient I still didn't like the server load. I'll disable it for now. When I enable it again someday, I'll make sure to include a "download this chart" link.

Btw: You can tweak the &width=xxx&height=yyy parametes for the chart if you prefer different sizes for your analysis:

Code:

[Grinder]

It would be nice if there was an estimate for when the next change in difficulty will be. I know you're short on space, but displaying it when hovering over the difficulty/estimated text would be enough. Getting an update on the estimate is almost always my reason for visiting your site.

[johnieeliang]

this is awsome man, thanks so much!

[kiba]

Look like bitcoinmarket data is just out.

[ColdHardMetal]

Any chance we could get shorter time frames than 15 minute candles?

1-min and 5-min intervals added

[ColdHardMetal]

Well that's pretty good service!

Thanks

I like your market depth charts.  They appear to be true histograms, unlike the one on Mt Gox.  However, I don't see any orders above 1.4, even though Mt Gox shows something like 20,000 currently.

Edit: It seems to be working now, 14 Apr 1500Z.

There's a race condition that causes only part of the histogram/data table to be displayed sometimes. It will be fixed soon.

[tcatm]

New features:
* list raw orderbook entries
* weighted prices and trade volume for markets for last 15min .. 1year
* summary page for each market

Comments? Missing features?

@tcatm
Again, congrats, this is fabulous.
There are two things that be also be very helpful.

The first one is adding weekly time fram for the charting tool. This would enable me to do a better longterm analysis, now that the bitcoin exchange is almost celebrating its first birthday (bitcoinmarket started in May 2010).

The second one is probably a bit more difficult, which is adding a comparison option of BTC vs. Gold Spot prices. We have talked this before, and I dont know how feasible this is.

Perhaps a coder can help out.

The benefit would be that the LAYMEN would immediately see that bitcoins are the #1 investment of all on the planet, even better as gold. (and also silver)

[tcatm]

weekly intervals: I'll add that soon, but I need to teach my SQL queries to know about weekstarts (same for months).

BTC vs. Gold is still on my todo, though low priority.

Another coder might really help, but I can't afford to pay one. I'm still looking for ways to fund development of bitcoincharts so I could spend a few weeks adding all those missing features fulltime.

Be happy to take on some of the workload...

[tcatm]

Weekly chart added. 2 hours of coding just to get the SQL query right :/

[S3052]

wow. Thanks so much.
one can easily underestimate the time it takes to execute "simple" additions.
