Hey guys! I'm proud to announce my first release of an app I've been writing for a bit. I present to you MtGosis, a small efficient utility I created to make trading on MtGox as painless as possible. It's very un-tested right now, so I'm dubbing it a beta and recommending that you don't point it at any high-value accounts. There shouldn't be anything it can damage, but I can't make any guarantees. The UI is quite obviously 'borrowed' from Bitcoinica, I think their website has a great layout for quick and simple trading. To download just check out http://stith.me/MtGosis/Please send any feedback my way in the form of email, a reply to this thread, or any other way you'd like to get a hold of me. Especially if you find anything wrong, I really want this thing to be stable.

Would you consider adding a Bitfloor trading option? The API is very similar

The REST API for order entry is similar. There is no websocket API tho.

I've tried programming for Windows, it's a nightmare.

seventoes As a mac user, thank you so much for this wonderful app! I was wondering if you are planning to open source it? I am a bit leary to enter my API credentials since they could be sent by the software anywhere. Please don't take this the wrong way It is just that we keep 5 figures on our mtgox account at all times Roberto

For more solid proof, if you have software like Little Snitch (which I love), you can verify 100% that the only thing this app connects to is socketio.mtgox.com, which is MtGox's streaming API interface. Also, for a bit more security the page I link to is on my personal site, which includes my full name, and my actual address is in the whois information for the domain. I would never do anything shady like that online, especially when connecting it to my real identity!

I have donated 1.76 BTC from aurumxchange. I will keep your name in mind since we are looking to develop a desktop/iphone app for our company where users can quickly check exchange rates, and perhaps even place an exchange order. Once we know WTF exactly we want to do with it, I will definitely contact you.

Looks like a useful application and a welcome addition to the Bitcoin ecosystem. Well done! On a side note, if anyone is interested in a multi-platform, multi-exchange version of this kind of functionality you may want to keep an eye on MultiBit in the next couple of months. We're currently working in collaboration with Xeiam on a project called XChange which provides a Java library (free, open source under MIT license) that is able to talk to multiple exchanges (both Bitcoin and fiat) and provide a simple developer API. Developers should think of it like JDBC for exchanges (no messing about with individual APIs and protocols like FIX, just a single clean API). Implementations in other mainstream languages are also in the pipeline but we're focusing on Java to get it off the ground. XChange is currently at alpha release (so no big announcement yet) and has the following feature set working in the v0.0.1 branch: MtGox: * get current bitcoin prices (both one-off and streaming over SocketIO) * log in and get account info (subject to providing credentials) Intersango: * get current bitcoin prices (one-off) Other popular Bitcoin exchanges will follow shortly, and the XChange library will be included into MultiBit to support seamless trading operations. This is currently scheduled for end of Q2 2012. For more information, see here: https://github.com/timmolter/XChange/wikiThe main developers are Tim Molter (Xeiam) - lead developer Gary Rowe (MultiBit) - collaborator

Apologies - no jacking intended. Just responding to some others concerns about getting this kind of functionality available on other platforms. It's too early for a proper announcement thread, probably next week would be better. Best of luck with the project - it's good to see this kind of work taking place. Keep it up :-)

hey, very cool - thanks & will send a donation next week, btw for newbs like me you need to use the MtGox Advanced API key creation option & the MtGosis Preferences are found at the top left of your screen, click MtGosis for the drop down menu when you have the app as your front open window - is there any way to have it permanently floating on top btw? It's really neat - my first time to use an API app like this
