Okay, say for an example you wanted to build your own bitcoin price ticker from scratch and not rely on other tickers how would you go about that? What variables would come in to play? How would you guage the price of the coin would you add multiple tickers together to get an average, or would it be standalone? I was always interested in this but could never get my head around how websites do their own price tickers.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

If you want to build your own website bitcoin market must have a large volume of transactions to ensure that price, otherwise can only refer to other trading platform Wink

I think most independent tickers aggregate the price from a number of sources .

Others just use one source.

You can make it as simple or as complicated as you wish.

What language are you intending to use?

Most exchanges have an API for getting the price. You just call that API and you get a number. Display it via HTML. Done.

You could use PHP to make a live ticker with API calls from Bitstamp or another source.
