The new look is great, API is appreciated too (haven't looked into it yet, but will do soon).

I've almost made a wrong trade twice due to the following mixup:



I see "ASK 0.622" and instinctively go to put my own ASK there, type in the qty and price, and then realize that the button next to it is labeled "BUY", which is not exactly what I wanted to do. Maybe removing the words "ASK" and "BID" or making them much smaller than "BUY" and "SELL" would help? On Bitcoinica, for example, the BUY and SELL buttons are big enough that they draw attention first and there's no confusion.

I did the same thing.

As did I. Tongue
glad to see I'm notalone here...

@Nefario - I read somewhere that there was no fee to issue a sub-asset, but I just issued some new assets and was charged a fee for the sub assets?  Has this changed?  I don't see a link to the fee schedule anywhere on the site? (I could be blind.. lol)

Hi Teek,
All you're fees can be seen here https://us.glbse.com/portfolio/fees after logging in.
That link shows from the asset page when logged in.

Regarding fees for sub-assets there has always been fees for them, and we've never said any different.

It also shows you the fee you will be charged right above the "Create" button when creating an asset.

Fee

You will be charged 8.0BTC to create this security, this charge is not refundable.

tested us.glbse. i live in the US. it is a little fast the biggest improvement if that there are no large spikes.

For users on the American continent there is now https://us.glbse.com

If you're based in the US this will be about 3-5 times faster than glbse.com

The servers are located in the US?

Re-posting from the other 2.1 thread ...

So ... at the risk of being perceived an insistant bloke ... whare's mah .csv history download ?

More seriously: this would be a *really* useful feature: my /portfolio page is
very long by now and is getting close to impossible to process by eyballs.

Another - probably simpler to implement - equivalent feature would be to have
the portfolio API call return *everything* that is visible in the /portfolio page.

Right now it only returns current stuff, not the whole history, whereas the
/portfolio page returns everything.

Maybe with an option ... something like:

https://glbse.com/api/portfolio/ID/KEY?opt=all

Right now, I am reduced to perl-parse the HTML output
of the /portfolio page ... giant PITA.

Thanks for considering the suggestions.

Hey znort987, I'll be adding csv for account details (buys/sells/deposits/withdrawals/transfers etc).

What would you think would be the best way to have this? By the month?

For the API we'll add a history function, where you can pull all your histories.

The new look is great, API is appreciated too (haven't looked into it yet, but will do soon).

I've almost made a wrong trade twice due to the following mixup:



I see "ASK 0.622" and instinctively go to put my own ASK there, type in the qty and price, and then realize that the button next to it is labeled "BUY", which is not exactly what I wanted to do.

That's not really going to happen, they SHOULD be done but who's going to bother (unless there is money in it), so until then we'll try our best to do so.


GLBSE has a fairly well documented and easy to use API now, documentation here:
https://glbse.com/info/api

It covers live streaming, buy/sell, poprtfolio and market data.


You think buy/sell would be improved by sizing down the bid/ask text? I was wondering on how to reduce confusion on this.

Hmm.

Code:
curl -kG https://glbse.com/api/BFLS/TICKER
gets me a "Not Found".
Code:
curl -kG https://glbse.com/api/asset/BFLS
gets me "could not connect to host". Am I using the wrong URL?

EDIT: Ah, second one works now. Must have just timed out that once.

Long-term, it'd be great for users to have their own "favorites" stocks they like to track, which could be set up through their preference settings.  When GLBSE gets to be 300-400 stocks large, you want a way for users to visually pare that back a bit to just assets they're interested in.

A real-time streaming ticker would be awesome at some point, but that might be asking too much at this stage.  Smiley

IMO all of these suggestions should be done by 3rd parties and not GLBSE.  Does anyone go to nyse.com to track the stocks they are interested?

That's not really going to happen, they SHOULD be done but who's going to bother (unless there is money in it), so until then we'll try our best to do so.


GLBSE has a fairly well documented and easy to use API now, documentation here:

It covers live streaming, buy/sell, poprtfolio and market data.

The new look is great, API is appreciated too (haven't looked into it yet, but will do soon).

I've almost made a wrong trade twice due to the following mixup:



I see "ASK 0.622" and instinctively go to put my own ASK there, type in the qty and price, and then realize that the button next to it is labeled "BUY", which is not exactly what I wanted to do. Maybe removing the words "ASK" and "BID" or making them much smaller than "BUY" and "SELL" would help? On Bitcoinica, for example, the BUY and SELL buttons are big enough that they draw attention first and there's no confusion.

I did the same thing.

No, but the NYSE isn't the custodian of everybody's assets, either.

A yahoo/google finance style site would be better considering there is more than one (and hopefully more) bitcoin denominated security exchange.
