BitFloor has such low volume though.  If I wanted to cash out 1000 BTC, I'd be SOL.
You'd just have to put up a wall and wait a day or two for people to sell in to it.

I just wish you would open an account at US Bank, I have no Chase banks in my state even   Angry

I do have a US Bank right across the street from my office though.  For small purchases it is easier to WU money to people in -OTC and pay the ~%8 fee, just for convenience.

Just wanted to say that BitFloor.com worked out really well.  Transferred via PopMoney, and was able to buy up some BTC with no stress.

Thanks, I will be using this again.

Looks like ING P2P does not work for $ withdrawals from Bitfloor; is this correct or did I miss something?

That is correct. We only offer ACH withdraws.

BitFloor recently passed CryptoXChange to move from #7 to #6 on the 30-day BTC/USD volume list at bitcoincharts.com. Congratulations BitFloor. Keep on Rockin'!

that is why I was pointing out that it is important to see and be able to analyze the picture in a wider perspective before making any conclusions and decisions.

@genuise I don't have enough BTC for it to matter, really.

then I am afraid there little chance to get arbitrage profits, because on small volumes generally transaction/withdraw fees will eat all of them

That is exactly what happened to goat.

It is a surprize for me. Can you give any details?

It is long, but very interesting: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bot-74291

Thank you, it is really educative Smiley

Most fees are percentage-based, so that is fine. I also want to see bitfloor succeed, and bringing it more volume is one way I can do that.

I wonder if I can make a simple bot which holds USD on one exchange e.g. MtGox and holds BTC on BitFloor, then continually updates BitFloor asks to be MtGox + MtGox Fee + .05. Would that result in any trades, or are the markets generally too close together?

take a look at bitcoin-analytics.com/#arbitrage

you should wait until data is fully loaded and arbitrage table is displayed
then it is possibile to analyze arbitrage apportunities depending on BTC volume you consider to trade
What is the MtGox fee per trade?

I would read this before you go all gungho https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bot-74291
Well my system would be simpler - keep BitFloor asks where they would be profitable. So when the gox bids go up, the bot adjusts BitFloor asks. Then, when a trade is made on BitFloor, the bot makes a trade on gox.

In that case it could be occasionally profitable to arb MtGox and bitfloor.
Off to the IDE!

it depends on volume of transactions in BTC for 100 and 1000 the situation can be significantly different.

for example almost all exchanges  have 100 on bid and ask sisds, so it is in principla possible to execute such transactions.

But when you filter 1000 BTC volume for exmpale currently bitfloor does not have enough volume on bid side and your BTC will not be bought, you will not close the transation pair.
