Hi Sampey,
Now that we seem to have a very stable release, and you now have all this spare time on your hands for feature requests
, I'd like to resurrect a point we were discussing previously...
I struggle keeping track of exactly what my trading or playing amount is in each market. By the time you have started with a ping buy and maybe a ping sell...then added a few additional pings along the way, you have many different orders and different balances waiting to be traded.
Could we add (or change) the individual market statistic tabs to show total market trading (or playing) amount. I think this should show as :
Main currency amount (BTC/LTC/XPM) (held for buy orders)
Coin amount (held for sell orders)
Currency held in live buy orders
Coin held in live sell orders
TOTAL of above
I won't requote everything, but these were the threads, my points and your answers....
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4522981https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4535614I don't think your answers that these values are already covered in the market stats page are totally right. I don't think that the amount of currency (BTC/LTC/XPM) on each market that is held, waiting to be placed on new PING Buy orders is recorded anywhere.
For instance, I have around the same amount "in play" on each market ATM, around 2-3 LTC. If we look at one market (GME/LTC) stats page it looks like this :

...so I would expect to be able to add some of these together to get around 2-3LTC - to show my amount in play for each market - but this is not possible. I think :
Currency amount (BTC/LTC/XPM held for buy orders) = (not recorded in stats)
Currency amount (coin amount held for sell orders) = TRADES BUY ? (although I calculate coin value to be about 0.047.., not 0.055..)
Currency held in live buy orders = TOTAL BUY
Currency held in live sell orders = TOTAL SELLThe reason I'm asking about this again is that its really important that we can keep track of the value of balances/trades in each market. Currently, if we see a drop (or rise) in our overall balance, its very difficult to see exactly where these changes have come from.I did look at getting this information from the main Balance data, but the problem with this is that BTC/LTC/XPM that is being held for PING Buys for a market is not listed against each market but is grouped under its own line (e.g. LTC).
Hope this all makes sense! Do you think we could have this data easily available to us ? Ultimately I'd love to see these market values dumped periodically in a log file so I can track them externally.
thanks
