CoinTracking - Crypto Portfolio & Tax Management
Hey Stew,

I can tell you, why the price is a little bit higher than on BTC-E.
The thing is, that I do not monitor the LTC to USD price, but only the LTC to BTC price.

So the tool first converts the LTC price to BTC and then from BTC to USD.
In general, this has no great effect. However, it's currently quite possible that the LTC course has not yet adapted to the rapid increased BTC price.
But I think that will happen within 1-2 days.

As an alternative, you can watch the values in BTC instead of USD.

Best wishes,
Dario

Thanks Stew,

I think, I'll take the bitcoincharts API.
It has all important information about the XRP/BTC price.

Best wishes & a nice weekend.
Dario

Appreciate your time and effort with this awesome tool.

I did notice one tiny quirk when using LTC.
In the Balance screen, under "Purchase value of my coins" it is not reporting the correct LTC spot price.

On my account it shows $4.80, instead of the current BTC-e range of $4.22 - $4.25. (not sure if LTC has ever gone
to $4.80 on BTC-e)

I will send you an attachment via PM so you can see.

Thanks!

Hi Stewart,

First of all thank you for your praise.

Inserting new currencies is relatively complicated, since many locations have to be adjusted in the website.
However, on my to-do list is a great thing for which I'll worry about next.
It's about more real currencies at MY-BTC.
This wish came already by many users. It includes CAD $, AUS $, GBP, CHF and many other currencies.

To implement this currencies, I need to adjust a lot of things on the website, so I can install XRP as well in the same run.

I'll try to get back in the next two weeks.
But I can not promise it though :-)

You could help me by finding an API that offers a XRP to BTC course.
Cryptsy would be optimal, but they do not provide XRP. And Bitstamp offers XRP, but I could not find a course-ticker in their API for Ripple.

Once I have a working interface, I can start the work :-)

I wish you a nice evening and thank you.
Dario

Thanks for your prompt response. 

Here are some links that hopefully have what your need for the XRP to BTC api:

http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/rippleXRP.html 
https://ripplecharts.com/market/XRP/BTC:Bitstamp
https://ripplecharts.com/
http://www.rippleprice.com/  (USD price per ripple, matches bitstamp btc/xrp chart prices) 

Additional resources:
https://ripple.com/forum/index.php
http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/7573/where-can-i-find-how-much-one-xrp-ripple-unit-is-worth

Bitstamp Exchange seems to be the defacto price gauge for XRP at this time.

Thanks Dario!!!

What a wonderful tool this is to maintain my Crypto Portfolio.

Thank you so much!!!


Would it be possible to add XRP as a coin?  I know technically it is not, but it is collected and traded as such.

There is a decent API for Ripple to USD price, recognized as the standard for pricing:
http://www.rippleprice.com/

If there is anything I can do to help facilitate XRP to your list of coins,  please let me know.

Very happy to send you LTC donation your way, and would encourage others to please do the same
if they have not already.

Smiley

Keep up the good work!!

Stewart

I've checked it. Everything looks good.
Maybe it was just busy at this moment.

And here is the promised and just finished automatic Bitstamp API importer.
To be found on the Enter Coins page, like all other importers.
Please note that your MY-BTC account must be running in USD, because Bitstamp currently only trades in USD.

Two new little features:

  • The time period of the charts in the Dashboard and in the Statistics can now be adjusted. In addition, you can set a default time period under Settings
  • Moreover, now the active Auto-Importer are marked as enabled on the Enter Coins page

An Auto-Importer for Bitstamp will follow the next days.

The move to the new server was faster than planned.
In addition, the indexing of the database has been optimized.

The result is an acceleration of caching by a factor of 15-20.
A few hundred trades now be done in a few seconds rather than minutes.

Also, the loading speed of the diagrams has been increased dramatically.
Even with thousands of trades , the page now loads in under a second.

The calculation of the balance now also runs 15-20 times faster than before.

I am very happy and I hope you too :-)
Have fun while watching your coins !
Regards Dario

PS: Powerful servers cost money, and MY-BTC is free. If you use the page and you like it, please be so kind to donate to cover the rising costs.

Hi there,
due to the rising price of BTC in last days, many new users and especially many new trades have been added.
As a result, the current system is temporarily overloaded, causing the generation of the data takes longer than usual.
All other MY-BTC functions work perfectly, but a little slower.

I'll install in the next 1-2 weeks a new server, that only takes care of generating the data.
The future calculation should then be completed quickly again.

I will inform you as soon as there is something new.
See you soon
Dario

Could I also raise a feature request for other indexes rather than Mt GOX, maybe the Coindesk index which is an average of BTC-e, Bitstamp and CampBX?

This is exactly what I was after but would really love a GBP option rather than just USD/EUR Smiley

Thanks Smiley
OK, I will put it on my todo list.

pretty handy utility, i'm sick of using excel so i'll gladly give it a shot. Cryptsy support or the option to enter your own coin names would be nice though. Still pretty nifty tool.

Due to high demand, there is now a CSV Importer for LocalBitcoins.com
You can find it here: http://my-btc.info/transfer.php

Thanks to the user Benjamin for sending me test data for LocalBitcoins.
Many greetings. Dario

Useful site, but I wish I could easily edit how many coins I have at any given point -
I buy/sell lots of stock, either direct or on btc-tc or havelock, and I'm unsure how to account for any of that here at my-btc.info.
The simplest solution would be to enter the number of coins manually.
There is unfortunately no automatic entry for stocks.

However, you could enter the number of coins so that you have an overview of how much coins you have and how many are this value.
When your stock coins increrase or decrease in the future you need to update your ammout of coins in MY-BTC.
I know this is not exactly what you are looking for, but maybe it helps you anyway...
