I've checked my implementation of their api and it looks good (as you can see on spike at sept 23 there's still more buy so it's not inverted).
Bad thing they are not proviing historical api.
Maybe there's just some bull, but they follow the price (but then price should be higher, not always lower)
Here's for comparsion:
- bitfinex https://i.imgur.com/WblU6k9.png balance - 30k sold
- huobi https://i.imgur.com/7NdLCgP.png balance - 41k sold
Very nice chart to visualise the BID/ASK volume!
I think we may be seeing arbitrage causing the higher bid volume.
And also seeing that not only big dumps are happening, but probably lots of market sells, and mainly only limit bids.
The overall downward price trend, it appears counter intuitive, but I think it may be caused by the bots on BTC-E, bots are mainly moved by market orders, limit orders they just sit next to.
