Are you looking for existing graphs and charts or do you want the raw market data?

You can get market information directly from MtGox in JSON format via their web API. There is some documentation at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MtGox/API/HTTP/v1.

In your case, it sounds like you want the depth information:
https://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCUSD/depth

This information is up to date and should reflect the current state of the market. There is also more advanced functionality to place orders, get a continous stream of market updates, etc.

Unless you're writing code yourself you should probably look for some existing programs that use these data feeds. I write my own so I don't know what people tend to use.

Thank you ! I was exactly looking for the API actually ^^

Hello everyone, I would like to know if it is possible to see the last bids and asks from mtgox.
Not only the last one bid and the last one ask, but the 30 last, like for example you have at bitcoin-24.com (market bid and market ask table on homepage), you can actually see the current orders with the amount of BTC people want to sell/buy.
There is nothing like that on mtgox ? All I've found is the price of the last order, and the price of the best bid and the price of the best ask but without the amount of BTC for both.

Thank you Smiley

Edit : I could use a depth chart for this right ? But are they accurate and always up to date (in seconds) ?
