Interesting. I've changed the platform so that it attempts to connect to the plain WebSocket first and then falls back to socket.io. The normal WebSocket tends to disconnect a few times when first trying to connect (during high-traffic times). I am transparently reconnecting to that protocol each time it closes, but eventually I am having it connect to the socket.io endpoint.

Now, I'm really not sure what the socket.io does when it reconnects, but I think there shouldn't be multiple messages coming across the normal WebSocket, since I close old connections before attempting to open new ones.

Are you 100% sure that the messages coming across are duplicates?

I'm 100% sure. After these "reconnects" I get each trade multiple times with exact time and volume. I could make a screenshot but I doubt it can help.
Maybe it's something opera-related as I tried another PC with Opera and it still ends up in getting duplicate trades.

There's a full log when it started to get three exact trades and stopped to get any shortly after that.

Yesterday I noticed a problem when using this service.
When I reload the page it seems to connect properly.
But after some time it tries to reload depth table

Code:

18:05:42 > Loading depth of market table.

18:05:42 > Opening streaming data connection.

And then (as far as I understood) it opens another socket connection to the ticker so I get each trade twice and even three times.

I'm using Opera 12.14.
Thanks.

I don't know if anybody told you, but when there's a selloff or rally caused by one big buy or sell, the two upper lines in the buy and bid columns seems to be stuck, while the rest of the lines updates. If you haven't got a report of it yet, I will try to make a screenshot the next time i see it.

Are you talking about when the order book is grouped by price?

I've noticed that also, and it corrects itself once a new ticker message comes in to update the inner bid and ask values.

Yes, when it's grouped by price. Ie. the normal view with Buying colum to the left, and Selling column to the right. When there's a selloff, it seems like the two uppermost lines on the buy-side doesn't update to reflect the selloff - but Time & Sales column is updated correctly.

I'm having an issue getting the HTML5 Canvas to display in any of my browsers on OS X 10.8.3

When I originally opened the site, I scrolled in with my touchpad and it eventually went out of scope and I couldn't get it back.

So far I've tried:

Double-clicking (reset) no change.
I've also tried clearing my cache in all browsers

Any idea what the issue might be?

I've got it working in Firefox, and moving my scroll wheel up scrolls in, but I can't scroll back out (OS X Natural Scrolling enabled) -- but if I switch it works in Firefox, but no change in Safari in Chrome.

Also some weird output:

Hi, speaking about mtgox socket.io api usual problems during high load.

Is it possible to implement that your server provides not only orderbook data but also broadcasts depth, ticker and trades channels to your clients?

In this case your server can take all of your clients load and in general this would be correct approach, while it definitly will help unload mtgox server.

What is your opinion?

I have been thinking about this particular problem for months, and I might provide this type of solution in the future.

I have some good news Clark, I received an update from the Mt. Gox support, and they sent me the following messages regarding the hard limit polling issue, which is causing much of the market depth's order book to be missing. They said you should use "data.mtgox.com" instead of "mtgox.com" for calling the API, and that you should contact Mt. Gox at support if you have any further inquiries on how to fix this:

I had switched to the data.mtgox.com source soon after it was announced. But at that time, the /full wasn't allowing me to poll. However, it is up and running at this time will the full order book.

Thanks for the detective work.

I think hiring 1 super intelligent and helpful support desk worker at MtGox would be a good idea. I think such a person could provide more help to the userbase then 4 non-skilled support representatives. Give him twice the current wage, and have 2 such persons instead of 4 providing the current support level.

Off-topic anyway, back to topic!

Noone else complains about this

Look back about 5 posts Wink

Short answer: Gox has placed restrictive limits on how often I can poll the full book (5 times per hour), so as to make it a little more work to get it. I will be creating a solution shortly.

Thanks, I will. BTW, Gox live pulls 45 MB a minute, but it's their own page of course, which is too much for my connection and must put a heavy load on their servers compared to your service.

I feel a bit uneasy complaining, as you provide an excellent service for free, but anyways, here goes:

I mentioned earlier that not all orders show up in your order book. I recently placed an ask order, and then I waited 10-15 secs but it still didn't show up in the orderbook, now waiting even more, perhaps 20-40 secs, I see it show up. How frequently do you fetch or receive this data ?

I thought the intention was to have orderbook changes show up as quickly as possible ? Thanks.

According to bitcoinity.org there was no lag at the time that this happened.

The real-time data comes directly from MtGox. There have been other posts complaining about the lag in the socket.io stream.

The only data I fetch concerning the order book is the snapshot from MtGox that gets delivered shortly after the page loads. There is a cache time on MtGox and a cache time on my server, so that I don't poll too often (and get blocked).

There has been a problem with your page for me since the 7'th. :
Orderbook loads only partially with an equally small number of around 1100 buy and 1100 asks. Last trade, highest buy, lowest sell never updates (no connected message in the console) Huh

I'm using Firefox in Ubuntu. Noone else complains about this, so the problem must be with me, any suggestions as what to do?

Seventoes in #bitcoin suggested that they're moving averages, although I'm just wondering exactly what kind, over what period, etc.
