Topic: Real Time MtGox Order Book - page 6. (Read 26716 times)
hi clark. i stumbeld upon ur time & sales site a few days ago. tried it several times in the last days, but doesnt´t show anything. same with the new time & sales site. it says opening websocket, and about 10 sec later websocket closed.
my sierrachartfeed is running the whole time.
is there a regulation of users on ur site, or something? or some geoip thing? i am from germany.
or is it because i only use chrome for this and mtgoxlive and google wants me to open a gmailaccount andor browse other sites so they can track me

I've gone in and updated the code to be more careful about keeping the depth table honest. Some earlier versions seemed to let a series of quick trades get the depth table all out of whack (since the WebSocket sends deltas instead of absolute sizes at each price).
So you should see some 'Fixing depth table.' messages in the console when a ticker update comes in that disagrees with the current inside bids and asks.

Yes, for some reason all my websockets are down, and my live SierraChart feed stopped working too, right when the Mt. Gox prices crashed. The Mountain of Gox has fallen, and I am sad too 
Websockets are down. I am sad.
What would be really cool is a graphical representation of the order book, sort of like an equalizer on a stereo.
Others have already done this. I don't know the links right now, but you could search for them on the forum.

Clark, looks really nice!
One differency strikes me, though: you're ordering the asks the other way around than me.
I think having the lowest ask at the bottom makes sense: You have the bids coming down on the left and the asks going back up on the right. So it's shaped like a "U" with the lowest point of the U being where the action is.
So by looking at the last line, you can already tell what the lowest ask and highest bids are. With your ordering, I have to look at the last and the first line.. confuses the hell out of me. While that's probably because I'm used to my own ordering, I would still like to suggest you think about this and maybe change it.
I based my ordering on two things. First, I wanted to list all of the orders I got (up to 1000), and it would be really inconvenient to scroll all the way to the bottom to see the strike price. Second, I have only ever seen an order book listed with strike prices at the top (on professional trading software).
I'm glad you like it!
Some of the numbers in the "Sum" columns are white, while the rest are gray. Does that mean anything?
EDIT: Never mind, those are on the round price numbers 26,27 etc.

nice!
When I looked at the site, I thought I'm seeing my own python app.
very similar display of depth data.

Thanks for your work, Clark, it's really pretty cool.
The second installment of WebSockets-enabled MtGox market data is here:
http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/
Update: MtGox now broadcasts with socket.io, which provides increased compatibility and maintains real time data streaming.
You should be able to view the order book in real time, with all bid and ask entries posted. The price grouping feature in the Controls section allows you to view the size of all orders within the corresponding price range. You may select a few different intervals on which to group prices. The service is set to show up to 1000 entries on each side of the market.
There is a calculator at the top of the screen that allows you to specify how many BTC you want to sell or USD you want to spend, and it tells you what the estimated outcome of that trade would be (in a market order sense).
The slippage field is a measure of how much profit you lose by selling at the market. For instance if the inside bid is for 10.00 and I have 100 BTC to sell, I should make $1000, right? Wrong. You only make $1000 if there are 100 BTC on that inside bid. If not, you have experience slippage due to accepting lower prices for the BTC greater than the size of the inside bid.
Please enjoy, and remember to donate
It keeps me motivated.
