probably this api changes are about performance issues. Less load to server when the standard request is cached for all instead of making a lot of different db requests.
I'm really disappointed with all the API changes...
It's extremely hard to get any descent historical data from bitstamp..
We used to be able to download transactions since a certain unixtimestamp, why isn't that available anymore? How can someone be confident about his/her historical transaction download?

Update: The funds finally arrived, but after 8 days instead of 1-2. My requests to Bitstamp support to investigate the cause of the delay have thus far gone unanswered. On the Mtgox timeline that puts us at approximately mid May.
Just an observation with regards to the pusher feed, it looks like it has changed since I last looked at it a few weeks ago, it appears the depth info has been modified.
Before we had:
data.amount_sum
data.amount
For each order update. I assume that amount_sum showed the total amount of volume at that depth, and the amount was what the last change was. Now the data.amount_sum part of each message has gone and we only have the amount.

It also appears the bitstamp home page is no longer updating the live orders. I'd be interested if anyone else has any idea what the data.amount currently stands for, it is the change at that price, or the new sum at that price? 
b) You are about to embark on a long, frustrating journey, my friend.
Sorry Clark, completely missed your post on that.
Glad it's not just me then who finds it confusing
Hello,
could you please either drop, encrypt or send the notifications of cash deposited or bitcoins withdrawn per bitmessage and not per plain email. Especially since it includes the physical address. I worry of drawing the attention of criminals.
Thank you,
Philipp
iirc bitmessage had security issues... could you please either drop, encrypt or send the notifications of cash deposited or bitcoins withdrawn per bitmessage and not per plain email. Especially since it includes the physical address. I worry of drawing the attention of criminals.

To the guy complaining about international transfers. My international transfers always take 7-10 work days, and I think it is due to my bank. On the other hand, SEPA is 2-3 days (unless it is a holiday or Saturday/Sunday).

As I can see it now after some questions and answers bitstamp managment and developers do not put the public orderbook and trades api on the top of the list of their priorities.
From my own experience with bitcoin-analytics.com project I can only confirm that in such quite complex projects with limited resources there are always everyday maintance, more urgent hardware stability and software stability issues which naturally take the highest priority before any other problems which are not essential for the main service.
In general it is understood but in the same time those issues need to be addressed early or later.

what with transaction api method?
This one current api method is not acceptable for production use.
How long do you think we will wait before moving our assets to other place?

Hi Hazek, apologies for asking this again but are we ok to make the socketio pusher.com feeds available from our own websites? I can completely understand if this is not something you would like us to do, since you are paying for that service.

Hi Hazek, many thanks for that, it is very much appreciated. No problem if there are no guarantees about it's availability.
We always aim to process bank withdrawal requests on the same or on the next business day, however from time to time due to the semi-automatic nature of our administrative process this takes a day or two more. We are not experiencing any general delays at the moment so if your transfer was processed, the bank wire order was submitted to our bank and it now depends on the banks how fast it will arrive. Bank's in Slovenia were closed yesterday and today due to a national holiday so if your request was processed after the cutoff time on Wednesday then it will not be sent forth until Monday. International wire transfers usually take 2 to 5 business days to arrive so please contact our support if your wire should take unusually longer to arrive.
Thanks for the response. With all due respect, it is hard to believe that this failure to send out the funds was an accident. I made the request on Monday, so if the withdrawals team had wanted to provide good service, they certainly could have made sure that the funds went out before the bank holiday on THURSDAY. Moreover, I was told at around 1pm on Wednesday that the funds had already been "sent to my bank account", a claim which does not seem to be corroborated by reality.
BTC-E sends out funds within 24 hours; Bitstamp takes at least 4-7 times as long. What message does this send to the world?
What message are you trying to send ? My SEPA-Withdrawals are usually there in a day or two. Now this week it took a bit longer. I'm waiting on my request from sunday. So whats the Fuzz all about ?

Well can you promise that you will let us know before you cut off the feed, if you decide to change?
I'll speak with our sys admin about it.
Hi i've requested an international wire transfer withdrawal last 10/19/2013 but the funds is still not showing on my account but it shows finished on my bitstamp account. Im starting to worry now since it already passed 3 to 5 working days from the date i requested it. I already sent a ticket to your customer support 11 hours ago and still waiting for reply.
I am experiencing a similar issue.
Comparing my experience with the other cases cited here, I have to say that Bitstamp's feet-dragging in processing international wire transfer withdrawals is strongly reminiscent of Mtgox in May of this year. We all know how that ended.
I submitted my most recent withdrawal request prior to start of business on Monday. By Wednesday still nothing had happened, so I complained. After this, they finally "processed" the withdrawal on Wednesday and told me that it was sent out - i.e. before the Slovenian banks closed on Thursday. However..... it is now Friday and the money still has not actually arrived. By comparison, past transfers all arrived the following business day.
Was it ever even sent out? Hard to know. Of course the funds could be stuck at the correspondence bank in New York (this can happen), but this is not something I can find out from my end. The Bitstamp team would have to follow up on their side. Unfortunately, to date there is no indication that they feel disposed to do this. This is the part that reminds me the most of Mtgox.

Hi hazek, is it technically and philisophically possible to provide one common parameter "since"? This parameter is widely used among exhanges now.
It is possible to filter trades to return only new trades, trades with tid > since.
If yes, can we expect it in the near future, if not just give a reason.
And one question about Pusher stream api interface. Is it free to use? And if yes will you add order id field into full orderbook respones?

I don't think any such changes to our API are planed at this time but I'll ask our sys admin to consider your suggestion.
Pusher stream is not officially supported by us so I don't think we will have them change how it works as we only use it to stream on our website.
Every transaction (dictionary) contains:
date - unix timestamp date and time
tid - transaction id
price - BTC price
amount - BTC amount
date - unix timestamp date and time
tid - transaction id
price - BTC price
amount - BTC amount
Hi, hazek, I have analyzed the trades response and found that there is no any trade_type (bid/ask) field.
We at bitcoin-analytics.com provide calculations and visualization separately for bids and asks trades.
mtgox and btce provide trade type in their api along as almost all chinese exchanges. Currently we have to assign trade type empirically. But we would prefer to use original exchange data for trade type.
I also analyzed Pusher interface trades stream and found that there is also no trade type field in a tade message.
Could it be possible to add this important field into trades http response and pusher trades stream messages?
