I have a question, how do I find View Overall Returns for other currencies besides USD?


Just posted an update to github, v1.08.  This is a small update that primarily addresses the "View Overall Returns" page.  It is now tabbed to show all available Crypto returns.  I also added a function (at the bottom of this dropdown menu) to import older return History, in case you want to import your older return history from Bitfinex for tracking / stats reasons.

For the new Import function, just go to View Overall Returns -> Grab Return History From Bitfinex.  Then select the currency you want to import and select the date you want to use as the start date for your historical data.  Make sure to enter the start date in the format of YYYY-MM-DD EXACTLY (ex: 2017-09-19 for the date I'm posting this).  If you enter a long period of time, be prepared for this to take several minutes to run.  While its running, it will probably look like its stuck, but its not.  I ran mine from 2014-01-01 to stress test it and it took about 2 minutes to run, but this could vary a lot base on your server, how busy Bitfinex is, etc.  I'd suggest not going back too much earlier than that, as it may time out the script, but honestly Bitfinex isn't too much older than that, so it shouldn't be an issue...

To install this update, just back up your /inc/config.php, download the latest version from github, unzip and overwrite the existing files.  Then copy back your /inc/config.php and everything should work.  If you're updating from a version older than 1.07, you should be directed to an update process when you access the site.  If you were already on 1.07d+ you shouldn't need to go through the update process.
