Sometimes the price is not correct. See screenshot.
There are sales shown for 115.00, but the current price says 116.00.

So no more BitStamp support since the redesign?
I don't see it listed even in the fee list.

On the other hand it is mentioned in the FAQ.

But on https://www.bitinstant.com/ under "Transfer Funds" it is not listed as source neither  as destination.

Will it be back?

There is some bug in the order book chart: http://bitcoinity.org/markets/btce/USD

If I click the minus sign, the vertical scale goes from 0-100 to 0-15, when it should go to a larger scale. See images, before:

....


+ = Zoom In
- = Zoom Out

Seems to work ok for me.
It works OK now, but on the posted images it is obviously wrong.

The bottom image apparently has the y scale set to the "buy" (green) line (you can compare it to the upper image, the extreme point is in both on about 129,35 BTC (x-axis) and 15 (y-axis)), while "sell" (red) has much bigger values the the y-scale of 15 and is out of graph range (for example at the price of 131.0 BTC you can see in the upper image that the size is about 60-75).

In short: the code to determine the y range took the "green" value instead of the larger "red" value.

Hi!

The web pages (example below) show times among other info.
It appears the times are in UTC.

1.) Can you confirm that?

2.) Can you put this info on the web page itself? (maybe like a footnote: All times are in UTC)

3.) How about displaying in human friendly local timezone? Like for example http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/ and other web sites do.

Example URL: https://blockchain.info/address/1BPzcZhZoDypQ7mDWpiyBpAquyEnJ5bb7N

Is anyone else seeing this on mtgox, when doing a bitinstant transfer from mtgox?

Quote
When creating a ticket (for bitinstant.com) , in the second step the page says:
[I18N:copy_create_ticket_partner_click_to_valid]

It seems a translation text is missing, so the code is displayed.

I have english and the rest of the mtgox web page is displayed properly in english. Only on that page it seems a text is misisng/wrong.


To clarify, bitinstant.com redirects me to a mtgox page, where the amount to transfer is entered and a submit button is visible. This page is OK. After submitting that page, a new page appears (still on mtgox) that shows the above text and an OK and CANCEL button beneath it. The rest of the page (menus, headers, style...) is normal. Just the text in the center is wrong.

I reported an issue and got an email which had this at the bottom:

Follow this link to view the status of your case and add additional comments:
http://support.bitinstant.com/customer/portal/private/cases/5557


But that link just shows me the front page ( http://support.bitinstant.com/ )

I'm confused about that. Is it some transient error (is the same for several days now) that will "fix itself" in a while? Or is something really wrong?

bitinstant - support case link wrong
by

on 19/05/2013, 17:19:19 UTC
I got a reply from them after reporting an issue, to my email.

The message contains an URL to the case where I should be able to add more comments.

The URL is like http://support.bitinstant.com/customer/portal/private/cases/xyz

(xyz is the case number)

When opening it, it throws me to the main page: http://support.bitinstant.com/

Is this some temporary problem on their side?

I also tried to reply by email, but got no response for that.

Any idea what to do next?

The problem is a wrong (invalid, so the funds wont end up on someone else's account) destination account number in a transfer I made.

Regards,
David

Any chance of showing the asks and bids in table form (like http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/ ) ?
(instead of the "depth chart", to save page space)

I mentioned it already in this thread, but I guess here is more audience:
a similar service to transfer bitcoins between markets?

because the regular way by BTC transaction can take an hour or even more.

Thanks in any case,

Maybe an idea for bitinstant&co

On a related note: Is there a way for quick transfer of bitcoins between exchanges?

The normal way (a regular BTC transaction) takes 30 minutes or more, depending on .... stuff.

Re: Real Time Charting, Order Book, and Time & Sales

There is sometimes missing a period of data from the graph.

It happens when I close Firefox and later reopen it (with the tabs I had before restored).


It seems the page remembered the state from last time and then continued to add new data. So there was a gap in the graph (data from the period when I had Firefox closed).

Selecting different period sizes (M15, M5, M3....) does not load the missing data. Neither does clicking the Reconnect button.

If I refresh/reload the page, then the new graph shows all data. But then I lose the accumulated lines in the "Time & Sales" table...

I believe the page could detect such a condition and reload the graph data by itself.


Thanks for the great page, by the way!

https://www.aurumxchange.com/rates

they don't list BTC-e as a destination any more.

I guess this changes every week or so. Wink

bitinstant - MtGox, Bitstamp, BTC-E...

I bitinstant operational?

I got some Internal server errors recently, also the country list sometimes shows just about ten countries.

When it worked, I tried to send from a Bitstamp voucher to MtGox account, but it failed : Bitstamp API failure

Other weird things:
  - the documentation on MtGox says for bitinstant funding that the account number (like 12345) or username (like johny5) should be entered, but the bitinstant page asks for "MtGox Account # (ex. M12345678X) " - I guess the mtgox documentation is outdated?

 - when sending to Bitstamp, it asks for "Account ID or username" , but bitstamp has no username, just account ID (number)

 - I see no way to send to BTC-E (it is not listed in the "Pay to" menu), but the BTC-E site claims it can be funded over Bitinstant. Was this feature removed from bitinstant recently?


Thanks for all answers,
David

Congratulations on the "Times are shown in users local timezone" feature!

Every web page should display times like that!

A minor addition, especially as most websites don't do this: either keep this fact mentioned on the page somewhere (like "all times in UTC" as used on inferior web sites) or maybe even better a "current time: xx:yy:zz"* somewhere, so the user can see that the time is same as on his wall clock (and also doubles as an indication whether the page is alive or frozen).

* just hour and minutes might be OK too

David

It can tell when you're active, not just having a window open and the site up.
Define "active".

Looking at the window?
Scrolling it up and down?
Clicking links?
Refreshing the same page over an over again?
How often?
