Hi I have a question, I'm new to Sierra, and trading in general. With the update, are we also able to trade on Mt.Gox in this platform? and If so, maybe you could elaborate on how to connect a mtgox account to sierra charts. - Thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-04-16 19:24:53

Trading through with MTGox through Sierra Chart is not yet supported. This should be supported within the next 30 days.

Hi BTC charts show up and update well, but Litecoin LTE pair graphs do not get displayed. After find symbol --> LTCUSD --> Open intraday chart -- Only black empty workspace appears. If instead, Open historical chart is chosen -- then the messages " Downloading historical data " and " Historical download complete " -- and empty black workspace do appear. |

So you all know, one thing we are noticing is that we keep losing the connection to the MTGox source data feed about every 20 minutes, however we automatically reconnect. This past hour we also noticed 2 interruptions lasting 3 minutes. We see that the MTGox data feed is not entirely reliable and also from an engineering perspective, its technical implementation really is very confusing and not well structured. They are using what is called a web socket and then on top of that Socket I/O . This is unnecessary and the method by which this is implemented is not technically correct. So we are not very impressed with the MTGox data feed. This is just a comment. They also do not provide an efficient data feed. However, this is not of much significance for us. Aside from all this, we are going to do the very best we can to provide a reliable Bitcoin data feed. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

thanks! ran it over night and it looks nice. I did lose the real-time feed a couple of times during big moves (e.g. @04:52 America/Chicago) but the chart recovered. I'd rather see Bitstamp before BTC-E. We will look at adding trading support for Bitstamp.

We have now cut over to our improved Bitcoin data feed from MTGox. You will now notice the Volume numbers more accurately reflect the true volume. A volume of 10000 represents 1 Bitcoin . And a volume of 1 represents 0.0001 Bitcoin . We have loaded in 2 years of historical Tick by tick Bitcoin data for all of the currencies. To access this historical data in existing charts, go to the chart and select Edit >>Delete All Data and Download. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Great. Also, I'm finding the volume very confusing and overwhelming, it would be great to see a decimal place. keep it up! - L |

There is no easy solution for the Volumes because Sierra Chart does not use a decimal point in volumes and implementing something like that is not really realistic at this time. Although it is relatively easy for us to create a new Volume study that will use a decimal point. We will do that. We will probably call it "Volume-Bitcoin".

Can this be configured to show 1.0 for 1BTC like it used to be? We have now cut over to our improved Bitcoin data feed from MTGox. You will now notice the Volume numbers more accurately reflect the true volume. A volume of 10000 represents 1 Bitcoin . And a volume of 1 represents 0.0001 Bitcoin .

We are still seeing how best to work on the volume. Just give us another day or 2.
