Credit Market Chart Improvement

Postby Captain dungeness » Sat Feb 04, 2017 5:22 am

I would like to propose an improvement to the credit market chart which is currently misleading.
I would like to make it just like the bitcoin price charts are displayed. They list the buy/sell prices as cumulative instead of individual. This makes the graph 1000% more readable and gives a very good idea of the market at a glance.
This shouldn't be hard to implement because it's just the way it is displayed.

i don't think that the current display is misleading. but it took some time before i understood the display.
same with the new proposal, only the proposal is a bit more intuitive imo. you have/need gc and you see directly how many credits you can get, you have/want credits and see the amount of gc.

I feel a bar chart format would be the same as what we have now, just easier to veiw

you could potentially combine the two charts to show both buy and sell prices

I would also love to see a chart like this that shows moving average sales price with a volume indicator
maybe showing hourly or daily or even better if you could toggle between the two

The Kracken approve of this suggestion : the current charts give them eye-strain and a horrid throbbing behind their noble brows : they would be happy with a clearer and more legible system in place : many lives would thus be saved : that may not be a good thing in itself, but hey, whats wrong with a little peace, love and understanding?

I think the current chart is misleading because glancing at it gives the impression that there are more offers to buy credits than to sell credits because the area under the curve is larger.(in fact there are currently 4 times more sell offers). What's worse is that I can change the display of the graph by adding just a few offers of 1 credit:

+1 to a change in the Graph.

Also, could there be a "History" for the market.

Today there has been XXX credits sold
Today there has been XXX credits bought
Since Start there has been XXXXXX credits sold
Since Start there has been XXXXXX credits bought

I would at least like to see the daily totals, as I like to watch markets flux. This allows buyers and sellers to get in while the market is "hot". Make for a more engaged trading experience.
I don't fear death. I look forward to it with great anticipation. For then I will met God face to face and let him know that I stole his Man of War!!!

Implemented

For history addons/etc, you will have to wait a bit longer as we have some ideas to make them really nice. For this we need some extra time.
