Title: Not getting filled for bitUSD
Post by: Ggozzo on September 03, 2014, 12:35:10 am
I put in a few different bids to buy bitUSD. Went as high as 34  and low as 29 and wasn't getting filled.  What's going on with the market?

The median price is 35.58x, if you bid higher than 35.59, I am sure it will be filled

So anyone selling below that point isn't getting filled why? I think putting the constraints on the bid/ask is a mistake. This is why the market is less live. If we are going to continue down this path, they have got to get rid of seeing the unacceptable orders in the bid/ask. I basically wasted 1btsx every time I tried to find the median price, .5 fee to open and .5 fee to cancel. Which reminds me, there should be no cancel fee.

You can freely bid and ask, but to short bitUSD, you have to respect the median price.  Use blockchain_get_feeds_for_asset USD  to see the median price every time before you place a short order.

Also in preferences you can change transaction fee to 0.1
