Title: Price feed relative orders in 2.0?
Post by: speedy on September 06, 2015, 09:14:04 pm

Are price feed relative orders on BitAssets going to make a reappearance in 2.0?

If I remember correctly the main argument against it was that it placed too much power in the hands of the delegates providing the price feeds, thereby leaving the system open to manipulation. But the way I see it anyone who does issue a relative order is making a personal choice and he alone takes the risk. The risk is not socialized.

If we had feed relative orders then liquidity on everything would be guaranteed as market making would be trivial.

I don't know about 2.0, but you can place relative orders right now on metaexchange, including our bitUSD market.

Specify the price as a percentage of the mid price, after clicking 'Relative'
