Perhaps taking the closeness of open orders to feed price for MPA trading pairs into account would be wise, otherwise I could create bitUSD:randomUIA at an inflated rate to spam the active section.
I do like this idea, trying to find possible trades (without the use of a bot to monitor favourite trading pairs) is quite difficult.
@destenson, I agree that the markets section is a bit wonky and misnamed but did you know that you can click on the star to the left of the asset to label it as a favorite then click on "SHOW [STAR] ONLY" at the top to turn it into the My Markets it actually should be?
I think that "MY MARKETS" should be renamed to "MARKETS". It is only "MY MARKETS" when "SHOW [STAR] ONLY" is selected.
Markets needs an overall rewrite. Leaving this open for discussion.
This is my rough idea to make it generalized (just quick edit in paint, can be done better) :
No find markets tab - not necessary - the filter should be finding markets
As always the main issue here is the API: there is no way of getting active markets, top markets, markets with open orders etc from the current API. Also, since any asset can be paired with any other asset, the number of combinations are staggering, which is why there needs to be a search functionality.
It's conceivable that rather than display active markets, we could consider harnessing the coinmarketcap API and just list the top cryptos by market cap. For those assets that trade on the dex we might offer jumping off points to the dex
That's fair. Ideally would be nice for each asset to have some that information within its parameters that can be continuously updated.
How about this: to reduce the number of combinations, fill the blank sorting list of length N by observing blocks as they appear every 3 seconds. Higher volume tends to have higher activity from bots and will make it trivial to fill. Replace contents of list when a better combination is found or additional rules are added. Can prefill the list somewhat to speed it up (like w/ bts, bitcny, bitusd).
Instead of, or in addition to, the "My Markets" section of the Exchanges screen, there should be an Active Markets section. It should show only markets that are "active", those which have had orders filled "recently" (in the last few months). There should also be a way to select, search for, or get a list of all markets that have open orders waiting to be filled. I'm sure that more people would be trading on the lesser known markets if they were aware of the bargains that may exist there.
