What are the benefits of using the trading software on Bitcashier?
We have the deepest liquidity in the crypto industry, due to that we are connected to multiple providers. Our software aggregates all the order books into one unified view and calculates how trades should be executed on various exchanges based on available depth.
What are the benefits of trading on aggregated order books?
When the market gets very busy, many exchanges suffers latency or outright downtime that prevents execution of trades. Our software will always find an active exchange with no downtime and execute any orders. We are connected to exchanges that are not generally accessible to individuals, and can therefore execute trades even when mayor exchanges are down.
How is the exchange rate on Bitcashier different from other exchanges
Our software aggregates all trades, all order books and displays a continuous stream of data, either via our API or via our dashboard. This means that all aggregated order books are available to trade on while our algorithms ensure the best price execution is found for every trades.
What is the actual exchange rate?
There is no one unified exchange rate, because there is no such thing as a price. Prices are made up by either side of the order book, known as Bid and Ask. Trades are then executed between the two sides in order to give a resemblence of the last agreed to market price. The price however swings wildly and can differ by hundreds of USD every single second.
Does the exchange rate change based on volume?
The exchange rate is affected by multiple factors, especially the volume. If the volume is of significant size, either the Bid or Ask side in the order books will be consumed by one large trade, and the average exchange rate will therefore greatly change compared to the last traded price.
Why is the exchange rate different than the last traded price?
Last traded price is a snapshot of a deal between Bid and Ask, based on an arbitrary volume, at a fixed point in time. If someone for example purchases 10 Bitocoin at a given rate, it only means that the Bid and Ask side agreed to such exchange rate at that very specific moment in time, and is based on volume of the trade. The next trade following can have siginificant different exchange rate due to that it might have been traded on a different order book, or due to increased or decreased volume.
How does the software on Bitcashier help me trade more efficient?
By aggregating order books, trading across order books, and combining the order books into one data stream, sequentially going from the best Ask/Bid offer in order to meet a certain volume, offers an unparralel access to any serious trader to have optimized trading strategies not offered by any single exchange.
