Krypto-trading-bot: HitBTC - Completed trades aren't always recorded in Ping/Pong table

[Zachar543]

I'm seeing the occasional HitBTC trade being completed (according to HitBTC's trades page), but the Ping/Pong table does not display the trade. With the "audio?" option enabled, I do hear the sound for a new Ping or Pong, but the trade isn't always recorded.

This just started in the 2 days, and it appears that HitBTC may be having API issues (spikes of extremely high latency, gateway timeouts, etc.), so that may be a factor.

I updated to the current newest commit, but it didn't help.

history of trades accumulate orders of the same price.

that is, you will not see 2 rows in the table of trades with the same price.

that may be where you are missing your trades, because they are accumulated together based on same price.

look for the quantities, you will notice accumulated orders.

the audio is played after adding/accumulating the new trade into the table, so if you hear it, just look for it until you see it, because it was already added/accumulated.

since the table is sorted by time, you will find it at the very first row of the table.

it may be in the ping or in the pong side, depending if it matches another previous trade or not, and it may have the quantity higher because it may end up ontop of another row of the same price.

note that pongs of different price may match the same previous ping trade, in that case not only the quantities are accumulated but also the different prices are accumulated; here you may be missing more trades.

when a trade goes onto another row of the same price, the time displayed is of the last trade accumulated in the row, so you can not look for times of old trades.

that is, the bot has a dynamic history of trades, not static like in the boooriiiing reports of the exchanges.

Thanks for responding. This appears to be better now (possibly due to a reinstall).

When this was happening, I checked for corresponding Pings/Pongs soon after I heard the sound, but I couldn't find any orders in the table that matched based on timePing/timePong (all were several minutes older), pxPing/pxPong prices, or any qtyPing/qtyPong that was anything other than my set bidSize/askSize, which is the min size on the exchange. It was almost as though they weren't recorded.

Since a reinstall seems to have fixed this along with several other things, feel free to leave this closed.
