Frontend Update: May 16, 2017

BitMEX

This month, we’ve added a few new features to the UI:

  • Animations now flash green and red to indicate if a number is increasing or decreasing! This helps you keep tabs on your position, the orderbook, and so on.

 

  • Your Unrealised PNL can now be hovered upon, which will give you an idea of your PNL if you were to exit at market.
    • At this time, the calculation simply assumes a full exit at the best bid/offer. In future revisions, we will run a full book calculation taking into account current liquidity and your position size.
    • Even when the updated version hits, keep in mind that there is no guarantee present liquidity will hold by the time an order gets to the engine.
  • We’ve made minor visual changes, including improvements to mobile rendering and speed.
  • Our integration with Sierra Chart is complete! If you are interested in using Sierra Chart with BitMEX, start here.
  • It’s now possible to place sell orders above a limit up price and buy orders below a limit down. This comes particularly in handy on pre-release contracts, like GNO before it traded on Poloniex. We have more such contracts in the works.

As always, contact us in the trollbox or at support@bitmex.com if you have any problems or feature requests!
