Is this normal to not show any lower bids?
Bitcoin Wisdom is just generally fucked and never reports the right volumes.
a) btcwisdom truncates the order book, for speed reasons as the owner says. seeing that his site is usually up during heavy trading days when the others go down, i'm inclined to follow his logic.
b) the way the order book information is displayed is unintuitive at first maybe, but before claiming it's all wrong, first understand how prices are grouped. explanation is in the btcwisdom thread in the service subforum.
c) never heard of volume being wrong. quick check matches volume shown on tradingview. care to find some evidence for your claim?
I'm the one claiming lot's of data that bitcoinwisdom is showing is fucked up:
MACD numbers are wrong, they do not match tradingview (and my own calculations at all).
Volumes are correct if you refresh the page, but if you keep it open for a couple of hours (without internet connection loss obv). It'll start showing some real messed up volumes for the past couple of candles. If you refresh the page after that the volumes will be correct again.
What seems to be correct however is:
Price, Orderbook
In the end I got tired of websites showing me wrong data, I wrote my own (private).
If you are looking for a better site tho, I can suggest tradingview (as far as I checked their numbers are correct).
Didn't know about the volume error when not refreshing page. Sounds plausible, but seems benign to me if it's solved with a reload.
Re: MACD. Did you account for different MACD parameters? Both tradingview and btcwisdom allow you to set your own parameters, which in case of tradingview includes price source itself.
According to to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MACD or
http://stockcharts.com/help/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:moving_average_conveMACD formula is
MACD = [stockPrices,12]EMA - [stockPrices,26]EMA
signal = [MACD,9]EMA
histogram = MACD – signal
Standard MACD uses EMA to calculate signal. Trading View uses Simple MA to calculate by default, If uncheck tradingview's MACD option "Simple MA(Signal Line)", the chart will be same.

Re: MACD. Did you account for different MACD parameters? Both tradingview and btcwisdom allow you to set your own parameters, which in case of tradingview includes price source itself.

The formula you describe is correct however your results aren't. The argument you make about tradingview I knew about so I made sure I compared apples with apples (I'm no fool):
TradingView MACD Histogram Previous 30 Minutes:
-1.17
BitcoinWisdom MACD Histogram Previous 30 Minutes:
-2.2
Bitcoincharts.com MACD Histogram Previous 30 Minutes:
You can't hover over the Histogram to be sure, but it looks close to 1.2 (the same as TradingView has)
I see. I fogot when I write the formula make histogram twice to make the indicator more readable so the formula I used is histogram = 2*(MACD – signal) for histogram, and when compared with trading view before, I checked all value except histogram. I have not decided to make the MACD follow standard or keep it more readable. but the trends is correct.

Correct Values > Readability!
I agree, but not all. At least make it an optional, let user know something is not standard. Such as Trading view uses MA instead of EMA by default.
Now I've added a parameter 'MultipleOfHistogram' to control it.
