In the trade window, trades on the bid are being coded as 'buys' and ask as 'sell'. For some reason they are swapped. This started today.

I have installed the latest release version.

OK we will let BitMEX know.

Thanks.

The bid and ask values are correct, as are the execution prices.

If SC is determining buy/sell based off this info alone, then it might be the problem.

The issue is clearly on the BitMEX side and they have been told about it.

The programmer responsible for this has corrected the problem, but BitMEX has yet to release the new software. Hopefully that will be today.

Thanks. If I backfill my charts/data, do you anticipate I will get consistent data?

We would have to correct the data. We do have the ability to do that, but we have to find a chance to do this. We will see if we can do it in the next day or two. It is not something we can prioritize immediately.

Thanks. A day or two is reasonable. It is important this data is accurate for several indicators I use.

We have to apologize. We never got around to doing this. It does require some additional custom programming to accomplish. We intend to get to it at some point.
