Third, this stuff:

Actual Usage Without Silly Pictures

client = Bitstampede::Client.new

client.key = 'YOUR_API_KEY'
client.secret = 'YOUR_API_SECRET'
client.client_id = 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID'

# Alternatively, you can configure the client on initialization with:
client = Bitstampede::Client.new(key: 'YOUR_API_KEY', secret: 'YOUR_API_SECRET', client_id: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID')

# Fetch your balance
client.balance
# => #<Bitstampede::Entities::Balance:0x0000000259f338 @usd_balance=#<BigDecimal:259e898,'0.0',9(9)>, @btc_balance=#<BigDecimal:2726698,'0.0',9(9)>, @usd_reserved=#<BigDecimal:2726328,'0.0',9(9)>, @btc_reserved=#<BigDecimal:2725fb8,'0.0',9(9)>, @usd_available=#<BigDecimal:2725c48,'0.0',9(9)>, @btc_available=#<BigDecimal:27258b0,'0.0',9(9)>, @fee=#<BigDecimal:2725540,'0.0',9(9)>>

client.orders
#=> [
  #<Bitstampede::Entities::Order:0x000000027302d8 @id=0, @datetime=0, @type=:buy, @price=#<BigDecimal:272f428,'0.0',9(9)>, @amount=#<BigDecimal:272f130,'0.0',9(9)>>
]

# Place a limit order to buy one bitcoin for $100.00 USD
client.buy!(BigDecimal('1'), BigDecimal('100'))

# Place a limit order to sell one bitcoin for $101.00 USD
client.sell!(BigDecimal('1'), BigDecimal('101'))

# Cancel order #1234
client.cancel 1234

Examples

You can run any of the examples in the example dir by just executing the script (except example/example.rb, which is the base example class). For instance, to see your balance, do the following:

ruby example/balance.rb
