[0.5] Add Ability to Invert the Call Price Ratio For Borrowed Assets

[landry314]

Under ACCOUNT tab under Margin Positions I see:

x bitCNY y BTS RATIO (CALL PRICE) BTS/bitCNY

but I would rather it was:

x bitCNY y BTS RATIO (CALL PRICE) bitCNY/BTS

You have the ratio flipped the least useful way.

(EDITED AFTER ERROR I MADE)

Needs to be researched and once confirmed, we can classify it as a bug.

[landry314]

Ok, this isn't a bug, it is just that the call price is written in the less useful ratio.

It would be nice to be able to invert the price like you can in the recent activity.

[landry314]

The ratios are also inverted in the recent activity feed. Can't you see this? LOOK. This is an incredible mistake.

I absolutely astonished the developers don't care about a mistake like this.

Man, I've got to say, your tone sucks. We are all here to help so try not to be so condescending, please.

[svk31]

Agree with Bill about the tone.

On the issue itself, your missing the fact that there is no "right" way of displaying prices, you may prefer one market direction while I prefer the other. In the recent activity feed you can click the price and invert it so it uses the direction you prefer. We could certainly enable that for the call prices as well.

[landry314]

I apologize about my tone. I appreciate all the work you have done.

I agree that adding INVERT THE PRICE for the Call Price would be a good feature to please everyone.

[wmbutler]

Could use some help estimating this @svk31

[wmbutler]

I think we need to adopt an icon for price inversion across the entire site. Ideally, clicking on an asset would take the user to the asset explorer page, while clicking on an inversion icon would invert the price and clicking on a a market/exchange icon would take them to the exchange. We are currently trying to pack too much functionality into the display of a trading pair.

[wmbutler]

Short term fix (before tables rewrite): Add text above "Update Position" titled "Invert Price"

[landry314]

Maybe "Invert Pair" or "Flip Ratio" or "Invert Ratio" might work too. "Invert Price" to me feels like an action you might be doing to your position when next to two other position actions.

[wmbutler]

"Invert pair"

[svk31]

Or we could just revert it to the old behaviour which is like this:

[landry314]

One other place we can't invert the ratio is after clicking "See open orders" from the leftmost menu under ACCOUNT tab. I have to use a calculator to invert it sometimes. I'll create a new issue now.
