Meaning of 'since' parameter in trades API?

[EllenSebastian]

Hi,

Could you tell me how to use the 'since' parameter in the trades API? It doesn't seem to make any sense. Here are my observations:

https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=0 returns trades starting on July 24, 2014
https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=25000 returns trades starting on July 24, 2014 (same with any since between 0 and 25000)
https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=100000 returns trades starting on August 15, 2014
https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=200000 returns trades starting on September 20, 2014
https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=300000 returns trades starting on October 8, 2014
https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=400000 returns trades starting on October 16, 2014
https://www.okcoin.com/api/v1/trades.do?since=500000 returns trades starting on October 25, 2014

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

That's really strange actually, I never noticed that before. I always just used that without the since parameter which gives the last 60 transactions.
The parameters mentioned on this page (https://www.okcoin.com/about/publicApi.do) but they don't say much at all. In general I don't completely trust the OKCoin API...
You could try contacting them and seeing what they say although you'll probably have to use Google translate.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

It's year 2016 and 'since' parameter still doesn't work properly.
