NOT USABLE! - I meant to place a stop order pretty far below price! Then I realized I placed a limit order! TV has no stop orders! I just lost exit/entry fees ($7 in my case) due to some confusion. Bitstamp ordering is limited, when not buggy (see below). - Bitstamp's official trading UI (not here in TV) doesn't have Stop Loss or Take Profit features but at least it works. The TradingView integration not only does has no Stop Loss and Take Profit features, but orders often fail saying an insufficient funds error (while the same order in Bitstamp's official UI for the same amount will succeed). - Because of the failing orders, I end up just having to switch to Bitstamp to actually place orders, so the TradingView integration is pretty much not useful, no need to have it, hence a rating of 1 (for now). - The integration also disconnects after some time of inactivity, and sometimes I can't reconnect. The auth screen will redirect back to TV but it will be blank. Then when I manually go back to TV, it is not connected. - The account summary shows many symbols of which I do not own, all with zero balances. I do not need to see all that, and I don't want to have to scroll all the way to the bottom to see my USD and BTC balances. Just don't show assets with zero balance! If filed order issues are fixed, it'll go up to 2 without necessary features like Stop Loss on Market and Limit orders. A score of 3 would be basic expectations with at least Stop Loss on orders. To get 4 or more, the view in the trading panel need to be more robust, and ordering features need to be robust like Webull. What keeps a big company like Bitstamp from adding basic necessities and working in basic ways without bugs? I really hope it will improve, and if it does, I'll gladly improve my rating, but right now besides the features being lackluster, the integration is totally unreliable and you are forced to use Bitstamp directly. This is not usable.
