How To Trade Bitstamp USD on Gatehub?

[tomas.vin]

Hi,

I want to ask you if (and how) is possible to trade Bitstamp USD on Gatehub?

Thanks for answer.

You'd need to add USD.Bitstamp to exchange pairs manually, because Gatehub doesn't have it listed by default.

When you go to Trade page, expand the pairs drop-down on top and press (+) sign. Then push Custom;  currency=USD, ripple address=rvYAfWj5gh67oV6fW32ZzP3Aw4Eubs59B

Do you know if there's a way to "make it stick"? I have to add those pairs manually every freaking day and it's getting tiresome.

Hey thanks for this info, I am trying to do this myself as well. Do I use the ripple address you posted above or do I use my own ripple address from gatehub?

@phaseshift you'd use address of gateway whose asset you want to trade. The above one is official address for all Bitstamp assets, so you can use it.

Thank you for the swift reply! How long does it usually take for USD.Bitstamp to USD Gatehub take?

Do you mean exchange between those two USDs? If you use Exchange it's instant but you use current market price which is sometimes far from 1:1 (e.g. right now it's around 0.88  ). Or you use Trade and set your desired price. In that case you'd wait until the market reaches that price.

Okay so I was able to add in the trade screen now I can see USD Bitstamp and USD XRP so now what is my next step to initiate a trade? I guess my question is how do I get bitstamp USD into my Gatehub account and use it to buy XRP? I guess what I'm trying to do is, I have USD in bitstamp right now, I want to be able to use that on gatehub to buy XRP...is this possible? Maybe I am misunderstanding lol

Okay so I think I got it lol, do a withdrawal from Bitstamp to my XRP Ripple address on gatehub. but first make sure I have trusts set for rvYAfWj5gh67oV6fW32ZzP3Aw4Eubs59B
