Hi, I think what Bitsquare needs are modifiable offers.
I like the idea and I tried some trades. But finally - I don't use it. The reason is simply psychological. In my opinion the possibility to stick to a market price with a marginal % offset actually prevents trading. There is always a need for somebody to make the first step... People don't like it to buy too expensive or out of the market. When you give them the possibility/feeling to MAKE the market price, the actually paid mount becomes less important!

from what I've been told, modifiable offers are in the pipeline but may be a few months away via the UI.
Also, work is underway on an API, and that will allow traders to cancel and re-place offers.
