Get bitcoin historical data

Question

I want to do my own bitcoin chart.

Would you know any reliable way to retrieve bitcoins' historical price data? Is there any way to retrieve it using REST? I saw Bitfloor, which supports REST, but it is not returning any useful value, it has a "internal server error".

I saw also Bitcoincharts, but I think it's limited to 2000 data values.

Would you suggest to me any framework or system to work on it?

Answer 1

Actually, you CAN get the whole Bitcoin trades history from Bitcoincharts in CSV format here: http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/csv/
Since there are no column headers in the CSVs, here's what they are :
column 1) the trade's timestamp,
column 2) the price,
column 3) the volume of the trade

Hope this answers your question.
