Hi

"ticker" ? Are you sure ? It looks more like [tt]$json["[red]btc_usd[/red]"]["last"][/tt] to me.

There is no "ticker" index in that json array.

So you should be getting an Undefined Index Notice because there no addressable item there. But your PHP may be set to suppress notices.

To see exactly what the array looks like and be able to address it correctly, its always a good idea to print it out. You can use print_r() to do so.

$json = json_decode($fileGet, TRUE);
echo "<pre>" . print_r($json,1) . "</pre>";

This should print out:

[pre]
Array
(
[btc_usd] => Array
(
[high] => 2486.96
[low] => 2379.112
[avg] => 2433.036
[vol] => 8576408.53547
[vol_cur] => 3526.96822
[last] => 2414.001
[buy] => 2415.99
[sell] => 2414.001
[updated] => 1498927868
)

)
[/pre]

So as feherke points out you should be addressing $json['btc_usd']['last']
