Considering the trade information reported here: <https://btc-e.com/api/3/trades/btc_usd>

1. Do these refer to open orders, or to completed trades? If this shows only completed trades, does the API offer a means to retrieve the open orders?
2. Each record has an 'amount' field. Is this field always in USD for both bids and asks?
