Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

Where are all the bots?

Do you reckon there's much algorithm based trading similar to high-frequency trading going on? Some of the exchanges offer public APIs, not sure how fast they are though.

No, you cant program any algo to understand the behaviour in these markets. There is no historic data to work off and a lot of the swings up and down in price are not understood and cant be verified as the exchanges are private companies.
