As for the bot-advantage, I believe the order is processed when you reach the message-page, so there is no delay in actually having the order listed, just a short delay in seeing the new orderbook.
So... There is an andvantage, good to know.
Thanks for the information.
I'm not even sure if it's an advantage. The event-flow when submitting orders is as follows:
Manual / person:
Submit order ----> Result page --(wait or click)--> Reloaded asset-page
Bot:
Submit order ----> Result response
In both cases, the actual order is listed at the first arrow, directly after the submission has been sent. All a bot gets is a response that tells it whether the order was successfully submitted. A normal person gets the same response on the intermediate page that redirects back to the asset-page after a few seconds (or when the user clicks a link).
