Hi,
I was playing around with an arbitrage script and I was wondering if this indicates there is a delay in the btce API or if I'm missing something. For example I ran the script and the following happened:
Ran arbitrage analysis and saw small profit of 0.003 cents Executed trade to make 0.003 cents Ran arbitrage analysis again and saw same profit of 0.003 cents
So I was pretty confident I should've made 0.003 cents because the analysis immediately before and after the trade was 0.003 cents but in fact I lost something like 8 cents on the trade. Does this indicate the API has a delay of some sort? Maybe this is to prevent arbitrage?
(Also, I'm pretty sure my bot is accurate because I've tested it with negative profit values and it's been accurate to like 8 decimal places.) Thanks,
-Teneth
