⚡ Speed: A bot with WebSocket receives the new price in ~10ms. A human looking at a graph takes ~500ms to process it. That difference multiplies in thousands of trades.
🔌 WebSocket vs REST API
| Aspect | WebSocket | REST API |
|---|---|---|
| Connection | Permanent ✅ | Per request |
| Latency | ~10ms ✅ | ~100-500ms |
| Data | Real-time Push ✅ | Pull (must ask) |
| Server Load | Low ✅ | High (many requests) |
DearmasTrader uses WebSockets to receive prices in real-time and SignalR to send updates to the Dashboard instantly.
