In the prediction trading market, one of the most common mistakes is mistaking opponents for living humans.



Carefully observe the fluctuating numbers on the chart; most of the time, they are driven by emotionless algorithms. This is no longer just a simple clash of opinions but a covert battle of "algorithm fingerprints." The active bots in the market are like four different hunters, each with completely opposite hunting logic, leaving distinct traces.

Arbitrage machines are among the most common. They monitor price differences between different trading pairs and will strike quickly whenever an opportunity arises. These bots are especially fast, with reaction times usually in milliseconds. Their characteristics are obvious—high trading volume, quick entry and exit, and little concern for long-term direction.

Then there are market maker bots, which operate quite differently. They act more like "liquidity providers" in the market, constantly quoting between buy and sell. They earn the spread from these quotes and are less concerned with price direction; the key is to keep the market active.

Additionally, there are tracking bots and risk hedging bots. Tracking bots follow certain signals to mimic trades, while hedging bots manage risk. Their operation modes are as precise as playing chess.

Understanding the operational features of these different types of bots is essentially learning how to survive in the algorithmic era of the market.

Speaking of which, isn't it just asking for death to compete with robots in speed as retail investors? Millisecond level? I haven't even finished pressing the keyboard.

Sigh, it's just a bunch of bots again, there's no way to compete with humans.

Wow, that's why I always get liquidated? Turns out there's really no one on the other side.

Milliseconds-level speed… We simply can't react in time.
