  Project mention: What platforms/ brokers/ bots, etc support C++ written strategy? | reddit.com/r/algotrading | 2021-04-17

  If implemented right, you won't have to wait for the exchange's response for your algo to pursue : this way is more efficient if you don't need the response for anything else than checking that the trade has been successfully filled. I personally don't use it because I use the ccxt module (https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt) and highly recommend using and, if you can, supporting it.
