Is cat trading on some exclusive VIP ftx subdomain?
Frontrunning might be speculation, but there's no doubt about the lag/latency.
When i market order on ftx, I have enough time to brew some tea, take the dog for a walk, buy some groceries, and then my order gets filled.

can you send me a video of the lag you're seeing? would be super useful.

it's hard, form words alone, to debug--best guess is that it's browser lag but to figure out for sure we'll need to be able to line up e.g. orderbook state at the time the button was clicked

It’s not browser when the lag input also exists on your API

API lag is a small fraction of a second
would love to reduce that too, but not related to multi-second browser-based lag
It even lags in wallet when you dont have "hide zero balances" ticked in

just admit completely front runs everyone robbing them blindly. so ct can put you out of business.

for UI issues can use profiler in dev tools, u will see which tasks are taking long or blocking.
both API latency and UI issues are important. small fraction of sec matters i think u know it... get a good external QA team, it will be easier than debugging with a screenrecording)

The wallet screen really lags a lot on browser. The mobile app works perfect but the browser is absolutely horrendous.
