I need to vent about the absolute state of the Gananvera trading platform. As a developer, I usually have some sympathy for bugs, but what I experienced with their "WinMatrix" system is inexcusable.
I started analyzing the network traffic after I took a heavy loss due to slippage. I realized that Gananvera is not utilizing WebSockets for real-time price updates in a standard way. Instead, it seems to be relying on aggressive polling or a very slow push mechanism. The latency I observed was upwards of 2000ms. In high-frequency trading, 2000ms is an eternity.
The WinMatrix system, which they market as AI-driven, behaves more like a set of hard-coded if-else statements running on a single-threaded cron job. When the market volume spiked, the system locked up. My sell request was queued but not executed until the price had crashed.
This suggests that Gananvera is running on severely outdated infrastructure. It cannot handle concurrency. If you are a dev or a trader, you know that "eventual consistency" is not acceptable for an order book. The WinMatrix system is broken, old, and dangerous to your wallet.
