Best server location for trading on CoinEx
Host your trading server or bot in AWS Tokyo (ap-northeast-1): it reaches CoinEx in about 47 ms, fast enough that order placement and market data stay effectively real-time.
Avoid running latency-sensitive strategies against CoinEx from London or other distant regions. At ~462 ms (10× the co-located figure) every price you see is stale before you can act on it, and that staleness turns into slippage on every market order.
