But beneath the surface lies a web of infrastructure challenges, data feeds, and execution speed bumps that every solo developer eventually runs into. Here is a look behind the curtain at where the system stands, the operational bugs caught in the crossfire, and the reality of turning strategy into execution. 1. The Bottleneck: Data Pipelines & Rate Limits When you’re building an engine that relies on real-time market signals, data architecture is everything.
