Self-Hosted vs Cloud-Hosted Trading Bots: The Honest Tradeoff
Self-hosted and cloud-hosted trading bots represent a real architectural tradeoff, not a clear winner. Self-hosting gives you control of your credentials and your stack, and hands you the uptime burden and operational responsibility that come with them. Cloud-hosting takes that burden off your hands, and asks you to trust a third party with more. This is the honest comparison, conceding the real costs on both sides, including the side StaxInvesting is on.
