Some signals can be acted on delay when the strategy thinks the ideal selling/buying point is about to happen, but there may be scenarios where the only way to prevent a loss is in immediate sell (or buy) as close as possible to the currently quoted price.

The fees may be higher, but this should allow for strategy situations where there's a high confidence that the best price will be to buy/sell at this very instant, and delaying using limit orders would miss that opportunity. Not sure how heavy this change would be in the current zenbot designs.

Hello,
if in your strategy you do something like : s.order_type='taker' you will replace the current order_type from maker to taker, you'll then have to switch back to maker once the order is validated
