I would think there is probably room for both. I'm still much a novice, but it seems to me for example the experienced campers still advocate trading manually even though I would suspect automated strategies are highly efficient.
In the context of this thread, I would think it foolish to rely on a strategy that depends on transmission latency advantages. The only way one will maintain that edge is....being on the forefront of a gradually declining gap...and there's always someone with more money and better computers than the little guy...it would follow you'd want to be prepared to go big...
It's mildly amusing to contemplate how one would go about implementing the lowest latency/fastest automated technology on the planet...if its not gpses on saddleclothes, it'd probably have to be horse facial recognition
