Unless you're recommend by someone you trust which bot to use, we recommend you test them. Read the bot documentation then proceed with the test below.
Pick a wallet to copy
Pick at least 2 bots you want to test (so you can compare them, at least)
Set that wallet to be copied on the bots you are testing
Make sure you are using same amount of fees and a very small trading size, this is just for test purpose, you are not trying to make money but rather avoiding to lose it in the future
After each trade, verify how long it took for them to buy and sell
Easy. You need to see in which block the transaction landed.
Go to solscan.io
Insert the wallet
Click on Balance Changes
4. In the picture, the line below is the buy transaction (amount in green) and the line above it is the sell transaction.
The block numbers 333276164 and 333276285 are when the token was Bought and Sold.
Compare the difference between blocks for the wallet being copied and the wallets from the bots you are testing. Each block in Solana is around 400miliseconds.
Do this from time to time to make sure the bot you are using isn't leaving you behind.
