Introducing the new Rate Oracle feature

In this release, we introduce to the users the rate oracle feature. This new feature provides a real-time, most up-to-date exchange rate on any given token or currency from a reliable and trustworthy data source.

If enabled, the bot will use a real-time conversion rate from the oracle when the trading pair symbols mismatch. For example, if markets are set to trade for LINK-USDT and LINK-USDC, the bot will use the oracle conversion rate between USDT and USDC.

Rate Oracle is compatible with cross-exchange market-making, arbitrage.
