I think MOC, or real-time Mkt orders that target a particular time of day, can offer significant advantages in some cases. And of course limit and stop market orders offer significant benefits. Imho the key benefit to daily bar MOC, or intraday Mkt orders, is minimal delay from the last time the algorithm was able to gather and process ohlcv info. If an entire night passes, lots could change! Of course those distinctions are more relevant to short term (or intraday) trading than to swing, trend and position trading.
