COMPARISON

Stocks vs crypto workflow comparison

Stocks and crypto can both be researched, but market structure, custody, hours, and API workflows are different.

Workflow checklist

Trading hours

Most crypto markets operate 24/7 while stock markets follow exchange sessions.

Custody

Crypto may involve exchange custody or self-custody, while stocks usually use brokers and clearing systems.

API risk

Crypto exchange APIs are common, but withdrawal permission must stay disabled.

No promised results

Use the toolkit as software and workflow support, not as investment advice or a profit guarantee.

Before production use

Start with demo mode, testnet, or a small controlled workflow. Confirm data reads, risk limits, execution records, cancellation handling, and manual pause behavior before increasing scope.

OFC does not custody assets, does not request withdrawal permission, and does not operate exchange accounts for users.

API boundary

Read and trade permissions only. No withdrawals.

Risk boundary

Capital caps, position caps, leverage caps, and cooldowns should be explicit.

Human review

Keep a manual decision and pause path available.
