What is Bravado?
Read books, best bid/offer, trades and market state, then continue through WebSocket. Wallet economics includes positions, P&L, fees, rewards and FIFO cost basis; fills need reconciliation with this accounting model.
Server-side strategies can continue while a client is offline. Sandbox and production use different keys, and pre-confirmation activity differs from settled on-chain state. Operation-specific credit weights mean request counts alone do not establish usage.
