## 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.

### Who it is for

-   Terminal developers.
-   Teams joining accounting and execution.
-   Operators using hosted strategy and data services.

## Getting started

**Before you start:** Hosted strategies may run while the client is offline.

1.  Select Data, Trade, UMA or Copytrade.
2.  Create a sandbox key.
3.  Make a small read and inspect the schema.
4.  Review operation credit weights.
5.  Configure execution account access separately.
6.  Monitor strategy state and usage in production.

One API credit is not necessarily one request.

### Our take on Bravado

Data, accounting and execution form a broad integration surface. Credit weights, venue differences and separate automation setup demand more work than a simple data API.
