QFEX provides a unified interface for trading and market data via:
  • CLI: JSON-only command-line access for human operators and AI agents.
  • WebSocket: Low latency, real-time market data and order entry.
If you want to integrate QFEX into an agentic trading workflow without managing WebSocket connections directly, use the QFEX CLI.
