Security and Risk

Protect your portfolio and API keys. Comprehensive guides on exchange security, risk management frameworks, and position sizing strategies.

With Freya your funds stay on your own exchange account: the API key can read and trade but never withdraw. These guides explain how to set up keys safely, protect your account with 2FA, size positions so one bad trade cannot sink you, and think honestly about risk. Automated trading can lose money, and the best protection is knowing exactly how.
