FAQ
Common questions, answered.
Does PATUtrade hold my funds?
No. PATUtrade is non-custodial. Your funds stay in your own exchange account. We only place trades on your behalf through trading-only API keys.
Does PATUtrade need withdrawal permission?
No, and we will never ask for it. We only require spot trading permission. If you are prompted for withdrawals, do not grant it.
How are my API keys stored?
Encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. They are decrypted only inside the secure trading service and never exposed in the frontend, logs, or notifications.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. The free demo tier includes backtesting and paper trading with virtual funds.
What happens if a risk limit is reached?
The bot automatically stops opening new trades and you are notified. The system is designed to fail safe.
Are backtest results guaranteed?
No. Backtested and simulated performance does not guarantee future results. Real trading involves financial risk.
Which exchanges are supported?
Binance is available now, with more exchanges coming through the same adapter interface.
Can I disconnect at any time?
Yes. You can revoke or delete an exchange connection at any moment.
