Frequently asked questions
Is LV Chat a live trading bot?
No. LV Chat explains concepts, finds CryptoLV guides, and can calculate position size. It does not connect wallets, monitor live markets, or execute trades.
What is the difference between a managed and custom agent?
A managed agent prioritizes quick setup within a provider's defined limits. A custom agent offers more control over data, tools, permissions, and evaluation, but requires your own maintenance and security.
How should I evaluate an agent for crypto?
Check the date and source of its data, every tool permission, how outputs are verified, and whether a person can stop or correct any action before capital is at risk.
