The Security Foundation
Security and risk control aren't features you enable—they're the foundation upon which Agentical operates. Every transaction requires your explicit approval through wallet signing. Every position carries automatic stop-loss protection. Every token undergoes security screening before trading consideration. Every operational parameter respects configured limits.
The multi-layered approach ensures that even if one control fails, multiple backups provide redundancy. From wallet custody you never relinquish, to budget limits that prevent overexposure, to security screening that blocks obvious scams, to monitoring systems that detect anomalies—each layer adds protection while preserving the autonomous efficiency that makes automated trading valuable.
Safe trading isn't about avoiding all risk—it's about understanding, measuring, and controlling risk within acceptable boundaries while maintaining operational security that protects your assets and account integrity.
