# Market & Trading Mode Integrations

QuantumExecute currently supports integration with major cryptocurrency exchanges and is continuously expanding its connectivity. Below is the list of supported markets and trading modes, as well as planned integrations:

* **Binance (Spot Trading):** Fully supported. Users can connect their Binance spot accounts via API and execute algorithms on all major trading pairs. The platform handles Binance-specific API requirements (such as timestamp/signature, IP whitelisting) under the hood. (Note: For test purposes, Binance’s testnet can also be used if needed, though standard usage is on the live site.)
* **Coinbase Pro (Spot):** *Planned.* Support for Coinbase Pro’s API is in development or available on request. This would allow trading of USD pairs and others on Coinbase through QE algorithms.
* **OKX, Huobi, Kraken, etc.:** These popular exchanges are on our roadmap. QuantumExecute’s architecture is exchange-agnostic, meaning new connectors can be added. If you have a specific exchange requirement, contact us – we prioritize based on user demand. We intend to support all major exchanges in time, ensuring you can use QE for a wide range of markets.
* **Futures and Derivatives:** Currently, QE focuses on spot trading execution. Support for **futures/perpetual swaps** (on exchanges like Binance Futures, Bybit, CME crypto futures) is under evaluation. The algorithms described (TWAP, POV, etc.) can generally be applied to futures as well, but additional risk management and mark price tracking might be required for derivative markets. As of now, assume spot-only unless otherwise announced.
* **Fiat and Altcoin Markets:** On supported exchanges, you can trade any pair that the exchange’s API allows (provided it falls under spot). For example, on Binance: BTC/USDT, ETH/BTC, altcoins, etc., are all tradable. On fiat exchanges (like Coinbase with USD pairs), those base currencies are supported as well. The platform does not restrict which assets you trade, aside from what the connected exchange offers and any overall risk settings you configure.

**Integration Depth:** For each exchange integrated, QE ensures:

* Real-time market data ingestion (order books, trades) for that exchange, which the algorithms need for decision making.
* Order execution via the exchange’s API, conforming to their protocols and handling responses (order IDs, fill updates).
* Throttling and pacing to respect exchange rate limits (so algorithmic orders don’t hit API caps).
* Handling of edge cases, e.g., exchange maintenance times, symbol conventions differences (some exchanges use different symbols for the same asset).

Users might notice minor differences in behavior due to exchange specifics (for instance, minimum order size or tick size variations), but QE abstracts most of this so that using an algorithm feels the same regardless of exchange.

**Multi-Exchange Execution:** A future goal is to allow a single algorithm to execute across multiple exchanges simultaneously (especially for arbitrage or spread trades), though the current focus is single-exchange execution per strategy. Still, you can run multiple strategies concurrently on different exchanges from one QE account.
