Feature	REST API	WebSocket API
Use for	One-time queries, placing orders	Real-time monitoring, live price feeds
Import	`using ccxt;`	`using ccxt.pro;`
Methods	`Fetch*` (FetchTicker, FetchOrderBook)	`Watch*` (WatchTicker, WatchOrderBook)
Speed	Slower (HTTP request/response)	Faster (persistent connection)
Rate limits	Strict (1-2 req/sec)	More lenient (continuous stream)
Best for	Trading, account management	Price monitoring, arbitrage detection
