# Candlestick Subscription

### Overview

This page provides detailed documentation on how to subscribe to real-time candlestick (OHLCV) data using the WebSocket API. This WebSocket connection delivers continuous, live datafeeds for candlestick data across multiple markets such as stocks, cryptocurrencies, forex, and futures.

### **Request Frequency**

For a single WebSocket connection, all requests (subscribe, unsubscribe, heartbeat) are limited to 60 times per minute. If the request frequency limit is exceeded, the connection will be automatically closed. If disconnections occur too frequently, and the system deems them to be malicious requests, the API key will be banned. Please be mindful of the calling logic during usage.

### **Error Code Explanation**

Please refer to the [WebSocket error code](/en-docs/getting-started/error-codes/websocket-error-codes.md) documentation for further details.

### **Subscription Address**

Please refer to the [WebSocket subscription addresses.](/en-docs/websocket/subscription-address.md)

### **Request Quantity**

Different subscription plans allow varying numbers of products per WebSocket subscription. Please refer to the [WebSocket restrictions](/en-docs/getting-started/api-limitation/websocket-limitation.md) documentation for specific details.
