Single WebSocket channel for all destinations. Clients send frames whose `destination`
field selects an operation (marketData.subscribe, marketData.unsubscribe,
OHLCMarketData.subscribe, OHLCMarketData.unsubscribe, ping). The server publishes
subscription confirmations, market data updates, OHLC bar updates, and ping responses
on the same connection.

About AsyncAPI
The AsyncAPI specification describes event-driven APIs the way OpenAPI describes request/response APIs. A channel is the named pipe — a webhook URL, a Kafka topic, a WebSocket route, an MQTT subject — that producers and consumers publish or subscribe to. Each channel carries one or more messages with structured payloads, and an operation declares whether a given party sends or receives on that channel.
Discovery needs no key. Ratings and market analysis are Pro.
