How orders work

Velor executes orders at market windows rather than instantly. At launch there is one window a week: Monday, 30 minutes after the US market opens (we skip the chaotic opening minutes on purpose). This is deliberate, and it protects you.

Why windows? Because it's fair. Everyone in a window gets the same execution, priced by real trades, not by a stale quote someone can game. Instant-looking crypto systems quietly pass hidden costs to slower users; windows eliminate the trick entirely.

Placing an order: choose a basket, enter an amount (each basket sets its own minimum, shown in the deposit panel), review the fees, confirm. Your order is pending until the next window; you can cancel it any time before the window settles. After the window, your shares are ready to claim. We show you the timing before you confirm, never after.

Weekends and holidays: US markets close on weekends; stock prices genuinely don't exist between Friday close and Monday open. Orders placed in between simply wait for Monday's window, which is where the weekend's repricing lands for everyone at once.

Withdrawals work the same way in reverse: request → next window → claim your cash. Every basket also holds a cash floor, which is what lets a window fund redemptions without dumping stock.
