#### Why this matters for live trading

A live trading room is interactive: viewers ask questions, follow trades, watch guests debate, and react instantly. Low-latency and multi-host capacity are core requirements—not optional media features.

### Recording & Replay

Pumpkin records sessions and indexes them with event markers so users can replay the market narrative, not just watch a video.

Markers can include:

* strategy publish moments
* entry/exit events
* stop updates
* funding events
* liquidation risk warnings
* major chat highlights
