No, ALGO is automatically staked, and you do not need to take any additional steps. In case you do not want to receive any staking rewards, please go to the Earn page and opt out.
You start earning rewards a day after you acquire some ALGO on your account. ALGO staking rewards are determined by the ALGO blockchain, sourced from the Algorand Community Governance Program and distributed quarterly at the end of each governance period.
The size of the rewards depends on how much you have staked, how much competition there is in the Algorand Community Governance Program and other factors.
To see the latest staking rewards, please see the Qovex Earn - Crypto Staking page.
Yes, there is no lock-up period with ALGO, and you can withdraw and trade your assets at will. Additionally, any rewards received are automatically added to your base staking amount in your main account.

However, ALGO staking is not risk-free, since staked assets could potentially face protocol and other risks, leading to loss of rewards.
