# agent402.tools Options Analytics

> agent402.tools Options Analytics is a paid API for AI agents from agent402.tools, paid per call via x402, $0.026/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Runs a bundled Black-Scholes options pricing workflow for a given stock ticker: fetches live quote, estimates volatility, computes fair value and full Greeks, and checks recent news catalysts.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agent402-tools-options-analytics-76a8d1c3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you price a European option on NVDA — pull the live quote, estimate volatility from recent history, run Black-Scholes for fair value, give me all the Greeks, and flag any news catalysts I should know about?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a one-shot, fully bundled options analytics workflow that combines live data fetching, volatility estimation, Black-Scholes pricing, Greeks computation, and news analysis in a single call — rather than orchestrating each of those steps individually across separate APIs.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error
- Live quote fetch fails if market data source is unavailable
- Volatility estimation may fail if insufficient historical data exists for the ticker
- News catalyst lookup may return empty results for thinly covered stocks
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient

## How this service works

Bundled execution of the Options analytics workflow - Price a European option on a live stock: pull the current quote, estimate volatility from recent history, run Black-Scholes for fair value + the full greeks, and check the news for catalysts. One x402 payment runs 4 underlying tools (stock-quote, stock-history, black-scholes, search); partial-success per step.

## Output

Returns the Black-Scholes fair value of the option, the full set of Greeks (delta, gamma, theta, vega, rho), the live stock quote used, the estimated historical volatility, and a summary of recent news that could act as a catalyst for price movement.
