## 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

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a synthesized, multi-factor trade verdict for perpetual futures with a quantified confidence level and auditable track record — especially when you want to avoid building your own signal aggregation across funding rate, OI, volume, and trend data from multiple venues. Prefer it over raw market data APIs when you need a ready-to-act recommendation rather than raw indicators.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported coin symbol returns an error
- Unsupported exchange enum value returns a validation error
- Network or upstream data feed latency may delay signal freshness
- Payment failure (x402) results in 402 response with no data
- Timeframe enum mismatch returns a schema validation error

## How this service works

Composite BUY / SELL / HOLD trade verdict for a perpetual-futures market, with a 0–100 confidence score, the current market regime, live price, and multi-factor reasoning (funding rate, open-interest change, 24h volume, trend persistence, breakout state) across 17 derivatives venues. Verdict accuracy is independently auditable via a Merkle-anchored track record on Base. When the queried market is a HOLD, returns the nearest higher-confidence setups so an agent can route to an actionable market.

## Output

A structured verdict object containing: BUY/SELL/HOLD trade decision, a 0–100 confidence score, the current market regime (e.g. TRENDING_UP), live price, and human-readable reasoning referencing funding rate, open-interest change, 24h volume, trend persistence, and breakout state. If the verdict is HOLD, the response also includes the nearest higher-confidence alternative setups across the 17 supported venues.
