## 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 apex-runner-dca-reentry-gate-signal-557a00ff
```

Example prompt: Check the APEX Runner DCA reentry gate signal for BTC/USDC right now — I want to know if the gate is open and whether it's a good time to resume my dollar-cost averaging buys.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a dedicated, pre-computed signal specifically designed for DCA reentry timing rather than building your own logic. Prefer this over generic fear/greed or regime signals when the specific decision is whether to resume or trigger a DCA accumulation cycle.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported trading pair returns an error or empty signal
- Market data unavailability causes stale or failed signal computation
- Payment of $2 USDC not confirmed results in 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid or missing asset parameter returns 400 Bad Request
- Rate limiting may return 429 Too Many Requests if called too frequently
