> APEX Runner Market Regime Signal is a paid API for AI agents from apexrunner.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.105/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

## Facts

- Last checked: 2026-09-15

## 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-market-regime-signal-d656000e
```

Example prompt: What's the current crypto market regime right now — is it trending, ranging, in crisis, or recovering — and what action does APEX Runner recommend?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs a quick, structured read on the current crypto market environment before deciding whether to place a trade, pause a strategy, or adjust parameters. Prefer this over raw price feeds when you need an interpreted, actionable signal rather than raw OHLCV data. Best used as a pre-trade gate or strategy-mode selector in an automated workflow.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not provided or insufficient — endpoint requires $0.15 USDC via x402 protocol; returns 402 if unpaid
- Service temporarily unavailable if APEX Runner backend is down
- Stale or cached regime if market data feeds are lagging
- Unexpected regime value if model is updated without schema versioning notice
