## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability carbon-cashmere-btc-trend-signal-b41bd8f6
```

Example prompt: What's the current BTC trend signal — is it going up or down, how strong is the move on the ADX scale, and how far is price from the 30-day support and resistance levels?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, structured BTC trend signal with both directional classification and quantitative momentum metrics (ADX, slope, support/resistance proximity) in a single call. Prefer it over raw exchange price feeds when you need pre-computed technical signals rather than just a spot price. Best suited for automated trading intelligence, alert systems, or portfolio monitoring workflows that need regime-aware context about Bitcoin's trend.

## Known failure modes

- Symbol not found or unsupported — endpoint is hardcoded to BTC path
- Payment not provided or invalid — x402 payment required at $0.01 USDC per call
- Service unavailable or upstream data delayed — stale or missing price data
- Rate limit exceeded — too many requests in a short window
- Malformed response if underlying data feed is disrupted
