## How to call it through Zero

Example prompt: Pull the Carbon & Cashmere signal backtest results for ETH so I can see the win rate, Sharpe ratio, and profit factor for the analyst_v3 strategy over the last 30 days.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quantitative backtested performance metrics (win rate, Sharpe ratio, profit factor) for ETH trading signals from the Carbon & Cashmere analyst_v3 strategy, rather than raw price feeds or real-time signal triggers. Prefer this over generic price APIs when the goal is to evaluate signal quality or strategy viability.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported coin symbol returns 404 or empty result
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) returns 402 via x402 protocol
- Network timeout if upstream market data is unavailable
- Rate limiting if too many concurrent requests are made
- Stale or missing backtest data if insufficient historical data exists for the coin
