## 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 crypto-leverage-funding-rate-signal-a4c4927a
```

Example prompt: What's the current funding rate and long/short ratio for BTC perpetual futures, and is leverage building up on one side — any squeeze risk I should know about?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need derivatives-specific market sentiment for crypto — particularly funding rate and positioning crowdedness — rather than spot price data. Prefer this over generic price endpoints when evaluating squeeze risk, basis trades, or whether leveraged positions are becoming one-sided. Best for OKX-listed perpetuals (BTC, ETH, SOL, and others).

## Known failure modes

- Symbol not listed on OKX perpetuals returns 404 or empty result
- Invalid ticker format causes a bad request error
- OKX data feed latency may cause stale values during high volatility
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 or 429

## How this service works

Crypto perpetual-futures leverage/squeeze-risk signal in one call: funding rate, open interest, and long/short account ratio, each with recent history and a rising/falling/flat trend -- how crowded and leveraged one side of the market has gotten, the derivatives analogue of stock short interest. Works for any OKX-listed perpetual (BTC, ETH, SOL, and more). From OKX. $0.01/call.

## Output

Returns funding rate, open interest, and long/short account ratio for the requested perpetual futures symbol, each with a short historical series and a rising/falling/flat trend label, enabling assessment of how crowded or leveraged one side of the market has become.
