## 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 ichimoku-cloud-signal-ac993be5
```

Example prompt: What's the current Ichimoku Cloud signal for BTC-USDT — is it bullish or bearish, and is the price above or below the cloud?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single, ready-to-use Ichimoku Cloud trading signal for a specific crypto pair without building your own indicator logic. It is ideal for agents that need a fast, pay-per-call technical signal with no subscription overhead. Prefer this over generic market data APIs when Ichimoku-specific outputs (cloud position, Tenkan/Kijun cross) are required.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported trading pair returns an error (e.g. 404 or 400)
- Binance API unavailability causes upstream data fetch failures
- Pair format mismatch (e.g. using BTC/USDT instead of BTC-USDT) may return an error
- Render.com cold-start latency may cause timeouts on first call after idle period
- Insufficient Ichimoku data (too few candles) may result in null indicator values

## How this service works

Real-time crypto trading signals for agents on live market data (Binance.US, Kraken, Gate, MEXC): the Ichimoku Cloud signal, a confluence signal of six indicators, price levels with a long/short plan, and a market scan of 148 top-200 coins. Pay-per-call via x402.

## Output

A JSON object containing the trading signal (bullish or bearish), current price, Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, Senkou Span A, Senkou Span B, cloud position (above/below cloud), Tenkan-Kijun cross direction, interval (1h), and timestamp — all derived from live Binance data.
