## 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 kronos-futures-decision-crypto-forgemesh-io-d1fbfebe
```

Example prompt: What's the Kronos futures decision for ETH right now? I have $10,000 in equity, a max leverage of 3x, and I'm willing to risk no more than 1% per trade — give me the full package with direction, stop-loss, take-profit, position size, and funding cost.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a complete, actionable perpetual-futures trade plan in one call — direction, sizing, leverage, and levels — rather than assembling these components from separate signal, range, and funding endpoints. It is ideal for automated trading agents that need a ready-to-execute (though not auto-executed) decision package. Prefer it over the signal-only or range-only sibling endpoints when position sizing and risk management parameters (equity, max leverage, max loss) are available and you want a fully calibrated recommendation including funding cost impact.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported symbol — only BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA are accepted; other tickers return an error
- Missing or invalid equity value — position sizing fields will be absent or zeroed
- Leverage out of range — max_leverage must be between 1 and 5; values outside this range may be rejected or clamped
- Signal unavailable — if Kronos data is stale or the market is in cooldown, direction may return FLAT with a warning
- Payment failure — x402 micropayment of $0.15 USDC must succeed before response is returned
- max_loss_pct too small or too large — may produce degenerate position sizes or warnings

## How this service works

Returns a perpetual-futures decision package for BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, or ADA: direction LONG / SHORT / FLAT from the Kronos signal, stop-loss and take-profit on the calibrated 80% range, a leverage cap that keeps liquidation outside 2x the stop, liquidation price, risk-based position size for your equity and max loss, and live perp funding cost over the horizon — turns a bearish signal into a sized short instead of staying out. No exchange execution; market intelligence only.

## Output

A structured decision package containing: trade direction (LONG, SHORT, or FLAT), calibrated stop-loss and take-profit price levels (based on the 80% empirical price range), a leverage cap designed to keep liquidation outside 2x the stop distance, the computed liquidation price, a risk-based position size in USD given the provided equity and max-loss fraction, live perpetual funding rate cost over the trade horizon, and any warnings or risk disclosures relevant to the position.
