Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 laevitas-options-gex-profile-7eda6e40
```

Example prompt: Pull the dealer GEX profile for BTC options on Deribit from the last 7 days at 1-hour resolution, up to 500 data points.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need time-series gamma exposure (GEX) profile data for crypto options markets, particularly for understanding dealer hedging pressure, gamma walls, or market maker risk positioning. Prefer this over generic options endpoints when specifically analyzing dealer GEX dynamics and how gamma exposure evolves over time across crypto derivatives exchanges like Deribit.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported exchange name returns empty data or error
- Unsupported resolution enum value returns 400 validation error
- Start/end timestamps in wrong format cause query failure
- Limit out of range (below 1 or above 1000) returns validation error
- Missing API key or invalid x402 payment returns 401/402 authentication error
- No data available for the requested time range returns empty data array

## How this service works

Professional market data API for crypto derivatives, spot markets, prediction markets, Hyperliquid HyperCore data, proprietary volatility surfaces, and analytics.

## Authentication

Use an API key for authenticated REST requests:

```http
X-API-Key: your-api-key-here
```

Most data endpoints also support x402 pay-per-request without an API key.

## Pagination

Paginated endpoints return the cursor at `meta.next_cursor`. Pass that value back as the `cursor` query parameter to fetch the next page.

## WebSocket Streaming

Real-time streams are documented at `/websocket`.

| Data | Channel pattern |
| --- | --- |
| Trades | `trades.{market}.{exchange}.{instrument}` |
| OHLC ticker | `ohlc.ticker.{market}.{exchange}.{instrument}.{timeframe}` |
| OHLCVT | `ohlc.vt.{market}.{exchange}.{instrument}.{timeframe}` |

Variables: `market` is one of `perpetuals`, `futures`, `options`, or `spot`; `timeframe` is one of `1m`, `5m`, `15m`, `1h`, `4h`, or `1d`.

## Quick Start

```bash
curl "https://apiv2.laevitas.ch/api/v1/futures/ohlcvt?exchange=deribit&instrument_name=BTC-PERPETUAL" \
  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key-here"
