## 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-perpetuals-trades-summary-6cf78629
```

Example prompt: Pull me a trade summary for BTC-USDT perpetuals on Binance from the last 24 hours using a 1h resolution, up to 100 records.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need historical or recent trade summary data for cryptocurrency perpetual futures contracts across major exchanges like Binance, OKX, Deribit, Bybit, or Hyperliquid. Prefer this over WebSocket streaming when you need batch/historical data rather than real-time tick-by-tick feeds.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid API key returns 401 unauthorized
- Invalid exchange name returns empty data or 400 error
- Invalid instrument name returns empty data array
- Limit exceeds maximum of 1000 returns validation error
- Invalid resolution enum value returns 400 error
- Invalid date range for start/end returns error or empty results
- Payment not received (x402) returns 402 Payment Required

## 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.
