## 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-spot-ohlcvt-historical-data-f269367d
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 500 daily OHLCVT candles for BTC-USDT spot on Binance from Laevitas, starting from January 1 2024 through June 30 2024.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need historical candlestick (OHLCVT) data specifically for spot markets across major crypto exchanges like Binance, OKX, Bybit, or Deribit. Prefer it over WebSocket channels when you need historical rather than real-time data, and over futures/options endpoints when dealing with spot instruments. Good for backtesting, charting, and market analysis workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid API key returns 401 unauthorized
- Unknown exchange or instrument name returns empty data array or 404
- Invalid resolution value returns 400 bad request
- Start/end date out of available data range returns empty data array
- Limit exceeds maximum of 1000 returns validation error
- Malformed date string in start/end parameters returns 400
- x402 payment failure results in 402 response requiring USDC payment on Base

## 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`.

| --- | --- |
| 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`.
