## 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 market-intelligence-api-snapshot-single-asset-002b386e
```

Example prompt: What's the current price, buy pressure, and signal confidence for ETHUSD right now — filtering out bots and MEV?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the cheapest ($0.001) real-time, single-asset intelligence snapshot with on-chain buy pressure cleaned of bots, MEV, and arbitrage — especially useful before executing a trade or answering a market question about a specific crypto pair or tokenized US stock. Prefer it over broader multi-asset or fundamentals endpoints when you only need one asset's live signal.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported symbol returns an error (e.g. unknown ticker)
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance results in 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or network timeout may return 429 or 503
- Symbol case sensitivity issues may cause lookup failures
- Data freshness may lag during extreme network congestion

## How this service works

Use for the cheapest live read of one asset ($0.001). Returns price, price change, buy pressure from on-chain swaps (arbitrage, MEV and bots excluded), signal, event, confidence and trade count for a crypto asset or tokenized US stock.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the asset's current price, price change, on-chain buy pressure (cleaned of arbitrage, MEV, and bot activity), a directional signal, any notable market event, a confidence score, and a trade count — all reflecting real human-driven trade flow.
