## 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-symbol-snapshot-67bd3dc5
```

Example prompt: What's the current buy/sell pressure and trade signal for ETHUSD right now — is there strong buying activity and how confident is the model?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need an immediate, single-symbol trade-flow intelligence snapshot with a directional signal and confidence score — especially before placing a trade or answering a time-sensitive question about one asset. It covers both on-chain crypto pairs and 24/7 tokenized US equities, making it useful outside traditional market hours. Prefer this over candle or OHLCV endpoints when you need a pre-digested buy/sell verdict rather than raw price history.

- Symbol string malformed or missing returns a 400 Bad Request
