## 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 oblique-markets-us-equity-snapshot-7d9beae0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull a fresh daily OHLCV snapshot for TSLA over the last 30 trading days and include SMA-20 and RSI-14 indicators.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a guaranteed-fresh US equity OHLCV snapshot with optional technical indicators and explicit freshness/source attribution. It is especially valuable when data quality and recency are critical — the endpoint refuses stale data rather than silently serving it. Prefer it over generic financial data APIs when you need built-in SMA/EMA/RSI computation bundled with the price data in a single call, and when operating in an x402 micropayment agent workflow at $0.01 per call.

## Known failure modes

- Ticker not found or not US-listed — returns error refusing settlement
- Data is stale or not fresh enough — endpoint refuses without returning data
- Invalid interval value outside allowed enum (1d, 1wk, 1mo) — schema validation error
- Lookback integer too large or market closed — may return partial or refused response
- Payment not included or insufficient — x402 payment required error

## How this service works

Use when an agent needs us equity snapshot. Returns Fresh US equity OHLCV snapshot for one ticker and interval with bounded lookback, optional SMA/EMA/RSI indicators, source attribution and freshness evidence; stale or unavailable data is refused without settlement. $0.01.

## Output

Returns a structured JSON object containing OHLCV (open, high, low, close, volume) bars for the requested ticker, interval, and lookback window. Optionally includes computed SMA-20, EMA-20, and/or RSI-14 values per bar. Response includes source attribution and freshness evidence (e.g. timestamp of data). If the data is stale or unavailable, the endpoint refuses to return a result rather than serving bad data.
