## 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 ohlcv-candles-api-by-synthora-abc701c5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 100 OHLCV candles for BTC/USDT on a 1-hour interval — I need them for backtesting a moving average crossover strategy.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need OHLCV candlestick data for cryptocurrency pairs for backtesting trading strategies, generating technical signals, or feeding price-action algorithms. It supports arbitrary intervals and symbols, making it flexible for both real-time and historical data needs. The free-first-3-calls model makes it low-risk to test. Prefer over general-purpose market data APIs when you specifically need structured OHLCV bars rather than ticker snapshots or order book data.
