## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, AI-inferred directional signal (bullish/bearish) for a specific cryptocurrency and want the result backed by an on-device GPU language model rather than a rule-based or traditional ML approach. It is especially useful for agents that need lightweight price sentiment without integrating a full financial data platform.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or unsupported symbol returns an error or empty forecast
- Network or GPU inference timeout may produce delayed or failed responses
- Model may return low-confidence or vague directional language
- Stale price data if the inference node is not synced with live market feeds
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) if USDC micropayment is not resolved

## How this service works
