## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability sml-cascade-signal-api-68a35966
```

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need live, pay-per-call trading signals for specific asset symbols via the x402 micropayment protocol, particularly for automated trading bots or agents that need enter/exit or position management signals without a subscription commitment.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid 'symbol' query parameter returns an error
- Payment not accepted results in 402 response with no signal data
- Unknown or unsupported asset symbol may return empty or error response
- Network or provider-side downtime may result in timeout or 503

## How this service works

Pay-per-call APIs and a read-only provider check for x402 buyers. Inspect evidence and live terms before a caller-controlled payment; accept delivery with proof.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing live trading/signal data for the requested asset symbol as produced by the SML Cascade engine after successful payment acceptance. Exact fields are route-specific and returned post-payment delivery.
