How this service works
Bid–ask spread as percent of mid for cross-asset compare. Call when comparing liquidity across price levels and assets. Returns spread percent of mid as deterministic JSON for $0.001 USDC via x402 on Base. First-party local math only—no RPC, live market feed, API keys, storage, or mediagen. Advisory only; the caller owns capital, risk, and production controls.
Output
Returns a deterministic JSON object containing the bid-ask spread expressed as a percentage of the mid-price (calculated as (ask - bid) / mid * 100), enabling normalized liquidity comparison across assets at different price levels.
Example use cases
Liquidity comparison across asset classes
“I'm comparing liquidity between a stock and a futures contract — the stock has a bid of 150.10 and ask of 150.30, and the futures have bid 4990.00 and ask 4991.00. Can you calculate the spread percent of mid for each so I can compare them on equal footing?”
Options chain spread screening
“I'm screening options contracts and want to filter out illiquid ones. For an option quoted at bid 2.35 and ask 2.65, what's the spread as a percent of the mid price?”
Trading cost estimation before entry
“Before I enter this trade, can you tell me the spread percent of mid? The current bid is 0.4820 and the ask is 0.4850 — I want to know how much the spread is costing me relative to the price.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/spread-pctWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, deterministic, local-math computation of spread percent with no external data dependencies — ideal for normalizing bid-ask spreads across assets at wildly different price levels (e.g. comparing a $1 asset to a $5000 asset). Prefer this over manual calculation when you need consistent, auditable results in a pipeline. It is not suitable for fetching live market quotes — caller must supply bid and ask values from their own data source.
Side effects
- Missing bid or ask field returns a validation error
- Ask less than or equal to bid produces an invalid or zero/negative spread — may return an error or unexpected result
- Non-numeric input for bid or ask causes a schema validation failure
- Bid or ask of zero causes division-by-zero in mid-price calculation
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance blocks the request via x402 protocol
