Example prompt: What's the current squeeze score for HYPE on Hyperliquid — is funding stretched, open interest high, and are whales positioned against the crowd?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need a pre-computed, scored squeeze signal for HYPE with reasoning, rather than raw funding or open interest data. It combines multiple signals (funding, OI, whale positioning) into one actionable number. Prefer this over the generic /squeeze endpoint if you only need HYPE data and want lower latency and cost. Prefer over building your own composite signal if you lack whale-flow data.

## Known failure modes

- Market symbol not found or delisted — returns 404 or empty data
- Stale underlying data if Hyperliquid feed is delayed — score may lag real-time conditions
- Score at boundary values (0 or 100) may indicate data insufficiency rather than absolute certainty
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 protocol — returns 402 or 429

## How this service works
