## 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 x402stock-short-squeeze-signal-17eefda9
```

Example prompt: Pull the full short-squeeze picture for GME — I want short interest with days-to-cover, the short-sale volume ratio, any fails-to-deliver data, and that combined squeeze signal all in one shot.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need all three short-squeeze data dimensions — short interest, short volume, and fails-to-deliver — in a single call at $0.04 USDC. It is more cost-effective than calling three separate endpoints and provides a precomputed squeeze signal. Ideal for agents that need to quickly assess short-squeeze risk for a US stock without orchestrating multiple data sources.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or invalid ticker returns 404 or empty data sections
- Non-US or OTC ticker may have incomplete or missing short interest data
- Fails-to-deliver section may be absent or stale if SEC data is not yet published for the period
- Short volume data may lag by one trading day
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance returns 402

## How this service works

The short-squeeze picture for a US stock in one call: bi-weekly short interest with days-to-cover, daily short-sale volume with short-volume ratio, and settlement fails-to-deliver, plus a computed signal pulling the headline gauges together. Replaces three separate calls (short-interest + short-volume + fails-to-deliver) at a lower combined price. Sections degrade independently. From x402stock

## Output

A JSON object containing: bi-weekly short interest figures with days-to-cover; daily short-sale volume and short-volume ratio; settlement fails-to-deliver counts; and a computed squeeze signal that aggregates the headline gauges into a single indicator. Sections degrade independently if underlying data is unavailable.
