Financial Risk Intelligence — Live Market Stress & Anomaly Feed

$0.01 / query 15 min refresh CoinGecko composite

financial-risk-intel-live is a live composite financial risk feed for agents that need a real-time macro risk posture signal. Each response delivers a market stress index (Low / Elevated / High), an equity volatility proxy derived from crypto market moves, BTC and ETH 24-hour price deltas, and a plain-language risk summary — all in a single $0.01 query. Updated every 15 minutes. Inspect for free, pay via x402.

One call, full risk context: Treasury management agents and DeFi strategy pipelines can condition position sizing, rebalancing triggers, and spending decisions on a single structured risk posture signal — without querying multiple financial APIs or building their own composite logic.
