Coin OHLC candles

OHLC candles for a coin: days 1 (30-min candles), 7 or 14 (4-hour), 30 / 90 / 180 / 365 (daily), in any vs currency. Send GET /api/coin-ohlc with the required field coin and pay $0.008 per call over x402 or MPP (there is no free tier). It returns a JSON object with source, fetchedAt, cached, coin, currency and 5 more.

Returns aligned {time, open, high, low, close} bars plus the window's high/low/first/last and % change. The candle sibling of crypto-history, which returns close-only points: use OHLC for technical indicators, range/volatility work and charting. Cached in-process for 60 seconds.

The hosted connector at https://agent402.tools/mcp needs a payment for coin-ohlc; the stdio package pays it from a wallet or from AGENT402_CREDITS_KEY. Local install: npx -y agent402-mcp.

Errors and behavior

• coin is required. An input the tool rejects returns an HTTP 4xx whose body carries error, tool, expected, required and example, so the caller can correct it.
• A paid call that ends in any status of 400 or above is not charged over x402, MPP or a prepaid credits key: settlement is cancelled when the tool fails. The exception is a Tempo push credential, a transfer the buyer sent before the call: it settles before the tool runs, so if the tool then fails the payment is recorded as a refund owed to the paying wallet.
• Wallet-only: this tool reaches the network or stored state, so it has no proof-of-work tier. A prepaid card-credits key (Authorization: Bearer a402_...) also pays it.
• A POST with a JSON body to /api/coin-ohlc is served as this GET, with the body as the input.
• An Idempotency-Key header makes a retried paid call replay the first 200 instead of charging again (an answer larger than 1 MB is not replayed).

Paid call (JavaScript agent)

import { wrapFetchWithPayment } from "@x402/fetch";
import { x402Client } from "@x402/core/client";
import { registerExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm/exact/client";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const client = new x402Client();
client.setSpendControls?.(false); // keep your own spending ceiling in code
registerExactEvmScheme(client, { signer: privateKeyToAccount(KEY) });
const payFetch = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, client);

const res = await payFetch("https://agent402.tools/api/coin-ohlc?coin=bitcoin&days=7&currency=usd");
