trade-log slices ($8/mo-of-data) coming
funding-surface: BTC perpetual funding normalized across Bitnomial/OKX/Hyperliquid/dYdX.
>=3 of 4 venues required; below that the route fails closed (503). Normalized
derivatives intelligence, NOT validated directional alpha.
btc-intel: call before acting on BTC — bias (direction+conviction), regime label/score,
levels (EMA20/50, ATR, RSI, 7D/30D), 72h large on-chain transfer activity. Hourly. Freshness in
X-RCQ-As-Of / X-RCQ-Age-Seconds headers (outside the signed body).
macro-event-risk: cross-asset fragility 0-100 over four frozen channels (BTC fragility, JPY
carry, risk-off, rates) with BOJ/FOMC/CPI/NFP proximity as CONTEXT ONLY — event proximity never
changes the numeric score. Inputs are daily series on a publication lag; USDJPY (FRED H.10)
publishes weekly, so as_of trails the current date. Read freshness.observation_age_days.
btc-dca-indicator: how hard to lean into a systematic BTC DCA budget now. 0-9 score from nine
frozen drivers -> LIGHT (0.5x) / BASE (1.0x) / ACCELERATE (1.5x) / AGGRESSIVE (2.0x).
Scored on the last CLOSED UTC daily bar, so it changes once per day. Historical edge under
forward validation, NOT proven predictive alpha. Market intelligence only: contains no account
state, no position, no execution intent, and is not individualised investment advice.
evm-fees (FREE): current execution cost on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS and
Avalanche C-Chain, in native units and USD, for five reference operations. Hourly.
DESCRIPTIVE PRESENT COST — not a forecast, not a guaranteed rate, not a hedge.
Gas UNIT figures for contract operations are STATED ASSUMPTIONS about typical
implementations, not measurements: only the 21,000-gas native transfer is exact.
Read gas_units_exact per operation before budgeting from any figure.
L2 CAVEAT: on OP-stack chains the L1 data fee is reported separately and added in; if it
could not be read, l1_data_fee.available is false and the costs UNDERSTATE the true total.
On Arbitrum the L1 cost is bundled into gas units at execution time and is NOT modelled here,
so those figures understate — use eth_estimateGas against your own contract.
Percentile context is null until enough history exists; each window states its own
observations, requirement and coverage. Never read a null percentile as "average".

VERIFY: canonicalize body (sorted keys, compact, ensure_ascii=false) -> SHA-256 ->
check signature vs public_key 4bc079775b77a6498b91185f9e5fded294a58463a07c96b74a8c27b9b3f8879d. Demo: https://shadow.rcqsignals.com/
SAFETY: read-only research data; never buy/sell instructions; not investment advice.
