Frequently Asked Questions

When do snapshots update?

Snapshots are generated every 6 hours, aligned to H4 candle closes: approximately 00:00, 06:00, 12:00, and 18:00 UTC. Each cycle analyzes all cached symbols across M30, H1, H4, and D1 timeframes.

How am I billed for unlocks?

Each unlock costs $0.01 and is deducted from your account balance. You can pre-load balance via crypto payment. Unlocking the same symbol+timeframe+cycle twice does not charge you again.

Can I get insights for all timeframes at once?

The cards endpoint returns data for one timeframe at a time. Make separate calls for M30, H1, H4, and D1 to see all available timeframes.

Is teaser data really free?

Yes. The overview and cards endpoints are completely free and do not count against your API quota. Only the unlock endpoint has a cost ($0.01 per report).

How many snapshots are in each cycle?

Approximately 200 snapshots per cycle (52 symbols x 4 timeframes). The exact count varies based on which symbols have active market data at that time.
