Use Case

LLM Trading Agents

Give Claude, ChatGPT, or your custom LLM real-time market context. Structured indicator data + natural-language summaries = LLM agents that reason about markets, not hallucinate about them.

The Challenge

LLMs are excellent at reasoning, but they have no access to real-time market data. Asking ChatGPT "should I buy EURUSD?" gets a generic disclaimer, not a data-driven answer. To build a useful trading agent, you need to ground the LLM with current, factual market data — indicator values, price action, volatility metrics, and market sentiment. The data needs to be structured enough for the LLM to interpret, and you need a natural-language summary it can synthesize into advice.

How TickAtlas Solves It

LLM-Ready /v1/summary

Natural-language market analysis with bias, confidence, key levels, and supporting evidence. Drop straight into your LLM prompt.

Structured Indicator Data

42 indicators as clean JSON. LLMs can parse "RSI: 72.3, MACD histogram: -0.0015" better than raw OHLCV candles.

Function Calling / Tool Use

Define TickAtlas endpoints as LLM tools. The agent decides when to check RSI, scan for setups, or get a summary.

Multi-Symbol Context

/v1/multi fetches indicators across multiple pairs in one call. Give your LLM a complete market picture in a single prompt injection.

Key Endpoints

GET /v1/summary?symbol=EURUSD

Natural-language market analysis — the primary LLM context source

GET /v1/multi?symbols=EURUSD,GBPUSD,XAUUSD&indicators=rsi,macd,adx

Structured multi-symbol data for broad market context

GET /v1/screener

LLM tool: "find symbols matching these conditions"

GET /v1/indicator

LLM tool: "check this specific indicator for a symbol"
