Example Usage
Sample Prompts for Claude
When working with Claude, try these specific technical queries:
- "Analyze the JUP token on Solana. Fetch price, volume, and top liquidity pools."
- "Compare trading volume between Uniswap V3 and SushiSwap on Ethereum."
- "Get the 7-day OHLCV data for SOL/USDC on Raydium and plot a price chart."
- "Find the top 5 pools by liquidity on Fantom network and analyze their fee structures."
- "Get recent transactions for the ETH/USDT pool on Uniswap and analyze buy vs sell pressure."
- "Which tokens have seen >10% price increases in the last 24h on Binance Smart Chain?"
- "Search for all pools containing the ARB token and rank them by volume."
- "Retrieve OHLCV data for BTC/USDT to analyze volatility patterns and build a price prediction model."
Rate Limits & Performance
- **Free Tier Limits**: 60 requests per minute
- **Response Time**: 100-500ms for most endpoints (network dependent)
- **Data Freshness**: Pool and token data updated every 15-30s
- **Error Handling**: 429 status codes indicate rate limiting
- **OHLCV Data Availability**: Historical data typically available from token/pool creation date
Troubleshooting
**Common Issues:**
- **Rate limiting**: If receiving 429 errors, reduce request frequency
- **Missing data**: Some newer tokens/pools may have incomplete historical data
- **Timeout errors**: Large data requests may take longer, consider pagination
- **Network errors**: Check network connectivity, the service requires internet access
- **OHLCV limitations**: Maximum range between start and end dates is 1 year; use pagination for longer timeframes
