Methodalgo Market Intel Explorer

Fetch MethodAlgo crypto market intelligence with methodalgo-cli. Use when: checking crypto news, trading signals, token unlocks, ETF flows, chart snapshots, economic calendar events, macro data, BTC/ETH dominance, total crypto market cap, Fear & Greed, Altseason Index, or Binance public spot/futures prices, ticker, movers, order books, trades, klines, funding, OI, long/short sentiment, basis, exchange-info, and allowlisted raw endpoints.

MethodAlgo Market Intel Explorer Skill

Use this skill as the AI-facing routing layer for methodalgo-cli. Keep direct CLI calls in JSON mode unless the user explicitly asks for human-readable output.

Install And Auth

Install or update the CLI:

bash

npm install -g methodalgo-cli
methodalgo --version

Use methodalgo-cli >= 1.0.36 for macro and totals; use >= 1.0.26 for Binance public market data.

Most MethodAlgo service commands require METHODALGO_API_KEY or methodalgo login:

bash

methodalgo login

Authentication rules:

• news, signals, snapshot, calendar, macro, and totals require MethodAlgo service access.
• METHODALGO_API_KEY is required for normal MethodAlgo CLI service usage and login flows.
• methodalgo binance ... uses Binance public endpoints and does not require a MethodAlgo API key or Binance API key.
• The CLI prioritizes METHODALGO_API_KEY over local login config.

Troubleshooting:

Error	Action
Authentication Required / 401 / 403	Set METHODALGO_API_KEY, run methodalgo login, or verify the key at https://account.methodalgo.com/account/api-keys.
methodalgo not found	Install with npm install -g methodalgo-cli.
macro / totals missing	Update to methodalgo-cli >= 1.0.36.
Binance command missing	Update to methodalgo-cli >= 1.0.26.
Network timeout / fred request failed	Check access to methodalgo.com, upstream macro/FRED services, or Binance public API endpoints.

Reference Loading

Load only the reference needed for the task:

• references/command-reference.md: full parameter tables and command catalog for snapshot, news, calendar, macro, totals, and Binance.
• references/signal-channels.md: channel mechanisms and detailed details field meanings.
• references/sample-output.md: compact JSON shapes for parsing and response validation.
• references/output-shape-catalog.md: field-level output shape catalog for command variants.
• references/ai-prompts.md: scenario templates for daily reports, symbol scans, liquidation monitoring, macro analysis, and Binance scans.

Command Index

Always include --json for structured output.

bash

methodalgo news --type <article|breaking|onchain|report> --limit <N> --json
methodalgo news --type article --search "Bitcoin" --limit 5 --json
methodalgo signals <channel> --limit <N> --json

Net liquidity	methodalgo macro liquidity --tail 52 --json
Crypto-wide totals	methodalgo totals --json
BTC dominance / Fear & Greed / Altseason	`methodalgo totals --history 30d
Binance spot price	methodalgo binance price BTCUSDT --json
Binance futures price	methodalgo binance price BTCUSDT.P --json
Binance futures funding / OI / sentiment	methodalgo binance funding BTCUSDT.P --json; methodalgo binance oi BTCUSDT.P --period 5m --json; methodalgo binance sentiment BTCUSDT.P --period 5m --json

Signals Schema Lock

Use methodalgo signals <channel> --limit <N> --json.

Standard signal channels return an array of message objects. Each message may contain id, timestamp, attachments, image, and a nested signals array. Each nested signal may contain title, description, direction, and channel-specific details. Full examples live in references/sample-output.md.

Protected details field map:

Channel	Required details fields
breakout-*	Symbol, TimeFrame, Type (UP / DOWN), BreakPrice, Exchange
liquidation	Symbol, Side, Quantity, Average Price, Liquidation Price, Position Total
exhaustion-*	Type, Timeframe, Exhaustion Side, Safety, Tip, Exchange
golden-pit-*	Pattern, Safety
etf-tracker	Net Inflow, 7 Days Avg.
market-today	Variable Discord-style summary fields; do not use it as the structured metric source.

Signal interpretation:

• exhaustion-buyer is bearish buyer exhaustion.
• exhaustion-seller is bullish seller exhaustion.
• If CLI help text conflicts with these exhaustion directions, follow this Schema Lock.
• market-today is a Discord-style summary stream. For structured BTC Dominance, ETH Dominance, Total Market Cap, Fear & Greed, and Altseason Index values, call methodalgo totals --json or methodalgo totals <metric> --json.

token-unlock is the special-case channel: it returns a root object shaped as { signals: [...], updatedAt }, not a root array. Token unlock items include ts, symbol, perc, progress, circSup, countDown, marketCap, unlockToken, and unlockTokenVal. When showing countdowns, calculate live timing from ts and updatedAt rather than trusting countDown as immutable text.

Market Data Rules

News:

• article normally includes richer excerpt, analysis, and url.
• breaking, onchain, and report can omit article-style fields.
• For Chinese output, prefer title.zh, excerpt.zh, and analysis.zh when present.
• News limit can be as high as 500; use 50-100 for broad time coverage.

Macro:

• Use methodalgo macro ... for server-side macro/FRED-derived data. The CLI no longer needs a local FRED key.
• methodalgo macro liquidity computes Net Liquidity from Fed Assets - RRP - TGA and is the default liquidity command for BTC macro analysis.
• Macro commands can still fail on upstream service/network errors such as fred request failed; surface the failure instead of fabricating macro values.
• For subcommand tables and high-alpha series IDs such as FEDFUNDS, WALCL, M2SL, RRPONTSYD, WTREGEN, CPIAUCSL, DGS10, DGS2, REAINTRATREARAT10Y, DTWEXBGS, and VIXCLS, read references/command-reference.md.

Totals:

• Use methodalgo totals --json for crypto-wide structured metrics.
• Supported metrics include btc-dominance, eth-dominance, total-market-cap, fear-greed, and altseason-index.
• Plain methodalgo totals shows human CLI help; methodalgo totals --json is the AI structured aggregate endpoint.
• Use signals market-today only when the user wants the Discord-style market summary stream.

Binance:

• BTCUSDT means spot.
• BTCUSDT.P means USD-M perpetual futures; the CLI sends BTCUSDT to Binance futures APIs.
• Use --market futures for list-style futures queries such as movers.
• funding, oi, sentiment, and basis are futures-only.
• Binance --json often returns direct Binance API shapes; do not assume every subcommand has the same wrapper.
• raw is restricted to allowlisted public endpoints. Account, order, trading, signed, and user-data endpoints are intentionally blocked.

Two-Phase Fetch Strategy

Use a low-cost preview first, then deepen only where the data points:

1. Preview: fetch 5-10 items for news, signals, totals, or Binance market data.
2. Deep dive: use --after, --search, symbol filtering, or larger limits after identifying relevant IDs, symbols, or themes.

Examples:

bash

methodalgo signals breakout-mtf --limit 5 --json
methodalgo signals breakout-mtf --limit 100 --after "msgId" --json
methodalgo news --type article --search "SOL" --limit 10 --json

Scenario Shortcuts

Scenario	Commands
Daily market overview	totals --json; signals etf-tracker; news article; news breaking; optionally signals market-today.
Specific coin deep scan	Search news, inspect breakout signals, fetch Binance futures price/funding/OI/sentiment, then fetch snapshot.
Liquidation and reversal monitor	signals liquidation; signals exhaustion-buyer; signals exhaustion-seller.
Token unlock check	signals token-unlock --limit 1 --json; parse root signals.
Macro regime check	macro dashboard; macro recession; macro liquidity --tail 52; optional macro compare or macro zscore.
Binance microstructure	binance price; binance klines; binance funding; binance oi; binance sentiment.

Output Rules

• Parse JSON with structured logic, not string matching.
• Surface authentication and version errors explicitly.
• Do not collapse market-today and totals; they serve different data shapes.
• Do not normalize away .P when presenting user-facing futures symbols.
• If a task needs exact parameter choices, load references/command-reference.md.
• If a task needs sample JSON, load references/sample-output.md.
• If a task needs field coverage for less common command variants, load references/output-shape-catalog.md.
