Crypto Price Prediction

Fetches next-hour predicted price for BTC/ETH from external API (zeabur). Supports BTCUSDT and ETHUSDT symbols only.

Crypto Price Prediction Skill

Fetches next-hour predicted price for BTC or ETH from an external prediction API (hosted on zeabur). Not a local technical analysis model — just an API wrapper.

• API source: https://myfastapi.zeabur.app/v1/demo/predictions/next_hour/{BTC|ETH}
• Symbols supported: BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT only
• Horizon: 1 hour (fixed — API limitation)
• Output: Predicted price at next hour mark (HKT)

Repository: https://github.com/StevenHo1394/openclaw/tree/main/skills/crypto-price-prediction

When to Use

• Quick next-hour price check for BTC/ETH
• When you want an external model's prediction instead of local TA

Not For

• Other symbols (SOL, BNB, etc.)
• Horizons other than 1 hour
• Local technical analysis (no Binance/CoinGecko fallback here)

Installation

Self-contained. Python 3.8+ stdlib only. Node.js 18+ for OpenClaw wrapper.
