AGENT TUTORIAL
Use CoinLobster to confirm your trading bot
Your bot already decides when to trade. Connect the CoinLobster MCP and, before it commits, it can check that call against what the big money is actually doing right now across 15 exchanges, on-chain, and Hyperliquid. Context, not a prediction.
Connect the MCP
Add the keyless endpoint to your agent or client. Exact per-client steps are on the connect page.

Have your bot check three things before it acts: is the flow unusual for this coin (whale_context), which way is the big money leaning market-wide (market_overview), and where does this pair sit right now (trade_context: price against its own recent average, the cost to hold, how crowded one side is).
Before I long SOL, are the big buyers or sellers in front right now, and is that unusual for it?
Market-wide, which coins is the big money net buying, and which net selling?
Give me the pre-trade picture for SOL/USD in one line.Pull the raw price bars and run your own indicators
CoinLobster does not ship a moving-average or oscillator (every bot library already has those). Instead it hands your bot the near-live price bars with price_candles, so your bot computes exactly the indicators it already trusts. The bars carry how old the newest one is, so a live feed is never confused with a stopped one.
Give me the last 300 hourly bars for ETH/USD so my bot can run its own indicators.
# price_candles returns { t, o, h, l, c, v }, oldest first, near-live.Gate the entry on a plain rule
Wrap it in one rule: take the trade only when the big money is on the same side and the coin is not already crowded the way you want to enter. Every field is descriptive market data, so your bot keeps the decision. Nothing here is a forecast.
