How do I format the symbol ID to get specific exchange data?

CoinAPI uses a specific format: `EXCHANGE_TYPE_BASE_QUOTE`. For example, to get Bitcoin to USD on Bitstamp, use `BITSTAMP_SPOT_BTC_USD`. You can use the `list_symbols` tool to find exact identifiers.

Can I get the current price of Ethereum in Euros?

Yes! Use the `get_specific_rate` tool. Set `asset_id_base` to 'ETH' and `asset_id_quote` to 'EUR'. This will return the real-time average conversion rate.

What timeframes are available for OHLCV data?

The `get_ohlcv` tool supports various periods via the `period_id` parameter, such as `1MIN`, `1HRS`, `1DAY`, `1MTH`, etc. It defaults to `1DAY`.
