## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time or near-real-time top market movers data sourced from Alpaca Markets and want to avoid API key registration by paying micro-amounts of USDC per call via x402 protocol. Ideal for lightweight, pay-as-you-go financial agents that need gainers/losers data without a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — 402 response with payment required details
- Invalid market_type value — may return empty data array or error code
- No movers data available outside market hours — empty data array returned
- Malformed query parameters — 400 bad request
- Upstream Alpaca data unavailable — error code in response body
