## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability manylives-5-minute-best-hit-rate-strategies-06e93992
```

Example prompt: Pull up the ManyLives leaderboard of 5-minute trading strategies ranked by hit rate — I want to see which ones have been most accurate at calling up/down moves over the last 7 days, with their return percentages.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a ready-made, ranked shortlist of the most accurate 5-minute directional trading strategies based on recent (7-day) hit rate, particularly when you want on-chain verifiable performance data rather than self-reported backtests. It is ideal for agents that need to quickly select a strategy to follow or compare without running their own backtests. Prefer it over generic market data endpoints when the goal is strategy selection by accuracy rather than raw price data.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — returns 402 Payment Required
- Strategy database temporarily unavailable — returns 503 or timeout
- No strategies meet the 5-minute hit-rate criteria for the current 7-day window — returns empty results list
- Malformed request parameters — returns 400 with validation error
- Network or Base chain latency causing stale on-chain data — results may be marked as computed rather than on-chain

## How this service works

Pay-per-call tools for people building AI agents: live web search and page contents, point-in-time crypto market data and news for backtests (no lookahead), verifiable track records of 1,000 crypto strategies locked on the Base network, company profiles, quick AI and batch prices. Ask us to turn a public website into a JSON endpoint. Pay per call, no account, free trial.

## Output

A ranked JSON list of trading strategies sorted by hit rate on 5-minute intervals over the last 7 days. Each entry includes a strategy ID, rank, performance data across multiple time windows (e.g. 1h, 5y), return percentages, and the data source (on-chain verified or computed). The list is labeled by difficulty level (e.g. intermediate) and accompanied by the ranking criteria used.
