## 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-low-drawdown-daily-strategies-5a8c33e3
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the safest daily trading strategies from ManyLives — the ones with the lowest max drawdown that are still profitable over the last 30 days?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a curated, pre-ranked shortlist of low-risk daily trading strategies rather than building your own screening logic. It is ideal for agents that need to minimize drawdown as the primary constraint before optimizing for returns, and for use cases where verifiable on-chain backtest provenance matters. Prefer this over general market data endpoints when the goal is strategy selection rather than raw price or indicator data.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or invalid — returns 402 Payment Required
- No strategies match the low-drawdown criteria for the current 30-day window — returns empty results list
- Network or blockchain latency causes delayed on-chain source verification
- Malformed query parameters return 400 Bad Request
- Rate limiting if too many calls are made in quick succession

## Output

A JSON object containing a ranked list of strategies filtered for minimum drawdown and daily profitability over 30 days. Each strategy entry includes a strategy ID (e.g. CRY-1h-042), rank, and per-time-window results showing return percentage and whether the backtest source is on-chain (verifiable) or computed. A human-readable criteria summary and difficulty level (e.g. intermediate) are also returned.
