## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick daily leaderboard of trading strategies ranked by recent performance, especially when you want on-chain-verifiable backtest provenance and no account signup. Prefer it over generic market data feeds when the goal is strategy discovery and ranking rather than raw price data.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not processed — 402 response if USDC payment is not attached
- No strategies available for the day if market data is delayed
- Stale or cached results if the endpoint hasn't refreshed for the current day
- Incomplete return data for some horizons marked as computed*
