## 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

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need a curated, ranked shortlist of conservative 5-minute trading strategies screened for minimal drawdown, backed by on-chain verifiable backtest data. Prefer it over generic market data endpoints when you want pre-filtered risk-adjusted strategy recommendations rather than raw price data or unscreened strategy lists. Ideal for AI trading agents that need to select a strategy rather than compute one from scratch.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC balance — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid or malformed request headers — returns 400 Bad Request
- Strategy database temporarily unavailable — returns 503 Service Unavailable
- No strategies currently meet the low-drawdown criteria — returns empty results list
- On-chain data lag may cause stale return percentages for very recent windows
