Trade Polymarket's crypto binary markets with 4 automated strategies. Just say what you want!

Available market durations (pick one):

  • 5-minute: BTC only - ultra-high frequency HFT
  • 15-minute: All assets (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP) - balanced, most popular
  • 1-hour: All assets - faster swing trading
  • 4-hour: All assets - multi-hour trends
  • Daily: All assets - position trading, overnight holds

Each round has UP/DOWN token pairs that settle at 0 or 1 using Chainlink price feeds.

Trading Strategy by Duration:

  • 5-min: Ultra-high frequency, requires tight risk management, penny_clipper focus
  • 1-hour: Balanced entry points, good for mean reversion + momentum
  • 4-hour: Swing trading, catch multi-hour trends, focus on momentum
  • Daily: Position trading, macroeconomic drivers, long holding periods

Exit Logic

Positions are monitored every 500ms with 9 exit types (in priority order):

  1. Force exit - < 30s before expiry (15-min) or < 10s (5-min)
  2. Take profit - PnL >= TP% (default 15%)
  3. Stop loss - PnL <= -SL% (default 12%)
  4. Ratchet floor - Progressive giveback from confirmed high-water mark
  5. Trailing stop - Tightens as expiry approaches
  6. Depth collapse - Orderbook depth dropped 60%+ while price dropping
  7. Stale profit - Profitable but bid unchanged for 7s
  8. Stagnant profit - At +3% for 13s with no progress
  9. Time exit - Approaching minimum time left
