🤖 Polymarket Copy Trading Bot (Rust)

 The Polymarket Copy Trading Bot is a high-performance automation system built in Rust, designed to mirror selected traders on Polymarket with precision, speed, and risk control.

As prediction markets become more competitive, edge increasingly comes from execution quality and positioning speed. This bot allows you to systematically replicate trades from experienced wallets while maintaining strict control over capital allocation and exposure.

🚀 Why Copy Trading on Polymarket?

Polymarket’s order book reacts quickly — especially in short-duration markets like 5-minute crypto “Up or Down” contracts. Skilled traders often enter early, size strategically, and adjust positions dynamically.

Copy trading enables you to:

  • Mirror multiple traders simultaneously

  • Diversify across different trading styles

  • Remove emotional decision-making

  • Apply structured risk management

  • Scale exposure efficiently

Instead of manually watching the market all day, you automate replication with defined logic.

⚙️ Performance-Focused Architecture

Built in Rust, the bot delivers:

  • ⚡ Low-latency execution

  • 🔄 Efficient asynchronous monitoring

  • 🧠 Reliable state management

  • 🛡️ Memory safety and stability

In fast markets, milliseconds can determine profitability. Rust ensures consistent and fast execution performance.

🧠 Core Capabilities

👥 Multi-Trader Support

Follow several wallet addresses at once. Diversification reduces dependency on a single trader’s strategy.

📏 Flexible Copy Strategies

Choose how you replicate trades:

Percentage Mode – Copy a % of the original order

Fixed Mode – Trade a consistent USD size

Adaptive Mode – Dynamically scale based on logic or capital

🔝 Tiered Scaling

Apply different multipliers for large vs. small trades, helping protect capital during high-risk entries.

📊 Accurate Position Tracking

Tracks buys, sells, partial fills, and balance changes to maintain synchronization with copied wallets.

📦 Order Aggregation

Combine multiple small signals into fewer larger orders to improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary activity.

🛡️ Slippage Protection

Built-in guards prevent execution at unacceptable prices during rapid order book movements.

💾 Persistent State with MongoDB

All trades and position data are stored, allowing recovery after restarts and detailed performance analysis.

🧪 Preview Mode for Safe Testing

Before deploying live capital, enable preview mode to:

Monitor copied trades

Validate sizing logic

Stress test configuration

Analyze behavior in real-time

No real trades are executed until you switch to live mode.

🏎️ Infrastructure & Latency

In prediction markets, infrastructure matters. Many serious traders deploy bots in low-latency environments close to blockchain nodes to minimize delay.

Faster execution means:

Better price alignment

Lower missed-entry risk

Improved synchronization with copied traders

🎯 Who Is This For?

This system is ideal for:

Advanced Polymarket traders

Automation-focused crypto users

Developers experimenting with execution strategies

Users building diversified systematic exposure

It is not a shortcut to guaranteed profit. It is a structured tool for disciplined automation.

⚠️ Risk Considerations

Copy trading does not eliminate risk.

Traders you copy can lose

Slippage can occur

Market liquidity changes rapidly

Short-duration markets are volatile

Always:

Start small

Use max order caps

Test in preview mode

Monitor performance continuously

Automation amplifies both good strategy and poor risk management.

🔮 Final Thoughts

The Polymarket Copy Trading Bot provides a professional-grade foundation for systematic trade replication. With real-time monitoring, configurable risk controls, and Rust-powered speed, it transforms copy trading into an infrastructure-level solution rather than a manual experiment.

In modern prediction markets, execution is strategy.

Trade responsibly. Automate intelligently. 🚀

For builders, traders, or anyone curious: the system is open for collaboration and improvement.
