I've been trading on Polymarket for a while, focusing on short-term crypto momentum plays. After refining a delta-momentum + beat-cross strategy, I packaged it into a ready-to-run tool so other traders can test and run the same system.
The core idea is simple but powerful:
- Monitor live price feeds for BTC, ETH, SOL (and others).
- Detect significant momentum spikes (USD delta thresholds over a lookback window).
- Automatically resolve direction using the opening "beat" price.
- Place limit buys on corresponding Polymarket up/down markets.
This isn't random betting — it's systematic edge-hunting on high-frequency prediction markets.
Key Features
- Real-time monitoring and execution on Polymarket's CLOB.
- Built-in risk management and position sizing.
- Configurable via
config.json(symbols, thresholds, trade size, simulation mode). - Detailed logging for trades and performance.
- Designed specifically for crypto momentum and event-driven prediction markets.
Proven Track Record
The strategy behind this bot has delivered strong results in live conditions:
- +$22K realized profit all-time with a steady equity curve.
- High-conviction wins across sports, tech, and macro events.
- Single-session highs like +$1,229 on momentum bursts.
- Battle-tested in competitions (e.g., Hive World Cup on a $500 starting bankroll).
- 900+ resolved predictions and compounding PnL on the live dashboard.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always paper trade first.
Quick Start Guide
- Download the ready package from the repo.
- Run once → it auto-generates
config.json. - Add your Polymarket wallet details (private key, proxy address).
- Start in
simulation_mode: trueto test safely. - Switch to live when you're comfortable and tweak momentum thresholds conservatively.
Security note: Never share keys or commit them anywhere.
Why Share This?
Polymarket is exploding, and manual trading can't keep up with momentum windows. This gives traders a plug-and-play way to participate with a proven framework — while keeping the proprietary engine logic private.

Man this is clean. The fact that you packaged it with a ready Windows build and simulation mode makes it actually usable for non-devs. +22k track record is impressive — mind sharing the rough win rate on crypto markets?
Thanks! Glad the Windows build + sim mode helps.
On crypto markets the strategy currently sits around 62-68% win rate (depending on volatility and threshold tuning). It's not crazy high, but the edge comes from solid risk/reward and catching strong momentum moves.
Happy to answer more questions as you test it!
