My bot made $12,300 while I was sleeping $25/month.... 4 open-source repos. Zero proprietary data One prompt to Claude: "14,000 wallets. Find every one with win rate above 70%" 4 minutes. 47 wallets Top 20 made more than the bottom 13,000 combined Three filters. Everything else gets killed: -> Claude's estimate vs market price gap under 7% - skip -> Order book depth under $500 - skip -> Resolution outside 4-48h window - skip 93% of markets die here. That's the point For everything that survives: -> 3 agents vote independently -> 2 agree - full position -> Disagree - no trade That filter killed 40% of losing trades before they happened Exit rules nobody talks about: -> 85% of expected move hit - out -> Volume spikes 3× in 10 minutes - follow smart money out -> 24h no movement - thesis stale - out Top wallets never hold to settlement Buy at 40¢, sell at 65¢, walk away The last 35 cents isn't worth the risk Day 2: +$370 Day 7: +$1,600 Day 14: +$8,100 Day 19: +$12,300 214 trades. 74% win rate.

A Citadel quant sat down next to me at... Verve on Gough and asked why my laptop had four terminals open I was scanning Polymarket. Four panes. Each one a different agent. He was killing time before a flight. Saw the screens. "Is that a multi-agent setup on prediction markets. Who's orchestrating" Claude. One prompt per agent. They don't share memory. Only a queue file. He pulled up a chair. "Walk me through. I do this for equities at work. I want to see your agent separation" Agent 1 is the scanner. I piped raw JSON from the official Polymarket CLI straight into Claude and told it to score every live market on three things. Edge against my probability estimate. Book depth on both sides. Hours to resolution. Thresholds kill 93% of markets before the brain ever sees them. Edge under 7 cents gone. Depth under $500 gone. Under 4 hours to resolution gone. Over 168 gone. 487 live markets collapse to 35. "Seven cents is your transaction cost buffer" Yes. Below that the gas and spread eat the trade. A green fill popped. +$52 on a BTC dominance market. "And the brain" Agent 2. Runs four checks on every survivor. Base rate from history. News in the last six hours. Whether any of the 47 top wallets are currently holding. And a disposition check - is the crowd making a known cognitive error. Three out of four must agree. Otherwise drop it. 86 million trades. I let Claude rank every wallet with 100+ fills and a 70%+ win rate. It returned 47 names in four minutes. Top 20 wallets made more than the bottom 13,000 combined. "Concentration like that means the signal is there. Most retail books look like a normal curve. Yours looks like power law" Kelly sizing does the rest. Capped at quarter Kelly. If f-star goes negative the trade dies no matter how confident I feel. "Overbet once and the bankroll is gone. You respect that. Good" Agent 3 is execution. Three strategies pulled out of a 53k line Typescript repo. Arbitrage across related markets. Convergence when price moves toward my estimate. Whale copy with a 60 second delay on the 47 wallets. Two agents agree full position. One agent only half. Disagreement no trade. "What did you cut" Sports. 52% win rate. Already priced in before the scanner flags it. Markets under $50k in depth. Slippage makes every edge a coin flip. Holding to settlement. The top wallets exit at 73% of max profit every time. I copied that. Agent 4 watches exits. Three triggers. Target hit at 85% of expected move. Volume spike 3x the ten minute average. Thesis stale 24 hours with no movement. "91% of the smart wallets exit before resolution. That's the trade" Yeah. Being right is not the same as being profitable. Setup: Claude API $20 Hetzner VPS $5 Four repos free Total $25 a month $200 seed. 27 days ago. $14,300 now. 271 trades. 74% win rate. Sharpe 2.47. Copy here: "How long did the build take" Two weekends. One to wire the scanner and the CLI. One to get the agents talking through the queue file. He watched the volume exit trigger fire on a Fed cut market. Position closed at 0.71. +$184. "Nobody at my shop runs four agents on their own money. We run eight on the firm's. You got the same structure on a laptop for the price of a sandwich a month" He asked for the repos. I sent them. He messaged me from the gate. "Publishing this tomorrow. My PM is going to ask me why I didn't do it first" I told him his PM already has a Bloomberg. That's the problem.show more

An Anthropic engineer paid for my espresso at Sightglass... when he saw my screen I was running my Polymarket bot from the counter. He was next in line. Looked over my shoulder. Stopped scrolling. "That's not a normal trading app. What's it actually running on" I told him. Claude Code. Four repos. $25 a month. He sat down without asking. "I'm on the agent team. We stress test Claude for exactly this. You're letting it find its own edges" Not just edges. Wallets. 86 million trades. Every wallet. Every entry. Every exit. "You're feeding Claude raw wallet data and letting it identify who consistently wins. Then cloning them" He said it slowly. Like he was writing the threat model in his head. One prompt. Find every wallet with 100 plus trades and win rate above 70%. Rank by profit. Export top 50. Claude scanned 14,000 wallets in 4 minutes. Returned 47. The top 20 made more than the bottom 13,000 combined. "That's not a stat. That's a hit list" Exactly. "And you didn't write the scoring function" Claude did. I just wired it into an if-statement. Then I showed him the second repo. Official Rust CLI. No API key for reads. 500 markets, Claude scores them in minutes. Gap. Depth. Resolution window. 487 markets become 35 before a dollar moves. 93% killed before I even see them. A green fill landed on the screen. +$84. Copytrade wallet: He watched it hit. "How does it decide to actually enter" Three agents. Shared wallet. No shared memory. Arbitrage, convergence, whale copy. 2 agree, full size. 1 alone, half. Disagree, no trade. Consensus filter alone killed 40% of losing trades. "And the exits?" The 47 whales never hold to settlement. 91% exit early. 73% of max profit captured. Redeploy immediately. My bot cuts at 85% of expected move or on a 3x volume spike. "You built a whale copy bot that exits before the whales" Yeah. He put his espresso down. "How often does it trade" 10 a day on average. Most of them skipped before I look up from my coffee. My setup: Claude API - $20/mo VPS in Germany - $5/mo poly_data - free polymarket-cli - free Polymarket/agents - free $200 seed. 27 days ago. $14,300 now. Copytrade here: 271 trades. 74% win rate. Sharpe 2.47. I haven't touched it in 27 days. He stared at the screen for a long time. "This is literally what our red team simulates. Except you actually shipped it" He emailed me the next morning. "Any chance you'd take a call with our policy lead" I told him the article is the call. Read it twice. Too late to gatekeep.show more

My girlfriend asked me at brunch what I actually... do for work. "Building trading systems." "Like Robinhood?" "No. Open-source. Anyone can audit the code." She put her fork down. "So you're just coding all day for free?" "I don't code for free. The code makes money." "Sure it does." I didn't argue. I opened my phone. One wallet I was tracking turned $480 into $6,900 in 19 days. Another moved $5.3M in volume. One more had a 74% winrate across 214 trades. Sharpe 2.31. I didn't touch it once. She stopped mid-sip. "That's... from a script?" Exactly. Then I showed her the repos. All free. All public. First: 86M+ trades on Polymarket. Every outcome since day one. Free to download. Second: Market making bot. Both sides of the book. Gas optimized. Google Sheets execution. Third: ML + heuristics. I fed 14,000 wallets into Claude. One prompt. 4 minutes. Found 47 traders with 70%+ winrate. Bot mirrors them with 60-second delay. She went quiet for a long time. Then: "Why didn't you ever tell me?" I didn't have a good answer. Profile: The people closest to you are always the last to know.show more

An OpenAI engineer stopped me at a hackathon in... Hayes Valley I had my terminal open on a table. Three panels. Live trades scrolling. He was walking past and froze. "That's not a demo. That's a live scoring engine. What model is that" I told him. Claude Opus 4.7. Four repos. $25 a month. He pulled up a chair without asking. "We benchmarked Opus 4.7 internally. It beat o3 on structured reasoning across every eval we ran. And you're telling me you're using it to trade" I told him it does more than trade. It reads 86 million trades and finds who wins and why. No fine-tuning. No prompting chains. Just raw context. He leaned back. "Show me the data source" I opened one link. 86 million trades. Every wallet. Every entry. Every exit. "You point Opus 4.7 at this and it reverse-engineers the strategy. It finds the wallets that win. Then it finds why they win. Then it copies the pattern" His team spent 14 months building something similar. 10 engineers. Custom infra. Still in staging. "The part that killed us was exit timing. Every model we trained nailed entries. But the best traders exit before the crowd. We never figured out the threshold" I told him my bot cuts at 85% of expected move. Or on a 3x volume spike. Whichever comes first. He stopped talking. "How did you find that" Opus 4.7 found it in poly_data. Top wallets exit before resolution 86% of the time. Losers hold to 58%. Exits are the entire game. I opened another tab. "Three commands. 500 markets. Opus scores them in 20 minutes" "That's our internal eval pipeline. Except it took us a year and you did it in a weekend with our competitor's model" My setup: Claude Opus 4.7 - $20/mo VPS - $5/mo poly_data - free polymarket-cli - free 214 trades. 74% win rate. +$9,400 in 19 days. Copytrade here: I showed him the article where I broke down every repo and every command. He read it twice. Then looked up. "You just published what we've been trying to ship for six months. Using the other team's model" He texted me the next day. "My manager found your thread. Delete it" Too late.show more

An Anthropic paid for my espresso at Sightglass when... he saw my screen. I was backtesting a Claude-built arbitrage system. Terminal open. Live trades firing. He glanced over. Stopped walking. That is not TradingView. What framework is that actually running. Claude Code. Three repos. One prompt. $20 per month. He sat down across from me without asking. I work on AlphaGo successor models. We test reinforcement agents for market simulation. You are running something similar but you let Claude write the strategy layer. Not just strategy. Detection. github/warproxxx/poly_data 86 million Polymarket trades. Every wallet. Every position. Every timestamp. You are feeding Claude transaction history and letting it identify asymmetric behavior patterns. Then cloning the profitable ones in real time. Exactly. One prompt: Scan every wallet with 150+ trades and ROI above 65%. Rank by consistency. Export top 40. Claude processed 18,600 wallets in 6 minutes. Returned 38. Top 15 wallets outperformed the bottom 18,000 combined. That is not analysis. That is alpha concentration. Precisely. And you did not write the ranking algorithm. Claude built it. I just connected it to execution logic. Then I opened the second repo. github/Polymarket/polymarket-cli Official Rust CLI. No auth required for reads. 600+ markets scanned in under 3 minutes. Claude scores: liquidity depth, pricing gap, resolution timeline. 512 markets reduced to 28 before capital moves. 94.5% filtered out before entry consideration. A notification hit. Position filled. +$127. How does it decide entry timing. Four agents. No shared state. Arbitrage detector, convergence scanner, whale mirror, volume surge tracker. 3 agents agree: full position. 2 agree: half size. Split vote: skip. Consensus filtering alone eliminated 46% of losses in backtest. And exit logic. The 38 top wallets almost never hold to settlement. 89% exit early. Average 71% of max profit captured. Immediate redeployment. My bot exits at 82% of projected move or 4x volume spike. Whichever hits first. You built a whale copy system that exits before the whales do. Correct. He set his coffee down slowly. How many trades per day. 12 average. Most rejected by filters before I see notifications. My setup: Claude API: $20/mo VPS Frankfurt: $6/mo poly_data: free polymarket-cli: free $300 seed capital. 34 days ago. $18,700 now. 318 trades. 76% win rate. Sharpe 2.61. I have not modified it in 34 days. He stared at the terminal without blinking. This is exactly what our adversarial testing team models. Market-adaptive agents with autonomous strategy evolution. Except you deployed it live. He messaged me the next day. Would you consider a conversation with our safety research lead. I told him this post is the conversation. Too late to contain. The edge is not predicting markets. It is identifying who already wins and mirroring them before the pattern shifts. You only need Claude + device + 1 hour per day. Giving this free for 24 hours.

An Anthropic engineer watched me trade from across the... table at a WeWork in SF I had my laptop open. Four agents running. Green charts. Live trades scrolling. He was on a Zoom call. Muted himself. Walked over. "Are you running Claude against live prediction markets right now" I told him. Claude Code. Two repos. $25 a month. He pulled up a chair. "I helped build the model you're using. I've never seen anyone wire it to live trades like this" I showed him the dataset. 86 million trades. Every wallet. Every entry. Every exit. He stared at it. "We tested this internally. You give Claude a dataset and don't tell it what to look for. It finds the winning wallets. Then it finds WHY they win. Then it copies the pattern. We never shipped it because legal killed it" I told him I did exactly that. One weekend. Claude Code found the exit logic on its own. Top wallets exit before resolution 91% of the time. They capture 86% of expected value. Cut losers at 12%. Everyone else captures 58% and holds to 41%. "That's the exact finding from our internal eval. Except ours took a team of eight and four months" I showed him the scanner. Three commands. 500+ markets. No API key. Claude scores them all in 20 minutes. "You're using our model to beat markets we're not allowed to touch. On infra that costs less than my lunch" My setup: Claude API - $20/mo VPS - $5/mo poly_data - free polymarket-cli - free 214 trades. 74% win rate. +$9,400. 19 days. I showed him the full breakdown. Every repo. Every command. Every dollar. Copytrade here: He read it for five minutes. Then looked up. "If my manager sees this he's going to lose his mind. You just proved our model works in production and we've been sitting on it for a year" He DM'd me that night. "Take this down before someone at Anthropic finds it" Too late.show more

An ex-Anthropic engineer stopped next to me at a... meetup in LV. I had my Polymarket terminal open. He watched the ladder for maybe fifteen seconds and said one sentence. "You're trying to predict the market. You should be measuring when it falls asleep" I asked what that was supposed to mean. He pulled my laptop closer. Opened one repository. 86 million trades. Every wallet. Every fill. Every close. The full Polymarket record since day one. "Stop reading posts. Read behavior. Ask one question - who makes money when liquidity disappears" I asked why he cared about that more than entries. He said the best wallets are not better at guessing. They are better at waiting. Then he had Claude work through the dataset. Find wallets with 70%+ win rate. More than 100 trades. Then isolate what they do between 02:30 and 04:00 UTC. That was the first useful query I had run in months. The pattern was obvious. Normal hours: tight book. noisy edge. Wolf Hour: wide book. lazy pricing. Typical spread: 2-3 cents. Dead hours: 8-10 cents. Same market. Different level of defense. I asked why Claude Code instead of just using chat. He laughed. "Because chat gives opinions. Claude Code goes into the repo, reads the structure, and actually works through the data" Then he opened the scanner. Three commands. 500+ markets live. Read-only. No API key. Claude built the overnight filter in about twenty minutes. Fair value gap > 8 cents. Spread blown out beyond normal. Resolution in 4-48 hours. No new trades unless the contract was pre-approved during liquid hours. Most markets died immediately. The few that survived were the only ones worth touching. One example. Fair value during the day: $0.51. Wolf Hour target: $0.41. At 3:12 UTC the ask printed there. Order in. London woke up. Same contract traded back around $0.50. Not prediction alpha. Structural mispricing. Then he said the line that made the whole thing click. "Good traders use AI to think faster. Great ones use it to stop themselves from trading until the market gets stupid" I rebuilt the stack that week. Daytime research. Night scanner. Morning exits. Four real entries a week was enough. About 9 cents blended edge. Roughly $9,360 a year on around $2,000 average deployed capital. No team. No fancy infra. No sitting there at 3 AM pretending discretion is a system. the edge was never hidden in better prompts. it was sitting in the one part of the night when the market stopped protecting its own prices.show more

Had dinner with my dad. He asked what I... actually do for a living. "Building trading systems." "Like Wall Street?" "No. Open-source. Anyone can read the code." He nodded slowly. "So... programming for banks?" I didn't correct him. I opened my laptop. One wallet I was tracking turned $480 into $6,900 in 19 days. Another moved $5.3M in volume.

I trained a Reinforcement Learning agent on 18 months... of Polymarket data. 2 million iterations later it trades better than me. I panicked. Turned it off. Turned it back on. It won again. Everyone builds bots that follow rules. This one wrote its own. It all started after I lost $380 on a weather market. London. NOAA said one thing, Polymarket priced another. I was right but entered too early and panic-sold. That night one thought: "What if the agent learns when to enter not just what to bet on?" Four inputs: order book, time to resolution, volume, spread. Four actions: YES, NO, hold, exit. One reward: PnL. Just money. At 500K iterations it traded randomly. At 800K it stopped entering short-window markets on its own. Nobody told it to. At 1.2M it started timing entries around volume spikes. Learned to read the crowd without a news feed. At 2M profitable on data it never saw. 67% win rate. 2.3 Sharpe. Paper traded a week. +$2,847. Zero intervention. Then I compared my calls vs the agent on the same markets. It beat me 11 out of 14. Not because it's smarter. But because no ego. No FOMO. No "just a bit longer." Best example: Iran sanctions. I hesitated at 52 cents. Agent entered at 48. Six hours earlier. Resolved at 96 cents. It made +$1,200. I made +$440. Same market. Different timing. I built something that trades better than me. At what point does the creator become less useful than the creation?show more

My sister called me crying at 1AM. "I think... I broke something." I drove over. Thought her car died. Or she flooded the bathroom again. She was sitting on the floor with her laptop. A terminal open. +$6,400. "I didn't mean to make this much." She's 22. Works at Zara. Makes $2K a month folding jeans. Two months ago she overheard me talking about Polymarket on the phone. Didn't ask me anything. Found an article herself. Claude analyzed 400 million trades worth $3.7B. Found 5 patterns that top 30 wallets use. Nobody else does. The biggest one: they only hold 1.6 days. Everyone else holds 11. Same edge - 11x the return. Try copytrade this bot here: She gave Claude one prompt: "Only trade markets closing within 72 hours. One category. Exit at 91% of peak. Cut at -12%." 162 trades. 64% win rate. $500 start. Best trade: weather market at $0.14. NOAA said 93%. Resolved YES. +$1,200. During her shift. "Why are you crying then?" "I made more in two months than in a year at Zara and I don't understand how." I looked at the screen. She had 8 positions open. All green. I've been in crypto for 4 years. Zero bots. My little sister figured it out in a week. She still folds jeans. The bot doesn't.show more

My mass communications professor mass-emailed the wrong file to... 400 students. It wasn't grades. It wasn't the syllabus. It was a spreadsheet. 2,300 Polymarket positions.

Every winning trade had the same pattern - he was buying contracts where the price was way off from what the data said. Not gut calls. Math. I spent 4 days trying to reverse-engineer his edge. Pulled 86M fills from one repo: Fed everything into Claude. "Compare true probability vs market price on every contract updated in the last 6 hours." First version was garbage. 52% hit rate. Worse than a coin flip. Then I added one filter - only enter when Claude's estimate diverges from market price by more than 14%. Everything changed. Scanner runs every 11 seconds. 8 bots splitting the work. Claude scores every contract before entry. Try to copytrade: $1,500 starting bankroll. 7 weeks later: → 191 trades → 74% win rate → +$8,340 Saw him in lecture last Thursday. He was reading something on his phone under the desk. It was my tweet about prediction markets. He looked up. We made eye contact. He didn't say anything. But he smiled. I think he knows.show more

$25K+ profit daily from 1 wallet, with OpenClaw. I... have the exact step-by-step guide, giving it free for 24 hours. To get it: 1. Comment "OpenClaw" 2. Like and Retweet. 3. Follow me Himanshu Kumar ( So, i can send you DM) I ran a simple script last night with Claude Code. Pull on-chain data from Polymarket, sort by win rate on 15 minute BTC markets. 20 minutes later, 100s of wallets showed up. Most were losing money or barely breaking even. Then I spotted 1 address. 200+ trades daily, every single week profitable, timing so precise it looked robotic. Because it is. I fed the wallet address back into Claude Code. Asked it to reverse engineer the strategy. 20 mins later the full breakdown appeared on my screen. Here is how it works: Bot monitors Binance and Bybit every 100ms. Waiting for BTC volatility compression to drop below 0.08%. When it hits that level, it buys both Up and Down contracts at 25 to 35 cents each. Classic straddle play. 1 contract loses, the other rockets to a dollar. Entry at 30 cents means 3x to 4x return every time. Repeats dozens of times per day. Result: $13K to $25K profit daily from 1 wallet. No human intuition, no insider tips. Just an algorithm exploiting a gap in market mechanics. I searched to see if anyone else found this wallet. Turns out yes. There is a Telegram bot that auto-copies trades from wallets like this. I connected it to the same address. Every entry matched what my terminal showed. You can now copy-trade an algorithm in real time. That capability did not exist 12 months ago. Comment "OpenClaw" and I will send you everything.

My girlfriend found a second laptop under my bed... Saturday. I was still asleep. She was looking for a phone charger. She didn't say anything for ten minutes. I woke up. She was on the couch with both laptops open. "What are you doing?" "Comparing strategies." "Strategies for what?" "Trading. Open-source. Anyone can audit the code." She put the coffee down. "So you code for free?" "No. The code makes money." "Sure it does." I didn't argue. I sat next to her. One wallet I was tracking turned $1,500 into $24,200 in 16 days. Another flipped 298 trades with 85% winrate. One more pulled $7.4M in volume in four weeks. She stopped mid-sip. "That's... from a script?" Exactly. Then I showed her the repos. All free. All public. First: 86M+ trades on Polymarket. Every outcome since day one. Free to download. Second: Market making bot. Both sides of the book. Gas optimized. Google Sheets execution. Third: ML + heuristics. I fed 14,000 wallets into Claude. One prompt. 4 minutes. Found 47 traders with 70%+ winrate. Bot mirrors them with 60-second delay. She went quiet for a long time. Then: "Why do you have a second laptop under the bed?" "Because one runs the bot. One shows the dashboard. I sleep better when they're not on the same machine." "You sleep better when there's trading software running while you sleep?" "Yeah." She closed both laptops. Looked at me. "You're going to show me everything. Tonight. From the top. I'm not asking." Try to trade: Girlfriends don't ask about the money. They ask why there's a second laptop under the bed. Then they take over the conversation.show more

I deleted all my Polymarket positions at 2am on... a Tuesday because I realized I was winning 54% of my bets and still down $11,400. It took me three weeks to understand that sentence. Fifty four percent wins. Why is the balance shrinking? The math was brutal once I finally saw it. I was buying outcomes at 55 to 65 cents feeling smart because my picks kept winning. But the payout at those prices was so thin that one loss wiped out five wins. My edge was maybe 3% and the spread was eating 4%. I dug into the data hoping to find a way to trade better and instead found a number that made me want to close the app. 70% of all Polymarket addresses are in the red. And the profits? Captured by 0.04% of wallets. Four thousand addresses out of 1.7 million own almost everything. I was playing a game where 96% of participants exist to fund the other 4%. But the trades of those wallets are public. Every entry, every exit, sitting on the blockchain. I started tracking them manually. One wallet broke me. It started January 6 with $50. By the time I found it the balance was close to $500,000. Pulling $20 to $30K a day on 15 minute BTC, ETH and SOL markets, exploiting the fact that Binance updates faster than Polymarket odds. A few seconds of lag, hundreds of times a day. I scrolled its history for an hour trying to find a losing streak. Could not. That is when I stopped doing this by hand. Set up PMX. Alerts the second a tracked wallet moves, one tap copy. → Link to bot: Three weeks of shadowing instead of trading. Made back $4,200 of my $11,400 hole. Not because I got smarter. Because I stopped pretending I was the edge. The game on Polymarket is not about being right. It is about standing behind someone who already is. I am still not in profit. But for the first time in four months my balance moves the right direction and I sleep through the night. That is worth more than any win.show more

My entire Polymarket strategy right now is Ctrl+C on... a wallet making $20K a month and Ctrl+V on my account. Yeah. I know how that sounds. 6 months ago I would have closed the chat on anyone who said this. Probably blocked them too. But here is where I am: last month, +$2,700. Trading decisions I made: 0. For context, my best month of manual trading was $580. And that took 3-4 hours a day. Let me back up. For 6 months I was a "real trader." Charts on 2 monitors. 3 Discord alpha groups. NOAA weather data at 2 AM because someone said temperature markets were free money. Spreadsheets tracking 40 wallets. Every thread read. An opinion on every market. Average month: somewhere between $400 and "I would rather not say." I was very busy. Just not very profitable. Then something clicked. Not an insight about markets. An insight about me. The wallets I was tracking, the ones pulling $15K-$30K a month, had data pipelines, sub-second execution, and models I could not replicate in a year of trying. I was not competing with other retail traders. I was competing with infrastructure. You do not outrun a car. You get in the car. So I stopped. Stopped picking markets. Stopped reading forecasts. Stopped setting 3 AM alarms for data drops. Found 3 wallets with 90+ day track records and consistent returns. Not the flashy ones posting $3M screenshots on Twitter. The boring ones pulling 4-6% weekly on liquid markets. Connected automatic copying. 1 evening. Maybe 15 minutes of actual setup. That was 5 weeks ago. 1st week I checked the dashboard every 2 hours. Old habits. 2nd week, once a day. Now I check maybe every 5 or 6 days. Trades execute on their own. I do not choose markets. I do not analyze odds. I do not decide position sizes. 5 weeks in: +$3,100 total. Same capital that would have made me $300-400 doing it manually. Same money. Different operator. Or rather, no operator. I did not make a single trading decision. That was the whole point. The logic is short: top wallets have speed, data, and execution you and I will never have. You can not beat them. But you can stand next to them and do exactly what they do, at roughly the same time, in the same markets. The tool I use: PMX 1 evening. 15 minutes. 0 decisions since: 6 months of charts taught me less than 1 evening of copying. Turns out the smartest move in trading is not trading at all.show more
