3 cents x 26000 = 780

This is complete BS. Yes + No by definition always equals to 1 or more (depending on spread). He does something completely different as you can clearly see from his activity.

Arbitrage, it’s called arbitrage

This ignores transaction costs..

Literally everything you said is fallacy

That last line hits hard. Real money isn’t made by guessing the future, it’s made by understanding the rules better than the crowd. While everyone argues direction, someone quietly farms the math. That’s the difference between noise and mastery.

As noted here, there are transaction costs that will exceed the gain from only cents of difference. You would pay twice the normal transactions fees because you would be entering two positions, not one as normally. There is also a time delay: you would be entering one order followed by the second while markets change. Further: your own first order may be enough to alter your entry price for the second order. I suspect that your odds of take-home profits are higher if you can find markets where the outcome is already definitive but the trading market has not yet caught up to that information. That is, where you know more about the outcome than the majority of the players and there is just a little time left before the market settles. These situations do arise.

They’re trying to explain arbitrage but you need a much better entry when buying BOTH sides of the bet like this. It really is a lot harder to do than what this post is saying. I’ve looked into arbitrage a while back, decided I’d stick to trading long term options lol.

This only works in a cost free transaction world. Small margin HFT needs no or very low transaction cost. With taker fees, you can't bets the vig except at the low margin edges.

3 cents 26000 times is 780 dollars. Pretty much nothing.

Why don't you just link the reddit thread?

There are several people who have built models that inject small amounts right as bets resolve and show long term results. However.... I've yet to see anyone selling one of these tools. It's mostly engineers who've figured out flaws in the algorithm.

What you just said is Polymarket is a completely inefficient market, and so there is room for a brand new trader to arbitrage. If Polymarket is inefficient and its price discovery doesn't work efficiently, then everyone trading on it is a moron losing money to guys like this
