complete set arb on polymarket is real but the 5 min btc up/down markets are thin, you're not making 355k without being the only real liquidity there.

This isn’t my trading bot. I just described the strategy used by one of the most profitable bots on Polymarket. Based on its pnl history, the strategy has been working for 4 months now

fair, if it's been printing for 4 months the liquidity's there for that size

Five minute windows on crypto leave almost zero room for execution error. Latency must be insane.

achieving that 3.27c edge consistently is impressive. it underscores the need for precise execution and tight inventory management on polymarket to turn small spreads into significant profit.

This guy built an HFT algorithm and made +$249,869 on Polymarket His bot trades 5-minute BTC Up/Down markets using a hybrid of passive market making, complete-set accumulation, and directional residual: 1. It uses BTC price movements to build Up + Down positions for less than $1 After the first buy, it waits for the underlying asset to move and then starts accumulating the opposite side For example: > Up = 41c -> some time later Down = 54c > Up + Down = 95c -> 5c gross edge The average cost of its complete sets is 96.73c, which means the average structural edge is around 3.27c 2. It leaves a small directional residual Around 81% of its inventory in 5-minute markets consists of paired Up + Down positions. The remaining 19% stays directional If its fair-value model considers one side undervalued, it doesn’t have to fully hedge it and can keep additional exposure It’s Polymarket nickname: almach Stats: > Trades / active hour: 150 > Average trade: $33.50 > Win Rate: 49% Ultimately, the edge of this guy’s algorithm comes from buying Up and Down at different points during BTC price movements, then turning most of the inventory into complete sets that cost less than $1 It keeps a small remainder directional when it’s own fair probability still shows an edge

This guy built an HFT bot on Polymarket with a $50 average trade size Result: +$220,792 His bot trades 5-minute BTC/ETH Up/Down markets using a hybrid of inventory rebalancing, dynamic hedging, and accumulating cheap complete sets: 1. It builds complete sets so that Up + Down costs less than $1 It uses limit orders to buy different sides during different phases of the underlying asset’s movement Average cost of a matched complete set: $0.9387. Edge = 6.13¢ 2. It leaves directional residual on top of the hedged inventory Part of the capital gets a structural edge through pairing, while the rest keeps exposure on the side the algorithm sees as stronger For example: 200 Up + 150 Down 150 Up + 150 Down form complete sets, while the remaining 50 Up stay as a directional position You can build your own trading bot here: (Free trial available after registration) Stats: > Trades / active hour: 284 > Average trade: $49.8 > Win Rate: 50% His Polymarket nickname: hot-garbage This guy’s edge is built on two main layers: he turns most of his inventory into Up + Down < $1, while using the unmatched remainder as a directional position Using this strategy, he captures a consistent edge, repeats it thousands of times, and steadily grows his PnL

Starts building inventory almost as soon as the market opens Its first purchase occurs a median of 33 seconds after the market opens It keeps buying through most of the trading window. In 5 minute markets, its last purchase occurs a median of 223 seconds after opening 2. Adds the opposite outcome to its position It bought both Up and Down in 88.76% of markets It starts buying the opposite side a median of 35 seconds after its first purchase. It then keeps switching between outcomes as the market reprices 3. Turns most of its inventory into complete sets 89.82% of the shares it buys can be matched into Up + Down pairs The average combined cost of a pair is 96.35c, giving it an edge of 3.65c But this is not pure arbitrage Only 58.66% of two-sided markets ended up with an average combined Up + Down cost below $1. The remaining 10.18% of shares are unpaired, leaving a directional residual Its Polymarket account: norm1e69 You can build your own trading bot here: (A trial is available after signing up) The algorithm’s main edge comes from asynchronous pairing: it keeps switching between Up and Down, matches most of its inventory into complete sets, and retains directional exposure through the unpaired remainder

This guy built a trading bot on Polymarket with an average trade size of $9 Result: +$108,248 I analyzed its trades and found that its core strategy is based on dynamically accumulating both outcomes at different points throughout 5 minute BTC Up/Down markets It uses price swings within each market to buy each outcome when it becomes cheaper Here’s what that looks like in practice: > BTC declines sharply > Up falls to 42c, and the bot starts accumulating it > Then BTC rebounds > Down becomes cheaper, and the algorithm buys it at 55c Up + Down = 97c -> 3c edge These paired positions have an average edge of 2.7% But it does not always keep Up and Down perfectly balanced at a 1:1 ratio On top of its paired inventory, the algorithm often keeps a directional residual, which adds extra upside if that outcome wins Its Polymarket account: Jarvisen You can build your own trading bot here: (A trial is available after signing up) Stats: > Trades per active hour: 680 > Average trade size: $9.11 > Win rate: 69% The main edge of this HFT algorithm comes from volatility harvesting: it alternates between accumulating Up and Down, building paired inventory with a combined cost below $1 while keeping a small directional skew toward the cheaper side

This guy built an HFT algorithm on Polymarket with an average trade size of $40 Result: +$223,542 His bot trades short-term BTC/ETH Up/Down markets using a hybrid of passive market making, inventory rebalancing, and opportunistic complete-set formation: 1. It accumulates outcomes below its fair value It places BUY orders in advance and waits for them to get filled. The average price per share acquired is 46.6c 2. When the market moves, it turns part of the inventory into cheap complete sets If its Up orders get filled first and then the underlying reverses, making Down cheaper, it starts accumulating the opposite side In two-sided 5-minute markets, the median combined VWAP of both sides is around 94.8c 3. It keeps part of the inventory directional It doesn’t try to fully balance Up and Down. If it can buy a cheap hedge, part of the position turns into complete sets. If not, the original inventory remains directional His Polymarket nickname: PBot-6 You can build your own trading bot here: (Trial period available after registration) This guy’s stats: > Trades / active hour: 46.11 > Average trade: $39.67 > Win Rate: 50% The main edge of his HFT algorithm comes from consistently getting fills below its fair value and building arbitrage positions

This guy built an HFT algorithm on Polymarket with an average trade size of $35.88 Result: +$470,883 His algorithm trades short-term crypto Up/Down markets. It combines directional trading and dynamic hedging, while forming complete sets with part of its inventory: 1. Finds undervalued outcomes using its own fair value estimates It factors in the underlying asset’s price relative to the opening price, the time remaining, momentum, volatility, the speed of price movements, and spot/perp data If its model values Up at 65c and the price on Polymarket is 55c, it starts building a position 2. Buys the opposite side when the market changes direction If the underlying asset reverses direction, it starts buying the opposite outcome to reduce its net directional exposure This hedges part of its existing position 3. Turns the hedge into a complete set If each matched Up + Down pair costs less than $1, that portion of the position has a structural edge regardless of how the market resolves It keeps the unpaired remainder as a directional residual on the side its model considers undervalued Its Polymarket account: mo-money You can build your own trading bot here: (A trial is available after signing up) The bot’s main edge comes from a combination of fair-value entry and dynamic hedging: it first builds a position in an undervalued outcome, then uses the opposite side to reduce exposure or form a complete set

This guy built an HFT algorithm on Polymarket with an average trade size of $60 and a 55% win rate Result: +$311,667 His bot trades short-term crypto Up/Down markets using a combination of directional trading and dynamic hedging: 1. Looks for mispricing using its model For each market, it records the reference price and uses fast spot/perp feeds to track the underlying asset Its model continuously recalculates outcome probabilities based on price relative to the reference, momentum, acceleration, volatility, time to resolution, and order flow Its signal looks like this: > Model Edge = p_model(outcome) - PM price For example: > p_model(Up) = 67c > Current Up price = 60c Model Edge = 7c As long as this gap remains, it keeps buying that side 2. Uses the opposite outcome to adjust its inventory If the market reverses and its fair probability estimate shifts toward the other side, it often buys the opposite outcome This reduces net exposure and, at favorable prices, can turn part of the position into complete sets costing less than $1 each Matched inventory acts as a hedge, while the remainder stays directional Its Polymarket account: antsaslyku The algorithm uses external price feeds to continuously update its fair probability estimates. Buying the opposite outcome lets it hedge its inventory while continuing to follow its directional signal

This guy built a trading bot with Claude and made $96,000 on Polymarket with an average trade size of $3 His bot trades crypto Up/Down markets using a hybrid strategy that combines two-sided market making, arbitrage, and directional trading His strategy has five steps: 1. Monitors multiple crypto markets 2. Calculates its own fair probability for Up and Down 3. Places orders at prices that keep the combined cost of Up + Down below $1 4. Manages the unhedged portion of the position 5. Keeps directional exposure when its model identifies one outcome as undervalued This guy’s Polymarket account: Using this strategy, he captures a small edge, repeats it thousands of times, and steadily grows his deposit

There’s a guy running a high-frequency trading algorithm on Polymarket, averaging just $53 per trade. In the end, he made $129,923. His bot specializes in short-term BTC and ETH up/down markets, using a mixed strategy of two-sided market making plus complete-pair accumulation, combined with inventory rebalancing. The specific logic works like this: First, it accumulates positions on both the “up” and “down” sides at different times. On both sides it hangs buy orders, taking advantage of market volatility to get filled at different prices. For example, on the “up” side it buys at 47 cents, and a while later on the “down” side it buys at 52 cents, adding up to 99 cents combined, which locks in a guaranteed 1 cent gross profit. Second, it keeps a bit of directional exposure. After putting together complete pairs, if its fair-probability model sees an edge, it holds onto part of the directional position. The model is based on external data on the underlying assets, order book depth, and things like momentum, acceleration, and volatility. His main Polymarket page: The core edge of his high-frequency algorithm is constantly repeating the same cycle, steadily eating up the price difference to keep compounding his capital into a bigger and bigger pile.

It finds mispricing using its own model It receives spot/perp data for the underlying asset and constantly compares it with prices on Polymarket The model also analyzes volatility, momentum, acceleration, and order-flow imbalance, then buys when it detects mispricing 2. When the signal reverses, it starts accumulating the opposite side as a hedge If the underlying asset changes direction, it starts buying the opposite outcome. This reduces its net directional exposure If both sides can be bought cheaply enough, part of the position turns into complete sets His Polymarket nickname: antsaslyku Follow this account and trade on Polymarket through this app: The main edge of this guy’s algorithm comes from identifying the stronger outcome and properly managing its open positions
