What PolyVault Does

PolyVault is an automated Polymarket trading bot that buys and sells prediction-market contracts on your behalf. It runs a spread-capture strategy — it doesn't predict outcomes, it profits from the bid-ask spread when markets move. It has risk management (stop-loss, max drawdown, take-profit targets) and can run in paper mode (fake money) or live mode (real trades).

How It Works
1
Bot scans Polymarket for active markets
It fetches live prices, liquidity, and volume for prediction markets. Markets with high volume and tight spreads are preferred.
2
Evaluates each market with a strategy preset
Your active preset (Conservative, Moderate, or Aggressive) determines position sizing, stop-loss, take-profit, and regime adaptation rules.
3
Places paper or live orders automatically
In paper mode: orders simulate fills using real market prices. In live mode: orders execute against your Polymarket account balance.
4
Enforces your risk rules on every trade
Stop-loss, trailing stop, max drawdown, take-profit targets, and position size caps are checked before every order. Emergency stop halts all trading immediately.
5
Monitors strategy health and rotates if needed
Auto-rotation can switch presets based on Sharpe ratio, win rate, and decay detection. Each rotation is logged with before/after metrics.
