Quickstart

This guide gets your first bot running in paper mode — no funds required. Going live is an optional final step.

  1. 1

    Connect your wallet and sign in

    Click Connect Wallet in the top bar and choose MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, or any WalletConnect wallet on Polygon. Then click Sign In and approve the signature request. This is a free, gas-less message signature (Sign-In with Ethereum) — it proves you own the wallet and creates your session.
  2. 2

    Open a bot

    From the dashboard sidebar, pick a bot — Copy, Arbitrage, Hedge, or Market Maker. All four bots are free during the current beta.
  3. 3

    Configure it (or keep the defaults)

    Open the Settings tab. Every bot ships with safe defaults and Paper trading (dry run) enabled. Adjust sizing and risk limits to taste, then Save.
  4. 4

    Start the bot

    Press Start. The bot begins polling on the execution engine. Watch the Terminal tab for the live watchlist, chart, and order feed, and the toolbar for a heartbeat (last sync time).
  5. 5

    Review performance

    The Performance tab and your Portfolio show simulated PnL as positions open and settle. Let it run and evaluate the results.
  6. 6

    (Optional) Go live

    When you're confident, fund your Polymarket funder wallet, add your signer key + signature type in Settings → API Keys, turn off Paper trading, and start again. Full walkthrough in Funding & Going Live.
Go live deliberately
Live mode places real orders with real funds. Start with small sizes and tight exposure caps, and keep watching the order feed for the first sessions.
