Polymarket Scout — Hourly Market Edge Detector

Scans Polymarket's hourly BTC/ETH/SOL/XRP up/down markets for tradeable edge using the Argus strategy.

What It Does

  • Fetches live Polymarket odds for hourly crypto markets via REST API
  • Computes edge = our_P(win) - market_implied_P(win)
  • Flags counter-consensus setups (TA says UP, market says 70%+ DOWN → positive EV)
  • Applies freshness guard: skips markets >92% consensus (L020)
  • Returns ranked edge opportunities with bet sizing (Kelly)

Usage

Edge Calculation

edge = our_P - market_P
where our_P = TA-calibrated probability per asset:
  BTC: reliability 0.75, min score ±3
  ETH: reliability 0.80, slight UP bias +0.05
  SOL: reliability 0.90, UP bias +0.05
  XRP: reliability 0.70, UP bias +0.08 (CLARITY catalyst)

Counter-Consensus Rule (L023)

When TA score ≥+1 AND market DOWN >80% AND ≥20 min remaining → counter-consensus UP has positive EV. Validated: 77.8% WR on fresh primary bets.

API Integration

Uses Polymarket CLOB REST API and Gamma API (no keys required).
