Polymarket Smart Money Discovery & Analysis

Discover profitable Polymarket traders, filter out market makers and HFT bots, and assess copy-trading reliability.

Project Location

Activate the virtualenv before running any script:

cd {baseDir}/../../agents/polymarket-bot/PolyAnalysis

Quick Commands

Analyze a single wallet

python analyze.py <address>
python analyze.py <address> --force   # force full refresh
python analyze.py <address> --json    # JSON output

The report includes:

• PnL, ROI, win rate
• Entry timing analysis
• Copy trading score (0-100)
• MM/HFT detection (MM Score, is_market_maker, is_hft)
• Copy reliability label (🟢 高可靠 / 🟡 中可靠 / 🔴 低可靠 / ❌ 不可跟单)

Discover smart money (batch)

python analyze.py discover --top-n 10
python analyze.py discover --top-n 20 --min-profit 100000 --min-volume 500000
python analyze.py discover --top-n 10 --output-json --output-file smart_money.json

Discovery pipeline:

1. Fetch from Polymarket v1 Leaderboard API (7 strategies)
2. Deduplicate across dimensions
3. Stage 1 pre-filter: PnL/Vol < 3% → exclude (likely market maker)
4. Fetch activity data for remaining addresses
5. Stage 2 deep analysis: MM Score + HFT detection
6. Exclude "❌ 不可跟单" addresses
7. Rank by copy trading score

Cache management

python analyze.py cache list
python analyze.py cache stats
python analyze.py cache clear <address>
python analyze.py cache clear --all

Filtering Pipeline

Stage 1: Pre-filter (from leaderboard data, zero cost)

Stage 2: Deep analysis (from activity data)

MM Score (0-100, weighted)

MM Score > 50 → flagged as market maker.

Important: Decision frequency uses positions per day, not trades per day. A directional trader may place hundreds of trades to build one position (dollar-cost averaging). What matters is how many independent position decisions they make.

HFT Detection (2 of 3 conditions)

Interpreting Results

When presenting results to users:

• Always show the copy reliability label prominently
• For ❌ addresses, explain why (MM Score, HFT indicators)
• For 🟢 addresses, highlight key strengths (holding time, PnL/Vol efficiency)
• Compare addresses using the copy trading score (0-100, A/B/C/D grades)
• Use Chinese for user-facing output (the user prefers Chinese)
