simmer-fastloop

What This Skill Does

The simmer-fastloop skill is a sophisticated trading automation tool designed for Polymarket's sprint (fast) markets. It bridges the gap between traditional centralized exchange (CEX) price data—specifically Binance kline momentum—and decentralized prediction markets. By monitoring real-time volatility and momentum signals, the script evaluates if the current Polymarket odds for BTC, ETH, or SOL sprint contracts deviate from the underlying asset price movement. If a significant divergence is detected, the agent executes a trade automatically. This skill is built as a template, allowing developers to inject custom logic or sentiment analysis to refine their entry signals beyond standard momentum indicators.

Installation

To install this skill, run the following command in your OpenClaw environment: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/adlai88/simmer-fastloop. After installation, configure your environment by setting your SIMMER_API_KEY (obtained from the Simmer dashboard). You can customize the agent's behavior via the config.json file or by using the --set flags in your execution command. For continuous operation, ensure your system is configured to execute the script on a schedule, such as a cron job or OpenClaw heartbeat, to monitor the market windows effectively.

Use Cases

• Automated High-Frequency Trading: Execute trades based on 5-minute or 15-minute price fluctuations on Polymarket.
• Arbitrage-Like Momentum Strategy: Capitalize on instances where Polymarket odds trail the rapid price changes on Binance.
• Portfolio Management: Automate crypto prediction trading for active users who cannot monitor their screens every few minutes.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, install the simmer-fastloop skill and set it to trade BTC with a 5-minute window."
2. "Update my simmer-fastloop configuration to use a $10.00 position size and a 0.10 entry threshold for ETH markets."
3. "Start a dry-run of the simmer-fastloop agent to see if it detects any profitable opportunities with current market data."

Tips & Limitations

• Fees: Remember that Polymarket charges a 10% fee on fast markets; always ensure your trade edge is large enough to cover this, or you will be losing value on every position.
• Risk Management: Always start with dry-runs. The market is highly volatile; ensure your max_position is set to an amount you are comfortable risking.
• Customization: This is a framework. To gain a true market edge, consider building upon the default Binance signal by adding sentiment analysis from news feeds or social media indicators.
