polymarket-btc15m

What This Skill Does

The polymarket-btc15m skill provides an automated trading bridge for Polymarket’s 15-minute Bitcoin markets. Utilizing the PolymarketBTC15mAssistant, it analyzes technical signals and executes trades based on market sentiment and edge probabilities. It offers two distinct operational modes: 'Clawbot' mode, which acts as an autonomous risk-manager calculating dynamic position sizing, take-profit (TP), and stop-loss (SL) triggers; and 'Fixed' mode, which allows for manual order sizes and user-directed entry. This skill is engineered to handle the complexities of short-term volatility by automating the monitoring and management of open positions through the provided monitor commands.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/krajekisbtc/polymarketbtcskill

Once installed, you must configure your environment variables. Open your .env file and set the required variables: POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY for account authentication and POLYMARKET_FUNDER to link your specific Polymarket funding address. Ensure your system has Node.js installed to support the execution of the trade-cli and monitor daemon scripts.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for traders looking to automate high-frequency market strategies on Polymarket. Key use cases include:

1. Algorithmic swing trading: Utilizing AI-generated signals to capture movement in 15-minute BTC intervals.
2. Risk-mitigated automated trading: Using Clawbot mode to ensure that your exposure never exceeds 30% of your total balance, while maintaining a 20% reserve for liquidity.
3. Position maintenance: Offloading the tedious task of watching exit signals to the monitor daemon, which executes pre-settlement sells based on defined TP/SL triggers.

Example Prompts

1. "What is the current signal for the 15-minute BTC market? Include the clawbotParams so I can see if the current risk levels match my strategy."
2. "Place a trade for the UP side on the current signal. Please verify the entry logic first and execute with automatic confirmation."
3. "Enable Clawbot mode in my .env configuration and start the monitor process so I can manage my open positions automatically."

Tips & Limitations

Always monitor your open trades. While Clawbot provides dynamic risk management, it cannot guarantee profit and remains subject to market slippage and liquidity constraints. Never execute trades with a private key that contains funds you cannot afford to lose. Always perform a dry run or manual verification when testing new configuration parameters. Keep your POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY strictly private; the agent will handle it in memory, but it should never be exposed in plaintext logs or chat history. Remember that switching from Fixed to Clawbot mode changes the fundamental way the agent interacts with your portfolio balance.
