What is Polymarket FastLoop Trader?
The Polymarket FastLoop Trader is a specialized tool within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem designed for high-frequency prediction market participation. It specifically targets the 5-minute and 15-minute BTC fast markets by leveraging real-time price signals from centralized exchanges like Binance. By analyzing price divergence between spot markets and Polymarket odds, the skill identifies profitable entry points for sprint contracts.
Built as a template for developer advocates and traders, this skill provides the underlying infrastructure for discovery, signal processing, and trade execution. While it comes with a default momentum-based strategy, it is designed to be a flexible foundation where users can layer on sophisticated reasoning such as sentiment analysis or multi-exchange technical indicators to gain a competitive edge in fast-moving prediction markets.
Polymarket FastLoop Trader Use Cases
- Automated trading of BTC, ETH, or SOL sprint and fast markets on Polymarket.
- Execution of short-term crypto prediction strategies based on CEX price action.
- Integration of Binance price momentum as a primary signal for prediction market odds.
- Monitoring and managing active sprint market positions via an AI agent.
How Polymarket FastLoop Trader Works
- The skill initiates a cycle to discover currently active Polymarket fast markets for the specified asset.
- It fetches real-time price data and historical candles from Binance or alternative signal sources via the Simmer API.
- Momentum is calculated by comparing current prices against a lookback window (defaulting to 5 minutes).
- The logic compares the momentum direction against current Polymarket YES/NO prices to identify price-to-odds divergence.
- If the divergence exceeds the configured entry threshold and momentum meets the minimum percentage, a trade is executed on-chain.
Polymarket FastLoop Trader Setup
First, obtain your API key from the Simmer Markets dashboard and set it as an environment variable to integrate with your Openclaw Skills:
export SIMMER_API_KEY="your-key-here"
To run a dry run and verify the signal logic without executing trades:
python fastloop_trader.py
To enable live trading on Polymarket, use the following command:
python fastloop_trader.py --live
For continuous operation, incorporate the skill into your heartbeat or set up a cron job to run every 1 to 5 minutes to capture every fast market window.
Polymarket FastLoop Trader Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill utilizes a config.json file and environment variables to manage its operational parameters and metadata taxonomy. All executed trades are tagged with a specific source for portfolio tracking.
| Parameter | Type | Default | Purpose |

| window | String | 5m | Fast market duration (5m or 15m) |

All trades are tagged with source: "sdk:fastloop" to ensure P&L can be tracked separately from other Openclaw Skills.
