N 00 / Prediction Market Strategies

Build, test, and run Polymarket/Kalshi strategies.

Find a strategy template, clone a public playbook, or bring your own Python. Paper-trade against live prediction-market data, then activate live trading with your own venue keys, hard limits, logs, fills, and P&L.

strategy lifecycle
find -> template or public strategy
test -> paper fills on live market data
activate -> own keys + hard risk caps
manage -> logs, fills, P&L, stop control
N 01 / Strategy Library

Start with a playbook.

Most users should not start from a blank editor. Start from a strategy, inspect the assumptions, run it in paper, then decide whether it deserves live capital.

    Polymarket Long-Tail Liquidity Provider

    A market-making style strategy on long-tail Polymarket markets. Places small bids and asks around the midpoint to capture spread. Educational only: real market-making needs inventory management and adverse-selection protection that a v0 strategy can't do safely. Use as a starting point.

  • Banger Demo

    Kalshi NFL Underdog Catch

    Buys YES on Kalshi NFL game-line markets where the spread has moved against the underdog by ≥3 points in the final 6 hours before kickoff. Late line moves often overshoot; this fades the overshoot. Requires KALSHI_API_KEY_ID + KALSHI_PRIVATE_KEY in your venue credentials.

    Polymarket Volume Surge Follow

    When a Polymarket market sees a sudden volume spike with directional move, follow it for a small position. Treats high-conviction informed flow as signal. Filters: min volume_24h, min absolute price move in the last hour, max position size capped tight.

N 02 / Workflow

From idea to controlled live.

  • 01

    Find or build a strategy

    Start from a Polymarket or Kalshi template, clone a public strategy, paste Python, or generate a first draft with your AI tool.

  • 02

    Paper-trade safely

    Run against live market data first. Inspect simulated fills, logs, positions, and P&L before any real order is allowed.

  • 03

    Activate with hard limits

    Add venue credentials, set caps, and promote the same strategy only when you decide the evidence is good enough.

  • 04

    Manage every action

    Track fills, performance snapshots, logs, and stop controls across all running deployments from one surface.

N 03 / Activation

Live trading starts with hard limits.

Banger should make the risk boundary more obvious than the trade. Every activation path is built around caps, credentials, allowed markets, and a stop button.

Per-trade cap

Maximum dollars any strategy can place on one order.

Daily loss stop

New orders halt when a deployment breaches your loss limit.

Market allowlist

Restrict a strategy to chosen venues, categories, or tickers.

Paper/live parity

The same strategy code moves from simulation to activation.

Kill switch

Stop the deployment from the dashboard or CLI.

N 04 / Visibility

Know what the strategy did.

Fills

Every simulated or live fill tied to venue, market, side, size, and price.

Logs

Strategy and runtime logs stream back to the deployment timeline.

P&L

Performance snapshots, open positions, realized and unrealized P&L.

The pitch is not that every strategy wins. The pitch is that every strategy can be tested, constrained, inspected, and stopped without rebuilding the same brittle bot infrastructure.

N 05 / Build

Customize with Python or AI.

Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT are useful for drafting strategy code. They are not the product. Banger is where the strategy gets tested, constrained, activated, and monitored.

N 06 / Why now

Manual traders are competing with automated markets.

$40M

reported as extracted by arbitrage bots on Polymarket between April 2024 and April 2025. Of the top 20 wallets, 14 were reported as bots. In short-duration crypto markets, bots accounted for 55-62% of volume.

The conclusion is not that everyone should trust a black-box agent. The conclusion is that strategy testing, activation, and monitoring need to be built like a product.
