What these guides cover
The ground this section walks over, so you know whether it is the right place to start.
-
Finding edge
Where mispricing comes from: thin books, slow reaction to news, markets nobody is watching, and resolution rules people skim.
-
Position sizing
How much to put on a market you think is wrong, and why that number is smaller than it feels when the payout is fixed.
-
Managing risk
Correlated positions, capital locked until settlement, and the drawdowns that end accounts that were right on average.
-
Measuring yourself
Scoring your own probabilities against resolved markets, which is the only honest way to know whether the process works.
Frequently asked questions
Can you make money on Polymarket consistently?
Some do, and most do not. Consistent returns come from being better calibrated than the market on a specific kind of question, then trading only that. The traders who last are the ones who can name their edge and stop when it is absent.
What is the most common mistake?
Sizing by conviction instead of by edge. A market you are 60 percent sure about is not twice the position of one you are 55 percent sure about, and treating it that way is what turns a good read into a wiped account.
Do I need a model?
No, but you need a number. Writing down the probability you think is right, before you look at the price, is most of what a model does and it costs nothing.
How is this different from betting?
Mechanically it is close. The difference is that a prediction market lets you exit before resolution, so you are trading a price rather than waiting on an outcome, and that changes how you manage a position.
