Here’s why. 1/ I spent two weeks writing a Polymarket automated market-making bot. I simulated it with a $500 paper account and netted +53%. But right at the start, I don’t want to hype it. I want to tell you first: it will very likely lose money on real trades. Here’s why. 2/ First, let’s talk about the logic behind how it makes money. On Polymarket, there’s a bias that has been repeatedly validated by data—Favorite-Longshot Bias: the prices of contracts for underdog (low-probability) events systematically run higher than the true probability of them occurring. I pulled 2,100 settled markets and filtered down to 225 clean samples. Results: 113 markets with <20% probability had an actual win rate = 0%.
US stock perpetual AI watchlist · Day 5 ledger Today I opened the dashboard and double-checked the accounts:
📊 6 positions held, deployed ~6072 USDT 💰 Total P/L **+107.5 U** (+1.77%) 🤖 AI status: **everyone hold, on standby
Highlights for today:
HOOD (Robinhood) is the standout, up +33%; the other 5 are basically flying just above the ground.
This week, the AI reviewed every target—confidence is solid in the 45–55 range. None broke the 60-point threshold → no trades were placed.
Sounds like you didn’t do anything? Actually, you did the hardest thing: not move.
Since the initial entries, the account has been making a small profit—not because the AI caught some god-tier signal, but because it **can hold its nerve**—when there’s no signal, it doesn’t act rashly, and it leaves the profits to time.
Next post is expected to come either when HOOD pulls back, or when one of the stocks breaks above 60 points and confidence kicks in—let’s see what it looks like when the AI actually takes action.
I tinkered with it for a while and made a small project: have AI help me watch US stock futures contracts 24/7. Let me start with the background. The US market opens while I'm asleep, and closes while I'm at work. Manually monitoring the market is basically impossible, but using the exchange’s US perpetual futures contracts (1 contract = 1 share, traded 7×24, no expiration) raises a question—when I'm not around, who decides when to add or reduce positions? So I built a little system that uses AI to monitor the market: 🧠 Strategy core First, filter by EMA momentum When I'm unsure, I directly pull up DeepSeek-V3.2 to read the market If the main model fails, automatically switch to Qwen as backup
