Trader explains how bots spot Polymarket arbitrage

Original: Finding a 3¢ arbitrage opportunity on Polymarket looks simple. Your bot sees: YES + NO # polymarket # analytics # crypto

Polymarket traders are discussing how automated bots detect pricing errors where the YES and NO sides of a prediction market add up to less than a dollar, allowing a guaranteed profit of a few cents per share. A new writeup walks through the math of calculating the real return after gas and slippage, noting that a 3-cent gap looks simple on screen but is often already being raced for by competing bots.

Why now: Interest in automated crypto trading strategies is rising as prediction markets like Polymarket grow, and small arbitrage gaps are a popular topic among developers building bots.
