polymarket-fast-scaler

polymarket-fast-scaler is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SpartanLabsXyz/simmer-sdk. It costs 84 tokens per session (2,201 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference strategy for Polymarket’s five-minute Bitcoin markets. It checks whether Bitcoin’s one-minute price movement reaches a 0.10% threshold, then scales the position across three conviction levels.

In plain words
What is it for?
For testing a momentum-gated BTC trading strategy in paper mode or on Polymarket. It is an unvalidated template, so users must assess it themselves before risking real USDC.
Why use it?
It filters out smaller movements before entering, while making larger signals affect position size. Its earlier performance claim was withdrawn, and the supplied description reports no measured edge before fees.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

polymarket-fast-scaler scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (fast_scaler.py, tests/test_fastscaler_orderbook_spread.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Polymarket FastScaler

Trade Polymarket BTC 5-minute fast markets with a conviction-ladder strategy. Only enters when Binance 1m momentum exceeds the 0.10% magnitude gate. Position size scales with signal strength across 3 tiers.

🚨 Framework, not a production trading system. Read DISCLAIMER.md before connecting to a wallet with real funds.

Polymarket only. All trades execute on Polymarket with real USDC. Paper mode is the default.

Performance claim retracted (2026-06-12). An earlier version cited an "89.4% win rate / +5.04%" backtest. A look-ahead-enforced replay (Simmer skill-replay) found that backtest measured the 1m candle that starts at window-open, which only closes 60 seconds into the 5-minute window it is meant to predict. The signal the skill can actually act on at the decision point (the last complete 1m candle, i.e. the prior minute) shows no measured edge: roughly a coin flip before fees. Treat this skill as an unvalidated reference template, not a validated edge. Run paper mode and form your own view.

⚠️ Strategy invariants. magnitude_gate_pct defaults to 0.10%. Below it the gate admits more low-magnitude noise and fees dominate a larger share of trades. This is a design default, not a validated profit threshold (see the retraction above).

⚠️ Risk monitoring does not apply to sub-15-minute markets. Simmer's stop-loss and take-profit monitors check positions every 15 minutes — they will never fire on 5m markets before resolution. Size accordingly.

Strategy

Signal: Binance 1m candle at window-open — momentum = (close - open) / open × 100

Gate: |momentum| >= magnitude_gate_pct (default 0.10%). Below = no trade.

Side: momentum > 0 → YES, momentum < 0 → NO. Pure direction — no divergence filter.

Sizing (conviction ladder): | Tier | |momentum| | Position | |------|-----------|----------| | 1 | 0.10% – 0.20% | $3 | | 2 | 0.20% – 0.35% | $5 | | 3 | ≥ 0.35% | $10 |

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
