Late-Window ETH Prediction Market Trading with Edge and Execution Controls
Summary
This document describes an automated strategy for 15-minute ETH up-or-down prediction markets. During a late entry window, it looks for the outcome side leading in the order book and requires Chainlink price movement to confirm direction. A conservative probability estimate must exceed the actual purchase VWAP and entry fee by a minimum edge; Binance data informs lead and volatility estimates but is not treated as the settlement source.
The implementation emphasizes execution checks: it refreshes market depth, limits price and depth participation, records order intent before submission, reconciles partial fills, and blocks repeat orders when status is uncertain. Position risk is measured as the full possible loss, with settlement, drawdown, and outstanding-position protections. The document says simulation is enabled by default and explicitly does not promise returns. The excerpt is mostly configuration and partial code, so it does not provide performance results or enough complete logic to independently assess the probability model or profitability.
Key ideas
- The strategy enters late in a 15-minute ETH prediction market when the book leader and Chainlink movement align.
- A conservative probability estimate must clear purchase VWAP and entry fees by a configured net edge.
- Binance spot data supports lead and volatility estimates, while Chainlink remains the settlement reference.
- Execution safeguards include refreshed depth, persisted order intent, partial-fill reconciliation, and fail-closed handling of uncertain order status.
- Risk controls assume the position can lose its full cost and include account and outstanding-position limits.
