Deploys basic two-sided quoting strategies on Kalshi markets.
Official open-source keeper that keeps quotes on Polymarket's CLOB order book.
A university quant club project (QuantSC, Spring 2023) exploring market-making models for Kalshi.
Columbia APMA seminar project that quotes Kalshi's daily New York high-temperature contracts: post-only bids and asks around rescaled mids, with inventory priced jointly across temperature bins, quiet periods around weather station reports, and a replay against Kalshi's public trade tape plus Iowa Environmental Mesonet data. Replay results are the author's own (self-reported).
Two closed research projects: simulated (shadow) market making against Polymarket's live order book and recorded tape, and an event study of whether public posts move prices in a capturable way. The repo places no orders and reports its negative results with the tests behind them; findings are the author's own (self-reported). Research logs are in Spanish, code in English.
Experimental Python workspace for studying order books and passive quotes on Polymarket short-duration markets. Includes a Tkinter paper-trading engine that simulates fills against live public data, a backtest window, and an unaudited live CLOB prototype. The author states it is a research prototype, not a validated profitable strategy.
Strategy-free infrastructure pulled from a Rust Polymarket market maker: an atomic order-book snapshot, merging of redundant websocket feeds, per-connection lag detection, EIP-712 order signing, and an execution ledger checked against on-chain receipts. Strategy and risk logic are not included. MIT licensed, with CI.
