The honest read

What traders actually need to know before hunting for a bot on this venue.

Route before you code

US and International are different access paths. A GitHub star count is not a residency certificate.

Fees beat vibes

PM-US taker Θ moved to 0.06 on July 1, 2026. Mid-price taker loops feel it first — date your model.

Diligence before keys

SaaS, Telegram, and GitHub all fail the same way without paper mode, revoke, and path support.

Paper before size

Bot for Polymarket is a hosted no-code builder — paper mode, risk limits, and automation for Polymarket operators.

Operator path

Do this in order. Skipping steps is how Telegram tutorials become account risk.

FAQ

Short answers. The guides go deeper.

Is there one Polymarket API for everyone?

No. US and International are different access paths. Start with residency, not a GitHub tutorial.

What changed for US bot fees in July 2026?

The published US schedule lists taker Θ as 0.06 from July 1, 2026. Cost peaks near mid-price. Always re-fetch the live schedule.

Should I use a Telegram trading bot?

Only after custody, revoke, residency, and paper-mode questions. Most “best bot” listicles skip custody.
