Polymarket Whale Activity

/whale polymarket [n]                       # Recent Polymarket whale trades
/whale polymarket market <id>               # Whale activity for a market

Note: /whales also works as an alias for /whale.

TypeScript API Reference

Polymarket Whale Tracker

import { createWhaleTracker, isWhaleAddress, getMarketWhaleActivity } from 'clodds/feeds/polymarket/whale-tracker';

// Create tracker
const tracker = createWhaleTracker({
  minTradeSize: 10000,      // $10k+ trades
  minPositionSize: 50000,   // $50k+ positions
  enableRealtime: true,     // WebSocket streaming
});

// Event handlers
tracker.on('trade', (trade) => {
  console.log(`🐋 Whale ${trade.side} $${trade.usdValue.toLocaleString()}`);
  console.log(`   Market: ${trade.marketQuestion}`);
  console.log(`   Address: ${trade.address}`);
  console.log(`   Price: ${trade.price}`);
});

tracker.on('positionOpened', (position) => {
  console.log(`📈 New whale position`);
  console.log(`   Address: ${position.address}`);
  console.log(`   Market: ${position.market}`);
  console.log(`   Size: $${position.size.toLocaleString()}`);
});

tracker.on('positionClosed', (position) => {
  console.log(`📉 Whale exited position`);
  console.log(`   P&L: $${position.pnl.toLocaleString()}`);
});

// Start tracking
await tracker.start();

// Track specific wallet
await tracker.trackAddress('0x1234...');
await tracker.untrackAddress('0x1234...');

// Get tracked addresses
const tracked = tracker.getTrackedAddresses();

// Stop tracking
await tracker.stop();

Check Whale Status

// Check if address is a whale
const isWhale = await isWhaleAddress('0x1234...', 100000);  // $100k min volume

// Get whale activity for a market
const activity = await getMarketWhaleActivity('market-slug');

console.log(`Total whale volume: $${activity.totalVolume.toLocaleString()}`);
console.log(`Whale trades: ${activity.tradeCount}`);
console.log(`Net whale sentiment: ${activity.sentiment}`);  // 'bullish' | 'bearish' | 'neutral'
console.log(`Top whales:`);
for (const whale of activity.topWhales) {
  console.log(`  ${whale.address}: $${whale.volume.toLocaleString()}`);
}

Top Traders

// Get top traders
const topTraders = await tracker.getTopTraders({
  period: '7d',           // 24h, 7d, 30d, all
  limit: 10,
  minVolume: 50000,
  minWinRate: 0.5,
});

for (const trader of topTraders) {
  console.log(`${trader.rank}. ${trader.address}`);
  console.log(`   Volume: $${trader.volume.toLocaleString()}`);
  console.log(`   Win rate: ${(trader.winRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
  console.log(`   P&L: $${trader.pnl.toLocaleString()}`);
}

Crypto Whale Tracker

import { createCryptoWhaleTracker } from 'clodds/feeds/crypto/whale-tracker';

// Create multi-chain tracker
const cryptoTracker = createCryptoWhaleTracker({
  chains: ['solana', 'ethereum', 'polygon', 'arbitrum', 'base', 'optimism'],

  thresholds: {
    solana: 10000,      // $10k+ on Solana
    ethereum: 50000,    // $50k+ on ETH
    polygon: 5000,      // $5k+ on Polygon
    arbitrum: 10000,    // $10k+ on Arbitrum
    base: 10000,        // $10k+ on Base
    optimism: 10000,    // $10k+ on Optimism
  },

  // API keys
  birdeyeApiKey: process.env.BIRDEYE_API_KEY,
  alchemyApiKey: process.env.ALCHEMY_API_KEY,
});

// Event handlers
cryptoTracker.on('transaction', (tx) => {
  console.log(`🐋 ${tx.chain.toUpperCase()}`);
  console.log(`   Type: ${tx.type}`);  // 'transfer', 'swap', 'nft', 'stake'
  console.log(`   Amount: $${tx.usdValue.toLocaleString()}`);
  console.log(`   From: ${tx.from}`);
  console.log(`   To: ${tx.to}`);
  console.log(`   Token: ${tx.token}`);
  console.log(`   TX: ${tx.hash}`);
});

cryptoTracker.on('largeTransfer', (tx) => {
  console.log(`🚨 LARGE TRANSFER: $${tx.usdValue.toLocaleString()}`);
});

// Start tracking
await cryptoTracker.start();

// Watch specific wallets
await cryptoTracker.watchWallet('solana', 'ABC123...');
await cryptoTracker.watchWallet('ethereum', '0x1234...');

// Unwatch
await cryptoTracker.unwatchWallet('solana', 'ABC123...');

// Get recent whale transactions
const recent = await cryptoTracker.getRecentTransactions('solana', {
  limit: 20,
  minValue: 50000,
});

// Get top whales by chain
const topSolana = await cryptoTracker.getTopWhales('solana', 10);
const topEth = await cryptoTracker.getTopWhales('ethereum', 10);

// Stop
await cryptoTracker.stop();

Alert Configuration

Polymarket Alerts

// Configure alerts
tracker.setAlertConfig({
  minTradeSize: 25000,      // Alert on $25k+ trades
  alertChannels: ['telegram', 'discord'],
  soundEnabled: true,
  markets: ['politics', 'crypto'],  // Filter by category
});

Crypto Alerts

// Configure per-chain alerts
cryptoTracker.setAlertConfig({
  solana: {
    minValue: 50000,
    tokens: ['SOL', 'JUP', 'BONK'],
  },
  ethereum: {
    minValue: 100000,
    tokens: ['ETH', 'USDC', 'PEPE'],
  },
});

Data Export

// Export whale data to CSV
await tracker.exportTrades({
  format: 'csv',
  path: './whale-trades.csv',
  period: '30d',
});

// Export top traders
await tracker.exportTopTraders({
  format: 'json',
  path: './top-traders.json',
  limit: 100,
});

Best Practices

1. Set reasonable thresholds - Start with $10k for active markets
2. Focus on specific markets - Filter by category to reduce noise
3. Track known smart money - Follow wallets with proven track records
4. Combine with copy trading - Use whale data to inform copy decisions
5. Monitor sentiment shifts - Watch for net whale direction changes
6. Check position sizes - Large positions signal conviction
