How It Works
Signal Engine
BullZai runs a shared paper portfolio 24/7, testing all strategies against live Polymarket data. When a signal is confirmed by paper execution, it fans out proportionally to each live user's account. Your position size = signal size × (your capital ÷ system capital).
Order Routing
Each live user has their own Polymarket wallet on Polygon mainnet. Real orders are placed via the CLOB API from your wallet address — not pooled funds. Trades are recorded per-user so your P&L is always isolated.
Drawdown Guard
If your account's realized losses reach 30% of deployed capital, live trading pauses automatically. You get a Telegram notification immediately. Re-enabling requires manual action — nothing restarts without your knowledge.
Key Security
Your Ethereum private key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM. The master encryption key lives in Infisical — not in the codebase, config files, or any database column in plaintext. The decrypted key only exists in RAM during active order placement.
Active Strategies (Live Accounts)
EndgameArb
Identifies near-certain markets (95–99.5¢) with ≥12h remaining and buys YES at a discount to near-certainty. Excludes politics, sports, and geopolitics. Largest share of deployed capital.
CorrelationArb
Finds logically ordered markets where prices violate the ordering (e.g. "≥10 outcomes" priced higher than "≥5 outcomes"). Highest realized ROI per trade in paper mode.
ComplementArb
Spots markets where YES + NO prices sum below $1.00, creating a guaranteed profit if both sides are bought. Pure arbitrage — no directional view required.
CopyTrade
Mirrors the top 100 wallets on Polymarket's leaderboard, weighted by recency (all-time × 1, monthly × 4, weekly × 8). Only enters markets within 72h of when the whale entered. Niche markets get a 1.5× size multiplier.
ClusterArb — paused
Uses OpenAI embeddings to find semantically similar market pairs with contradictory prices. Paused for live accounts — closed-position P&L in paper mode has not yet demonstrated consistent profitability.
FAQ
How much do I need to start?
Minimum is $500. That's enough for the system to size positions meaningfully across multiple markets. Most clients start with $500–$1,000.
What strategies run on my account?
EndgameArb, CorrelationArb, ComplementArb, and CopyTrade. ClusterArb is blocked for live accounts until it proves consistent in paper mode. Each can be toggled per-account from your personal dashboard.
What happens if my account loses money?
Live trading pauses automatically when realized losses hit 30% of your deployed capital. You get a Telegram notification with the exact numbers. Re-enabling is manual — nothing restarts without your action.
Is my capital separate from other users?
Yes. Every user has their own Polymarket wallet with a unique Ethereum keypair. Your USDC sits in your address on Polygon mainnet. No pooling — trades are placed from your wallet and settled to your wallet.
How are my keys secured?
Your private key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM using a master key stored in Infisical (not in the codebase or any config file). The decrypted key only exists in RAM at runtime. Database access alone cannot recover your key.
How is position size determined?
Signal size scales proportionally: your position = paper signal size × (your capital ÷ system capital). A $500 account in a $5,000 system receives 10% of each signal.
Can I enable or disable strategies?
Yes — each strategy can be toggled from your personal account dashboard. Changes take effect on the next signal.
What does "proven in paper mode" mean?
BullZai has been running in simulated mode since May 5, 2026 — 800+ paper trades, 400+ closed positions, positive realized P&L across all enabled strategies. Only strategies with a positive closed-position track record are permitted on live accounts.
What is the performance fee?
20% of realized profits. No fee on losses. Settled periodically per client agreement.
How do I withdraw?
Your USDC is in your own Polymarket wallet. Once positions resolve, capital is freed and can be withdrawn from your Polygon address. No counterparty risk with BullZai.
Is this a guaranteed return?
No. Past paper performance does not guarantee future results. Prediction markets are inherently uncertain. BullZai manages risk systematically, but any trading system can lose money.
