πŸ“‹ Tips & Best Practices

"Order too small" / "below minimum (5)"

  • Polymarket requires minimum 5 shares per order
  • Increase --max-usd or reduce --top-n to concentrate into fewer positions
  • "No wallets specified"

  • Provide wallet addresses in your message, e.g., "copytrade 0x1234..."
  • Or set SIMMER_COPYTRADING_WALLETS environment variable for recurring scans
  • "Agent has no USDC balance"

  • Need USDC in your Polymarket wallet, or use --venue sim for $SIM paper trading
  • Check wallet is linked at simmer.markets/dashboard
  • "Conflict skipped"

  • Wallets disagree on this market (one long YES, other long NO)
  • Markets with net position < 10% are skipped
  • "All N positions filtered (X conflicts, Y drifted, Z stale)"

  • All whale positions were removed by safety filters
  • Try different target wallets, or reduce to 1 wallet to disable conviction scoring
  • Drift filter skips positions where price moved >30% from whale's entry
  • Stale filter skips near-resolved markets (price >90% or <10%)
  • "Insufficient balance"

  • Not enough USDC for all trades
  • Reduce SIMMER_COPYTRADING_TOP_N or SIMMER_COPYTRADING_MAX_USD
  • "Market could not be imported"

  • Some markets may not be importable (resolved, private, etc.)
  • These are skipped automatically
  • "External wallet requires a pre-signed order"

  • WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY is not set in the environment
  • The SDK signs orders automatically when this env var is present β€” no manual signing code needed
  • Fix: export WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x
  • Do NOT attempt to sign orders manually or modify the skill code β€” the SDK handles it
  • "Balance shows $0 but I have funds on Polygon"

  • Polymarket V2 (live 2026-04-28) uses pUSD (PolyUSD, 1:1 backed by USDC.e). If your wallet holds USDC.e, migrate at simmer.markets/dashboard with one click (~30s)
  • If you bridged native USDC (Circle), swap to USDC.e first, then migrate to pUSD
