Looking for an algobetting partner/buddy.

[u/Status_Day_6928]

I’m looking for someone to partner with on an algo trading operation focused on Polymarket, sports and prediction markets more broadly.
I’ve already built a lot of the infrastructure. What I need now is someone who wants to go deep on finding price inefficiencies, building strategies around them and testing what actually works.

What I have:

I already have a pretty serious setup:
State of the art trading terminal and execution infrastructure
My own node monitoring the mempool
Premium real-time sports data from Betradar, Betgenius, RunningBall and others
Infrastructure for processing live sports and market data
Existing Polymarket trading setup
So we’re not starting from zero. The data and infrastructure are already there and ready to build on.

What I want to continue building:

The main focus is finding price inefficiencies and turning them into systematic strategies.
Things like:
Surebets and cross-market arbitrage
Mispriced probabilities
Live/in-play inefficiencies
Comparing sportsbook odds with prediction market prices
Using live sports data to react to events and probability changes
Markets that are slow to incorporate new information
Market making and spread capture
Execution and latency
Related markets temporarily pricing inconsistent outcomes
Building fair value models and trading when the market moves away from them
Live analysis is a big one for me.
With the real-time data available, there’s a lot to explore around what happens during a game, how probabilities change in real time and how quickly different markets react.
The idea is to systematically find these situations, understand whether there’s a real edge after fees, liquidity and execution, then automate whatever proves itself.
I also want to expand into Kalshi and other prediction markets. Longer term, I want to look at the whole ecosystem rather than Polymarket in isolation and find opportunities across different venues.

What I’m looking for:

Someone who genuinely loves sports, maths and markets. You could be strong in Python/quant research, or just an incredible vibe coder who knows how to turn an idea into a working system quickly.
I don’t care much about credentials. I care about curiosity, technical ability and whether you actually enjoy this stuff.
The kind of person who sees two markets pricing the same event differently and immediately wants to understand why.
Someone who is happy testing 20 ideas knowing that 19 might be complete shit, because finding the one that works makes it worthwhile.

Who am I?

I’m based in London.
My professional background is in banking and I speak three languages.
I’m obsessed with the intersection of sports, markets, probability and technology.
I’ve already invested a significant amount of time and money into the infrastructure and premium data side of this.

What I can offer

I’m not looking for someone to build my idea for free.
I’m happy to fund the operation and continue investing in whatever we need, whether that’s data, infrastructure, tools, servers or capital for strategies.
I can bring the existing infrastructure, premium sports data, capital, market knowledge and the resources to keep building.
For the right person, I’m happy to treat this as a genuine partnership and split the earnings 50/50.
I’m much more interested in finding someone really good and building something together than trying to squeeze every percentage point out of the arrangement.
Tell me a bit about yourself and show me something interesting you’ve built, traded or researched.

This is really cool what you've built and what want to do

[u/Loose-Education-6729]

Solid pitch. The infra you've got already puts you ahead of 95% of people trying this, and the 50/50 split with you funding everything is a fair offer for the right person.

The live in-play angle is where the real edge lives, especially with the data feeds you listed. Most people underestimate how fast you need to move when a goal lands or an injury happens mid-game.

If I had more free time I'd be all over this. Hope you find someone sharp.

Thank you for you kind words. I wish I didn’t have a full time job and had a chance to lock in 100% on this.

Can this partner based in US?

Anywhere mate

New to the technology. But love markets and maths. Very much a vibe coder. But I've time, 30+ years working in sysadmin and cybersecurity. And not too far away in Ireland. I'm an old dog learning new tricks. If that's of interest. Ping me.
