Proof that you don't need rust, a millisecond engine, or your own node, to consistently beat the #15m #polymarket markets -- a 2019 macbook pro is sufficient. As an economy of scale, I can increase the shares bought each tick to increase the profit. It took from Dec 12th until yesterday to finally achieve, but out of 96 markets/day, it skips a little less than half (based on leader flip quantity and rhr), and locks in profit on the rest regardless of which side wins.

For each loss that occurred I asked, **if I could pause time right here, right now, how would I solve for this loss?** Then I had either gemini or Opus codify the solution.
Antigravity takes FAR too much liberty in what it decides to change. So opus (windsurf) did the majority of the code execution while Gemini (antigravity) crunched the numbers and came up with the plan. Antigravity destroyed the script more times than I can count, deciding without any authorization on code changes that had nothing to do with the task at hand. Antigravity is now a research tool for me solely... going through the gigabytes of data and finding the solution programmatically that I could only explain in plain laymen's english.

Keep going. The answer is there.

I no longer run all three markets at once because I noticed I get far more request_exception errors from polymarket when placing the FOK/FAK and GTC orders.

Happy to answer q's in the comments.
