Frequently asked questions

Built by a Polymarket trader

PolyArena was created after a year of active trading on Polymarket — placing hundreds of positions across elections, crypto, and macro markets. The core problem was clear: every strategy idea required risking real capital to test it. PolyArena exists to fix that: describe your strategy in plain English, test it against real historical data, and only risk capital when you have evidence it works.
