Full deployment guide to `alsk1992/CloddsBot` (3.1k⭐, 119+ skills including cross-market arbitrage, Penny Clipper expiry decay, and smart-money copy trading) and `lihanyu81/polymarket_lp_tool` (passive LP market-making for daily USDC rewards).
3-Minute Beginner Pre-Flight Checklist
- ✓A Polymarket account and isolated trading sub-wallet funded via https://poly.market/p_day with $50–$500 Polygon USDC
- ✓A computer or Linux VPS with Docker Compose (or Node.js ≥ 22 + Python 3.10+) installed

DRY_RUN=trueCopia paper trading
Never run a live trading bot on a home laptop that sleeps or drops Wi-Fi! We recommend RAKsmart Cloud VPS: (1) Choose Tokyo, Singapore, or Silicon Valley for ultra-low millisecond latency to OKX/Binance & Polygon RPCs; (2) Select Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (2 vCPU / 4GB RAM) for Docker Compose; (3) Bind your dedicated static IPv4 address to your exchange API whitelist.
Just Bought a VPS? How to Connect via SSH & Run Commands on Windows / Mac (3-Minute Guide)
Many first-time users get stuck right after buying a cloud server: 'Where do I type these terminal commands?' Follow these 5 simple steps:
• Server IPv4 Address (e.g.,
198.51.100.88Copia)• SSH Port: Usually
22Copia, or a custom security port like 22022Copia / 62134Copia shown in your panel• Username: Always
rootCopia on Ubuntu• Root Password: Your initial server password
powershellCopia, and hit Enter.• On Mac: Press Command ⌘ + Space, type
TerminalCopia, and hit Enter.ssh -p PORT root@SERVER_IPCopia (note lowercase -pCopia; omitting a custom port causes Connection refusedCopia):• Standard Port 22:
ssh -p 22 root@198.51.100.88Copia• Custom SSH Port (e.g.
62134Copia): ssh -p 62134 root@198.51.100.88CopiaAre you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?Copia, type the full word yesCopia and press Enter.• Prompt 2 ([!] Why doesn't the cursor move when I type my password?!): When asked for
password:Copia, Linux hides all characters (not even * asterisks appear) for security! Simply right-click in PowerShell (or press Cmd + VCopia on Mac) to paste your password invisibly, then press Enter!root@ubuntu:~#Copia, you are inside your cloud server! Paste these setup commands once to install Docker, Git, and Python:docker compose ...Copia commands: Simply right-click to paste into your SSH window and press Enter.• For Python (
.pyCopia) scripts: Type nano bot.pyCopia and hit Enter → Right-click to paste the code → Press Ctrl + O then Enter to save → Press Ctrl + X to exit → Run nohup python3 bot.py > bot.log 2>&1 &Copia so your bot keeps running 24/7 even after you close your laptop!# 1.

[!] Top 3 Beginner Pitfalls & Troubleshooting Guide
✕ Pitfall 1: Node.js version not supportedCopia When Installing Natively
CloddsBotCopia requires Node.js >= 22Copia. Use docker compose up -dCopia to avoid host Node version conflicts.
✕ Pitfall 2: Falling for Fake 404 Copy-Trading Repos or Buying Pump.fun Tokens
Never run unverified copy-trading clones from social media threads, and ignore any meme coin contract addresses — only use the MIT source code.
✕ Pitfall 3: Running Passive LP Bots During Imminent Breaking News
Deploy polymarket_lp_toolCopia on high-volume medium-term markets rather than contracts resolving within minutes.
Step 1: Master the Top 3 Alpha Skills Inside alsk1992/CloddsBotCopia (3,100+ ⭐)
Create a dedicated trading sub-wallet via the Official Polymarket Portal ↗. Among CloddsBot's 119 bundled skills (src/skills/bundled/Copia), focus on: (1) Cross-Venue Arbitrage between Polymarket, Kalshi, Betfair, and Binance Futures; (2) Penny Clipper Expiry Decay capturing 96¢–98.8¢ near-resolved contracts in their final 48 hours; (3) Built-In Smart-Money Whale Copy Trading filtered by realized PnL and win rate.
Step 2: Harvest Passive Daily USDC Rewards with lihanyu81/polymarket_lp_toolCopia (613 ⭐)
Polymarket pays daily USDC Liquidity Rewards to resting limit orders quoted near the mid-price. lihanyu81/polymarket_lp_toolCopia (run_passive_bot.pyCopia + rust_mm_botCopia) automatically re-centers your two-sided limit quotes inside the reward band while pulling orders when volatility spikes.
Step 3: Security Audit — Avoid Fake 404 Copy-Bot Links & Ignore Meme Tokens
Beware of viral social posts mixing legitimate repos with dead or malicious links (for example, MrFadiAi/Polymarket-botCopia is a 404 dead repo, and many unverified copy-trading clones steal .envCopia keys). Also note: ignore the Solana pumpCopia token CA mentioned in CloddsBot's README banner — use only the MIT open-source code inside your own isolated Docker container.
Step 4: Validate in DRY_RUN=trueCopia Mode Before Running 24/7 on a RAKsmart Quant VPS
Always test parameter tweaks in paper-trading mode (DRY_RUN=trueCopia) first. Because CloddsBot (Node.js ≥ 22) and polymarket_lp_toolCopia must continuously cancel and replace resting limit orders 24/7, deploy them via Docker on a RAKsmart Low-Latency Quant VPS (Silicon Valley / Tokyo Ubuntu 22.04) ↗.
