[NautilusTrader](https://nautilustrader.io) adapter for the [Polymarket](https://polymarket.com) prediction market.
The `nautilus-polymarket` crate provides client implementations (HTTP & WebSocket), data
models and parsing for the **Polymarket CLOB API** for trading binary option contracts.
## NautilusTrader
[NautilusTrader](https://nautilustrader.io) is an open-source, production-grade, Rust-native
engine for multi-asset, multi-venue trading systems.
The system spans research, deterministic simulation, and live execution within a single
event-driven architecture, providing research-to-live semantic parity.
## Feature flags
This crate provides feature flags to control source code inclusion during compilation:
- `python`: Enables Python bindings from [PyO3](https://pyo3.rs).
- `extension-module`: Builds as a Python extension module.
[High-precision mode](https://nautilustrader.io/docs/nightly/getting_started/installation#precision-mode) (128-bit value types) is enabled by default.
## API endpoints
The adapter communicates with three Polymarket API surfaces:
| CLOB REST | `https://clob.polymarket.com` | L2 HMAC | Orders, trades, balances. |
| CLOB WebSocket | `wss://ws-subscriptions-clob.polymarket.com/ws` | L2 HMAC (user channel) | Streaming orderbook, trades, order updates. |
| Gamma (Data) | `https://data-api.polymarket.com` | None | Market discovery, positions. |
## Authentication
Polymarket uses two-tier authentication:
- **L1 (EIP-712)**: Wallet-level signing for API credential creation and order signing
via the CTF Exchange contract. Uses `alloy` signer crates.
- **L2 (HMAC-SHA256)**: API key + secret + passphrase for authenticated REST and
WebSocket requests. Signatures expire after 30 seconds.
