Polymarket

Prediction market prices & history

Polymarket gives you read-only access to the world's largest prediction market. Browse thousands of active markets on elections, macroeconomic events, sports, crypto, and geopolitics. Fetch real-time prices, order books, spreads, and historical probability charts for any outcome token โ€” all without needing a trading account.

Prediction markets express collective beliefs as probabilities priced between 0 and 1. A price of 0.65 on a "Yes" token means the market currently gives that outcome a 65% chance. This makes Polymarket data useful not just for traders, but for researchers, journalists, and analysts who want to understand how the crowd is pricing specific future events compared to polls, forecasts, or models.

What you can do

  • Browse active markets with condition IDs, token IDs, and current prices
  • Get real-time bid and ask prices, midpoint prices, and last traded prices
  • View full order book depth for any outcome token
  • Fetch historical price charts at multiple intervals (1m, 1h, 1d, 1w, 1mo, 1y)
  • Calculate estimated fill price for a specific order size
  • Check bid-ask spreads, tick sizes, and fee rates
  • Batch multiple token queries in a single request

Who it's for

Traders monitoring positions and market depth, researchers studying crowd-based probability forecasting, journalists tracking event odds, data analysts building prediction market datasets, and developers integrating Polymarket data into applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I browse markets before looking at prices?

Yes. `list_markets` and `list_simplified_markets` let you browse active markets, condition IDs, token IDs, and metadata before drilling into a specific market.

How do I check current prices and liquidity?

Use `get_market_price`, `get_midpoint_price`, `get_last_trade_price`, `get_order_book`, and `get_spread` to compare executable price, mid, last trade, and visible depth.

Can I estimate the fill price for a larger order?

Yes. `calculate_market_price` walks the visible order book to estimate the fill for a given size. It is read-only, so no order is placed.

Is there a way to check special market flags?

Yes. `get_neg_risk` tells you whether a token belongs to a negative-risk market, and `raw_public_request` is available if you need an allowlisted endpoint that is not covered elsewhere.
