How do I set up auto-trading?

Auto-trading lets trading.bot mirror whale trades into your Polymarket account automatically. Here's how to enable it:

First, go to Settings and connect your Polymarket wallet by entering your private key. Your key is encrypted and stored securely — we never share it and only use it to place trades on your behalf. Next, set your risk level (conservative, moderate, or aggressive) and your maximum trade size per position.

Finally, flip the auto-trading toggle on your dashboard. You'll see a confirmation screen showing your settings. From that point on, when qualifying whale signals fire, your account will automatically mirror those positions.

We strongly recommend starting with paper trading first so you can see how the system performs before risking real capital.
