pmxtjs

A unified TypeScript/Node.js SDK for prediction markets - The ccxt for prediction markets.

Installation

npm install pmxtjs

Quick Start

import pmxt from 'pmxtjs';

// Initialize exchanges
const poly = new pmxt.Polymarket();
const kalshi = new pmxt.Kalshi();

// Search for markets
const markets = await poly.fetchMarkets({ query: 'Trump' });
console.log(markets[0].title);

// Get outcome details
const outcome = markets[0].outcomes[0];
console.log(`${outcome.label}: ${(outcome.price * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);

// Fetch historical data (use outcome.outcomeId!)
const candles = await poly.fetchOHLCV(outcome.outcomeId, {
    resolution: '1d',
    limit: 30
});

// Get current order book
const orderBook = await poly.fetchOrderBook(outcome.outcomeId);
const spread = orderBook.asks[0].price - orderBook.bids[0].price;
console.log(`Spread: ${(spread * 100).toFixed(2)}%`);

Core Methods

  const events = await poly.fetchEvents({ query: 'Fed Chair' });
  const warsh = poly.filterMarkets(events[0].markets, 'Kevin Warsh')[0];
  

Deep-Dive Methods

• fetchOHLCV(outcomeId, params) - Get historical price candles
• fetchOrderBook(outcomeId) - Get current bids/asks
• fetchTrades(outcomeId, params) - Get trade history

Helper Methods

• getExecutionPrice(orderBook, side, amount) - Calculate volume-weighted average price
• getExecutionPriceDetailed(orderBook, side, amount) - Get detailed execution info

Trading

Polymarket:

const poly = new pmxt.Polymarket({
    privateKey: process.env.POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY,
    proxyAddress: process.env.POLYMARKET_PROXY_ADDRESS, // Optional
    // signatureType: 'gnosis-safe' (default)
});

const kalshi = new pmxt.Kalshi({
    apiKey: process.env.KALSHI_API_KEY,
    privateKey: process.env.KALSHI_PRIVATE_KEY
});

Limitless:

const limitless = new pmxt.Limitless({
    privateKey: process.env.LIMITLESS_PRIVATE_KEY
});

      amount: 10,
      price: 0.55
  });
