Background: Polymarket LP Rewards

Polymarket runs a liquidity provider (LP) rewards program that incentivizes traders to place limit orders. LPs earn a share of a daily rewards pool proportional to:

1. The amount of liquidity provided
2. How close to the current price their orders are placed
3. How long their orders remain active

What the Panel Shows

Competition Level Indicators

Each market outcome bracket is color-coded to show how competitive the LP environment is:

Color	Meaning
🟢 Green	Low competition — fewer LPs on this side, easier to earn rewards
🔴 Red	High competition — crowded side, harder to capture a meaningful share

This color system lets you instantly spot where the best LP opportunities are without manually calculating pool share.

Per-Bracket Data

For each outcome bracket (e.g., >$800M, >$1B, >$1.5B):

Field	Description
Current probability %	Polymarket's current price for this outcome
% change	Recent movement (▲ = price rising)
Daily rewards	Total rewards pool allocated per day (e.g., $800/day)
Sponsored	Additional sponsored rewards if applicable
Remaining	How much of the reward pool is still unclaimed (~$422 left)
Buy Yes / Buy No	Current bid prices with competition color indicator

How to Use It

Step 1: Look for green brackets — these are the lowest-competition LP opportunities right now

Step 2: Check the daily rewards and remaining pool — higher rewards + more remaining = better opportunity

Step 3: Consider the probability — providing liquidity near 99¢ on a near-certain outcome is low risk but also low edge; brackets with 40–60% probability carry more adverse selection risk

Step 4: Place limit orders in Polymarket's order book at your chosen bracket

Understanding Competition & Risk

Situation	What It Means
Green YES + high daily rewards	Best LP opportunity — low competition, meaningful payout
Red on both sides	Crowded market — LP earnings will be split among many providers
High remaining pool	Earlier in the reward period — more to earn
Near-zero remaining	Pool almost exhausted for this period

---

Trade-offs for LP Providers

Tighter to market price	Further from market price
Higher rewards weight	Lower rewards weight
More adverse selection risk	Less exposure to informed traders
Orders fill more often	Orders fill less often

LP rewards are separate from PolyHelper's own points & airdrop program. You can earn both simultaneously.
