Match Markets are actual head-to-head matches with moneyline odds (sorted by volume). Non-match Markets are tournament futures, props, and other markets without direct match odds.

Stats line (Fetched / Total / Match counts) only shown when --raw flag is used.

If a fetch is interrupted (API error/timeout), a WARNING: Partial fetch line appears showing data may be incomplete.

Filters Applied

The script classifies every event into one of two categories:

Match Markets: Events that are actual head-to-head matches (have seriesSlug + gameId, OR title contains " vs ").

Non-match Markets: Everything else — tournament futures, prop bets, player props, etc.

Tradeable match markets additionally require:

• Must have seriesSlug + gameId (actual match, not tournament future)
• ML volume > 0
• acceptingOrders = true
• ML closed = false
• ML bestBid < 0.99 (market hasn't converged toward favorite)
• ML bestAsk > 0.01 (market hasn't converged toward underdog)
• BO2 matches that ended in a tie (1-1) are filtered out
• Event endDate has not passed (API doesn't always close ML market promptly)
• Match startTime is not more than 4 hours in the past (matches that already ended are filtered out)

Use --raw to disable the tradeable filter and see all match markets regardless of volume or open orders.

Pagination

The script fetches ALL pages until the API runs out of results.

Parallel Fetching

Pages are fetched in parallel batches of 5 using ThreadPoolExecutor. This significantly reduces fetch time:

Scenario	Without Parallelization	With Parallelization
10 pages (50 events)	~20s (2s per page × 10)	~4s (2s per batch × 2 batches)
20 pages (100 events)	~40s	~8s

The script first fetches page 1 to determine total pages, then fetches remaining pages in parallel batches of 5.

Rate Limiting

• Exponential backoff: 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s → 32s
• Max 5 retries before aborting

Caching

Results are cached in ~/.cache/polymarket-browse/ with a 5-minute TTL to reduce redundant API calls.

• Use --no-cache to bypass the cache and fetch fresh data
• Cached data is automatically used when available and not expired
• Useful when running the script repeatedly (e.g., for monitoring)

Odds Format

All odds are shown in cents format:

• 30c = 0.30 probability
• 95c = 0.95 probability
• GamerLegion 28c | 72c Team Yandex = GamerLegion at 28c, Team Yandex at 72c
