The big wallets

Late buys by the 50 largest wallets

The 50 wallets that put in the most money, and what they bought in the last 5 minutes of a 15-minute market.

Result per $1 spent
50 largest wallets, last 5 minutes−0.6¢ per $1
Everyone else, last 5 minutes−0.5¢ per $1
Everyone else, first 5 minutes0.0¢ per $1

The win rate counts positions; the result per $1 is weighted by the money spent, so the two don't convert into each other directly.

Methodology

How these numbers are made

  • These figures cover every wallet trading these markets on Polymarket. They are not CandleOdds' own results; CandleOdds' signal record is on the Track record page.
  • Source: Polymarket's public data.
  • Only the 15-minute Bitcoin and Ethereum Up/Down markets are counted. A wallet's trades in any other market are left out.
  • Results are after fees.
  • The period is Oct 26 – Nov 1, 2026 in US Eastern time; this report was generated on November 2, 2026.
  • Weekly and monthly figures aren't directly comparable: shorter periods look milder.
  • "Top 50 by dollars in" can include wallets that mint and merge pairs of tokens rather than trade.
  • The copy-trading and top-50 sections are in the monthly reports only: one week is too small a sample for them.
