Entering an Alphapoly Position

Enter a hedged pair position (target + cover) from a detected alphapoly portfolio.

Prerequisites

Backend running on http://localhost:8000
Wallet unlocked — check GET /wallet/status for "unlocked": true; unlock via POST /wallet/unlock with {"password": "<password>"}
Sufficient pUSD balance — total cost is amount_per_position * 2

7-Step Flow

List portfolios — GET /data/portfolios; note pair_id, market IDs, and position sides
Pick a pair — select by pair_id
Set amount — choose amount_per_position in pUSD
Estimate (required) — POST /trading/buy-pair/estimate; show result to user; stop if sufficient_balance: false
Confirm — require explicit user approval before proceeding
Execute — POST /trading/buy-pair; check success: true on both legs; surface any warnings
Record — position is recorded automatically on success; manual POST /positions only needed for imports

For full request/response schemas, see api-reference.md.

Safety Rules

These trades involve real pUSD on Polygon — transactions are irreversible once submitted on-chain. The estimate step is the only chance to catch problems before money moves.

Always run /trading/buy-pair/estimate before /trading/buy-pair — the estimate reveals actual costs, slippage, and balance issues before committing funds
Never execute without explicit user confirmation — the user needs to see the estimate and agree to the cost
Never proceed if sufficient_balance: false — the transaction will fail on-chain and may leave partial state
If warnings are non-empty after execution, surface them — the user may hold unwanted tokens that need selling via GET /positions
skip_clob_sell: true only when the user explicitly requests it
