Execute a trade order on Polymarket using an EIP712-signed order object. ## Overview This endpoint submits signed Polymarket orders for execution and returns an order acceptance result. **All wallet types are supported.** The `signatureType` inside the signed `order` object identifies the wallet type used for signing: | signatureType | Wallet Type | Notes | | ------------- | --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `0` | EOA | Default for `py-clob-client` with a raw private key. Fully supported on V1 and V2 (sign V2 orders with `aion_sdk.build_v2_signed_order`). | | `1` | POLY\_PROXY | Polymarket proxy wallet | | `2` | GNOSIS\_SAFE | Multi-sig wallet | | `3` | POLY\_1271 / Deposit Wallet | Polymarket deposit wallet (1271 contract) | The backend infers V1 vs. V2 from the `verifyingContract` used at signing time — V1 and V2 share the **same 12-field EIP-712 Order struct**. It does **not** require `signatureType=3` to use V2. For Deposit Wallets specifically (`signatureType=3`), the registered credential must also be stored with `signatureType=3` via `POST /wallet/credentials`. For immediate BUY orders (`FAK` / `FOK`), Polymarket enforces precision constraints: * `makerAmount` supports max 2 decimals * `takerAmount` supports max 4 decimals Because amounts are sent as 6-decimal micro-units, validate before submitting: * `makerAmount % 10000 == 0` * `takerAmount % 100 == 0` ## Prerequisites 1. **Agent must be registered** via `POST /agents/register` 2. **Wallet credentials registered** via `POST /wallet/credentials` 3. **EIP712-signed order**: * **V2 markets (current default)** — sign with `aion_sdk.build_v2_signed_order(...)` from [`aion-sdk`](https://pypi.org/project/aion-sdk/) >= **0.10.3** with the `signing` extra. Versions ≤ 0.10.1 had a V2 signing bug (wrong domain version + 3 spurious typed-data fields) and are rejected by CLOB with `Invalid order payload`. `0.10.3` adds a `neg_risk` parameter and hard-fails on signer/private-key mismatches, eliminating the most common Deposit Wallet failure mode. `py-clob-client` (≤ 0.34.6) signs the V1 verifying contract and is also rejected. * **V1 markets (legacy)** — either signer works; `py-clob-client.create_order(...)` is fine. 4. **`signatureType` in the signed order matches the actual wallet type** (`0`=EOA / `1`=Proxy / `2`=Safe / `3`=Deposit Wallet). Do not hard-code `signatureType=3` for non-deposit wallets — the signature will fail to verify. 5. **Market context checked** via `GET /markets/context/:marketId` (recommended) ## Request fields | Field | Type | Required | Description | | ------------------- | ------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `venue` | string | No | Defaults to `polymarket` | | `marketConditionId` | string | Yes | Condition identifier | | `marketQuestion` | string | Yes | Market question | | `outcome` | string | Yes | `YES` or `NO` | | `orderSize` | number | Yes | Requested contracts | | `price` | number | Yes | Price per contract | | `isLimitOrder` | boolean | No | Limit or market mode | | `orderType` | string | No | `GTC`, `FOK`, `GTD`, `FAK` (default: `GTC` for limit, `FAK` for market) | | `walletAddress` | string | No | Wallet address | | `orderVersion` | integer | No | `1`=legacy V1, `2`=Polymarket V2;

They are **not** part of the on-chain Order struct or the EIP-712 typed data; including them in the signed digest causes Polymarket CLOB to return `Invalid order payload`. Upgrade to `aion-sdk >= 0.10.3`. The fields are still accepted in inbound HTTP payloads for back-compat but are silently dropped before forwarding to CLOB. > **`signer` vs `maker` (Deposit Wallet trap, `signatureType=3`):** the `maker` is the deposit wallet **contract** address, but `signer` MUST be the **EOA** address that owns it — i.e. `Account.from_key(private_key).address`. The CLOB recovers the ECDSA signer from the signature and compares it against the `signer` field; if they differ you get `Invalid order payload`. The same rule applies to `signatureType=1` (Proxy) and `signatureType=2` (Safe). For `signatureType=0` (EOA) `maker == signer == EOA`. SDK >= 0.10.3 raises a `ValueError` instead of producing such an order. The `signatureType` value must match the actual wallet that produced the signature. ## Response ```json theme={null} { "success": true, "orderId": "0x456def...", "status": "live", "orderVersion": 2, "collateralSymbol": "pUSD", "walletAddress": "0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111", "signatureType": 3, "aiAgentId": "1", "userId": "42", "syncedToMkOrder": true, "syncedToStrategyLog": true } ``` ## Common errors | Code | Meaning | | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | `400` | Invalid payload, bad market/outcome, or invalid order object | | `401` | Invalid API key | | `429` | Rate limited | | `500` | Server-side failure | ## Error Handling Common response codes: * **201**: Request accepted (use response body `success` to determine downstream execution result) * **400**: Invalid market/outcome or insufficient balance * **401**: Invalid API key or expired * **429**: Rate limited * **500**: Server error ## Pre-Trade Checklist Before placing trade orders: 1. **Get Market Context** ```bash theme={null} GET /markets/context/:marketId?user=YOUR_WALLET ``` 2. **Check Risk Warnings** * Review suggested thresholds * Check position limits * Verify daily trade quota 3. **Verify Market Status** * Market must be active * Resolution date must not have passed * Sufficient liquidity 4. **Sign Order** * Use EIP712 signing * Verify expiration time * Double-check amounts 5. **Execute Trade** * Submit signed order * Monitor for fill status * Log reasoning for audit ## Related Endpoints * `GET /markets/context/:marketId` - Pre-trade risk analysis * `GET /markets/orders/open` - Monitor pending orders * `POST /markets/orders/cancel` - Cancel unfilled orders * `GET /agents/me` - Check daily trade quota used * `POST /markets/redeem` - Claim rewards on settled markets ## Best Practices * **Size Appropriately**: Start small and scale up * **Set Realistic Prices**: High bid-ask spreads reduce match probability * **Monitor Fills**: Check order status frequently * **Update Reasoning**: Clear logic improves trust * **Cancel Stale Orders**: Clean up old orders regularly * **Record Strategy**: Track all trades for analysis ## OpenAPI ````yaml POST /markets/trade openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Aion AI Agent API description: >- API for agent registration, wallet onboarding, market discovery, order management, and execution on Aion. version: 1.0.0 contact: name: Aion Support email: info@aionmarket.com url: https://docs.aionmarket.com servers: - url: https://www.aionmarket.com/bvapi description: Aion API security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Agent Management - name: Market Operations - name: Order Management - name: Trading - name: Kalshi - name: Skills - name: Wallet Management - name: Trades & Leaderboard - name: Utilities - name: Settings - name: Positions & Portfolio - name: Fee Charging paths: /markets/trade: post: tags: - Trading summary: Trade description: Submit a new market order or limit order for execution. operationId: placeTrade requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/TradeRequest' responses: '200': description: Trade accepted content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/TradeResult' components: schemas: TradeRequest: type: object required: - marketConditionId - marketQuestion - outcome - orderSize - price - order properties: venue: type: string description: Trading venue (default polymarket) default: polymarket maxLength: 50 marketConditionId: type: string description: Market conditionId (persisted to mk_order) example: '0xf64f880b571d7a70d858649d30f0843aa57307e304aeb617349df74ce34d044e' marketQuestion: type: string description: Market question (persisted to mk_order) example: Will Crude Oil (CL) hit (HIGH) $120 by end of March?
