The ccxt for prediction markets. A unified API for accessing prediction market data across multiple exchanges.
NOTE: pmxt is an open-source infrastructure tool. It has no native token, coin, or investment vehicle.
Why pmxt?
Different prediction market platforms have different APIs, data formats, and conventions. pmxt provides a single, consistent interface to work with all of them.
Supported Exchanges

Installation
Ensure that Node.js is installed and the node command is available on your PATH.
Python
Node.js
Quickstart
Prediction markets are structured in a hierarchy to group related information.
- Event: The broad topic (e.g., "Who will Trump nominate as Fed Chair?")
- Market: A specific tradeable question (e.g., "Will Trump nominate Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair?")
- Outcome: The actual share you buy (e.g., "Yes" or "No")
Python
import pmxt api = pmxt.Exchange() # 1. Search for the broad Event events = api.fetch_events(query='Who will Trump nominate as Fed Chair?') fed_event = events[0] # 2. Find the specific Market within that event warsh = fed_event.markets.match('Kevin Warsh') print(f"Price: {warsh.yes.price}")
TypeScript
import pmxt from 'pmxtjs'; const api = new pmxt.Exchange(); // 1. Search for the broad Event const events = await api.fetchEvents({ query: 'Who will Trump nominate as Fed Chair?' }); const fedEvent = events[0]; // 2. Find the specific Market within that event const warsh = fedEvent.markets.match('Kevin Warsh'); console.log(`Price: ${warsh.yes?.price}`);
Trading
pmxt supports unified trading across exchanges.
Setup
To trade, you must provide your private credentials during initialization.
Polymarket
exchange = pmxt.Polymarket( private_key=os.getenv('POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY'), proxy_address=os.getenv('POLYMARKET_PROXY_ADDRESS'), # Optional: For proxy trading signature_type='gnosis-safe' # Default )
Kalshi
exchange = pmxt.Kalshi( api_key=os.getenv('KALSHI_API_KEY'), private_key=os.getenv('KALSHI_PRIVATE_KEY') # RSA Private Key )
Limitless
exchange = pmxt.Limitless( api_key=os.getenv('LIMITLESS_API_KEY'), private_key=os.getenv('LIMITLESS_PRIVATE_KEY') # For order signing (EIP-712) )
Trading Example (Python)
import pmxt import os # Initialize with credentials (e.g., Polymarket) exchange = pmxt.Polymarket( private_key=os.getenv('POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY'), proxy_address=os.getenv('POLYMARKET_PROXY_ADDRESS') ) # 1. Check Balance balance = exchange.fetch_balance() print(f"Available balance: {balance[0].available}") # 2. Fetch markets markets = exchange.fetch_markets(query='Trump') # 3. Place an Order (using outcome shorthand) order = exchange.create_order( outcome=markets[0].yes, side='buy', type='limit', price=0.33, amount=100 ) print(f"Order Status: {order.status}")
