Overview
Rung Terminal is a desktop trading terminal for Polymarket. This is the manual: what each screen does, and what happens when you click.
What it is
Polymarket runs in a browser and is built around a market page. Rung Terminal is a native Windows application built around a ladder — a vertical price scale with the whole order book on it, one click per order. If you have used a betting exchange or a futures ladder, the shape will be familiar.
It talks to Polymarket's own public API. Your orders go to the same order book; there is no separate venue, no separate balance, and no account with us.
Your keys stay on your machine
There is no Rung Terminal account and no server that holds funds. The wallet lives in an encrypted vault on your own PC, unlocked by an app password you choose. If you already trade on Polymarket, you import that wallet and see the same balance and the same positions.
Where to start
- Install — download, first launch, and the Windows SmartScreen warning
- Sign in — create a wallet, import an existing one, or just browse read-only
- Deposit — get money in
- The ladder — placing, cancelling and hedging
- The grid — many markets at once
- Withdraw — get money out
- Troubleshooting
What it does not do
- Windows only, for now. There is no macOS or Linux build.
- English only. The application interface is English; only this manual is translated.
- No custody, no support desk that can move funds. Every action is signed locally by your own key.
