# WhaleGrader agent guide

WhaleGrader is a public scoreboard for large trades on Polymarket and Kalshi. It records trades of $10,000 or more and grades each one against the price paid after the market resolves. It is not a trading venue, not a broker, and not financial advice. It does not take orders.
