+
+### Optional Requirements
+- Docker and Docker Compose (for containerized deployment)
+
+## Installation
+
+### Standard Setup
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/username/poly-market-maker.git
+cd poly-market-maker
+```
+
+2. Run the installation script:
+```bash
+./install.sh
+```
+

-## Description
+### Docker Setup
 
-The keeper is an automated market maker for CLOB markets.
-Places and cancels orders to keep open orders near the midpoint price according to one of two strategies.
+1. Ensure Docker and Docker Compose are installed
+2. Configure environment files as mentioned above
+3. Build and run using Docker Compose
 
-## Requirements
+## Configuration
 
-- Python 3.10
+### Environment Variables
 
-## Setup
+Required variables in `config.env`:
 
-- Run `./install.sh` to set up the virtual environment and install depedencies.
+- `CONDITION_ID`: Hex string format market condition identifier
+- `STRATEGY`: Trading strategy selection ("Bands" or "AMM")
+- `CONFIG`: Path to strategy configuration file
 
-- Create a `.env` file. See `.env.example`.
+## Available Strategies
 
-- Modify the entries in `config.env`.
+### AMM Strategy
+- Automated Market Making with dynamic pricing
+- [Detailed AMM Documentation](./docs/strategies/amm.md)
 
-- Modify the corresponding strategy config in `./config`, if desired.
+### Bands Strategy
+- Price band-based market making
+- [Detailed Bands Documentation](./docs/strategies/bands.md)
 
-## Usage
+## Operation
 
-- Start the keeper with `./run-local.sh`.
+### Starting the Keeper
 
-### Usage with Docker
+Standard mode:
+```bash
+./run-local.sh
+```
 
-- To start the keeper with docker, run `docker compose up`.
+Docker mode:
+```bash
+docker compose up
+```
 
-## Config
+### Strategy Operation Cycle
 
-The `config.env` file defines 3 environment variables:
+The keeper operates on a configurable cycle (default: 30 seconds) with the following steps:
 
-- `CONDITION_ID`, the condition id of the market in hex string format.
-- `STRATEGY`, the strategy to use, either "Bands" or "AMM" (case insensitive)
-- `CONFIG`, the path to the strategy config file.
+1. Market price discovery
+2. Order calculation
+3. Current position analysis
+4. Order optimization
+5. Order cancellation
+6. New order placement
 
-## Strategies
+### Monitoring and Maintenance
 
-- [Amm](./docs/strategies/amm.md)
-- [Bands](./docs/strategies/bands.md)
+- The keeper logs important events and trading activities
+- Graceful shutdown is triggered by SIGTERM
+- All open orders are automatically cancelled on shutdown
 
-### Strategy Lifecycle
+## Contributing
 
-Every `sync_interval` (the default is 30s), the strategies do the following:
+Contributions are welcome! Please feel free to submit a Pull Request.
 
-1. Fetch the current midpoint price from the CLOB
-2. Compute expected orders.
-3. Compare expected orders to open orders.
-4. Compute open orders to cancel and new orders to place to achieve or approximate the expected orders.
-5. Cancel orders.
-6. Place new orders.
+## License
 
-When the app receives a SIGTERM, all orders are cancelled and the app exits gracefully.
