# Trader First Trade

> Fire a webhook the very first time a tracked trader ever trades on Polymarket.

<Note>
  **Event:** `trader_first_trade` \
  **Cost:** 0.1 credits per delivery
</Note>

The `trader_first_trade` event fires when a tracked trader executes their first-ever trade on Polymarket, delivering exactly once per trader for the lifetime of their account. The full payload schema is in the auto-generated [Trader First Trade callback](/api-reference/webhook-callbacks/first-trade-callback) reference; this page documents the filters and matching behavior.

## When to use this

* Onboard newly active wallets into a watchlist the moment they place their debut trade.
* Detect fresh capital entering Polymarket before a trader builds any history.
* Trigger welcome or attribution flows that should run once per trader, never on repeat trades.

## Subscription filters

Add these to the `filters` object when you create the subscription.

| `min_price` | number | Minimum outcome probability, `0.0`–`1.0`. |
| `max_price` | number | Maximum outcome probability, `0.0`–`1.0`. |
| `condition_ids` | string\[] | Restrict to specific markets by condition ID (max 500). |
| `event_slugs` | string\[] | Restrict to specific events by slug (max 500). |
