We present an analysis of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer observation from a newly discovered transient source: Swift J151857.0-572147. The obtained polarization degree (PD) and angle are 0.3% ± 0.3% and -24° ± 26° respectively in 2-8 keV within 68% confidence level errors, and polarization results are below MDP₉₉ in all energy bins, with the upper limit on PD of 0.8% in the 2-8 keV energy range. No quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are detected in this observation. The polarization and QPO analyses support the hypothesis that the source was in the high soft state, and the results are consistent with predictions for a thin accretion disk model.
