Based on the non-relativistic quantum chromodynamics factorization formalism, the polarization parameters $\lambda_{\theta\phi}$ and $\lambda_{\phi}$ of $J/\psi$ hadroproduction are analyzed in helicity frame and calculated at QCD next-to-leading order for the first time. For prompt $J/\psi$ production, we take into account the feeddown contributions from $\chi_{cJ}$ and $\psi(2S)$ decays. The theoretical predictions for the polarization parameters $\lambda_{\theta\phi}$ and $\lambda_{\phi}$ of $J/\psi$ are presented. With the theoretical results we have done the fit to the experimental measurements on yield and polarization for $J/\psi$ hadroproduction simultaneously, and found that the results are coincide with the experimental measurements at the LHC quite well.
