Every market has two sides: Yes and No.
  • Buy Yes if you think the event will happen.
  • Buy No if you think it will not.
When the event is over, the market resolves.
  • If the event happens, Yes pays $1 and No pays $0.
  • If it does not, No pays $1 and Yes pays $0.
Payouts are automatically added to your cash balance.

​
Example

You buy 10 Yes shares on Will the Cowboys win?
  • If they win, you get $10.
  • If they lose, you get $0.
You win $1 per share when your side is right. Diagram showing Yes and No payouts at resolution
You can sell your shares at any time before the event is over. The price depends on what other traders are willing to pay.
