The life of a market
1
Open — trading is live
From the moment a market goes live until shortly before its resolve time, you can buy and sell any outcome. Prices move with every trade, so odds reflect the latest information.
2
Frozen — trading closes
Before resolution, the market freezes. No new trades are accepted; positions are locked in while the outcome is determined.
3
Resolved — winnings become claimable
Kash’s oracle resolves the market to its winning outcome(s). Winning positions become claimable — use Claim Winnings in your Portfolio.
4
If a market can't resolve — refunds
In the rare case a market is cancelled, every position is refunded at its last market price, and a Claim Refund option appears in your Portfolio — a recovery path enforced by the contract itself.
Picking your moment
- Early positioning — new markets and scheduled events (matches, earnings, elections) often offer better prices before the crowd arrives
- When news breaks — prices adjust as information spreads; if you know something the market hasn’t priced in yet, that’s your edge
- Any time before the freeze — you can enter or exit a position whenever the market is open; you don’t have to hold until resolution
