Key Information:

Using the Order Book:

• Green rows (Bids): Orders from buyers willing to purchase at that price.
• Red rows (Asks): Orders from sellers willing to sell at that price.
• Spread: The gap between the highest bid and lowest ask indicates market liquidity.
• Depth: More orders near the current price means better liquidity for larger trades.

🛒 Order Types

Olympus currently supports Market Buys, Market Sells, and Limit Buys. (Limit Sells are coming soon!)

Market Buys

• How it works: You buy immediately at the best available price.
• Why use it: You want to get into the position now, regardless of a small price difference.
• The Cost: You "cross the spread," paying the higher Ask price to buy from a seller. In volatile markets, this spread can be wide, immediately putting your position at a slight loss.

Market Sells

• How it works: You sell immediately at the best available price (hitting the Bid).
• Why use it: You want to exit the position immediately to secure a profit or prevent further loss.
• The Cost: You sell into the lower Bid price. Just like buying, exiting via market order means crossing the spread, effectively receiving slightly less than the "mark" price.

Limit Buys

• How it works: You set the exact price you are willing to pay. Your order sits in the order book (on the Bid side) until a seller matches it.
• Why use it: It creates "Maker" volume and allows you to determine your entry price.
  • Slippage protection: You never pay more than your limit price.
  • Spread savings: You avoid crossing the spread. Over hundreds of trades, paying the spread kills PnL. Limit orders let the market come to you.
• The Risk: If the price moves up quickly, your order might never fill, and you miss the trade.

📱 Mobile Experience

Market pages are fully responsive. On mobile, use the tab bar to switch between:

• Trade: The trading panel.
• Chart: Price history chart.
• Book: Order book.
• Activity: Live trades and your positions.

💯 Tips for Using Market Pages

• ✅ Check Liquidity: Before trading, look at the order book to ensure there's enough liquidity for your trade size.
• ✅ Watch the Spread: A tight spread (small gap between bid and ask) means better prices.
• ✅ Monitor Live Trades: Large trades can indicate informed traders or whales moving.
• ✅ Use Timeframes: Zoom out to see the bigger picture, zoom in for recent price action.
• ✅ Compare Outcomes: For multi-outcome events, compare probabilities across all options.
