Market Usage Guide
Navigating the market list
The market list is designed to help you find active opportunities quickly.
- Hot highlights markets with strong recent attention.
- Live surfaces markets approaching resolution.
- New shows recently listed markets.
- Additional sorting options can help you prioritize by time to expiry or market activity.
If you plan to revisit a market, use follow or save controls where available.
What to check before trading
Before entering a position, review the following:
- The exact market question
- The current Yes and No prices
- The market expiry time
- The rules or resolution criteria
In prediction markets, wording matters. A good habit is to read the market rules before placing size, especially in event-driven markets where edge cases can affect settlement.
Reading the market detail page
The detail page typically includes:
- Price chart for recent market movement
- Rules describing the event and settlement standard
- Countdown or deadline information showing time remaining
- Discussion tools for comments and market conversation
Price mechanics and risk
On Signa, market prices are structured as probabilities:
- Yes price + No price = 1
- A Yes price of
0.60implies a market-implied probability of roughly60% - A No price of
0.40implies the complementary view
Your downside is limited to the capital you commit to a trade. If you buy 50 USDT worth of a position, the maximum loss on that position is 50 USDT.
Markets that reach expiry move into settlement. If the outcome is disputed, the process includes a challenge window before final payout.
Social and collaborative features
Signa also includes social tools around market participation:
- Comment on markets to compare views with other traders
- Follow markets or users when notification features are available
- Use copy-trading features carefully and review any associated rules before enabling them
These tools can help with discovery and discussion, but they should not replace your own reading of the market rules and risk.
