# Market View

## Market View

The **Market View** screen displays all key information about a selected Polymarket market and is where all trading actions begin.

***

### Market information

At the top of the screen, you will see:

* **Event title**
* **Market question**

Example:

```
🎯 Who will Trump nominate as Fed Chair?

📊 Will Trump nominate Kevin Hassett as the next Fed chair?
```

This information describes the event and the specific market you are trading.

***

### Outcomes

Each market contains two outcomes:

for example:

* **Yes or No**
* **Over or Under**

You trade by buying or selling shares of one of these outcomes.

***

### Best prices

For each outcome, polyquant displays the best available prices.

Example:

```
Yes
Ask (market): 0.4¢ (x250.000)   Bid: 0.3¢ (x333.333)
Liquidity (best): Ask: 55197 ($220.79)   Bid: 63962 ($191.89)
```

Displayed values include:

* **Ask price** — price to buy immediately
* **Bid price** — price to sell immediately
* **Implied odds** (shown as multipliers)
* **Available liquidity** at best prices

***

### Liquidity

Liquidity shows how many shares and how much USD value is available at the best bid and ask.

Higher liquidity means:

* better execution
* lower slippage
* faster fills

***

### Trading actions

At the bottom of the market view, you will find action buttons:

* **Buy Yes**
* **Buy No**
* **Sell Yes**
* **Sell No**
* **Refresh prices**

These buttons open the trading screen for the selected outcome.

***

### Refresh prices

Prices on Polymarket change frequently.

Use **Refresh prices** to:

* update bid and ask prices
* refresh liquidity data
* ensure accurate execution before trading

***

### When to use Market View

Use Market View to:

* analyze prices and liquidity
* decide between Yes and No outcomes
* enter buy or sell trades
* monitor market conditions

***

### Next steps

After selecting an action, continue with:

* **Buying & Selling** — placing orders
* **Orders** — managing open limit orders\
