Overview

Interacting with Limitless’s order book is simple and familiar for both traders and market makers. Market orders provide instant execution at the best available price, while limit orders allow you to set your price, participate in price discovery, and earn rewards.

The Orderbook

Each market has a Yes and No order book, with separate Bids (buy orders) and Asks (sell orders).
Orderbook example
For example, in a market about the BTC price:
  • Traders are offering to sell “Yes” shares at 51 cents — this is the price you’d pay if you placed a Market Order to buy.
  • Traders are bidding 49 cents to buy “Yes” shares — the amount you’d receive if you placed a Market Order to sell.
The difference between them is the Spread — the lower the better.
