# FAQs

Find answers to common Predict questions, including how to place limit and market orders, order limits per market, and how market resolution works.

#### How do I place a limit order?

Navigate to your desired market's page. In the 'Buy' modal, select your preferred action (**Buy** or **Sell**) and order type (**Limit**). Next, choose the share you want to set the order for (**YES** or **NO**).

From here, you'll need to input the price that a single share must reach before your order is triggered, and the number of shares you want to buy. For instance, if you wanted to purchase 500 YES shares at a price of 60¢, you'd input **60** in the *Limit Price* field and **500** in the *Shares* field.

When this information is provided, you can view your projected outcome should the market resolve in your favor under *To Win*.

Finally, select your preferred order expiry from the drop-down (or leave it as is if you don't want it to expire), and click **Create** **Buy Order** / **Create Sell Order**.

Once the order is confirmed, it will appear under the **Open Orders** tab on the market.

#### How do I place a market order?

Navigate to your desired market's page. In the 'Buy' modal, select your preferred action (**Buy** or **Sell**). Next, choose the type of share you want to buy (**YES** or **NO**).

Finally, input the amount you'd like to spend to populate the **To Win** and **You Get** fields. If you're happy with the result, hit the **Buy X / Sell X** button to initiate the transaction.

{% hint style="warning" %}
As a market order takes from the order book and could potentially match with invalid orders, you may receive less shares than estimated.
{% endhint %}

#### How many orders can I have open concurrently?

On a single market, you can have up to **10 limit orders** open at the same time.

Note that this is a **per-market limit** — so you could, for example, have 30 orders open across three separate markets.

#### When do markets resolve?

It depends on the market. You can find this information for any given market on its respective page.

#### How do resolutions work?

As of March 2026, Predict uses UMA's optimistic oracle for resolutions.
