Event Dynamics & Portfolio Management

Event Dynamics & Portfolio Management

Understanding shares and contracts is vital for navigating the TradeX platform effectively. This article explores the concept of event shares and provides insights into managing your portfolio efficiently.

Understanding Event Shares

Event shares represent a unit of ownership in a specific event outcome. The value of these shares fluctuates based on the probability of the event occurring. For example, if the rate for a 'Yes' share is 30%, it indicates that 30% of traders believe the event will happen, while 70% believe it will not. This dynamic reflects the collective sentiment and predictions of the market participants.
