What is a position?

Your position in a market is the direction and quantity of contracts that you own in that market.

If you own both, Yes and No contracts in a market, your position’s “direction” is Yes if you own more Yes contracts than No contracts, and vice versa. Your position’s quantity is the difference between the number of Yes contracts and No contracts that you own.
