Leverage Limits by Market

Not all markets support 10x leverage. We set leverage caps based on:

Liquidity

Can we exit a large position without excessive slippage?

Volatility

How violently does this market move?

Time to Close

How far away is the market close date?
Lower-liquidity or higher-volatility markets may be capped at 5x or 2x. The maximum available leverage is shown when you open a position.

Position Limits

To protect the vault and ensure we can execute liquidations cleanly:
Limit TypeDescription
Per-position limitsMaximum position size varies by market
Per-user limitsTotal exposure caps based on account history
Per-market limitsAggregate open interest caps per market
These limits scale with market liquidity. If a market’s volume drops significantly, limits may tighten.

How Positions Close Before Resolution

Every position closes before the underlying event resolves. This happens automatically at the market’s close date.

When Auto-Close Triggers

1

Positions Closed

All open positions in that market are closed at market price
2

Settlement

Profits and losses are settled
3

Funds Returned

Funds return to your account (or the vault, if liquidated)
You can always close manually before auto-close. There’s no penalty for early exit.
