Markets
Market Rules#
Overview#
-
Markets are resolved according to the rules set forth on the market page.
-
The rules specify the resolution source, the market end date, and they outline how the market should resolve in various edge-cases.
-
The market title describes the market, but the rules define how it should be resolved.
It is important to read the rules before trading in a market.
Clarifications#
In rare cases, circumstances occur that were not foreseen at a market’s creation and it becomes necessary to clarify rules after trading has begun. In these cases Polymarket may issue an “Additional context” update to the rules.
If you believe a clarification is necessary for a market, the best place to request a clarification is in the Polymarket Discord #market-review channel.
