Market Order
An order executed immediately at the best available price. Guarantees execution but not price.

Market Order is a fundamental concept in prediction market trading. In platforms like Polymarket with thousands of active markets, understanding market order is essential for consistent profitability. TradeSphere data across 5,400+ markets shows that traders who master these concepts significantly outperform those trading on instinct.
