CATEGORY: TRADING

How do I make my first trade on Bayse?

Making your first trade on Bayse is simple. Once you've funded your wallet, browse the available markets and select a market you're interested in. Choose your position ("Yes" or "No"), enter the amount you'd like to trade, and confirm your order. Your shares will then appear in your portfolio, where you can track the market and manage your positions until the outcome is resolved.

Where do I find my trades?

You can find all your trades in the Portfolio or Activity section of the Bayse app. Here, you'll see your active trades, open positions, and completed prediction markets, along with their status, performance, and outcomes. This makes it easy to track your predictions, monitor market activity, and review your trading history in one place.

What are "Market Summary" and "Market Rules"?

Every market on Bayse includes a Market Summary and Market Rules section. The Market Summary provides key information about the market, including the event being predicted, relevant context, and the settlement timeline. The Market Rules explain exactly how the outcome will be determined and resolved. We strongly recommend reviewing both sections before placing a trade to ensure you understand how the market works and how it will settle.

What are "Yes" and "No" shares?

"Yes" and "No" shares are the two positions you can take in a market on Bayse. Buy "Yes" if you believe an event will happen, or "No" if you believe it won't. For example, in a market asking, "Will Team A win?", you would buy "Yes" if you expect Team A to win and "No" if you don't. If the market resolves in your favour, your winning shares pay out when the event is settled.

How much money do I need to start trading?

You can start trading on Bayse with as little as ₦100 or $1. The minimum amount required depends on the price of the shares in a market, but you can participate with any amount above the minimum trade size. This makes it easy for anyone to start trading markets, test strategies, and build positions without needing a large bankroll.

How long does it take for a market to be resolved?

Most markets are resolved within 4 - 12 hours after the outcome becomes clear. In some cases, resolution may take longer if additional verification is required to ensure the result is accurate, fair, and in line with the market rules. Once a market is resolved, payouts are automatically credited to the accounts of winning traders.

Can I trade in multiple events at once?

Yes. You can trade across multiple markets at the same time — sports, cryptocurrency, entertainment, politics, or other categories. Each market operates independently, meaning your profits, losses, and positions are tied only to the specific event you're trading. This allows you to diversify your trades across different markets and opportunities on Bayse.

Can I cancel a trade after placing it?

No. Once a trade is confirmed on Bayse, it cannot be cancelled or reversed. This helps maintain the integrity and fairness of our markets. However, if the market is still open, you can sell your shares before the event is resolved. This allows you to lock in profits, reduce potential losses, or adjust your position based on new information.

How do I monitor my trades?

You can monitor all your trades from the Portfolio section of the Bayse app. Here, you'll find your active prediction markets, entry price, current market value, available cash-out options, and profit or loss for each position. You can also review your completed trades, track your trading history, and monitor how your predictions have performed over time.

What happens if the event outcome matches my prediction?

If the outcome of a market matches your prediction, your winning shares will pay out at their full value (₦100 or $1 per share) once the market is resolved. Your profit depends on the price you originally paid for your shares. The lower your entry price, the higher your potential return when your prediction is correct.

What if the event doesn't go as predicted?

If a prediction market settles against your position, your shares will expire with no value (₦0 or $0), and you'll lose the amount you invested in that trade. Every market on Bayse is resolved transparently using the Market Rules and verified against official, reliable sources to ensure every outcome is fair and accurate.

What types of events can I predict on Bayse?

Bayse offers markets across sports, finance, cryptocurrency, entertainment, politics and other real-world events. Whether you're predicting a football match, Bitcoin's price, election outcomes, or music chart performance, there's a market for it. Every market includes a clear Market Summary, timeline, and Market Rules, so you know exactly how the outcome will be determined before you trade.

Can I trade shares before the event ends?

Yes. You can buy or sell shares before the event ends, provided trading is still available. Share prices change in real time based on market activity, allowing you to react to new information, lock in profits, or reduce potential losses before the market is resolved.

How are events verified and resolved?

Bayse verifies every market using official and publicly available sources to ensure each outcome is accurate and transparent. Once the result is confirmed according to the Market Rules, the market is resolved and payouts are automatically credited to the accounts of winning traders.

What does it mean when a market is "settled"?

A settled market means the event has ended, the outcome has been verified, and the prediction market has been officially resolved. Winning trades are automatically paid into your Bayse wallet, while losing shares expire with no value. You can view all settled markets and your payouts in the Portfolio or Activity section of the Bayse app.

Why can't I place a trade?

If you're unable to place a trade on Bayse, first check that you have enough funds in your Bayse wallet, the market is still open, and you're using the latest version of the app. If you've confirmed all of the above and the issue persists, please contact our support team through the in-app chat for assistance.

Can I trade on the same market with both 'Yes' and 'No'?

No. You can only hold one position in a prediction market at a time — either "Yes" or "No". This helps maintain a fair and transparent trading environment while preventing market abuse and exploitation. If you change your position, you can sell your existing shares (if the market is still open) before taking a new position.

Why are some markets not available to me?

Some markets on Bayse may not be available due to your location, regulatory requirements, or platform rules. This helps ensure compliance with applicable laws and provides a secure trading experience for all users. If you believe a market is unavailable in error, please contact our support team through the in-app chat or email support@bayse.markets for assistance.

Are markets resolved based on the time I made my trade?

No. Markets on Bayse are resolved based on the final outcome of the event, not when you placed your trade. All positions in a market are settled according to the Market Rules, resolution criteria, and timelines outlined in the Market Summary. As long as your position is active when the market resolves, your payout will depend solely on the outcome of the event.

CATEGORY: SHARES

How are share prices set on Bayse?

Share prices on Bayse are determined by supply and demand in each prediction market. As more users buy "Yes" shares, the price of "Yes" typically rises, while the price of "No" adjusts accordingly — and vice versa. This dynamic pricing means share prices reflect the market's collective view of how likely an event is to happen, updating in real time as traders buy and sell shares.

Does Bayse trade, influence, or manipulate market outcomes?

No. Bayse is a neutral prediction market platform and does not trade, influence, or manipulate market outcomes. Our role is to provide a secure and transparent marketplace where users trade based on their own predictions and opinions. Every market is resolved using official, verifiable sources and the Market Rules, ensuring outcomes are fair, accurate, and independent of Bayse.

Are share prices fixed?

No. Share prices on Bayse are dynamic and change continuously as users buy and sell shares in a market. Prices can rise or fall multiple times before a market is resolved, depending on trading activity, demand, and new information. This real-time pricing helps reflect the market's latest view on the likelihood of an event occurring.

Can share prices be manipulated?

No. Bayse does not manually set or adjust share prices. Prices are determined by real-time trading activity, with supply and demand driving movements in each prediction market. To help maintain a fair and transparent marketplace, all users trade under the same market rules, and prices reflect collective market activity, not manual intervention by Bayse.
