Closing a Prediction Market Position
Closing a prediction market position means reducing or removing exposure before the contract reaches final settlement. The exact mechanics depend on the platform and contract structure.
Why it matters to you
Traders may close positions because: their probability estimate has changed, the market has reached their estimated fair value, new information has invalidated the original thesis, or they no longer want the exposure. A prediction market position does not always need to be held until the event resolves.
