Before You Start

  • Sign in to your BettorEdge account before starting this walkthrough.
  • Open the market you want to bet on and make sure trading is available.
  • This guide covers a market order, which uses the best available price at the time you submit.

Expected Outcome

You will place a bet on BettorEdge using a market order and understand how that differs from setting your own price with a limit order.

Prerequisites

  • You need a funded BettorEdge account or an account eligible to place orders.
  • You should be on desktop web for the clearest view of the order ticket.
  • If you want to choose your own price, use a separate limit-order guide instead of this workflow.

Tips

  • A market order takes the best currently available price instead of letting you set your own.
  • If your goal is to choose a specific price, place a limit order instead.
  • Reviewing whether an order filled, remained open, or how a position is performing should be handled in a separate order and position status guide.
