Accepted Answer

They are prices set by traders on OCTORAX, shown as a chance in percent or as odds in the format you choose. Injuries, results and line-ups change what traders are willing to pay.

Question 3

How do sports payouts work, and what is the minimum?

Accepted Answer

A share of the correct outcome pays $1 at settlement; others pay nothing. The minimum order is 1 in shares, and you can sell a futures position at any time before it closes.

How are season-long sports markets settled?

Accepted Answer

By the official result of the league, governing body or award organiser named in the rules, once it is final. If an event is cancelled, the market is settled as its rules describe.
