The Forecast Heatmap displays the market's current expectations for where Bitcoin may settle.
Each price range represents a potential outcome, and the market assigns a probability to each outcome based on trading activity.
As participants buy and sell contracts, the forecast updates continuously.
Before placing a trade, review the forecast and identify the outcomes the market currently considers most likely.
You may agree with the market's assessment or believe that a different outcome is more likely.
Your goal is to identify opportunities where your expectations differ from the market's expectations.
Choose the Bitcoin price range you believe Bitcoin will settle within when the market resolves.
Each price range has its own contract price and payout structure.
Higher-probability outcomes generally cost more, while lower-probability outcomes generally cost less.
Enter the number of contracts you would like to purchase.
The total cost of your trade will depend on:
The current contract price
The number of contracts purchased
Before confirming your trade, Glimpse displays:
Total Cost
Number of Contracts
Maximum Payout
Potential Profit
Review these values carefully before proceeding.
Once you are satisfied with the trade details, confirm your purchase.
Your position will appear in your portfolio and can be monitored as market expectations change.
You can hold your contracts until settlement or sell them before the market resolves.
If market expectations move in your favor, you may be able to sell your position for a profit before settlement.
When the market reaches its settlement time, the final Bitcoin price is determined according to the market rules.
If Bitcoin settles within your selected price range, your contracts become winning contracts and pay out automatically.
If Bitcoin settles outside your selected range, the contracts expire worthless.
Any winnings are credited directly to your Glimpse wallet.
