What Is an Order Book? Reading Market Depth | HiYesNo Academy
An order book shows buy and sell orders waiting to be matched in a market. It helps users see how much depth exists around different YES/NO prices.
On HiYesNo, read the order book together with last price, spread, and available size. It reflects participant interest, not a guaranteed outcome.
Key Points
- Read the market question and rules first.
