When to Sell
- Taking Profit
- Cutting Losses
- Rebalancing
If you bought shares at a lower price and the market has moved in your favor, selling locks in your profit without waiting for resolution.Example:
- Bought 100 YES shares at $0.30 ($30 cost)
- Current YES price: $0.70
- Sell all 100 shares for ~$70
- Profit: ~$40
Partial Sells
You don’t have to sell your entire position. Enter any quantity up to your total holdings:- Sell 50% to take some profit while keeping upside
- Sell a specific dollar amount worth of shares
- Reduce to a size you’re comfortable holding to resolution
