How Do I Read a Polymarket Orderbook?

The orderbook shows all pending buy and sell orders at different price levels. Auto displays the best bid, best ask, spread width, and depth on both sides — helping you assess how liquid a market is before trading.

Orderbook Term
Definition

Best bid

Highest price a buyer is willing to pay

Best ask

Lowest price a seller is willing to accept

Spread

Gap between best bid and best ask

Depth

Total order size available at each price level

A tight spread (small gap between bid and ask) indicates a liquid market with easier trade execution. A wide spread means your fill price may differ significantly from the displayed mid-price.
