Limit Orders
Set your target entry price and walk away. PredyX monitors the market and executes automatically the instant the price is right.
How Limit Orders Work
A limit order watches a Polymarket market for a specific price level on YES or NO shares. When the market price reaches your target, PredyX executes a market order immediately on your behalf.
Placing a Limit Order

Interactive Mode
Type /limit without arguments to use the interactive flow:
Find Market
Paste a Polymarket URL or search by keyword. PredyX confirms the market name and current price.
Choose Side & Amount
Select YES or NO. Enter the USDC amount you want to spend.
Set Target Price
Enter your target entry price (0.01–0.99). PredyX shows estimated shares at that price and confirms.

Limit Order Expiry

/limit [market] YES 50 0.65 --expires 7d # auto-cancel after 7 days /limit [market] YES 50 0.65 --expires 2025-06-01
Fees
Limit order execution carries no additional fee beyond Polymarket's standard protocol fee. PredyX charges no fee for limit orders. See Fees & Pricing.
