Getting Started (Onboarding Journey)

The platform guide on the Prediction markets, Perpetual markets, Leverage and other factors.

Prophex is designed to be as intuitive as a betting app but as powerful as a perpetual futures exchange.


1. Find a Market

  • Browse markets across crypto, politics, sports, and culture.

  • Each market has two clear outcomes (e.g., BTC above $60k vs below $60k, Team A vs Team B).

  • Starting odds are seeded at 50/50, with prices updating dynamically as positions are taken.


2. Add/Customise Leverage

  • Select margin (the collateral you want to risk).

  • Choose leverage (up to 3× at launch).

  • See your notional exposure instantly calculated.

Example:

  • $200 margin at 5× leverage = $1,000 notional exposure.


3. Open a Position

  • Pick your side (Outcome A or Outcome B).

  • The system shows:

    • Current odds (e.g., 54% vs 46%).

    • How much your trade will shift the odds.

    • Estimated liquidation threshold.

  • Confirm the trade → your position is live.


4. Monitor & Manage

  • Dashboard view shows your:

    • Current P&L (profit/loss).

    • Liquidation price.

    • Current odds.

  • You can close your position early to lock in gains or cut losses.

  • Or scale up by adding more margin/leverage.


5. Resolution on Prediction markets (Not on Perpetual markets)

  • When the event outcome is decided:

    • Winning side resolves to 1.0, losing side to 0.0.

    • All positions are closed automatically.

    • Winners redeem their shares; losers are nullified.

  • If liquidations + losing margin are insufficient, the Insurance Fund fills the gap.
