### FAQ

<details>

<summary><strong>What is a Market Buy order?</strong></summary>

A Market Buy order purchases shares at the current market price.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why can’t I see my position after placing the order?</strong></summary>

The order may still be processing.

If you do not see it in **My Positions**, tap **Open Orders**. Unfilled orders will be shown there.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why did my final price change slightly?</strong></summary>

Market orders are executed at the live market price, so the final filled price may differ slightly from the displayed price when you placed the order.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why can a market order fail?</strong></summary>

Market orders can fail when the event has low liquidity, high slippage, or fast price changes on Polymarket.

If your **buy** market order fails multiple times, try these:

* Use a **Limit** order instead.
* Increase your order price based on market conditions.
* Try again later when liquidity is better.

For sell orders, ELLIPAL currently only supports **full market sell**. If the sell order fails multiple times, please try again later or use **Polymarket** directly.
