When you open a market on Bayse, you’ll see the Order Book, which shows all active buy and sell orders from other traders.
If the order book is hidden, tap the drop-down arrow to expand it.
Understanding the Order Book Columns
The order book has three columns:
Price – the price traders are willing to buy or sell at
Shares – number of shares available at that price
Amount – total cost or payout for those shares
Buy Orders (Bids)
Shown in green
Represent offers to buy at a specific price or lower
If no sell order matches your price, your bid stays visible in the order book until expiration
Sell Orders (Asks)
Shown in red
Represent offers to sell at a specific price or higher
If no buy order matches your price, your ask stays visible in the order book until expiration
Order Book Sorting
Bids are sorted from highest to lowest price
Asks are sorted from lowest to highest price
Best Prices
Best Bid → highest buy price
Best Ask → lowest sell price
Spread → difference between best bid and best ask
