Ladder
Watch several order books side by side on one page and jump from any price into the trade panel.
The Ladder shows the order books of several markets next to each other. Each book is laid out as a price ladder from 1¢ to 99¢, so you can compare depth across markets at a glance.
Open it from the Ladder tab in the header. On a phone, open Tools in the bottom bar and choose Ladder. You do not need to be signed in to view it.
Add a market
Section titled “Add a market”- Press Add Market.
- The list starts with live up/down markets. Type in the search box to find any other market.
- Press Add next to the market you want.
A market that is already on the tab shows Added and cannot be added twice. Each tab holds up to 8 markets.
Read a column
Section titled “Read a column”Each column is one market’s order book.
- The header shows the market title, its venue and, for fast markets, its time frame such as 5m or 15m. A small dot is green and pulsing when the book is updating live, and grey when it is refreshing by polling.
- YES and NO switch the column between the two outcomes.
- spr shows the spread, the gap between the best bid and the best ask.
- The rows are prices in cents. Bid quantities sit on the left and Ask quantities on the right, with a bar behind each number showing relative depth. The best bid and best ask rows are highlighted.
- A column with no book shows No live book for this market.
Press the X in a column header to remove that market.

Section titled “Trade from the Ladder”Click any price row. The market opens on its event page with the trade panel ready on the side you had selected in the column. Orders are placed there, not on the Ladder itself. See Placing orders.

- Press + to add a tab. You can have up to 6.
- Press the pencil icon on a tab to rename it. Names can be up to 32 characters.
