A Polymarket terminal is an interface for discovering markets, understanding available prices, and preparing supported activity through Polymarket infrastructure. It is not automatically the same thing as Polymarket itself.

Choose a terminal for clarity and safety, not only for a busy-looking chart.

What a terminal is

The underlying venue provides market rules and trading infrastructure. A terminal can organise the information around that venue: markets, outcomes, order books, public activity, and wallet actions.

HBFmarket is a non-custodial terminal and analytics layer. It helps you read the market before you decide whether to act. It does not custody assets, operate an exchange, or resolve outcomes.

Start with market context

A useful terminal makes the important context easy to find:

• the complete market question;
• outcome choices and current prices;
• resolution rules and timing;
• volume, liquidity, and recent activity; and
• links to related markets or relevant categories.

If you cannot explain what needs to happen for an outcome to win, do not treat the price as meaningful yet. Start with what prediction markets are.

Check order-book clarity

The order book matters because it shows actual interest to buy and sell. A terminal should make the best bid, best ask, spread, and available size understandable.

This helps you see whether a displayed price is likely to be available for your order. Read prediction-market liquidity before relying on a last-traded price.

Understand the trade path

Before signing, know what happens next. A clear terminal should identify the market, selected outcome, order type, amount, price, and the connected venue.

Check whether your order seeks an immediate fill or rests at a price you choose. Immediate orders can fill at multiple levels; resting orders can remain open or fill only partly.

Safety and eligibility

Use a wallet you control and never share its recovery phrase or private key. Confirm that you are using an official service and that you meet current venue and jurisdiction requirements.

No terminal should be used to bypass restrictions. If a wallet prompt, order, or destination is unclear, stop and verify it before signing.

Evaluation checklist

1. Does it show the full market question and resolution context?
2. Can you inspect price, spread, and order-book depth?
3. Does it clearly label order type, outcome, amount, and price?
4. Does it preserve non-custodial wallet control?
5. Does it link to support, terms, and venue rules?
6. Does it help you understand risks instead of hiding them?
