In a nutshell
Pick is your position in an Event on the Zanlo platform.
Share is a unit of an outcome. One Pick can contain multiple shares. For example, "Make a Pick for 10 Yes" means buying 10 Yes shares.
You choose one of the Event’s two outcomes — Yes or No, or one of two named outcomes — and make a Pick at a specified price or at market offering. After purchase, you can hold your shares until the Event concludes or sell them earlier.
What Is a Pick
A Pick is a digital position that reflects your opinion on the outcome of a specific Event.
Each Event on the platform has exactly two possible outcomes — Yes and No, or two named outcomes. In the system, you buy shares of the outcome you choose — for example, 1 Yes share, 1 No share, or 1 McGregor share. By making a Pick, you choose an outcome and lock in your position at a price formed by market participants.
A Pick is not a bet, does not guarantee a result, and does not provide fixed income. Its final value depends on the Event outcome and other participants' actions.
How to Make a Pick
To make a Pick:
-
Open the Event that interests you.
-
Choose one of the Event’s two outcomes — Yes or No, or one of two named outcomes.
-
Specify the quantity (qty of shares) of the chosen outcome you want to buy.
-
Confirm the action.
After confirmation, the Pick will either be purchased immediately or placed as an order awaiting execution — depending on the selected order type.
For more details on order types, see Order Types.
How to Sell (Exit) Your Shares
You can sell your shares before the Event receives Resolved status.
Selling shares is called Sell.
When selling, you put your shares up for sale, and they will be sold when suitable demand appears in the market. The sale price depends on current market conditions.
For more details on selling mechanics, see Sell.
What Happens After Purchase
After purchase:
• Your shares are displayed in the Portfolio section.
• Until the Event concludes, you can:
-
hold the shares,
-
sell them completely or partially,
-
manage the position using additional tools.
• When the Event concludes and receives Resolved status, the system automatically calculates the outcome for all your shares.
What Happens If Your Shares Are Not Sold Before the Event Concludes
If you place your shares for sale but no buyer appears before the Event receives Resolved status:
• The sell order will be automatically canceled and receive the Canceled status.
• You will continue to own your shares.
• The system will then calculate the result according to standard settlement rules.
Outcome calculation:
• If the Event outcome matches your position, you will receive profit.
• If the outcome is unfavorable, the funds used to purchase the shares will not be returned.
Important to Remember
• Share price can change at any moment.• Purchasing shares does not guarantee profit.
• The outcome depends on the actual Event result and market conditions.
• Zanlo does not influence prices and does not interfere in trading — they are formed by participants.
