Trade Polymarket markets with leverage

SHORT ANSWER

Polymarket has no built-in leverage: you buy outcome shares outright. Probio streams the same markets and live order books from Polymarket and lets you trade them with 1× to 10× leverage, stop-loss and take-profit orders and multi-leg parlays, from one USD balance funded on Robinhood Chain or Solana. Probio is an independent platform and is not affiliated with Polymarket.

How Probio uses Polymarket prices

Every market question, price and order book on Probio comes from Polymarket’s public data. When you place an order, Probio walks the live order book for the full size of your position to price the fill, then books the position against your Probio balance. Orders are not sent to Polymarket: Probio is the counterparty. When Polymarket resolves a market, open positions settle at the final outcome.

Example: the same view, with and without leverage

A market trades at 50¢ and you expect it to reach 60¢. Buying $100 of shares outright makes $20 if it gets there. On Probio, $100 at 5× controls $500 and makes $100 on the same move, before fees of $2.50. If the market instead falls to 40¢, the leveraged position is liquidated and the $100 margin is lost.

Risks to understand

  • Leverage magnifies losses, and prices can gap past liquidation levels on breaking news.
  • Probio is your counterparty and holds your balance; balances are not insured.
  • Settlement depends on Polymarket’s resolution, which can be delayed or disputed.
  • Positions are limited to $5,000 notional and $5,000 per event.
