How to Read Last Price on Polymarket (US 2026)

Official Browse Markets: each tile shows the market question, the current Yes and No prices, and a resolution date. Official Place a Trade: tap any market to open it. That opened ticket is where you look for the last matched print if the live screen shows one. Official Browse Markets does not list Last price on the tile. We will not invent a home-screen Last chip those pages do not print. If the sports desk is hidden where you live, stop.

Official Place a Trade, Official Browse Markets, Official Prices & Market Data, and Official Glossary do not reprint a retail column or tab labelled Last, Last price, Last trade, or Last print on the swipe we checked. We will not invent one. The action is: on that opened ticket, look at the most recent matched price that sits with the market if the live app prints it. If the live control is labelled Last, Last trade, Last price, or something else — or is missing — use the live screen, then still read the BBO. Official Website vs App: US residents do that in the Polymarket US app.

Official Markets BBO API names lastTradePx as the last trade price, plus currentPx, bestAsk, and bestBid. Official market-book stats name lastTradePx and lastTradeQty as the price and quantity of the most recent trade. Official Valuation API names LAST as last traded price on those valuation endpoints. Those are published field names. Official Place a Trade does not reprint them as a Last chip. We will not paste an API field onto the US swipe as if the retail page printed that menu.

Hard rule: if official US help names the field, we name it. Official market-book stats name lastTradePx. Official Time & Sales names Last Price and Last Quantity on the exchange tape — that is a report, not a confirmed phone header. Official Browse Markets names current Yes and No prices, not Last. If the live US card already prints Last, Last price, Last trade, or Last print, follow that live label. If no such word is there, the action is still: find the most recent match on the opened ticket, then check whether the BBO still sits there.

Official market-book stats: lastTradePx is the most recent trade. Official How are Polymarket odds determined?: prices update whenever a buy or sell is matched. A last-price stamp is that print. It already happened. It is not a hold, not a sportsbook lock, and not a promise the next swipe pays the same cents. We do not reprint a live last.

Official Browse Markets shows current Yes and No prices on the card. Official Prices & Market Data: a market order fills at the best available price on the other side right now — the BBO. Official Spreads: you buy at the ask. Official Glossary: the BBO is the tightest pair at the top of the book. A last print can sit one number; the best ask can sit another. How to read Yes/No prices is the cents-as-chance read. This page is only the last match.

How to read volume is how much has already traded — the tape amount. How to read liquidity is how much size is sitting on the book now. Official Glossary: size is contracts available at a price; liquidity is how much of that size is there to trade. A last print can be 40¢ after a busy tape or after a thin tape. Neither stamp is the last match, and the last match is neither stamp. We link those walks instead of cloning them.

Official Liquidity: posted size is what can trade at a level before the next price is touched; treat the displayed price as dynamic, especially in live sports. Official Price Impact: if a clip is larger than the size sitting at the best price — or if that clip has already been lifted — the rest walks. Official Glossary: slippage is the gap between the price you expected and the price you received. The last print is what someone else already paid. It is not the size still waiting for you.

Official Prices & Market Data: a tight spread means the market is liquid; a wide spread means fewer people are trading. Official Liquidity: size can vanish late in a quarter, in overtime, after a score or injury, or when the result looks decided. A last print from a minute ago can sit next to an empty best ask. A one-contract swipe still pays the ask that is there now, not the print that already left. How to set an order size is typing that clip. This page does not clone it.

Official Market Settlement and Official Prices & Market Data: a winning contract settles at $1.00 and a losing contract at $0.00. Official Price Slippage: markets stay open until the outcome is confirmed, even if the result looks certain; liquidity can thin on the side already priced as likely. Official How are Polymarket odds determined?: Polymarket US does not set prices. A last print at 90¢ is not a locked $1, and a last print at 10¢ is not a locked zero. Nothing here is investment advice.

How to set a limit price is the cents you will pay or sell at on a new order. Official Glossary: a limit that does not cross rests; a marketable limit fills at the best available price shown. The last print is someone else’s completed match. Typing that same number does not make it your fill if the book has moved. Leave the typing walk on its own URL.

How to read a share is one Yes/No unit that pays $1 or $0. How to set an order size is how many of those units one new order asks for. How to read open orders is the resting list you already have working. Official Glossary: an open order is waiting on the book to be filled. None of those pages is the last public print on the card. We link them instead of reprinting the click path.

How to read price history is the chart and the last-trade series on the ticket. How to read trade history is your past fills. Official Time & Sales is the exchange tape (Last Price, Last Quantity) — a report, not a phone tab we invent. This page stops at the single last-price figure on the card. If you wanted the whole tape or your own History row, those are later walks.
