# Prediction Markets

Find a prediction market, read it and place a trade.

## Overview

The **Prediction Markets** terminal allows you to trade on the outcome of real-world events directly from the Click platform.

From politics and sports to cryptocurrency and global news, Prediction Markets let you take positions on future outcomes using the same fast trading experience and account that powers the rest of Click.

Markets on the **Featured** widget show their **Origin** (for example, Polymarket), so you can see where the market is sourced before placing a trade.

Whether you're reacting to breaking news or making longer-term predictions, everything you need is available from a single trading interface.

Available markets may include:

* Politics

Each prediction market provides the information needed to make informed decisions before placing a trade.

Depending on the market, this may include:
