Trading Terminal
Charts, order book, trade history, and Lite vs Pro modes
Overview
The trading terminal is the core of Vezta. When you open a market, you get a full-screen, non-scrolling terminal layout with charts, order book, trading panel, and activity feed -- all visible at once. It is designed for fast decision-making with every piece of information you need on a single screen.
Terminal Layout
The market detail page is divided into four main panels:
Chart Area (left, dominant)
The chart occupies the largest portion of the screen and supports multiple visualization modes:
- Probability line chart -- shows the implied probability (0-100%) over time. This is the default view.
- Candlestick (OHLC) -- traditional open/high/low/close candles for traders who prefer this format.
- Depth chart -- stacked bid/ask visualization showing order book depth at each price level.
- Area chart -- filled area version of the probability line.
Timeframe options include 6H, 1D, 1W, 1M, and ALL. Volume bars are overlaid at the bottom of the chart. Basic drawing tools (crosshair, horizontal line, trend line) are available for technical analysis.
Order Book Panel
A two-sided depth visualization showing YES bids (green) and NO asks (red). The mid-price is prominently displayed at the center. This shows you the available liquidity at each price level and helps you gauge potential price impact before trading.
Trading Panel (right sidebar)
The order entry form where you execute trades. Includes:
- Buy / Sell toggle
- YES / NO outcome selector
- Order type tabs (Market or Limit)
- Amount input with quick-fill presets ($10, $25, $50, $100, $500)
- Order summary showing shares, avg price, potential payout, estimated fee
- Execute button to confirm the trade
The panel also displays your current position on this market (if any) with unrealized PnL and a quick close button.

Lite vs Pro Mode
Vezta offers two interface tiers that you can toggle at any time:
Lite Mode
A simplified interface designed for casual users. Streamlined order entry, basic chart, and less information density. Ideal for users who are new to prediction markets or prefer a cleaner layout.
Pro Mode
The full terminal experience with advanced order types, wallet tracking integration, sniper orders, copy trade controls, order book depth, and all analytical tabs. Built for power users who want maximum information and control.
Features exclusive to Pro mode include: Fill-and-Kill / Fill-or-Kill / Post Only / GTC order types, Take Profit and Stop Loss automation, sniper order creation from the trading panel, advanced trade settings (slippage tolerance, priority fee, MEV protection), and custom RPC endpoint support.
Market Header
The top bar of every market page shows key information at a glance:
- Market title and source badge (Polymarket or Kalshi)
- Category badge
- Current price with 24h change
- 24h volume and liquidity
- Time remaining until resolution
- Watchlist star and share button
Markets with thin order books display a "Low Liquidity" warning banner so you are aware of potential price impact before trading.
Real-Time Updates
All data on the terminal is streamed in real time via WebSocket connections. Prices, order book depth, trade activity, and your position value update continuously without requiring a page refresh. Price changes flash green (up) or red (down) for quick visual feedback.
