Overdog supports three types of conditional orders. Once placed, orders are monitored and executed automatically — you don’t need to stay in the chat.
Orders run in the background. Overdog checks prices continuously and triggers your order as soon as the market reaches your target price.

​
Limit buy

A limit buy places a resting order on the exchange at your specified price. Your order fills when the market price reaches your target.
1

Open a market card

Find a market via /markets, /sports, search, or a pasted Polymarket URL.
2

Tap Limit

On the market card, tap the Limit button for the outcome you want to buy.
3

Enter your target price

Type your price in cents. Examples:
  • 15 → $0.15 per share
  • 15.8 → $0.158 per share
  • 0.15 → $0.15 per share
  • 15.8c → $0.158 per share
Quick-pick buttons show the current best bid and an option just below the best ask. Tap one to skip typing.
4

Choose an amount

Select a preset dollar amount or tap Custom $ to enter your own. The confirmation screen shows your estimated share count at that price plus the 1% fee (charged on fill, not placement).
5

Confirm

Tap Confirm to place the order. It stays open on the exchange until it fills or you cancel it.

​
Take-profit

A take-profit automatically sells shares from an open position when the price rises to your target.
1

Open your position

Send /positions and tap the position you want to protect.
2

Tap Take-Profit

Tap the Take-Profit button on the position detail screen.
3

Enter your target sell price

Type a price in cents above the current price. The same input formats apply (15, 0.15, 15.8c).
4

Choose shares to sell

Pick from 25%, 50%, or 100% of your position, or enter a custom share count.
5

Confirm

Review the expected proceeds and fee, then tap Confirm.
If you also have a stop-loss on the same position, the two orders are linked as an OCO (one-cancels-other) pair — when one fills, the other is cancelled automatically.

​
Stop-loss

A stop-loss automatically sells shares if the price falls to your trigger level, limiting your downside.
1

Open your position

Send /positions and tap the position you want to protect.
2

Tap Stop-Loss

Tap the Stop-Loss button on the position detail screen.
3
