# How Are Markets Created

Every market on **PRED** represents a **sports outcome** that can be traded.

Our goal is to build deep, liquid, high-velocity markets for major sporting events where traders can express real opinions, manage exposure, and profit from their edge.

***

**PRED does not allow users to create or list their own markets**. Instead, all markets are **curated and verified** for clear objective resolution to ensure quality, clarity, and liquidity.

PRED focuses on **high-demand sporting events** like leagues, tournaments, and matches where natural trading activity already exists. (Moneyline, Spreads, Totals, BTTS)\
\
We source and select markets through **leading sports analytics providers and data partners**, ensuring:

* Clear and objective outcomes
* Reliable data feeds and resolution criteria
* Potential for **deep liquidity** and **tight spreads**

This curation model allows **market makers** to operate efficiently and ensures traders experience **true exchange-grade markets** & not fragmented or illiquid pools.
