Sideline
Settling and closing
| Exit | You collect | When |
|---|---|---|
| Your side wins | stake * odds | Hold: both rails keep to the end. Breach: a rail is touched first. |
| Close early | mark-to-market * (1 - 4%) | You cash out before it resolves, for a known amount. |
| Your side loses | 0 | The corridor resolves the other way. |
How it settles
If the price touches a rail before the end, breach wins and hold is out, from the same signed proof that closes the corridor. If the run reaches its end untouched, hold wins.
The author's cut
Whoever drew the corridor earns a cut of every winning ticket inside it: 20% of that ticket's profit fee. Draw something other people want to trade and it pays you past your own ride. Cuts credit to your balance as each ticket settles and show up in your dashboard as part of your net score.
