The market can have three different states: OPEN, SUSPENDED, and CLOSED. These states indicate the availability and status of the market for betting purposes.
The OPEN state indicates that the market is currently open for betting. You can place your bets and engage in trading activities within the market.
When a market is in the SUSPENDED state, it means that the market is temporarily unavailable for betting. This can happen due to various reasons, such as a significant event occurring within the market or a change in market conditions. During this time, you are unable to place new bets or modify existing ones.
The CLOSED state signifies that the market has settled and is no longer available for betting. This typically happens after the conclusion of the event or when the market has been resolved. You can no longer place or modify bets in a closed market.
The state of the market is displayed at the top of the trading window, allowing to easily identify the current status of the market
