P&L in the ladder

The P&L column shows what closing at each price would lock in after fees. It is also an action: click a value to close at that price. Once a ladder has a position, fill or working order, its validated P&L remains visible while the app refreshes and reconciles venue data. Tickside does not replace an unknown value with zero.

IF WINS and IF LOSES

The ladder header shows the result for the complete market group. In Match Odds, that means the combined result across Home, Draw and Away. The P&L column inside each ladder still shows the close result for that individual outcome. If every position in a group is closed, the same realized total appears for all possible winners because the final outcome can no longer change that result. An exact zero is shown as $0.00. An unknown result is not shown as zero.

Net and gross

Tickside reports net P&L. Venue fees are included in the entry cost and exit proceeds. A venue page may show gross P&L before fees, so its figure can be higher after taker trades. When the venue supplies the fee charged on a fill, Tickside uses that value. A calculated estimate is used only until the confirmed value arrives.

Fast fills and hedges

Positions are rebuilt from confirmed fills and reconciled venue state. A hedge uses the full economic position but never sells more shares than the venue has made available. This protects rapid sequences of fills, partial fills and repeated close clicks. A fill already named and confirmed by a venue remains in the position and P&L while venue history catches up. It retires as soon as matching history or position evidence arrives, so a slow response does not make real money disappear temporarily.
Hyperliquid P&L is built from its own spot positions and fills. Polymarket P&L is built from its own positions, orders and fills. Tickside never uses one venue’s cash or position to complete another venue’s result.
