Understanding Your Results

Trading on GE-AS is a competitive activity. Not every sell will be approved, and that is normal. Understanding how results work will help you trade smarter.

How Trades Are Tracked

Every bid and sell you make is recorded in your trade history:

• Bid successful: you receive the product.
• Sell approved: you receive payment at the fill price, credited to the wallet you used for the original bid.
• Sell not approved: you keep the product. Try again.

Your trade history is accessible from your dashboard.

Why Not Every Sell Is Approved

The system processes sells competitively. In each cycle, only a portion of sellers are approved. This keeps the market sustainable and fair for everyone. It is not personal. Every trader goes through the same process.

If your sell is not approved, it does not mean anything is wrong with your account. It simply means this particular sell was not selected in this processing cycle. Adjust your parameters and try again.

What Determines the Fill Price

When your sell is approved, the fill price is determined by current market conditions and slot queue position. Sell orders are processed on a first come, first served basis. Orders placed earlier get evaluated first. This means timing matters: the sooner you place your sell order, the better your position in the queue.

The fill price will always fall within the range you set with your Recess and Excess parameters:

• If the market price is near your asking price, you get close to what you wanted.
• If the market price is below your asking price but within your Recess range, you still get the sell done at a lower price.
• If the market price is above your asking price but within your Excess range, you receive more than expected.

The fill price is shown in your sell history after processing.

Where Proceeds Go

Proceeds from a successful sell go back to the wallet you used to place the original bid:

• Bid with main wallet: proceeds go to your main wallet.
• Bid with ICTP wallet: proceeds go to your ICTP balance, helping it grow toward the withdrawal threshold.

This happens automatically. You do not need to choose.

Improving Your Results

There is no shortcut to guarantee every sell. But these approaches can help:

• Set reasonable margins. A moderate profit margin is more likely to result in approval than the maximum possible.
• Be flexible with Recess. Widening your Recess gives the system more room to find a price that works.
• Use the buyback margin. If your sells keep failing, price within the 0.05% to 0.2% buyback zone for a guaranteed sale at a small profit. See The AI Buyback Margin for details.
• Trade consistently. Regular trading activity works in your favour over time.
• Diversify. Bid on products from different markets and categories rather than concentrating on one.
• Adjust and learn. If your sells are not going through, try different margin and Recess combinations. What works may vary by product and market.

Reading Your Trade History

Your trade history shows:

• Product name and value
• What you paid (bid amount)
• What you received (fill price, if approved)
• Profit or loss on the trade
• Date the order was processed

Use this to track your performance and refine your strategy.
