Momentum trading on prediction markets involves buying contracts whose prices are trending upward and selling those trending downward. This strategy works because prediction market prices often underreact to new information, creating trends that persist. Look for markets with increasing volume alongside price movement — this confirms genuine momentum rather than noise.
The biggest risk is reversal: when momentum fades, prices can snap back quickly. Set clear exit points before entering a trade. Momentum works best on high-liquidity markets where spreads are tight enough to capture the move without excessive slippage.
