Getting started with Turbo markets

Turbo markets are iPredikt's fastest way to test a hunch. Instead of waiting days or weeks for an event to resolve, a Turbo market opens, takes predictions, and settles in minutes — so you get the thrill of being right (or the lesson of being wrong) almost immediately.

What is a Turbo market?

A Turbo market is a short-fuse yes/no question — think "Will BTC be above this level in 5 minutes?" It behaves exactly like a normal market: you pick Yes or No, choose a stake, and the price reflects what everyone else believes. The only difference is speed. Everything is compressed into a tight window, which makes Turbo the perfect place to learn how odds move under pressure.

How to place your first Turbo prediction

• Open the Turbo hub from the main navigation.
• Pick an open market. The big percentages are the live implied probability for Yes and No.
• Tap a side, type or drag your stake, and confirm. Your position appears instantly.
• Watch the countdown. When it hits zero, the market settles and credits land in your wallet.

How Turbo markets settle

Every market on iPredikt — Turbo included — is resolved by our Proof-Gated AI Settlement system. The AI must cite external evidence for its ruling, and a second, independent model verifies that ruling before a single credit moves. That means fast settlement without sacrificing trust: you can open the settlement summary to see the proof behind every outcome.

Tips to get sharp fast

• Read the chart, not just the number. The price chart shows momentum; a jumpy number often just means thin volume.
• Mind the spread. In very short windows, small edges matter — don't overpay for a coin-flip.
• Track your calibration. Your Forecast IQ grades how well your confidence matches reality, and Turbo generates a lot of data points quickly.
• Bookmark the action. Add markets you like to your Watchlist so you can jump straight back in.
