💵Selling your position

After you start trading, you begin to accumulate positions in different markets. A position is the number of contracts you own in a particular market and represents your current investment.

There are two options for closing your positions: hold them until settlement, or sell them early to lock in profits.

Collecting at settlement

The simplest way to cash out your investment in a Kalshi market is to hold your contracts until the market closes. When the market is settled, you’ll automatically earn $1 for every correct contract you own.

Closing out early

In some cases, you might want to sell your contracts before the outcome of the event is known to lock in profit or minimize losses. You can do that by placing a sell order to reduce your position.
