An action is a node from the Market tab. It tells the strategy what to do after a condition continues. Use the Market tab for ordinary markets, recurring markets, Wallet, and Utility. Click a card to add it, or drag it onto the canvas to choose its position.

Compare actions

Buy a market outcome

Market cards create a Buy Market action. Select a named outcome when the card has more than one, then choose YES or NO. Click or drag the card to add that choice to the canvas. Review the action node before you run:
  • The market question and named outcome.
  • The selected YES or NO side.
  • The displayed price.
  • The allocation.

Use a recurring market outcome

Recurring is a market filter, not a separate action type. It creates the same market-outcome action, but tracks a recurring market family. Choose a time family such as 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, or daily, then choose the current market and side. Verify the active window before you run. See Recurring markets for details.

Wallet

Choose Wallet in the Market tab to add a Wallet action. A Wallet action directs its allocated funds to the selected wallet destination. Sign in and a Wallet action are different:
  • Sign in sets up your account, which is required before you can use Run Live.
  • A Wallet action is a node in the strategy itself.
Signing in and adding funds does not start a live run. See Simulation and Live Runs for the sign-in and funding flow.

Hold

Choose Utility in the Market tab to add Hold. Hold keeps the current position open and lets the strategy continue to child conditions. Use Hold only when you understand the position that the strategy will keep. A Hold node may follow a market action and continue the strategy to another condition. Hold can mean two different things:
  • After a market action, it keeps that market position open.
  • In a wallet path, it leaves the allocation in the wallet.

Allocation

Allocation is the percentage of the available amount assigned to an action. A single action receives 100% by default. If a condition has multiple actions, their allocations must total 100%. The builder balances new actions evenly unless you set an allocation explicitly. Example: a 70% market action and a 30% Wallet action split the available amount between those two actions.

Build a valid flow

  • Start with one root condition or one root market action.
  • Place market actions after the condition they depend on.
  • Add a condition below a market action when the strategy should continue after that action.
  • Use the canvas placement guides when dragging to avoid adding a node in the wrong place.

Simulation vs live

Actions in Simulate are simulated. Run Live is available and can use real funds when conditions trigger. Execution and fills are not guaranteed. Always review the action, side, and allocation in a simulation before using Run Live. See Strategy builder nodes for the complete node reference and Strategy examples for a Wallet split and Hold pattern.
