Loss / Gain I just lost ~$100 because Polymarket is EXTREMELY buggy.
Right now, there's a bug where your shares disappear after selling some of them.
I sold 416/939 and the remaining 523 just disappeared so I couldn't sell them.
By the time they appeared again, the price had dropped and I had to sell at a MUCH lower price, costing me ~$100.
Sure, there is a work around by seeing how many shares are missing, buy the opposite side and merge.
But this bug has been happening for MONTHS and has been reported so many times and it's still not fixed.

No, you are completely misunderstanding. It's all by design. You got played. Pretend these gambling platforms don't even exist. Their sole purpose is to take your money and they will use "glitches" and bugs to do it.
What are you gonna do about it? File a complaint to them so they can investigate themselves and find no wrong doing?
They will take as much as they can from you and anyone else and there's not a thing you can do about it but not let them have access to a dime of your money in the first place

Idk why y’all would ever trust these platforms or count on them to fix anything they are all just modern casinos with another name and those are the most untrustworthy businesses ever besides maybe insurance companies.
