How to make predictions for the upcoming round

Price predictions operate in 5 minute rounds. Apes must make their prediction before a round goes live to participate.

Check the timer apes!

To enter a round of Lucky Ape, apes must determine how much time is left in the current round. Apes can find the timer in the upper right-hand corner of the page!

Keep in mind, if the timer is too low your prediction may not confirm before the next round! Please make sure you still have ample time left before the next round to make your prediction, ideally 30 seconds to one minute .

Making a prediction for the next round.

After confirming you have enough time to enter the next round, you can place your prediction in the following ways:

In the "Next" section you'll see a green Enter UP button and a red Enter DOWN button. Click Enter UP if you believe price will rise in in the next 5min round, or click Enter DOWN if you believe price will drop in the next 5min round.
Each choice will display a different reward multiplier. The multiplier will change dynamically as the "Prize Pool" increases depending on other apes predictions. The Prize Pool is shown just above the buttons.

Upon making your choice, a new window will open. In the window, you'll see "Commit" to commit the amount of $GG you desire for your prediction. Type the amount of $GG you would like to commit to your prediction for this round in the field. You can also use the slider or click the percent buttons if you prefer.

After you have decided the amount of $GG you'd like to commit, click Confirm and confirm your action in your wallet.

The confirm button will fade as your transaction confirms - hopefully you gave yourself enough time for that to happen before the next round begins!

After your transaction confirms, an "ENTERED" message will appear.

All you have to do now is wait for the next Lucky Ape round to go live!

What happens when your entered round is live?

As mentioned, the live round will last for 5 minutes - in which you can watch the price of $BNB continually update.

Keep in mind you can't change your prediction during a live round - you are are locked in fellow ape, may luck be on your side.

What happens once your entered round finishes?

Once the 5 minute live round has finished, the "LIVE" section will change to "Calculating". Don't worry ape, calculating only takes a moment.

On the history panel, click the PNL tab.
The tab will open with stats for your historic performance in Lucky Ape, including your net results, average winnings, best round, and other information.
