Resolved
YES

I am not a clever person.

Rather than learning by reading, I attempt to learn by trial and error.

This has very little to do with different intelligence types, or some people learning more effectively in someways than others, it is simply because I am very stupid, I do not quickly from practical experience, in fact, sometimes I do not learn at all.

I’m going to try placing limit orders on this market to understand how such things could be profitable for the person placing the limit order.

If, after up to ten people place bets on this market, I kind of feel like I understand the point of limit orders, market will resolve to yes.

If, after 10 people play bets on this market, or one month passes, and I still don’t really get how placing a limit order would be beneficial to the person placing them, market will resolve to no.
