# Sorting

While filters help you narrow down the list, sorting allows you to prioritize markets based on real-time data. It is the fastest way to rank events in ascending or descending order based on your trading needs.

* **24h Volume:** Sort to find the most hyped markets with the most trading in the last 24 hours.
* **Total Volume:** See which markets have the most trading activity overall.
* **Liquidity:** Find markets with the most available cash to ensure you can buy and sell easily.
