# Get pool state

> Whether this named-outcome AMM has pool shares.

A **pool** handle is one named outcome on the market AMM. Invalid is not tradable. Display mids live on [`market.prices()`](/market/prices), not here. Size a trade with [`quoteTrade`](/outcome/quote-trade).

```ts theme={null}
const pool = client.pool(outcomeToken, { market: marketAddress, outcomeIndex: 0 })
```

`pool` requires `{ market, outcomeIndex }`. That is how the SDK finds the market's OutcomeAmm.

Prefer `quoteTrade.spotPrice` / `priceAboveNinetyNineCents` for trade gates. `state` tells you whether the AMM has pool shares (`totalSupply > 0`).

| Field       | Live meaning                                          |
| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| `status`    | `"open"` if `totalSupply > 0`, else `"uninitialized"` |
| `liquidity` | AMM `totalSupply` (ERC-20 pool shares)                |
| `poolId`    | OutcomeAmm address                                    |

```ts theme={null}
const { status, liquidity, poolId } = await pool.state()
```

```ts theme={null}
Promise<{
  status: "uninitialized" | "open"
  liquidity: bigint
  poolId: Hex
}>
```

```ts theme={null}
type PoolStatus = "uninitialized" | "open"

type PoolState = {
  status: PoolStatus
  liquidity: bigint
  poolId: Hex
}
```
