Trading status
An outcome can have one of five trading statuses that indicate whether bets can be made, are no longer allowed, should be paid out or betting has been paused. Each market can have outcomes that have different trading statuses. Imagine an exact score market in a match with a score of 2:0. All outcomes for scores that are not possible anymore (like 0:0, 0:1, 1:1, 1:2,...) should not be bettable on while score outcomes that are still possible (2:0, 2:1:, 3:0,...) can be bet on.
