# How to Count Your Tickets
There are 3 types of positions that will be counted in the Lottery, with 3 different formulas each.
* Longest Position
* Other Positions
* Liquidated Positions
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Longest Position" %}
The longest position is any position that was opened at any time during the lottery duration.
**ℹ️ Note:** The longest position can be a closed position. However, it cannot be liquidated for it to be counted as the longest position. Your ticket count might change depending if:
* Your position has been liquidated or;
* You have only one position during the lottery duration and that position has been liquidated. In that case, your tickets will be calculated under the [Liquidated Position formula](#liquidiated-position).
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Other Positions" %}
These positions are positions that have been opened during the lottery period and are not the longest position. These positions can be closed positions, but not liquidated positions.
**ℹ️ Note:** Other positions can be closed positions. However, it cannot be liquidated for it to be counted in this formula. Your ticket count might change depending if:
* Your position has been liquidated or;
* You have only one position during the lottery duration and that position has been liquidated. In that case, your tickets will be calculated under the [Liquidated Position formula](#liquidiated-position).
