Typical horizon: INTRADAY • Season 1 — all time

What it does

Compares each hourly bracket's implied probability (its price) against the measured historical move distribution, and trades BOTH ways: buys the range when volatility is overpriced, sells it (buys NO) when the range itself is rich.

Caveats: All results shown are simulated (paper) trading performance, not actual trading, unless explicitly labeled live. Fees and slippage are modeled (Kalshi's taker fee formula plus 1¢ slippage), which cannot fully reflect real market impact or liquidity constraints. Past performance, simulated or actual, is not indicative of future results. Parameters shown are the current configuration and change over time as the strategy is tuned.
