implied chance of YES

Recorded price path

This is a live Kalshi event contract. The price, 38 cents, is the market’s implied probability of YES. Whether that number is well-calibrated is its own question: our Truth Machine measures how often markets at each price level actually settle YES. Confirm live prices on Kalshi before trading.

AFTER THE 2¢ FEE

Contracts like this one have settled YES 51.1% of the time, and the crowd is charging 45c. Based on 188 settled other markets in the 40-49c band, priced about a day before their events. After the 2c taker fee, that leaves about 4c of edge per contract, if this market behaves like the ones we measured.

This is what this kind of contract has been worth, not a forecast for this one: a band average does not know what is happening in the news. See the Fair Value Board for every market scored this way, or the other curve it came from.

What history says about this price

Across our settled record, markets priced near 30–39¢ have gone on to settle YES 33% of the time (n=1,678). The price implies 38%, so historically this band has come in about 5 points lower than the sticker. That is history, not a forecast for this specific market. See the Truth Machine for the full curve.
