BTC Late Conviction

Starter is $19/month with 10 deploys per week. Upgrade as you grow.

This strategy trades Kalshi's BTC 15-minute markets and checks conditions every 10 seconds. It buys 40 YES contracts when 60 to 180 seconds remain, the spread is at most 0.02, Bitcoin rose at least 0.08% over 5 minutes and 0.15% over 15 minutes, and the YES ask is between 0.80 and 0.95; it buys 40 NO contracts on the mirrored conditions with the NO ask in that range. Once time to expiry reaches zero it cancels all resting orders, and it allows only one entry per market, with a 200-contract position limit and YES prices from 0.05 to 0.64.

A few notes on these numbers

Methodology: Backtests replay supported historical market data, usually a 30-day Studio window, and evaluate strategy rules on the available cadence. Signals can fill no earlier than the next tradable step. Taker fills use top-of-book prices or available L2 depth, with Kalshi-style fees where modeled. Queue position, latency, and future liquidity are not fully modeled. Simulated P&L is net of modeled fees over the window.
Starting capital: Kalshi backtests use the strategy's configured max position as the risk-capital denominator. Return is computed from that configured capital, while total P&L is still shown in dollars.
Past performance: Backtested results are hypothetical. They are derived from historical data and do not reflect live execution risks like slippage beyond the orderbook, partial fills, API latency, or venue outages. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Not financial advice: Nothing on this page is investment, legal, or tax advice. Prediction markets carry real risk of loss. Only trade with money you can afford to lose, and do your own research before deploying any strategy live.
