How the score is built

Composite Breakdown

Closing-line value24.2/30

+6.1pts average CLV — the market moved toward these positions after entry. The sharpest, hardest-to-fake signal a trader leaves.

% return12.6/20

+7.8% unit-stake return across 144 resolved trades. Size-blind — never dollars.

Edge over implied12.5/20

55% hit rate at 50¢ average entry — an edge of +5pts over the price. Favorite-farming nets ~zero here.

Calibration (Brier)5.2/15

Brier 0.163 vs a 0.250 coin-flip baseline. The un-fakeable, un-importable piece of the badge.

Drawdown control0.2/10

39% max peak-to-trough on the equity curve. Rewards not blowing up on a losing streak.

Consistency / volume4.7/5

144 resolved trades this period. More resolved volume = more confidence the score is signal, not variance.

Size-blind — percentages only, never dollars. Full weighting at /methodology.

Receipts

Notable Calls

Sanctions package passes this month?

Lost
Entry 47¢Close 38¢CLV -9.0pts

Wrong call — priced the vote count too optimistically. A committee stall I underweighted. Logged as a process miss on whip-count reads, not a thesis miss.

Fed holds at the July meeting?

Won
Entry 58¢Close 72¢CLV +14.0pts

Fought the "cut" narrative when the desk consensus wobbled. Dots + the CPI print supported a hold; closed 72¢, resolved YES.

Ceasefire signed before quarter-end?

Won
Entry 34¢Close 61¢CLV +27.0pts

Entered at 34¢ off the wire divergence — Kalshi lagged Polymarket by 9pts. Market repriced to 61¢ within two days; resolved YES. Textbook cross-venue CLV capture.

Preseason: the profiles and stat lines currently shown are an illustrative preview while the league forms — not verified trading records. Once live, stat lines are factual records of past, resolved positions, published to every reader alike as impersonal market analysis — not personalized trading advice, and not a recommendation to buy or sell any contract. Past performance does not predict future results. Prediction markets involve risk of loss. W.E.T. is not a registered investment or commodity trading advisor.
