Kalshi: Trade on the Election
Kalshi is the first legal platform for trading on Headlines like stocks. With over 300 markets available, including finance, economics, politics, weather, and more, users can make money 24/7 on the simplest and fastest markets. The platform allows trading on various categories such as financials, politics, economics, climate, culture, collectibles and games. Kalshi works as a regulated exchange where users can buy and sell contracts on the outcome of events. Contract prices reflect the traders' view on the chances of the event occurring, and contracts can be bought for as low as 1¢. The platform is federally regulated as a Designated Contract Market (DCM) and provides clearing services through a regulated clearinghouse. Users can trade on their convictions and reduce financial risk by hedging against events that may impact their finances. Kalshi's event contracts are more direct compared to stocks and options, as profits are not tied to the company's performance and the contracts are simpler to understand. The platform is free to open and maintain an account, requires less capital than other markets, and offers advanced tools and API access for building algorithms and backtesting strategies. Additionally, traders can earn monthly rebates through the volume incentive program.
