Understanding Position Sizing in Event Contracts
When trading event contracts, especially on platforms like Kalshi, effective position sizing isn't just about how much capital you're risking in total, but also how much leverage each contract implicitly carries. A contract priced at $0.10 has a different risk-reward profile and requires a different sizing approach than one at $0.90, even if both represent a potential $1 payout.

Absolutely, the delta between the contract price and the $1 payout is where the real leverage hides. It's like buying a lottery ticket, but instead of winning millions, you're hoping to win a dollar. And you're stressing over whether to buy one ticket for $0.10 or ten for $0.01 each.
