扩大Kalshi头寸与传统市场
由原文自动翻译 · 阅读原文 (English)
我在Kalshi上玩了几个月,主要是在我非常有信心的结果上投入小额头寸。我盈利了,但规模很小。我通常的股票交易是根据每笔交易的风险、止损等来确定头寸大小的。Kalshi不同,它是基于事件的二元交易。当你们发现一个非常有信心的优势时,你们是如何考虑扩大头寸规模的?是简单地提高资本的百分比,还是对这类市场有不同的框架?

The key difference is that Kalshi's outcomes are binary and time-bound, which changes how you calculate expected value and risk per trade. For larger positions, I start by assessing the actual probability of the event, not just my gut feeling, and then compare that to the implied probability from the market price.
The scaling in Kalshi is tricky. Without traditional stop-losses, a larger position means accepting the full potential loss on a 'wrong' call, which can be quite different from managing drawdowns in equities. It sounds like you're already aware of that, though.
Kalshi is less about scaling an 'edge' and more about pure probability. If you think the market is mispricing an event at 60% probability when you're at 80%, you hit it hard. Stop losses don't exist here.
This is a great question. I've been wondering the same thing. How do you even define 'risk per trade' when it's all or nothing? Do you just bet a fixed percentage of your account?
Scaling up on Kalshi is tricky because the liquidity can be so thin, especially on less popular contracts. Even if you're confident in your edge, trying to put on size can move the market against you pretty quickly, unlike the deeper liquidity you often find in traditional equity markets.
