Implied probability FAQ
- Is a contract price the same as a win probability?
- A Yes/No contract price is often treated as an implied probability before fees and spread — not a guarantee that the event will happen at that rate. Always read resolution rules on the venue.
- Why show American and decimal odds?
- Some readers know sportsbook-style American or decimal formats. The optional readout reuses the same educational converter math as ChanceWire’s odds comparator. It is not a live sportsbook or Kalshi/Novig quote.
- Can I share a link with my price?
- Yes. The tool updates the URL softly with ?p=0.55 (fraction) or ?cents=55 so you can share a literacy example. Shared links are educational scratch values — not live market data.
- Does this pull Polymarket or Kalshi live prices?
- No. You type the price. Live Polymarket Yes/No prices live on /markets. Kalshi and Novig stay Not listed on ChanceWire until written BD / data license — we never invent those quotes.
- Is this financial advice?
- No. Educational SoftCta guidance only. SoftCta /r locks stay unchanged. Not legal, tax, or financial advice.
