Using LLMs for Prediction Market Signal Generation
Use LLMs to generate prediction market signals: what they're good at, the calibration trap, and a practical pipeline with code for a tradeable signal.
The Bot for Kalshi team builds and operates the platform this blog belongs to — the trading engine, the bot builder, and the signal system. Everything here comes out of that work: watching live Kalshi order books, running automated strategies with real money, and supporting the traders who use them. We cover strategy, market mechanics, fees, automation, and risk management, and we hold the writing to the same rule as the product: if we can't back a claim, we don't publish it. Automated trading involves real risk, and most traders lose money — you'll see that caveat often, because it's true.
