PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue: Fundamental market structure mismatch: Kalshi market is logically flawed (will always resolve to Yes) while Polymarket uses proper categorical resolution with cancellation handlingHero tip: Avoid Kalshi market as it cannot resolve correctly. Use Polymarket for accurate outcome-based trading. If game is canceled, Kalshi has no resolution path while Polymarket resolves 50-50

Critical divergence points:

  • Kalshi: Market resolves to Yes if Portland wins OR if Toronto wins the Toronto vs Portland game on Aug 6, 2026 - this logic will always resolve to Yes regardless of actual game outcome
  • Polymarket: Resolves to Indiana Fever if they win, Toronto Tempo if they win, or 50-50 if game is canceled entirely with no make-up game. Game scheduled for August 18 at 7:00PM ET with official WNBA scores as source
