Can we try this out for a CO-01 D Primary MOV market? And a CO-Sen D primary market.

ahhh gotcha. IIRC the way this was handled in the LA Mayor "dashboard" was pretty intuitive

When I started trading these margin markets last Nov I really hated thinking about the bounded margin brackets

But my view is that increased retail flow would make the latter more profitable overall, since the former isn't profitable if you're the only person on the OB

So if your model says a candidate wins by exactly 11%, with narrow bounded strikes, you can probably buy like 9-12% for $.20 or lower (thinking about some recent elections where this was the case). With open-ended strikes, you'd probably have to buy like 10%+ for $.40, 5%+ for $.80, 15%+ N for $.80, etc.

<@1212792946341183578> <@941405798096076880> Just to give some feedback: For secondary election markets like MOV % and candidate Vote %, I think the default should be open-ended strikes instead of bounded strikes. Open-ended strikes are more intuitive and make it easy to discern what the market thinks the O/U is just from looking at the orderbook. I also suspect open-ended strikes are more attractive to retail traders, who likely get intimidated thinking about bounded strikes. "I think my candidate will win by 10% or more" is an easier bet to place than "I think my candidate will win by somewhere between 9 and 12 exactly." I can see modelsharps preferring bounded ranges because it theoretically allows them to deploy capital more efficiently, but that doesn't matter if the retail flow is worse.

"i think my candidate wins by 10 at least" is more attractive to bet on than "i think my candidate wins by 9-12% exactly"

its super intuitive, and it makes it easy to discern what the market thinks the O/U is. i also think for big races it's gonna be more attractive for retail, who will get intimidated trying to guess whether a result will fall between like, 3 and 6

<@717963841245282355> <@1066645794108735510> after LA Sen, i just want to say trading open-ended margin tranches is so much nicer than the bounded ones

i dont think N holders can point to actual harm from the decision to accelerate. im more curious as to why it happened procedurally

if the vasc stepped in tomorrow and said "actually, go and certify it" then yeah kalshi would have a big ass problem on their hands, but its not happening

yeah like i was saying earlier, you do have a theoretical argument there, but it's all irrelevant

i was thinking about this the other day: vasc overturning this thing and denying certification completely was actually nearly unprecedented in the USA, and that hasnt been remarked upon much

iirc it resolved after the us supreme court declined to hear the case, meaning the Yes side had no legal avenues left. i kind of agree with you in the sense that, theoretically Yes could have gone back to the courts with a different argument, and some court could have ordered certification. but in the real world thats not happening even 1:1000 times
