From Vibes to PnL

Most prediction-market trading starts with a vibe: a belief about an outcome, a narrative, strong opinion, or a mental if/then model.

PredictBack is built to move you past that—toward rule-based, testable, repeatable strategies that can be evaluated on actual PnL, not intuition.

Instead of asking “Do I think this resolves Yes?”, PredictBack lets you ask and quantify:

  • What rules trigger entry and exit?

  • How does this logic behave across many markets?

  • What happens when liquidity disappears?

  • Where does execution destroy the edge?

What Makes Prediction Markets Different

Prediction markets look simple. They are not.

  • Binary outcomes hide path-dependent PnL Interim price movement, timing, and exits matter far more than resolution alone.

  • Liquidity is episodic and event-driven Volume clusters around news, narratives, and deadlines—not continuously.

  • Execution assumptions dominate returns Slippage, partial fills, and queue position often matter more than signal quality.

  • Strategies are regime-fragile Many approaches work briefly, then decay or invert.

Naive backtests that assume perfect fills or static liquidity produce misleading results. PredictBack is designed to surface where and why strategies break, not just where they look good.

What You Can Do With PredictBack

PredictBack lets you:

  • Test systematic, rule-based trading logic instead of one-off opinions

  • Evaluate strategies across many markets, not cherry-picked examples

  • Measure execution drag, capital usage, and drawdowns explicitly

  • Compare strategies on a like-for-like basis

  • Iterate quickly from hypothesis → evidence → refinement

The goal is not to tell you what to trade. It’s to help you understand what actually works, under realistic assumptions.

Our Philosophy

PredictBack is opinionated by design:

  • Realism over optimism

  • Research over narratives

  • Failure discovery over curve-fitting

If a strategy only works under perfect execution, infinite liquidity, or hindsight—it doesn’t work.

PredictBack exists to make that obvious before capital is at risk.
