Kalshi is a federally regulated derivatives exchange built for quants. Kalshi’s markets are volatile and settle daily, which means even a small edge can be extremely profitable. Trading is fully-cash collateralized, so you can never lose more than you put into a trade, and contracts can be purchased for as little as $0.01. Kalshi supports trading through its native app (iOS & Android), website, and API. The latter features extensive documentation, open-sources sample code, and live technical support. Getting started with an algorithmic strategy is as easy as `pip3 install kalshi_python`. The following data is available for free on both the website and API: * Historical spreads: Use past pricing data to set up back-tests within minutes. * Low-latency broadcasts: Receive live updates of market price movements and trade executions. * Economic projections: Build strategies using Kalshi’s proprietary forecasting tools.
