Summary
Kalshi's new 'perps' product crossed $1 billion in volume within a week of launch. Lucas and Luna break down what this means for retail day traders: how perpetual futures on prediction markets differ from traditional crypto perps, why the VIX spike to 20.42 and the Nasdaq's 4.4% weekly drop create a natural habitat for these contracts, and whether Kalshi perps are a hedge, a gamble, or a new source of intraday dispersion. Plus, a real trade example using the VVIX 'volatility of volatility' regime to size a position. No hype — just a practical look at a market structure shift that landed this week. #Kalshi #Perps #PredictionMarkets #DayTrading #VIX #VVIX #Nasdaq #RetailTrading #Hedging #Dispersion #Volatility #Futures #Crypto #MarketStructure #Finance #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
