Thesis

Why the estimate deviates from the market

  1. 1.Order book shows ask-side pressure (-18.4% imbalance within 5% of mid) on $97 of depth. [book_imbalance v1.0.0, weight 0.17]

Counter-thesis

Why this may be wrong

  1. 1.Model confidence is 0.20; the estimate is shrunk heavily toward the market price and should be treated as weak.
  2. 2.Only $40 of depth within 5% of mid; size is limited and slippage will reduce realised edge.

Key catalysts

  1. 1.Resolution in 25.6 days; price convergence typically accelerates near expiry.

What would invalidate this

  1. 1.Market price moving to 1% would close the gap.
  2. 2.A reversal in the order-book imbalance or trade-flow direction that drove this estimate.
  3. 3.Liquidity falling materially below $97 would make the edge uncapturable regardless of accuracy.

Signal breakdown

Each signal is an independent estimate. Contribution is weight × logit distance from the market price.
