Break-even is the win rate these prices require just to stand still. Winning 85.7% of the time against a 80.8% requirement is +4.9 points ahead — that gap is the whole business.

"BTC vs target" is how many dollars above (+) or below (−) the target BTC sat when the call was made. That, the minutes left, and how fast BTC had been moving are the whole basis of every call — so a loss with a small gap and plenty of time is the bot being unlucky, and one with a big gap is it being wrong.

what this is measured against

Over 63 days of Kalshi history the shipped rule made 272 trades, won 89.3% of them against an 81.3% break-even, and returned +10.35% per dollar staked after fees. Its worst drawdown was 29%.

28 of the roughly 100 settled calls needed before the live win rate means much. Two or three losses in the first dozen is ordinary; four or more in twenty would say the model is wrong.
