    Not scored: this was logged after the event had already started, which Crossbook’s forecast window failed to catch because the venue published a closing date that included a dispute buffer. It counts toward nothing. Why.

    • Signal: with only ~3 trading days left, the question reduces to whether PLTR's intraday low dips to $168 this week; PLTR's elevated realized volatility makes modest pullbacks within a week common, supporting a majority-probability YES.
    • Signal: the 77.5% market price implies spot is likely a few percent above $168 (not at or below it, which would make this near-certain, nor far above, which would price lower); my independent estimate of ~71% sits slightly below market, a divergence plausibly explained by the very thin $1,250 volume making the price noisy and possibly momentum-chased.
    • Narrative risk to flag: PLTR is a retail-momentum favorite prone to both sharp rallies and sharp mean-reverting drops; either regime shift (AI-sector selloff or a melt-up away from the strike) could move this substantially in either direction, hence low confidence.

    What would change it: If I learned PLTR's actual current price were more than ~6-8% above $168 (e.g., >$180), my estimate would drop toward 40-50%; if it were already at or below $168, it would rise toward 95%+.
