Tips for using our sports mentions tool

Here are some tips to win more using our tool:

  • Use the filters, especially the announcer one. Mention rate varies significantly based on who is calling the game and which teams are playing. Some announcers regularly say the words/phrases Kalshi offers markets on, while others never say them. Similarly, certain strikes are more/less likely to be said based on the teams playing, such as "injury" being mentioned when teams are facing a lot of injuries.
  • Supplement with research. The tool gives a good baseline to find value, but we always recommend doing a bit of additional research to determine if you truly found value. For example, if you're trading "comeback," you could check to see if either of the teams had a big comeback win last week.
  • Consider general league news and trends. If there was a blockbuster trade within days of a game starting, it may be brought up by the announcers even if the teams playing weren't involved in the trade. Keeping a general pulse of league news and trends helps you spot potential mentions that others aren't.
  • Use limit orders. Limit orders are great if the game isn't starting for a few hours or days because they help you get a better price (assuming it gets filled) and you pay less in fees. We generally recommend placing limit orders towards the highest Bid price to increase the chances it gets filled.
  • Set NO limit orders to expire when the game starts. Whenever placing a limit order for NO, we recommend setting it to expire when the event starts. That way, if a strike is mentioned during the game, you won't immediately be filled and lose.
