Calibration

LOW tier, this pattern is structurally interesting but not directly calibratable yet. The confidence is a function of raw signal magnitude only.

Patterns of this shape resolved 4 YES of 10 historical Polymarket markets that share at least one of this claim's entities (6 NO, 40% YES rate).

Entities

Signals

Confidence (54%) is computed numerically from these signals. The sentence prose was written by an LLM given only the structured signals as input, the LLM never sees or chooses the confidence number.

What would change our mind

Any one of the three pair edges (Gaza Strip, United States, and Beirut) weakens below its 30-day baseline. The pattern requires all three to tighten — break one and the triangle dissolves.

Inversion conditions are a property of the pattern detector, not the LLM. Watch for this signal move and the claim should weaken or be superseded.
