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 14 YES of 39 historical Polymarket markets that share at least one of this claim's entities (25 NO, 36% YES rate).

  • YES Will WTI Crude Oil (WTI) hit (HIGH) $105 in April? resolved 2026-04-30
  • NO Will WTI Crude Oil (WTI) hit (LOW) $60 in April? resolved 2026-04-30
  • NO Will WTI Crude Oil (WTI) hit (HIGH) $115 in April? resolved 2026-04-30

Entities

Signals

Confidence (65%) 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 (United States, Iraq, and WTI Crude Oil Price) 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 Watch for this signal move and the claim should weaken or be superseded.
