Analysis
This probability reflects market expectations that Russian forces will capture Lyman, a city in Donetsk that Ukraine recaptured in October 2022, before a specified future date. The 3% level suggests participants assess this outcome as unlikely given current frontline positions and Ukrainian defensive capabilities. The probability would move primarily on changes to the military balance in eastern Ukraine—significant Russian advances or Ukrainian withdrawals in the Donetsk region could raise it, while stabilized front lines or Ukrainian counteroffensives would likely keep it low. The resolution will depend on actual territorial control as confirmed by military sources and open-source intelligence tracking, with any major shifts in the conflict's momentum serving as potential catalysts for probability adjustment.
- ›Current front-line distance between Russian and Ukrainian forces near Lyman, measurable through satellite imagery and military reports
- ›Trajectory of Russian territorial gains in Donetsk Oblast over recent months, which would indicate whether momentum supports capture
- ›Ukrainian force strength and defensive positions in the Lyman area, including fortifications and reserve availability
- ›Supply line sustainability for either side attempting to hold or capture the city
- ›Broader ceasefire negotiations or peace agreements that could freeze territorial lines before capture occurs

How we compute these odds
SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.
For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.
Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
