1k ft — Deep-dive / try it
Before quitting your 9–5 to trade full-time, understand the competition: a student using a dorm-built weather station is generating over $100K trading weather prediction markets on Polymarket.
This is data-driven trading, quantitative analysis, and event-based forecasting, leveraging real-time weather data, temperature modeling, and probability mispricing across weather contracts and prediction markets.
Instead of guessing, this strategy relies on information asymmetry, statistical edge, and localized data advantages, turning forecasting accuracy into consistent profit.
This is what modern trading looks like:
quant trading, alternative data, predictive modeling, and systematic execution.
Not luck.
Not vibes.
Data wins.
