- Jul 31, 2026positioninglow-controversy
ForecastEx continues to differentiate on restraint rather than reach — zero commission, spread-based revenue, and a deliberately narrow product set avoiding elections and sports — while unified IBKR routing (ForecastEx, Kalshi, and CME side by side in one brokerage account) has made it the low-controversy default option rather than a volume leader.
Scoring is illustrative and based on public information. SiaPredict does not provide legal advice.
