| Description | Trade the resolution ‘Will the Taliban reopen secondary schools (grades 7-12) for girls across Afghanistan by December 31, 2026?’ Buy ‘No’ shares. Rationale: five consecutive years of bans, no credible policy reversal signals, and the regime treats the ban as a core ideological position, making reversal unlikely within the 4.5-month window. Enter between August and September 2026. Stake: $1,000-$2,000 (max 2-5% of your trading bankroll). If ‘No’ is available at $0.80-$0.85 per share, buy; expected payout $1.00 at resolution, netting roughly $150-$250 per $1,000 staked (15-25%). Hold to resolution Dec 31, 2026; take early profit if ‘No’ reaches $0.95+ before then. Set a mental stop: exit if credible reports of school reopening trials emerge. |
| Monetization | Profit from the spread between the purchase price of ‘No’ shares and the $1.00 resolution payout; no other revenue stream. |
