What it does:
-Easily see a graph of a candidate's chances (say Biden) of winning the presidency, nomination, IA, NH, SC, NV with some news
-You can add a graph of any market (something you can’t do on PredictIt’s current UI)
-Stack: Postgres, Express, Node, React-Redux, SemanticUI (React), ChartJS( React)
-You can also add any PredictIt market to any chart
-APIs used: PredictIt, Contextual News
-Works better on desktop but all functions can be accessed on mobile; give the first chart ~10-15 seconds to load and if still does not appear, refresh
NB: PredictIt Contracts are binary options that will mature to $1.00 if event occurs or $0.00 otherwise. Thus a contract trading at 35¢ can be thought of as a market consensus of roughly 35% probability of occurring.
