When to use it

When social media, news headlines, or market titles are louder than the actual rules.

Warning: The loudest story is often not the market that resolves.

How not to use it

Do not paste vague summaries. Do not ask the AI what to bet. Do not accept an answer that ignores exact wording, timing, resolution source, counterarguments, or No-Play discipline. The output is a mirror, not a verdict.

Copy prompt

Paste into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or your preferred AI tool. OddsXray gives the workflow; your AI tool does the writing and analysis.

Compare the public headline to the actual market contract.

Headline/public story:
[paste]

Market title and wording:
[paste]

Tell me:
1. What the public story implies
2. What the contract actually resolves on
3. Where the two diverge
4. How a casual trader could overreact
5. Whether emotion is distorting interpretation
6. The one sentence warning label I should remember

No trade recommendation. Diagnose the gap.

Recommended output discipline

After the AI answers, force it into a final structure: exact contract read, main uncertainty, best counterargument, trap label, verification checklist, and whether Wait or No-Play is cleaner than forcing action.
