Chance = the market's implied probability of the event. Risk = whether the recent move implies more (↑, red) or less (↓, green) geopolitical risk — shown only where a question maps cleanly to escalation/de-escalation. Thinly traded = little money resting near the price relative to how much it trades, so it's easy to move. Unusual flags a large one-way move into a thin book — could be early information or just noise, not an accusation. Data from Polymarket; not investment advice.
