Cycle
Pay $1.00 to mint a complete set, sell both sides at $0.02, redeem winner at $1.00 at expiry. Net = $1.00 + sells - $1.00 = sells.
Edge
Gamblers buy the obviously-losing side at $0.02 because $0.02 → $1.00 looks like a 50× shot. Each fill is pure premium — no directional view required.
Targets
At $2K capital running ~200 cycles/day at avg $0.02 fills = $40-$80/day. Dad funds $2K once 100 cycles prove the loop.
Loss case
Only loses money if a side sells above $0.02 average and the other side never fills — rare. Hard floor: bot stops cycling if 30 consecutive cycles return $0.00.
