Kalshi WTI 15-minute — trades and USD turnover summed per calendar month (UTC) over every contract, from our own daily statistics of the recorded tick data. Days = captured UTC days; a partial month shows no month-over-month change. Contracts traded and L2 (order-book) updates exist for days captured with the extended statistics.

Opening price vs outcome

WTI 15-minute — did the favourite win?

The side the opening price favoured finished in the money 60 % of the time across 774 settled WTI 15-minute contracts that opened away from 50 ¢ among the day's most traded contracts, 2026-08-10 – 2026-11-06. Contracts opening at 50–60 ¢ — 477 of them — closed Yes 87 % of the time.

Opening priceContractsClosed YesClosed NoYes shareOpen at last print
40–50 ¢3042325381 %19

60–70 ¢4230781 %5
other opening prices3931586 %3
Total86269312785 %42

Opening price = the contract's first recorded print on the first day it ranked among the day's ten most traded contracts of the series (not its listing price), grouped in 10 ¢ steps (contracts quote 0..1 = 100 ¢). Outcome implied by its last recorded print across the window (≥ 0.97 = Yes, ≤ 0.03 = No; the rest still open at the last print) — venues publish the official result, we record the market. The sample is the daily top-10 by turnover, so it leans towards the closest, most traded contests. Deciles with fewer than 20 contracts are folded into one row.

Buy share = taker-buy side of turnover; spread = the contract's turnover-weighted quoted bid-ask spread in cents, top-1 depth = mean best-bid/ask notional per side, L2 updates = order-book level updates recorded for the contract that day. “Settles” is the venue-listed close time of the contract where the venue publishes one (UTC).

Build a WTI 15-minute model on this data

Every WTI 15-minute event lists a ladder of strikes — one contract per range — and the rung that settles in the money is the label, so the ladder's prices read as an implied distribution rather than one probability. The day bundle holds the full order-book path and trade tape of every rung, nanosecond-stamped; the statistics on this page cover the most traded contracts per day; the bundle holds every contract listed on Kalshi that day.

Split by release or event day, never at random — every rung of one ladder settles on the same print, so the whole ladder is one example; walk forward over releases. The ladder guide works distribution labels, cross-strike features and the link to the crypto strike grids through.

Why CryptoStruct

Why buy Kalshi WTI 15-minute data here

Four things every page on this site is built on — and the reason the numbers above exist at all.

We record everything

The complete public feed of each venue as it was published: every Level-2 snapshot and update at the venue's full book depth, every trade with its aggressor side, every quote, funding, mark-price and liquidation event — for every instrument the venue lists, every UTC day since we added the venue. Nothing sampled, no top-N cut, no on-demand capture.

Institutional grade

Captured co-located at the venue with the exchange timestamp and our receive timestamp in integer nanoseconds, an event-id chain that makes any gap visible, and one normalized schema across 35+ venues — the same capture our own high-frequency trading engine and enterprise feeds run on.

€1 per instrument-day

Any instrument-day is €1, series-day bundles start at €1 — no subscription, no minimum order, no tiers to unlock. Credit packs lower the effective price and never expire, and free full-day samples from the major venues let you test first.

Self-service for everyone

Pick the days in the Data Shop, pay by card as a guest and download immediately — no sales call, no enterprise contract, no KYC. Coding agents buy the same files through the MCP server, and the free Agent Skill teaches them the format.

FAQ

Kalshi WTI 15-minute data — FAQ

What Kalshi WTI 15-minute data can I download?

Tick-by-tick trades and Level-2 order-book depth for every contract of the WTI 15-minute series on Kalshi (98 contract files on the latest day). One bundle = one UTC day of the whole series.

What is the Kalshi series ticker for WTI 15-minute?

KXWTI15M — every contract of the series carries this prefix in its ticker (followed by the event date and strike). Files in a day bundle are named by the full contract ticker, so a bundle holds every KXWTI15M-* contract listed that UTC day.

How far back does the WTI 15-minute data go?

Coverage runs July 2026 – present — 98 trading days in total.

What format are the Kalshi files in?

One zstd-compressed text file per contract per UTC day, in the same normalized schema as our crypto venues — see the market-data specification; free samples on the downloads page.

Can I get Kalshi WTI 15-minute data as CSV or Parquet?

Yes — trades export as gzipped CSV or Parquet at no extra cost, with integer microsecond UTC timestamps that load straight into pandas, polars or DuckDB. Kalshi records full order-book depth without a separate BBO stream, so book data ships in the native tick file — the free reader script converts it locally. See the formats overview.

How much does Kalshi WTI 15-minute historical data cost?

€1 per series-day bundle — every contract of the series for that day — no subscription, no minimum order; buy as a guest in the Data Shop and download immediately. Credit packs lower the effective price and never expire.

Do I need an account or a sales call?

No. Pick the WTI 15-minute series-days in the Data Shop, pay by card as a guest and download immediately — no subscription, no minimum order, no KYC, no enterprise contract, no sales call. Coding agents buy the same bundles through the MCP server.

How is the Kalshi WTI 15-minute data captured?

Co-located at the venue, message by message: every Level-2 update and every trade print carries the exchange timestamp and our receive timestamp in integer nanoseconds, an event-id chain makes any gap visible, and one normalized schema across 35+ venues means a parser written for Binance reads these files unchanged. It is the same capture our own high-frequency trading engine runs on — nothing sampled, no top-N cut.

How many WTI 15-minute contracts trade per day on Kalshi?

On average 72 WTI 15-minute contracts had at least one trade per UTC day over the last 30 captured days on Kalshi, with about 6.9M order-book level updates recorded per day. A day bundle contains every contract file of the series for that day.

How liquid are Kalshi WTI 15-minute contracts?

Over the last 30 captured days, the turnover-weighted quoted bid-ask spread was 1.75 ¢ (contracts quote 0..1 = 100 ¢), the mean best-bid/best-ask notional was about $18.8K per side, 46 % of USD turnover was taker-buy. These figures are computed from the recorded Level-2 order books and trade prints — the same data in the day bundles.

What was the most traded WTI 15-minute contract on 2026-11-06?

KXWTI15M-26NOV052245-45 (WTI15M · 45) — $150.0K USD turnover over 3,136 trades on Kalshi. The 10 most traded contracts of the series did 38,926 trades and $1.2M that UTC day. Open, high, low, close and VWAP per contract are listed on this page; the tick-level data is in the day bundle.

Did the favourite win in WTI 15-minute contracts?

Of 774 settled WTI 15-minute contracts that opened away from 50 ¢ among the day's most traded contracts between 2026-08-10 and 2026-11-06 on Kalshi, the side the opening price favoured finished in the money 60 % of the time; the largest group, 477 contracts opening at 50–60 ¢, closed Yes 87 % of the time. Outcomes are implied from each contract's last recorded print (≥ 0.97 / ≤ 0.03), not the venue's official settlement, and the opening price is the first print on the first day the contract ranked among the ten most traded of the series; the opening-price table on this page lists every 10 ¢ step, and the tick data behind it is in the day bundles.

What was the busiest WTI 15-minute trading day on Kalshi?
