This ladder settles on a closing price, not a touch: it pays only if the price is still past the strike at the close. A wick that liquidates you and bounces back would not pay. The hedge closes on Nov 30, 5:00 PM ET; the perp does not. Re-hedge on the next month's ladder if you hold longer.

Live from Kalshi's public perps API, Nov 10, 2026, 10:16 PM ET. Funding uses the XAG 30-day average per daily window (+0.0354%); a single print can run to Kalshi's ±2% cap. Liquidation ignores fees and funding already paid, which pull it closer. See every print on the Silver perps page.

What to know about Silver perps

Silver perps launched Sept. 10, 2026 after CFTC approval, trade around the clock, and fund once a day at 10 a.m. ET instead of three times. They carry the most leverage on Kalshi, which also means the thinnest cushion: at max leverage a normal day’s move can liquidate you. If you stack physical metal, a perp is a very different animal: no storage, no premium over spot, but a funding bill and a liquidation price.

Reference price: Pyth silver index (always-on pricing; Kalshi / Pyth announcement, Sept 2026).

Silver perps on Kalshi — frequently asked

What is the funding rate on Kalshi Silver perps?

Silver funds once a day at 10 a.m. ET. Since launch the average has worked out to 7.9% a year paid by longs, and 38% of the 61 prints paid nothing because Kalshi rounds rates under 0.01% to zero. The most recent print was +0.0599%.

How much leverage can I use on Kalshi Silver perps?

At a $1,000 position Kalshi allowed about 8.3x long and 9.1x short when this page last refreshed. Bigger positions get less.

What are the fees on Kalshi Silver perps?

Kalshi charges perps fees on the full notional value of the position (margin × leverage), once to open and once to close. At the entry tier that is 0.120% for a taker fill and 0.020% for a resting maker fill; rates step down as your 30-day volume grows, and Kalshi counts your prediction-market volume toward that tier, not just perps.

Can I hedge a Silver perp with a Kalshi event contract?

Yes. Kalshi lists a Silver monthly close ladder. It settles on a closing price rather than a touch, so it only pays if the price is still past the strike at the close. It is a partial hedge, not a perfect one. The perps calculator on this page finds the right strike and prices it.

Perps carry leverage and can lose your entire margin quickly. Numbers are read from Kalshi's public API and our own math; PredictionMarketsPicks is independent of Kalshi. Trade responsibly.
