A concise project note on PMarket Arena, a browser-based simulation workbench for studying trader behavior, shocks, liquidity stress, and market convergence.

Why a prediction-market price is not enough, and why I built a live arena to expose the machinery behind it.

Why final outcome is not enough, and why a useful market lab needs a hidden truth path to judge price discovery.

Why the same prediction-market price can mean wisdom, crowding, panic, or delayed correction depending on who produced it.

Inside the browser engine that turns cohort beliefs, shocks, liquidity, and correction pressure into a live simulated price.

How a prediction market can keep trading, keep moving, and still become a worse information signal.

Why correction pressure can be right in direction and still fail in size, speed, capital, or timing.

How I turn simulation runs into auditable artifacts, and why reproducibility is part of the instrument itself.

Why the next research interface is not only a paper, but a simulation readers can inspect, intervene in, and reuse.
