Definitions

Event contract
A contract whose value follows a defined event, such as an election. It settles on the outcome. It does not trade a continuous price forever.
Prediction market
A venue where event contracts trade, so their prices express a market-implied probability of the event happening.
Prediction market index
A rules-based benchmark built from selected event contracts. An index provider calculates it, not a venue.
