lelandjs posted:Ok, dumb question here I'm sure but what's the point of selling at .97 now? Because there's a chance that someone will buy them and you'll get your money sooner? Not a dumb question. It is because I made enough of a profit. I think the 3 cents per share that I am forfeiting is worth freeing up the money 10 weeks earlier.

EDIT: Also gently caress you PredictIt, I want to buy up the last of these sweet 96 cent shares. Buy some freaking bandwidth with the cut you're taking off the Biden profits.

So now that the Biden show is over, what's everyone hopping onto next for QUICK CASH? Thinking about buying Rubio at 0.42 then selling once the field clears a bit and he nabs a few endorsements.

First time this election cycle I get to smugly rub "I'm right you're wrong" in peoples' faces. My boss echoed the press hype for months. Today? "I'm not that good at figuring these types of things out, man." Maybe I should take my earnings from bank in $1s and follow him around the office tossing them in the air.

If I can pick up some YES for 1 or 2 cents I'm really tempted. The draft Biden crowd is crazy, the contract won't close for a long time, its going to bounce around, and he is still the backup in the unlikely event Hillary crashes

So, anyone do any weird poo poo to try to verify the Biden bid? Because I literally read the Biden wikipedia page in French to try to make sure I was being neutral. railroad terror posted:So now that the Biden show is over, what's everyone hopping onto next for QUICK CASH? Thinking about buying Rubio at 0.42 then selling once the field clears a bit and he nabs a few endorsements. This isn't quick cash, or even necessarily a safe bid, but I'm still holding out for shares of NO for Ryan as the next Speaker. There's no freaking way the Freedomites are letting go now that they've essentially been told that they hold all the cards, and there's no way Ryan is going to accede to whatever weird demands they come up with, it'd ruin his career.

I bought YES right after the debate at .45, sold after the news stories of Biden contacting advisors at .72, and then bought NO at .30 yesterday. I made this market my bitch aka I got super lucky and am probably cashing out now at +200%.

Question is when will the market resolve? Predictit can determine the market to have resolved earlier, so they could close it right now. Should I wait for that and get my full 900 dollars or just sell for 99 and make off with 891?

Congratulations to the 4000-share Biden NO goon. I got caught with my pants down (a classic Biden gaffe) by having too many cute orders in to buy/sell around the 29-35 cent range. Ended up making a 15% return in two days, but it could have been 330%. Live and learn, like ol' Diamond Joe would say.

I'm a cheapskate, so I always hold out for the extra couple bucks. Unless I think I think know something about a seriously undervalued market where those couple of bucks could be put to good use, or it's going to take forever for PredictIt to call the market, it doesn't make sense to me to do anything else.

On the one hand, I'm sad, because I wanted Joe to run. On the other, I'm happy, because I made a few hundred dollars. And still, I'm disappointed because I COULD HAVE MADE SO MUCH MORE!

Vox Nihili posted:1830 shares... Sell at 98c or wait for the full payout? Don't be greedy. Sell now. quote:Joseph R. Biden, Jr. shall become a candidate for president of the United States in the 2016 general election, by filing a Statement of Candidacy and/or a Statement of Organization of an exploratory committee for the office of president with the Federal Election Commission. I welcome other readings, but the way I look at it, the only way the contract resolves early is through a YES outcome. An announcement declaring NO does not shut it down early as there is nothing that precludes him changing his mind before December 31, 2015. If the Walker drop out is any indication, it crashes to 1cent the moment of the announcement, and then meanders aimlessly up to 3, 4, or 5 cents over the following months. Sell now
