got in at 30 yesterday, and i'm currently in the same boat. i'm at least gonna wait until the provisional ballot ruling that should be out shortly.

dunno if people trust Pedigo anymore, but he's forecasting 19+ Hillary. Surprised me mainly bc he's usually very bullish on Bernie (thought he was gonna win AZ for chrissakes) but he might be overcompensating after being off in WY by a huge amount.

I bought in at 31,I don't have that much money in it so it's an amount I'm comfortable losing, but why lose if you can come out ahead?

Given how much money a cop lost in the early part of the primary season, those buys now are really just karma balancing the scales.

CNN saying they'll be taking a look at first exit polls at the top of the hour.

so by top of the hour expect it to be a little past that
and by exit polls I mean we get to find out how many r voters are Angry and how many d voters want to Continue Obama's Policies

Yeah same. MSNBC has her with a 22 point lead with 32% in. I'm buying more at 50c expecting it to trend upwards for at least a bit.

1591 shares averaged at 51c for me...this is the first time I've had to actually decide how greedy I should be on this site.

Nice. I'd say sell enough around 70-80 to hedge it so you for sure break even if it flips. Or, gently caress it, let it ride if you can handle the losses. Looking good so far. The margin has dropped from 22% to 21% with the vote going from 30 to 40%. Going to be crazy close if that trend holds- though I've not been watching the precincts that have been dumping votes.

Kicking myself for not going all in at 20-something cents when ~15% of the vote was in, but I haven't seen it go below my average since I decided to pull the trigger.

I'm doing some modest flipping but given how slow the site is, I'm mostly just aggregating some cheap NOs - a few outfits predicting 12-14% margins (NYT Upshot @ 12%, Benchmark @ 14%

note this could backfire horribly obviously and I'm already net down in this market so I'm probably on tilt but I think prices in the 30s are still too low

Well I sold all my shares of MoV yes at 60 cents, forgot I had set a sell offer there. Fingers crossed that the race tightens so I don't feel like I lost out on potential profits.

Sold 100 shares of Bernie NO to play the MOV flips. Trying to decide where to land. I think this could end up going YES. Nassau County and lots of downstate NY haven't reported yet, and that will MORE than cancel out upstate votes. Some of those upstate counties have hundreds or thousand of votes. Downstate is another couple orders of magnitude.

At the end of the day never regret ending up. Someone said it way earlier in this thread but never measure yourself in how much you *could* have made in hindsight. Down that path lies madness.
