NY DEM MoV market down to 91 cents now, largely because people think its Missouri all over again. Free money for anyone who wants to wait. Unfortunately for me, I have to wait.

Missouri wait was almost a month. The only good thing was by the time I got the money, I had forgot it existed.

Don't be so sure about that. It's a long shot but his campaign has been giving very real signals that they'll tap out after Tuesday if they get swept. Don't know what the fair price is here but buying in at .10 like I did was a no-brainer.

tldr: the time to buy into this was two weeks ago. I wouldn't touch this now

He probably won't drop but I'm near certain that people will panic on Tuesday night thinking he will drop and get the price at least around 40 for at least enough time to scoop some profits out.

Easier money: Trump NO 50% in all five states.

Although that's liable to swing violently on Tuesday around 7PM Eastern.

I think you lose this bet in Delaware nearly every time and in CT something like 60%.

No, its a single market that he will get 50% in all five states. The way his Pennsylvania and Maryland polls are going, this is a very good No bet.

I'm kind of tempted to buy Trump Trumping all 5 states YES just on the probability that it's probably going to bounce back a little bit as he starts winning/looking like he's gonna sweep.

Net gain/loss is your unrealized gains/losses. It's mostly irrelevant (and doesn't include fees).

Yes only wins if Trump gets 50% in each of the five states.

Also, glad I got in on Sanders dropout, yes is rising at a good clip again.

Kasich two primaries No and Trump 50% all five No are the closest things you can find to free money IMO, both below 90c right now.

Did something new come out? Last I checked, Trump had a comfy lead that is about to get comfort and Pence is solidly the choice of the Cruz crowd

A general election poll released this morning shows even Trump beats Clinton in the state by a comfortable margin. That doesn't bode well for Gregg.

Is there any rhyme or reason for when new markets go up? I was thinking a Hillary Sweeps market would be good but it would be no different from "Does Hillary win Rhode Island."

Yeah, it'd be great to get another market but unfortunately I think the Dem RI and Sanders Dropout markets are kind of the de facto Hillary Sweeps at this point.

How likely do you think it is that Bernie actually drops out after Tuesday? I'm fairly certain he'll pickup at least one primary in May, and I doubt he's going to be losing money. Hell, I'm getting even more calls to help out Bernie now than even when we had our primary. Seems like a decent strategy would be to buy Bernie Drop out YES, sell off Tuesday nigh, then buy the cheap Drop out NOs right away.

I think flipping dropout yes for Tues is a no-brainer but I don't know about holding either position. I plan to leave a couple hundred shares of dropout yes in to ride out on Wed. If he has no plans for appearances in Indiana, his campaign is sending mixed messages about what is going to happen, and he's polling poorly in RI, the one state he's hoping to win on Tuesday...I think he might throw in the towel. I'm not as cynical as people are here that he's just going to keep spending college kids' money as long as they send it to him.

But I could be wrong!

I think he's actually going for something, but I don't know what it is. It can't be thinking he can win or something like that. However, if he was just going to drop out I feel like he should have done that after New York. Maybe he doesn't think Hillary has gone far enough left yet, or the concessions he's requesting from the DNC haven't been negotiated out yet.

This is why I am 99% confident he won’t be the nominee. If anyone in the establishment was considering him, they would toss him enough money to keep his operation going.
