Well, that was pretty fun. Had my first 'big' win on this site with the NO on a shutdown. I was on the bus checking my phone and saw that my balance was way higher than expected. Managed to dump off my shares in the low-mid 90's. Good timing, too, because last I saw it's dipped into the 80's again.

pathetic little tramp posted:Yeah, making money with any kind of swiftness is all luck really. The only strategy on a non-poll market is to find a NO that's way undervalued, grab onto it and put in your sell orders a little above it, hoping the eventual spike will happen sooner rather than later. Paul Ryan and and Jeb Hensarling both endorsed Tom Price.

I think the irrationality makes some sort of sense since it's a highly personal decision being made by a guy whose son just died. I'm not touching that market – a little too crazy for me, heh. I did just put half my roll into NO on Bush getting the nomination, and I think I'm long-term on this one.

Jim Webb NO seems like a good bet, but it bothers me that all he needs to do for it to resolve as YES is register as a candidate. I could easily see him registering, then being too lazy to actually campaign again.

That DPRK nuke market is extremely skewed toward the NO's. I'm glad I stuck it out. I got in at around 50 cents last night, nearly panicked, then bought in for more more for a total average of 31c. Sold at 69c just now.

I don't get what happened in the SOTU length market. I had shares in 60-65 minutes, and everything I've read pegged the speech at 58 minutes and change. But I logged in just now, and looks like all my shares resolved to yes.

Aliquid posted:Read the rules, it could be something weird. I bet it's some arcane thing like they start the clock when he walks through the door and begins glad-handing, instead of when he starts talking. Apparently he said "thank you" while in the range of the microphone before he was even introduced. Rules are rules.

I managed to get my entire (small) bankroll in on Tubman NO at 80c.
