RP on INTRADE
- Thread starter gmason06

A couple issues with this:
1) Other sites offer much higher than 50-1 on Ron Paul winning the GOP nomination.
2) The market would correct itself fairly quickly, as bargain prices on the other candidates would become available. Also, I'm sure many Ron Paul bettors would bail at some point to lock in a profit.

A few points-
Yes it is true there are gambling sites where you can do better than 50-1 but those are ALL or Nothing/you must wait until the end for your BET to settle.
Also, I do not believe you can make a Bet on those sites for 16 cents.
As far as how much effect/how the market will move please read the analysis particularly the parts about the TOTAL RP contract value and the relative risk of Shorts vs. Longs per contract. That is, anyone trying to hold the market DOWN by selling currently risks around $9.80 per contract to try and hold the price down vs. buying currently risks only 16-20 "CENTS" per contract to counter there attempts at pushing the price down.
Anyway thanks for your input and any further thoughts you may have on this proposal.

Just Curious
I wonder how many that voted-NO/HELL NO read all the posts related to this proposal and/or how many of those understand the concept/benefits.
If the answer to both of those questions is-YES, what are your reason(s) for COMPLETELY ruling out even further considering participation?
I would not fault or hold the least bit of animosity toward any of the NO votes whatever their reasons/rationale, like I said, just curious.
Your response on this is appreciated.

***important Update***
RON PAUL RISING past few days/since Florida Primary fall out.
In the aftermath of Florida(9u11iani dropout) the status is:
Only RP and McLame increasing in price.
Romney and Huck are tanking hard.
If you are wanting to go LONG on RON PAUL better do so ASAP.
