damn, i hate these $1/day date markets. it’s just evil how much money you can make even if you’re the only trader. who got here before me?
Haha I think I did!
Yeah… they need to set it up so that you can start a “when will x happen” market in the middle of the likely time period, with the ability to short sell to a sooner date. Right now the date you start it at has to be the earliest possible date it can cash out at, which is kinda broken.
Also, the Inkling/day ratio is crazy some times. The man on the moon and google lunar challenge markets are already trading at several hundred inklings per stock, and will probably cash out much higher than that. It’s a useful safe place for those of us with loads of capital to stuff it for long periods of time, but it’s not really a particularly good setup.
The date will be determined from the Wikipedia announcement page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Announcements
