FREE INKLE IDEA FOR WEEK OF 9/8
If you buy ten shares of the L.A. Dodgers to reach the 2008 MLB playoffs, it will cost you $392.70.
Then sell ten shares of the L.A Dodgers to win the NL West in 2008. You will receive $400.84.
Why do all of this for a return of $8.14? Because you are guaranteed a positive return, and if the Dodgers lose the division but earn a wildcard slot, you earn inkles on both legs of the trade. Is this likely? No. Will you earn free inkles regardless? Yes.
DISCLAIMER: I hold a position in this trade. I am sharing it with you because I have hit my self-imposed position limit.

When multiple markets exist for the same or equivalent stocks, it is possible to trade the differences in price between the various markets for risk-free profit. This trading strategy is known as arbitrage.
The following markets exist for the outcome of the presidential election and agree within a few inkles:
Will Barack Obama win the 2008 U.S. Election? http://home.inklingmarkets.com/stocks/42788/trades/new
Who will win the 2008 United States Presidential Election? http://home.inklingmarkets.com/markets/4071

A fourth market exists and this fourth market disagrees with the other three:
How many electoral college votes will Barack Obama receive? http://home.inklingmarkets.com/markets/12632
If you buy 10 shares of Yes/Barack Obama/Democratic Party from any of the first three, and add 10 shares each of 250, 250-259, 260-269 from the last, it will cost you $869.20 and pay out $1000 on November 5 regardless of outcome for a profit of $130.80 or 15.0%.
Note that as 270 electoral votes is the equivalent of victory in the presidential election, it is necessary to buy all three options below 270 to completely eliminate your risk.
