				<title>Health Care Reform Bill</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Blaze,

Are you a U.S. citizen?  The reason I ask is because you have just admitted the quality of care will worsen under Obama's plan.  I would think somebody who had coverage and used the system wouldn't want to see it destroyed. I don't think 90% should suffer to give 10% insurance coverage.  There are simpler ways to do it.


As for the meat inspectors, a couple thousand meat inspectors are not what is insuring safe meat.  A recall is extremely expensive.  It's in the economic interests ...]]></description>

				<title>Economic Stimulus Contract Should be expired at 100</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ nd, I think a reasonable rule of thumb is if the market is at 10 in order to get it to expire at 100 in the near future the contract needs to be written precisely in such a way you can irrefutably prove your point.

This contract is vague and it would be very unreasonable for the bosses here to go against general expectations on such a flimsy contract.

I wish these sorts of rules of thumbs were more explicitly stated.]]></description>

				<title>New Guy with a simple question</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ [quote=nmanus]Would the person buying the share also count toward volume? and when the seller buys it back, does this add /subtract or do nothing to the volume?
Thanks in advance[/quote]

Volume in trades doesn't illustrate how many "positive" shares are out there. 

Illustration:
1. A shorts one contract to B. Now A owns -1 and B owns 1
2. B sells one contract to A. Now A owns 0 and B owns 0

Based on the illustration above, volume is 2 - as two trades of two stocks take place.

Volu ...]]></description>

I'm now officially on hiatus until mid August. I'm taking the next 2-3 months to finish my Masters thesis, then heading to Europe until August. 

In an attempt to closeout contracts:
- Check the airtankers market, Boeing is getting the contract. Check the news.
- I have a bid of 19 contracts of 2010.REP.SENATE.42+ at 96.5%. I believe this is above true value, just trying to close my short ...]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ In light of Harry Reid's [url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/03/10/harry-reid-filibuster-rul_n_493474.html]recent comments[/url], could you post a contract on filibuster reform in the US Senate?  There might need to be two separate contracts, one on reducing the 60% requirement for cloture and one on reducing the delay that is required for cloture to "ripen."  Expiry should probably be set in mid 2011, since this is most likely to be done shortly after the new Senators take office in January ...]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ !! Yes, volatility is low.  It means the price steps between contracts in the Dow Close are large -- some days I would prefer 10 point steps instead of 25 point steps.
If you are watching the VIX you may want to think of using VXD which is a volatility index directly reflecting the Dow Industrials.
This may not be unusual: looking at the 5 year trace of the VXD shows that the majority of that time the VXD was in the range of the current value of 15.86.]]></description>

These contracts made more sense back before the 2008 election, at which point you could contract on both "If a Republican wins, will the national debt increase." and "If a Democrat wins, will the national debt increase."  When Obama won, all the "If a Republican..." contracts expired at 0.  The remaining contract group is therefore somewhat confusing, since the "if" clause in the proposition has already come true.  

It would be clear ...]]></description>

For those who are short losing positions, you'll be paying out 100.  I typically offer to sell those contracts at 99.3.  There is a 0.3 commission on contracts priced above 95, so you are buying back for 99.6 (including commissions), instead of 100.  It is a win-win for both of us when you close out losing positions as the month wra ...]]></description>

				<title>Clarity on Senate control contract</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Ha! I was thinking about Lieberman switching after the election too. [b]Intrade should definitely clarify this[/b], but it's a very long shot that it would actually matter. Even if the Republicans end up at 49 seats, and there's a disputed race, and Lieberman switched, he probably wouldn't actually change his party registration. He'd remain an Independent, but caucusing with the Republicans instead of Democrats. ]]></description>

				<title>Trade Execution Error</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Intrade's customer service department today agreed to reimburse me for the small loss due to this problem. As it turned out, this problem was actually due to the system design, not the trade execution.

The problem is that the 'order book' can differ from the order ticket and therefor the order executed. Prior to confirming the trade I had checked the order book rather than the ticket for the contract. My vision is not that great and the font on the book is larger & easier to read. ;>)

				<description><![CDATA[ [quote=Abacus]

So, I'll ask the question one more time:  John, can Intrade, or its employees, buy or sell contracts?[/quote]

I don't see a conflict of interest in the current trading aside from it being a means to generate trading fees down the road. The thing to remember here is that it looks like trading because of the way the market is set up. Any trade that is truly riskless (that is, no matter the outcome, the trade cannot lose money) can become an automated dynamic of the market with ...]]></description>

				<title>Patrick Kennedy's seat</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Since Kennedy has announced he is retiring from Congress I think his district should be added to the select districts already listed. I'm not sure of the number but there are only two.

Democrats outnumber Republicans by a large number in Rhode Island just as they do here in Massachusetts.  If Junior's seat is lost to the Republicans it will once more demonstrate how far the electorate has moved since Obama's election. (BTW, Scott Brown won Ted Kennedy's home district on Cape Cod.)
