Sounds about right to me
Any of y'all do forex?
@Deleted User I've looked into it a few times, I haven't really done anything yes but I have a forex trading account with TD Ameritrade
Do you trade forex at all?
It's something I would like to learn more about
No I don't, but I'd like to. It seems very opportune
This week this bull market (3/9/09 start date) will become the longest bull run ever over the last 100 years
The S&P has gained 322% over that tome period. The third largest gain during a bull market
What’s the #1 and #2 largest gains?
@Tanner - SC the dot com bubble in the 90’s followed by the pre Great Depression period in the 20’s
What % gain were they?
Anyone betting with liberals and taking their money?
You can buy shares of Trump still being president at end of 2019 for $0.65 per share. If you’re right, you collect $1.00 per share. Profit of 53.8%.
Totally legal, they’ll even send you a form 1099-MISC for your earnings at the end of the year.

wow
Bet $36, win $100, profit $64 or 278%.
This isn't the forum...by that I mean: This strategy isn't as effective as it could be. One should really share this in libtard forums so they push the pot up making for windfall profits.
@Tanner - SC I did that a lot in 2016. Some of those bets, like the "Impeached in first term" stuff is really far out. I'll look to jump into some of the midterm stuff though.
@Tanner - SC They still have a cap of 850$ per bet, right?
They most likely still have the bet limit.
@Tanner - SC the site says it has no fees on deposits but 5% withdrawal fee. Does this mean there are no fees on the bets themselves?
Example: bet $5.00 that GOP controls House after 2018. $5.00 / $0.36 = 13.89 shares. Acquire $13.89 if GOP controls House, so my total balance = $5 + $13.89 = $18.89. This balance stays at $18.89, and I can add more, but if I withdraw it I pay 5% x $18.89 = $0.94.
Is that correct?
Total balance = $13.89. If you withdraw, you pay 5% on that.
Oh, right. Thanks for that correction.
@ThisIsChris remember, you can for FOR “yes” and AGAINST “no”, thereby totaling twice the bet limit.
I had a blast doing that in 2016. FOR trump, AGAINST Hillary, FOR a male winning, AGAINST a female winning, FOR the gop, AGAINST the DNC. Kept stacking up so many different variations on the same that I made enough to buy a car afterwards.
@Tanner - SC PredictIt uses a credit card for funding; what is typically used for withdrawals?
@Ben - OH I think withdrawal is an ACH transfer to bank account. I’d have to check my records to be sure.
@Ben - OH @Tanner - SC in 2016 it was a check mailed to house
I learned that Florida is trying to restore the rights of felons to vote just now when I was perusing this site
It was never even in the news. A year ago, a guy approached me with a petition about it, but I didn't think twice
Today begins the first day of studying for the CFA 1. Wish me luck, this test ruins lives.

level 1 is not hard
level 2 is hard
and level 3 is easier than level 2 from what ive heard
@ophiuchus good luck man, I look forward to hearing how it goes.
