I opened two accounts on a certain prediction market platform for the New Year, mainly aiming to accumulate trading volume to qualify for short-selling. It sounds good, but in practice, I encountered many problems. First, although there are no transaction fees on the platform, the order book depth of the prediction market itself is limited, and the bid-ask spreads for many trading pairs are quite large. To achieve truly lossless trading, careful strategy design and repeated testing are required—something that’s really too troublesome for someone lazy like me. After weighing the pros and cons, I think maintaining two accounts is already quite a hassle, and pushing further would be not worth it. So, the current plan is a reasonable balance point for me.
