If you are an American (which may not be the case based on your handle), it would be technically against the law to do so.

Intrade is considered internet based gambling and thus is forbidden to US Citizens

Many thousands do it regardless but if one fine day the Goverment decides to crack down, Intrade will not hesitate ONE MINUTE to share all the US Citizen names

Ah. Thanks. I read through the sign up blurb pretty carefully, and don’t think they even mention that there.

NEGATIVE. Intrade is different as the house does not set the odds ,, all wagers are between members.. That is why Intrade accepts US based accounts.
