All very good points. I had worked some years ago on a prediction market site which attempted to merge 3 mechanisms for gaining collective intelligence: Polling, paramutual betting, and full buy/sell market. It was motived by the fact that full blown market simulations are a steep learning curve for the non-investor, but that person has a valuable opinion nonetheless. Never did much with it.
