Are you regularly paying out on odds that you knew so well beforehand? Nope. So why should we listen to you?

YOU should listen to Intrade since your judgement is likely notsogood. I think you'd be better off listening to me, but I'm not out to convince you of that; I don't care.

I think my judgment and analysis is better than conventional wisdom, therefore I should listen to me.

The thing about the wisdom of crowds is that crowds are very often wrong, for very good reasons which the theory addresses. There are many caveats when applying the wisdom of crowds to the real world, and you seem to be ignoring them and ignorant of them.
