Is this still going? Haven't seen anyone get paid

I made a portfolio with a lot of my markets. This can be used to calibrate my markets if they are biased on average towards YES or NO.

Do good faith limit orders count? (You still get the trader bonus, but that shouldn't matter for calibration purposes)

done, yours are some of the most amusing markets on this platform

You have 200+ open markets. Seems a tad low.

 Ok, please explain to me why they are useful. Your defense on Discord was that "you trust yourself more than those other market creators" which obviously is nonsense.

"What there is something wrong with is the fact that you made dozens of duplicate markets that serve no practical purpose."

 "Therefore I think the way trader bonuses add profit in leagues may be reworked." I don't see why paying people to bet on your markets should count any less so long as the bets are good faith, unless you think even completely organic market activity shouldn't be counted, which I'm personally indifferent to.

I never said there was anything wrong with this idea. Paying people mana to trade on your open markets is okay, as it does calibrate them, which is helpful. However, it is also a problem with leagues because basically people with more mana can pay and convert their mana on hand into leagues profits, which kind of ruins the point of leagues. Therefore I think the way trader bonuses add profit in leagues may be reworked.

 there's nothing wrong with "stuff like this", it's actually really good since it makes markets more calibrated.

 I wouldn't be surprised if trader bonuses are eventually removed from Leagues because of stuff like this. 

Or at least trader bonuses be reworked to only be given to approved markets/markets rated as good.

 Ah okay. It was my initial understanding that the good faith criteria would preclude placing bets of 1 mana

 You decide yourself how much you want to bet, and then you also get any potential profits from making the bet, and you get to practice your betting skills, all while being paid to do it. 

I'm looking to have my markets be more calibrated. One way to do this is to seek out good faith trading activity, which is my goal with this market.

597 to the first 5 people that place a good faith bet in each of my open markets.

Remember that the trades have to be good faith, and not just for the purposes of claiming the bounty.
