How to profit from Betting Exchanges (BEX)     

Scripophilist - 27 Oct 2004 23:40


ladder.gifBA_Logo.gif


How would you like to trade a market where you get large regular price swings every 10 minutes in the afternoon, seven days a week. A
market where all prices are set purely by supply and demand, few transaction costs, no middle men and you only pay commission if you win? Where you can freely act as a market maker and where you have direct market access and where you can create a spread for others to take?

Betfair has revolutionised the betting market and created an open platform for exchanging risk on sports events. This market is now viewed much more like a traditional financial risk market than an old fashioned betting market. Smart users have realised that there are huge opportunities on Betfair because they can buy and sell risk in much the same way they would in a normal financial market but without the burden of cost or the restricted access that is usually associated with traditional financial markets.

You ramping horses again tabby ???

Got well beat Dil

tabasco - 27 Jan 2010 16:17 - 10416 of 10502

Hold my hands upbut 7.2 in running would have still given small profit

I was lucky again there Jeff Big question isdo I take the profitsell and hold some? or do I go all on? what would you do Jeff?

tabasco - 20 Apr 2010 12:06 - 10419 of 10502

BTW JeffI forgot to tell youMr. Big came out next time on the 19th Feb. and won easily at the rewarding odds of 15/2...like I told youit was rated to winunfortunately horses are not machinesand sometimes do not run up to formI post up horses that have the capability at the ratingand are good valueall part of being a lucky thicko

ptholden - 20 Apr 2010 18:15 - 10420 of 10502

Well, that's useful, a horse that wins with hindsight, must try it some time.

How about Spurs to beat Chelsea? I understand they have a good chance, very attractive odds.

tabasco - 20 Apr 2010 20:25 - 10421 of 10502

Well Peterfor the second time onlyI have de-squelched you if there is such a word?the very first time was to see if you had actually learnt to converse in a reasonable mannerand without your normal superior condescending and very irritating speeches
I believe you are in the Merchant Navy and think it necessary to show authority in the weirdest wayI could be wrong?if you behave in your place of workin such a mannerI cant see you getting a great deal of respect from your fellow men or womenshame reallyyour good friend Cynic has a far greater understanding on how to conduct himself
Anyway thats just Tabascos take on you for what it is worth
As this is my specialist subject and you have once again been a little unkindand of course misunderstood my postI thought it only fair to point out your mistake
The horse in question.Mr Big[what a huge coincidence]was listed in my special book
I sometimes share info on the racing threadgiving readers the chance to evaluate my opinion of a horses chance compared to pricesomething others pay good money for
To simplifyI do odds compiling and use trade paper tissues to draw comparisons
Now check post 10411...you will notice on the 27th of January I advised Jeff to look at Mr Bigas it had more than a good chanceand was extremely good value at the currant oddsunfortunately it run a stinker and was pulled upJeff took the piss a littleand I have no time for people that throw things in your facewhen in fact I was trying to be helpfulbut as you knowI have Rhino skin
The Horse was turned out again on the 19th of Februaryand it duly obliged at a good price as expected by meI couldnt help but feel a little smugand I did have it off
So you seeno hindsight was involvedjust a little patience
Now if you want to be liked a little more in lifetry and conduct yourself with a little
more decorumand you never knowa few more on here might get to like you
I will read your replyif you write one
If there is a change in your attitude there will be a change in mineif not votre choix

ptholden - 20 Apr 2010 21:06 - 10422 of 10502

Tabby, I think you need to learn how to chill(i) just a little, I was merely pulling your chain, just a little fun at your expense (or perhaps even mine).

With regard to wishing to be liked by other posters, I'm afraid I don't really care. My rationale for signing up to a financial BB was to learn from those more experienced than I and eventually to share my own knowledge (albeit limited) in return. Surprisingly (to you?) I have made quite a few friends over the years through the good offices of AM, so I guess some of the time I must have been doing something right. As I am sure you will have noticed, I post sparingly these days, my life does not revolve around a financial BB. For some reason (which I must admit I don't fully understand) I am sufficiently well respected by friends and work colleagues alike not to worry about upsetting the odd character on AM. I will also admit that despite the MDX debacle I still read your posts although not an avid reader you understand.

In summary, stop taking me so seriously and if you wish proof of the respect in which I am held in the workplace, check the 2004 New Year Honour's List :-)

jeffmack - 20 Apr 2010 22:04 - 10423 of 10502

Shame you didnt mention it on 19th Feb Tabby

tabasco - 20 Apr 2010 22:11 - 10424 of 10502

Would that be Holden, Peter Timothy, 1st Offr, R Fleet Auxiliaryif so I congratulate you
Couple of points I would like to highlight in your reply[1] you should care about being liked by other posterseverybody needs to be liked/lovedthe alternative aint great! [2] I know you are very knowledgeable and articulatebut Jesus you cant go round talking to people as if they dont know their alphabetlisten a thicko like me has mixed with Lords and LadiesCelebritiesbut my best friend is a Lorry drivernone of them have ever spoken in the manner you do on herethe French Connection for oneand me for twoand plenty more you know!!! You have called me a racist amongst other thingsa lot of our friends found that funny[3] and most surprisingyou seem to think I am not chilledPeter there is no one on this planet that is as chilled as meread my postsI play all my lifeI laugh all my lifeI take the piss out of myselfmy friend and helper Caysend mail and Giggle like 10 year olds all daybelieve me Im chilledI just like fairness in all walks of lifeI ruffled a few feathers to get a handle on who I could trust on these BBsI think you will find most now know it was tongue-in-cheek and for a purposeI now know all the gang membersjob donewhilst we will never see eye to eyeand you say some outrageous things I have a little more respect for youit is just that I can tell someone to fcuk off.and get away with itsomehow it dont work with you?anyway thumb round thumb
