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.

Stuart

well done

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 12:45 - 1814 of 10502

stuart well done - One addition to the London course I did add was the money management section but experiance tells me that the only real way to learn is through experiance.

Harlosh - 12 Mar 2005 12:47 - 1815 of 10502

A lesson we all learn I think.

Harlosh - 12 Mar 2005 12:50 - 1816 of 10502

Can't believe we only have two English matches today and a few hours apart too.

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 12:51 - 1817 of 10502

Yes, Looking forward to Southampton putting United out of the cup!

Harlosh - 12 Mar 2005 12:53 - 1818 of 10502

After the performance of Uniteds last two games I wouldn't be surprised but I bet your not putting your money on it eh Scrip?

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 12:56 - 1819 of 10502

United should be priced around 1.66 and I think they are around 1.60 at the moment. Smells like a draw to me to be honest. Man U can't afford to lose but are certainly the stronger side.

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 13:01 - 1820 of 10502

This match deserves 10/10 for artisitic merit.

Fundamentalist - 12 Mar 2005 14:11 - 1821 of 10502

Freddie Ljundgberg - miss of the season !!!!!!

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 14:11 - 1822 of 10502

KANU!

Oh sorry, It was Freddie!

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 14:17 - 1823 of 10502

No goal was trading at a very low price. Lots of happy backers out there!!

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 18:11 - 1824 of 10502

Southampton being totally outclassed. Giving Man U too much space and defending is embarassing. Maybe total goals market is the only one to trade here!!

TPO - 12 Mar 2005 18:15 - 1825 of 10502

I was scalping the Man U match odds using a make market concept of backing first at the lay price and waiting for the fill before laying. The second time I did it, ManU scored, so rather than 1% I scalped 15% :-) I'm glad I bothered to boot-up the laptop now!

Scripophilist - 12 Mar 2005 18:23 - 1826 of 10502

Thats the way to do it!

An interesting scenario here is if Man U get a good draw for the semi final. Southampton have to play Man U on the last day of the season so will they rest their players on the last day of the season against a team that could need to win to stay up?

TPO - 12 Mar 2005 21:31 - 1829 of 10502

Scrip, Lazio v Inter was 1-1 at 9:11pm (76 mins into the game I reckon) and was priced as 1.71 for the draw. That seemed a bit high to me, what do you think? Anyway, I took the trade and got anyway with it as I took 34% out in eight mins.

Harlosh - 13 Mar 2005 14:00 - 1830 of 10502

That's also the way to do it!
