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.

I'm actually picking on two horses in each race knowing that if one drifts the other should come in. I'm finding it is helping my focus.

All green on the 17:20 so only one race left for a clean sweep.

Hi Folks,
Looks like a few of you are having fun with the horses! Well done.
Recently got back from hols and still knackered from the jetlag.
Apart from English teams playing crap in Europe, it doesn't seem like I've missed too much

Hi bakko welcome back
John - have a good weekend - looks like im now going to haydock with sputnik and steph - should be good fun
Scrip - the only reason i asked is it is rare to hear you having a loss on a line so often, especially on a winning day
made 2 ticks on the 5.30 then called it a day - been a very good one on here and a shocker on the mkts

"rare to hear you having a loss on a line so often"
Came in thick and fast in the afternoon. Pretty much every other race. I think because I had two horses on the go at the same time. I still recommend only one.

i tried 2 at a time for a couple of days and gave up - i was exposed for a huge loss because i layed on the wrong line when trying to lay off - havent done more than one line since

Thank you Hisar, but it looked a bit dodgy near the end. Fluff and Puff ran well.
An excellent day. But obviously a day when the wind was behind me.
It's not often when you win on 20 out of 20 races. So I'll enjoy it before I give some of it back tomorrow!!

Something going horribly right at the moment. No mistakes today so 27 races in a row without a loss.
