How to profit from Betting Exchanges (BEX)     

Scripophilist - 27 Oct 2004 23:40

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.

Not long started Steve, not too bad so far. Arsenal must come in tonight I think.

Diego - 25 Apr 2005 18:37 - 2439 of 10502

Harlosh, at 1.55 I think it's a bit skimpish. I was rather thinking of putting an order at around 1.8 but I bet they score in the first minute.

Diego

tend to agree the price is a bit skinny though theoretically Arsenal will desperately want to win to all but guarantee 2nd place and delay chelseas party a while longer (you may have to wait till next week for your money scrip lol) that said Henry and Ljundberg are still both out and campbell only likely to make the bench

John

when we meeting up for a beer?

Harlosh - 25 Apr 2005 18:57 - 2441 of 10502

Diego,

I agree. I too will wait I think for a better price but you do of course risk an early goal. It's swings and roundabouts I think.

Harlosh - 25 Apr 2005 18:58 - 2442 of 10502

bakko,

Are you there. Still up for a beer with Steve and myself?

Fundamentalist - 25 Apr 2005 20:03 - 2443 of 10502

Oh dear Jose

Fundamentalist - 25 Apr 2005 20:24 - 2444 of 10502

Thatll teach you all to wait for 1.8 - off to green up

Just backed Spurs at 32, for a laugh

Scripophilist - 25 Apr 2005 21:12 - 2446 of 10502

I had Arsenal down for a 1-0 before the off.

Fundamentalist - 25 Apr 2005 21:13 - 2447 of 10502

Good to see you wasting your money jeffie lol

bakko - 25 Apr 2005 21:23 - 2448 of 10502

Evening Guys,

Just switched on to find that someone's doing OK with Arsenal so well done Fundy.

Harlosh and Fundy, I'm still OK with night out so let's sort out a date.


Fundamentalist - 25 Apr 2005 21:28 - 2449 of 10502

Cheers bakko

tuesdays/wednesdays are best for me but pretty flexible


senderos misses a sitter

jeffmack - 25 Apr 2005 21:36 - 2450 of 10502

Come on Spurs

Fundamentalist - 25 Apr 2005 21:36 - 2451 of 10502

How have we not added a second in the last 5 minutes - 3 real good chances

jeffmack - 25 Apr 2005 21:40 - 2452 of 10502

spurs had more corners than gunners

Harlosh - 25 Apr 2005 21:45 - 2453 of 10502

Had to go out so missed backing Arsenal after all.

Fundy/bakko, how about next Wednesday then, the 4th.

bakko - 25 Apr 2005 21:45 - 2454 of 10502

Fundy,

Midweek is OK with me as well.

How about Tues/Weds next week or week after?

bakko - 25 Apr 2005 21:47 - 2455 of 10502

Weds, 4th sounds good to me.

jeffmack - 25 Apr 2005 21:47 - 2456 of 10502

000000h lucky arsenal

Fundamentalist - 25 Apr 2005 21:48 - 2457 of 10502

Weds 4th is fine by me
