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.

Woods misses good birdie chance

campbell makes up and down from back of 13

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 22:42 - 3519 of 10502

Woods hits to 5 ft at the par 3

I always find it curious to trade with the time delays. Esp when using some automation. You can't confirm the counter bet till the first is filled. When you are used to horse racing and ten million prices changes a second its a curious feeling.

A dam moth in here at moment biggest thing I have seen in years!

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 22:44 - 3522 of 10502

Just pondering my next position. Just can't resist the temptation to trade.

kernow - 19 Jun 2005 22:48 - 3523 of 10502

sitting on my hands is the most difficult bit.

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 22:50 - 3524 of 10502

Woods makes birdie - now only 2 back

hes now 3 under for the last 6 holes - unbelieveable on this course

campbell has hit to about 8 ft at next

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 22:50 - 3525 of 10502

My advice is to just sit and wait for quality positions.

Like not having a punt on Garcia hoping for a mess up by the leaders! Green on Campbell but not much on Woods.

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 22:51 - 3526 of 10502

Loads of guys on the BF forum seemed to have laid Campbell. Only three holes left for Woods to put the real pressure on.

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 22:52 - 3527 of 10502

Campbell gone very short having hit it close - anyone gambling (sorry trading) on whether he'll hole it?

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 22:52 - 3528 of 10502

Nah

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 23:00 - 3529 of 10502

Campbell misses birdie putt and finds sand at par 3 - odds from 1.35 to 1.8 in 2 shots

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 23:03 - 3530 of 10502

Woods makes bogey at 16

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 23:06 - 3531 of 10502

Campbell makes great save at 15

3 ahead with 3 to play - its his to lose now

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 23:09 - 3532 of 10502

I'll be pleased if Campbell does win. I've left some money to run on him.

kernow - 19 Jun 2005 23:11 - 3533 of 10502

Campbell or Woods will do for me now.

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 23:13 - 3534 of 10502

You are safe Kernow.

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 23:13 - 3535 of 10502

woods bogeys 17 :-)

Scripophilist - 19 Jun 2005 23:15 - 3536 of 10502

200k @ 1.08 for Campbell. Somebody trying to sweep money up by the look of it.

Fundamentalist - 19 Jun 2005 23:18 - 3537 of 10502

campbell likely to bogey 16 - just realised i need him to be +1 for last 3 holes for my winning score bet
