How to profit from Betting Exchanges (BEX)

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.

Too late!

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 20:55 - 4599 of 10502

1-1 No way!

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 20:55 - 4600 of 10502

Did they unsuspend the market?

Fundamentalist - 14 Sep 2005 20:56 - 4601 of 10502

Question is - do I go in for a second bite of the cherry now its 1-1 or am i getting greedy?

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 20:56 - 4602 of 10502

I am having one of those, the only exposure I have is coming in evenings!! LOL!

Fundamentalist - 14 Sep 2005 20:57 - 4603 of 10502

Yep - for about 30 seconds and thankfully i got out at 1.23 :-)

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 20:57 - 4604 of 10502

Phew, I am on the Man U match at the moment so not actively monitoring the Arsenal match. Wish I was then I could have exited my position.

bakko - 14 Sep 2005 21:06 - 4605 of 10502

Just gone green on the Barca game

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 21:07 - 4606 of 10502

Rooney is such a complete and utter prat. If he doesn't get his attitude sorted he is going to implode.

Bugz - 14 Sep 2005 21:22 - 4607 of 10502

Evening lads. First time I've looked at these betting exchanges. TOTAL BEGINNER!

Question: If I lay Turin, do I collect if there is a draw?

Fundamentalist - 14 Sep 2005 21:24 - 4608 of 10502

Yes

you collect as long as Turin dont win

Fundamentalist - 14 Sep 2005 21:25 - 4609 of 10502

Anyone got several lengths of strong rope - could be needed at highbury tonite!!!!!

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 21:26 - 4610 of 10502

Arsenal have played so badly I have managed to completely trade out of my liability on the draw.

bakko - 14 Sep 2005 21:26 - 4611 of 10502

Bugz, Yes but Juve are 2-0 up with 10mins to go. Not a good idea to lay them

Bugz - 14 Sep 2005 21:26 - 4612 of 10502

I'm confused.....

Scripophilist - 14 Sep 2005 21:26 - 4613 of 10502

Arsenal appear to be a fading force IMO.

Piptrader - 14 Sep 2005 21:26 - 4614 of 10502

Welcome Bugz. But watch it, there's the odd lady on this thread, although perhaps I'd better rephrase that...:-)

Fundamentalist - 14 Sep 2005 21:26 - 4615 of 10502

First game of club football ive watched this season - no rush for the next one

now when does the cricket tour to Pakistan start?

bakko - 14 Sep 2005 21:28 - 4616 of 10502

Its now 2-1 to Juve

Fundamentalist - 14 Sep 2005 21:28 - 4617 of 10502

So nowadays you get sent off for raising your foot with your first foul, but nothing happens for cracking a guy with the elbow when on a yellow - good to see that the consistency is still there lol
