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.

Went very slow from about 2.50 at my end - just about ok now but still wary

Scrip: "I'm not around again today but teams that are mis priced this morning are Man Utd, too little" - very good call

Some crazy scoring going on in the football Pth.

ptholden - 01 Oct 2005 17:14 - 4982 of 10502

Had a small back bet on the charlton draw, but left it on too long, should have greened up before spurs scored. Live and learn. First time I've lost on a footy match this week.

Fundamentalist - 02 Oct 2005 14:39 - 4983 of 10502

Anyone else getting betfair freezing on them this afternoon?

TPO - 02 Oct 2005 14:44 - 4984 of 10502

Yes Betfair seems to be hanging for 10 seconds, then working for a while, then hanging again. I'm giving up for now.

Fundamentalist - 02 Oct 2005 14:47 - 4985 of 10502

Fundamentalist - 02 Oct 2005 15:03 - 4986 of 10502

Arsenal still odds on at 0-0 with 17 mins to play!!!

Fundamentalist - 02 Oct 2005 15:12 - 4987 of 10502

Dil - 02 Oct 2005 15:37 - 4988 of 10502

anyone still got the Villa game "suspended" or is it a pc problem my end?

Scripophilist - 02 Oct 2005 15:38 - 4989 of 10502

Birmingham never looked like winning but Arsenal should have killed them off long before then.

Excellent volume on the French racing today.
