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.

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.

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

Birmingham never looked like winning but Arsenal should have killed them off long before then.
Excellent volume on the French racing today.

Was scalping ticks on Chelsea when they scored their third goal. Nice to get 'caught' the right way round for a change.
All green now.

Chelsea priced at only 1.20 now to win the Premiership and its only the 2nd day of October. Can ever remember seeing in 20 years a price this early as short as that for the top flight league.
