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.

agree scrip, i couldnt back them at 1.43 against anyone currently though they appear a different side in europe and anderlecht are poor and have nothing left to play for - 0-0 maybe?

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:05 - 5471 of 10502

Get in - Porto have gone 1-0 up in Milan :-)

Scripophilist - 01 Nov 2005 20:08 - 5472 of 10502

Found this the other day. Makes annoying noises each time a goal is scored.

Chelsea 1-0 down

bakko - 01 Nov 2005 20:16 - 5474 of 10502

Bit of a softish goal to give away

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:18 - 5475 of 10502

Chelsea had been inviting them on by sitting very deep - hadnt backed chelsea, just trying to decide whether to back chelsea or lay betis

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:21 - 5476 of 10502

Mickey mousers 1-0 up

Scripophilist - 01 Nov 2005 20:23 - 5477 of 10502

Don't you just sense that Chelsea are about to hit a bad patch?

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:26 - 5478 of 10502

Lets hope so scrip :-)

bakko - 01 Nov 2005 20:27 - 5479 of 10502

For my sake I hope its not tonight as sitting on a small loss as only slapped on a small amount. Will try to trade out if Chelsea don't threaten too much.

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:28 - 5480 of 10502

Interesting refereeing - two players now booked for dissent but Lampard not booked for a studs up sliding tackle

Scripophilist - 01 Nov 2005 20:29 - 5481 of 10502

Bakko, Plenty of time left.

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:29 - 5482 of 10502

Bakko

surely the self confessed "special one" will be able to turn it round at half time - starting with removing Gudjohnsen from the fray lol

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:34 - 5483 of 10502

Should have been 2-0 - will they regret that miss?

Aristo - 01 Nov 2005 20:34 - 5484 of 10502

Backed Chelsea, Real and Lyon (large) clean on the latter two but I've now learnt not to try and trade 3 matches in 1 go! Far too scary

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:35 - 5485 of 10502

Aristo

Lyon was scary to start as well no doubt, 1-0 down early now 2-1 up

bakko - 01 Nov 2005 20:36 - 5486 of 10502

Already reduced some of the liability. If that last Betis chance had gone in I'd have been sitting on a profit!

Aristo - 01 Nov 2005 20:37 - 5487 of 10502

Gonna stick to one match at a time from here on! Safe now but hard work keeping tabs. Will be happy if Chels bring one back!

Fundamentalist - 01 Nov 2005 20:49 - 5488 of 10502

Drogba and Wright Phillips for Gudjohnsen and Cole

bakko - 01 Nov 2005 21:04 - 5489 of 10502

Just finished trading out of my Betis loss position. It's now showing a very healthy +0.28p
