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.

I am about as worried about as a whale is worried about being eaten by krill. I guess you don't know this guy or his first attempt at producing software?

i know of his software - me posting it was rather tongue in cheek - ps liked the response by the way

Scripophilist - 03 Nov 2005 20:04 - 5552 of 10502

Ok, I mis read your post, sorry.

I think it will be an interesting market to be honest. But it will take some time to sort the wheat from the chaff.

Anyone on the footie tonite

Side bolton are plying look awful and not enjoy the manchester weather - not a fan of siding with Bolton but 1.8 looks good value

Scripophilist - 03 Nov 2005 20:19 - 5554 of 10502

Will have a look at Bolton, I am the Borough / Dnipro match. Just playing with some new concepts but looking at the unders market at the moment, heding on the correct score market.

I've noticed a bot on the correct score market. Now I know there is one I may play with it one night.

the side boro are playing are the side that scored 5 or 6 against hibs if memory serves me right

Fundamentalist - 03 Nov 2005 20:25 - 5556 of 10502

Bolton 1-0 up :-)

bakko - 03 Nov 2005 20:26 - 5557 of 10502

On the Bolton game here.

Bolton has just gone 1 up having already missed a couple of early chances

Scripophilist - 03 Nov 2005 20:26 - 5558 of 10502

"the side boro are playing are the side that scored 5 or 6 against hibs if memory serves me right "

Thanks for that!

Fundamentalist - 03 Nov 2005 20:33 - 5559 of 10502

Is anyone watching the boro game - tempted to lay boro - any thoughts?

bakko - 03 Nov 2005 20:37 - 5560 of 10502

I thought boro had quite a strong lineup tonight

Fundamentalist - 03 Nov 2005 20:40 - 5561 of 10502

Boro 1-0 up just as i was typing in my lay price :-)

bakko - 03 Nov 2005 20:43 - 5562 of 10502

Lucky escape then. Had a few like that myself.

bakko - 03 Nov 2005 21:11 - 5563 of 10502

Boro 2-0

Scripophilist - 03 Nov 2005 21:13 - 5564 of 10502

3-0

Scripophilist - 03 Nov 2005 21:13 - 5565 of 10502

I'm finished for the night.

Scripophilist - 03 Nov 2005 21:14 - 5566 of 10502

As in, I have finished, not as in mullered!

Fundamentalist - 04 Nov 2005 16:30 - 5567 of 10502

If anyone thinks horse racing isnt bent then have a look at the stewards enquiry at Fontwell in the last - the fav past the post first having stopped the runner up not once but twice in the last furlong yet kept the race - if the fav had finished second what would have happened?
