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.

Just backed NZ at 2.4

Only concern is that NZ dont need to win just keep the score down whereas GB are desperate however with Stacey Johns in their side id have made it even the two.

also backed Argentina in Scotland match odds and handicap in the Union (on sky 960)

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 18:03 - 5710 of 10502

Just turned my position round onto Scotland and got back some of my losses

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 18:23 - 5711 of 10502

GB have scored early

WOODIE - 12 Nov 2005 18:29 - 5712 of 10502

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 18:35 - 5713 of 10502

WOODIE - 12 Nov 2005 18:42 - 5714 of 10502

Steve,

Sorry I didn't realise you may have taken the dog out this am so went to bed - knackered. Been out since this morning and just got in.

Bak,

Thanks for the thingymajig. I'll try it out.

Wot no comment on the England victory? That was one hell of a match, the most competitive friendly I think I have ever seen. Really enjoyed that.

If the defence can be firmed up a bit the rest of the field looks ok. Gerrard in the centre with Beckham firing in crosses as well looks awsome. I think Crouchie isn't a great player but could be really useful for causing problems.

Harlosh - 12 Nov 2005 20:50 - 5717 of 10502

Scrip, as part Scot, I declined to comment!

Harlosh - 12 Nov 2005 21:20 - 5718 of 10502

You around Steve??

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 21:21 - 5719 of 10502

Hi John

Yes just back at the screen - been hanging pictures and mirrors etc.

Off to bed soon, alarm set for 4am for the cricket and golf

Harlosh - 12 Nov 2005 21:23 - 5720 of 10502

Gonna try Bak's tip on 75 mins in the France/Germay game if they are still 0-0. Know what I mean?

Harlosh - 12 Nov 2005 21:24 - 5721 of 10502

Thanks to you and Bak for another smashing night, by the way.

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 21:31 - 5722 of 10502

John

have turned betfair off - my head is shot to pieces - had a fair afternoon on the rugby union but took a hit on the league. Been looking at the golf stats for tonight and cant work out whether there is any value in Woods so have given up!!!

Have checked the diary and am ok for the 9th December so have pencilled it in

Harlosh - 12 Nov 2005 21:33 - 5723 of 10502

Good. Look forward to it.

Harlosh - 12 Nov 2005 21:46 - 5724 of 10502

Still 1.32 to lay with 3 mins to go

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 21:55 - 5725 of 10502

Nice one John

well done mate

If you were still planning on coming over one day next week, any of tuesday, wednesday or thursday are fine by me

Fundamentalist - 12 Nov 2005 22:06 - 5726 of 10502

Tomorrow should be a good day for trading the horses - a good card at Cheltenham and also some good Irish racing at Navan including Moscow Flyers seasonal return - should be plenty of volume about.


Edward (compoundup) - with regard to Trabolgan, it appears he is not going to run in the betfair chase next week due to the ground being too soft and is going to be aimed straight at the Hennesy (where he should have a cracking chance)

"Adding that Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Chase winner Juveigneur would not go to Newbury, Henderson - who hopes stable jockey Mick Fitzgerald will be fit to take the mount - said: "Trabolgan will go to Newbury.

We couldn't get Juveigneur ready to run in the Hennessy first time, but Trabolgan will get himself ready and will be ready. The ground at Haydock could be soft or heavy, which wouldn't suit him, and the Hennessy looks like his one opportunity of running in a handicap, although of course if he gets beat he might only have 10st 7lb somewhere next time!"
