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.

Were you watching the 1pm - horse traded at 1.03 only had last to jump and ran out through the wing

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:13 - 6228 of 10502

I was, another classic moment. Though it looked a little nervous on the prior jump.

Still heavy snow at Wolverhamption I can't see the meet continuing at the moment, can you?

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:13 - 6229 of 10502

I grabbed the graph for later analysis.

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:15 - 6230 of 10502

I was just thinking, what do you think will happen at 13:20? I can imagine people trading elsewhere in the world not knowing that there is heavy snow in the West Midlands.

Scrip

should continue - its an all weather track!!!!! seriously think they will struggle if it continues

very strange race that, Sword lady one of the 2 favs made a hue blunder early on and never travelled afterwards, the other fav was going well then run out about 4 from home and then the third fav with the race at its mercy runs out through the wing of the last fence - a contrarian traders dream !!!

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 13:18 - 6232 of 10502

doesnt look a great race so ive moved onto the 1.30 to see if there is much movement in the 1.3 shot

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 13:21 - 6233 of 10502

do you get the feeling snow wolf has been backed into favouritism for another reason than form :-)

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:24 - 6234 of 10502

I would have thought most would be laying snow wolf. Or perhaps looking to oppose clearing sky?

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 13:25 - 6235 of 10502

gonna be one of them days lol

bit of a gamble on majestical

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:27 - 6236 of 10502

Surely this snow is going to throw the race wide open? Horses and jockeys won't be able to see a thing!

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 13:28 - 6237 of 10502

Spot on - there again i think it was already wide open!!!

Be a brave man who trys to bet in running

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 13:30 - 6238 of 10502

Moscow Flyer pulled out of saturdays tingle creek at sandown

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:32 - 6239 of 10502

Looks like you have been very unlucky Steve.

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 13:47 - 6240 of 10502

cant believe they let the leader get away so easy - certainly cost mine the race but didnt cost me much as my trading profit all but covered my bet

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 13:59 - 6241 of 10502

Had a good start but haven't been able to trading much since.

Scripophilist - 28 Nov 2005 14:10 - 6242 of 10502

60-1 winner in the 2nd at Wolves

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 14:14 - 6243 of 10502

Patterns on Swords looked a bit suspect at Southwell - huge drifter to big money before the off, a horse that needs to run up with the pace, with a plum inside draw didnt come out of the stalls at all and from the back of the race had to come all the way round on the wide outside - just wish id left my lay running :-(

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 14:25 - 6244 of 10502

Betfair crashed at my end - anyone else got probs?

WOODIE - 28 Nov 2005 14:34 - 6245 of 10502

fundy mines working fine at the mo

Fundamentalist - 28 Nov 2005 14:35 - 6246 of 10502

Cant get into the site at all either direct or via betangel - everything else on my machine working fine - very strange
