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.

Fergie should have signed the benfica eagle. Its got a better temperament than ronaldo ;~)

oh dear man u

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:20 - 6733 of 10502

greened up too early :-(

still think there will be more goals in this game - would also expect goals in the other game in the group if this stays 2-1

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:21 - 6734 of 10502

Very very lucky Silvestre

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:21 - 6735 of 10502

Benefica traded at 19.0 when behind, United are 4.5 - can anyone please explain

bakko - 07 Dec 2005 20:30 - 6736 of 10502

Just scalped a few on Benfica.

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:32 - 6737 of 10502

Bak

likewise, the price after the goal was plain wrong compared to how the game was going - got 20 more ticks :-)

be interesting to see if the hairdrier has any impact at half time and whether Rooney and the horse bother turning up for the second half (they didnt for the first)

bakko - 07 Dec 2005 20:35 - 6738 of 10502

You got 10 more ticks than I managed to get.

Wished I'd held on for 2mins longer as saw it drop very quickly as soon as I got out.

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:37 - 6739 of 10502

I backed at 2.1 - the price just seemed wrong to me - pure instinct

would want to be a benefica backer for first 10-15 mins of second half

Henry missed a pen for Arsenal

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:40 - 6740 of 10502

Udinese have set their stall out for 0-0 vs Barca (missing most of their stars). Barca have hit the woodwork twice in the first half and are a big price at 3.8, the draw is already almost even money! may look to lay for the first ten mins of the half

bakko - 07 Dec 2005 20:45 - 6741 of 10502

Steve

Odds seem to be all over the place tonight!

Udinese v Barce Draw odds already at evens. Not normally at this point till around 70mins!! Whats going on!

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 20:50 - 6742 of 10502

Udinese only need a draw to qualify, Barca resting all their stars, Udinese playing for 0-0, not even really trying to hit barca on the break - question is to barca have enough quality (tonight) to break them down - theyve already hit woodwork twice so a fair chance

Must get a bigger tv if im going to try and watch 4 games at once on multi view!!!

sealed - 07 Dec 2005 21:01 - 6743 of 10502

Is it fallout from the mad Harrys market? Lots of punters trying to recover losses? It makes no sense that 7.2m has been placed so far on the Man U match.

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 21:03 - 6744 of 10502

Barca just missed a sitter

Reyes stretchered off for Arsenal - doesnt look good

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 21:07 - 6745 of 10502

Udinese just brought another defender on

playing a dangerous game looking for 0-0

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 21:09 - 6746 of 10502

small bet Barca, small bet Arsenal (Van Persie just come on)

bakko - 07 Dec 2005 21:09 - 6747 of 10502

Just stuck some of my Benfica profits on ManU

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 21:11 - 6748 of 10502

Man Utd only need a draw to qualify now that Villareal are 1-0 up

bakko - 07 Dec 2005 21:13 - 6749 of 10502

ManU given a small lifeline with Villarreal going 1-0. But they need to score!

Fundamentalist - 07 Dec 2005 21:16 - 6750 of 10502

you get the feeling a goal is coming - just not quite sure at which end, if United dont score, could see them getting caught on the break
