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.

A disappointing last over but no complaints with 327.

All green and will wait for decent trades to show up later.

Time to make a cuppa.

Just caught up with the record breaking one day run chase of 331 by NZ of over Aus.

Eng's total of 327. Surely looks pretty safe?

With a flat pitch and fast outfield, anything could happen!

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 10:16 - 6807 of 10502

2nd ball and a dropped catch!

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 10:21 - 6808 of 10502

Bak

just back from taking the dog for a walk

laid england at 1.25 - why is the price at 1.45 already?

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 10:24 - 6809 of 10502

Not quite sure but probably a combination of the dropped catch and already scored at 6+ an over in 2 overs.

Seems a bit generous to me.

Wicket down. Wish I'd backed it now!

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 10:25 - 6810 of 10502

Flintoff hasnt taken the field and is having his ankle strapped (may not be fit to bowl) - the reason for the drift!

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 10:26 - 6811 of 10502

Flintoff now on the field

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 10:29 - 6812 of 10502

Didn't know that as haven't got pictures here. Radio commentary only :-(

Should be getting Sky connected today...If they show up.

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:02 - 6813 of 10502

Pakn are already ahead of Eng after 10 over stage

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 11:03 - 6814 of 10502

England didnt actually get the greatest start in their innings

Freddie looks to be applying a bit more control, but the big worry so far is were bowling too many wides and the fielding has been awful

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:05 - 6815 of 10502

4 more overthrows!

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 11:06 - 6816 of 10502

cant believe we decided that strauss is a better fielder than pieterson

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:17 - 6817 of 10502

Freddie's getting a right hammering

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 11:19 - 6818 of 10502

He doesnt look fit at all

Wish i had greened up my lay from 1.25 so early

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:23 - 6819 of 10502

Could do with a wicket or 2 just to kill the momentum.

Doesn't look likely with Pakn playing like this.

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 11:27 - 6820 of 10502

got to try something different - worth giving Blackwell a bowl just for variety

Fundamentalist - 10 Dec 2005 11:42 - 6821 of 10502

Damn - had a lay in at 1.4 that didnt get filled

Still, game back on now

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:43 - 6822 of 10502

Another wicket quite quickly should make it interesting again

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:54 - 6823 of 10502

Steve...At this rate your 1.4 will soon be filled

bakko - 10 Dec 2005 11:58 - 6824 of 10502

Hope you got your 1.4
