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.

Sorry I disappeared there. Decided to climb back into bed for last 30mins.

Seemed to have helped Eng just a touch.

Anyway, nice trading.

bakko - 15 Dec 2005 07:50 - 7026 of 10502

Now that I'm up there's a flurry of runs from the last over!

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 07:55 - 7027 of 10502

Just sold Pak runs again at 308 (made 23 points on first one)

bakko - 15 Dec 2005 08:01 - 7028 of 10502

Eng could do with a wicket at this point. Pakn in control once more

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 08:02 - 7029 of 10502

Indeed Bak

the danger with getting a wicket or two is that Inzi and Afridi likely to be the next two batters

bakko - 15 Dec 2005 08:12 - 7030 of 10502

Steve....Got to leave you now and will catch up with you later.

I'm hoping for a big batting collapse and Pakn out for under 250 by the time I get back on!

I must be still dreaming!!

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 08:16 - 7031 of 10502

Bak

anything under 300 from here will be good for England - my second sell of runs not looking to healthy :-(

catch you later

Scripophilist - 15 Dec 2005 09:19 - 7032 of 10502

I've just been offered free RUK coverage from Betfair. Anybody else been offered this?

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 09:27 - 7033 of 10502

Scrip

took the offer up last week :-)

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 09:28 - 7034 of 10502

Shocking display from England in the cricket

Only freddie appears to know how to bowl a yorker - the rest are just bowling in the slot

bakko - 15 Dec 2005 09:48 - 7035 of 10502

Just checked the score....350 for Pakn.

Game over again!

Steve...Hope you managed to get out of your last position.

Scrip... Got the same offer as well

Scripophilist - 15 Dec 2005 09:49 - 7036 of 10502

This is a test match score not a ODI score!

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 09:55 - 7037 of 10502

Bak

yep got out but gave up my profit from the earlier trade

have laid Pakn at 1.08 on the hope of a good start from England

Scrip, indeed though last year vs India 357 played 345 on this ground and England chased over 300 on their last game here. Also England bat along way down with Bell coming in as the supersub

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 09:55 - 7038 of 10502

re Racing UK, have been impressed with the coverage, much better than ATR imo

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 10:22 - 7039 of 10502

Liverpool game has just kicked off on BBC2

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 10:22 - 7040 of 10502

And Crouch scores after a couple of minutes

bakko - 15 Dec 2005 10:23 - 7041 of 10502

Was about to get it up on Betangel and they score!

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 10:27 - 7042 of 10502

Ditto bak - just opened up the screen as it was suspended lol

bakko - 15 Dec 2005 10:50 - 7043 of 10502

Can't see Eng getting near Pakn total.

Lumped on at 1.1 and will probably let it ride.

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2005 10:51 - 7044 of 10502

Bak

just laid at 1.06 on the wicket :-)
