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.

Tell me about it!!!

LOL. Always end up f&*king up when I bet on my own bloody team.......

Always say I wont, and always end up doing it!!!!!!

I know Bak but I only had a relatively small profit so I was hoping to max it up by laying the draw. Didn't work though!

bakko - 03 Jan 2006 21:55 - 7524 of 10502

End of a pretty poor game although 2nd half was slightly better.

Bugz - 03 Jan 2006 21:55 - 7525 of 10502

Well managed to limit the loss by quite a bit so not too annoyed. C'est la vie innit?!!

Hehe...!

Harlosh - 03 Jan 2006 21:57 - 7526 of 10502

Goodnight guys

bakko - 03 Jan 2006 21:57 - 7527 of 10502

Sorry Bugz.

John...We could do with a night out soon to see the new year in!

Harlosh - 03 Jan 2006 22:00 - 7528 of 10502

YES Bak, Steve mentioned it a few posts above. Anytime for me. Will try and grab Steve then and arrange a date. Any preference fro you? One Thursday night again?

bakko - 03 Jan 2006 22:05 - 7529 of 10502

Any Thurs is good for me too. Hopefully, Steve will catch this and we can agree on a mutually convenient date...Sooner rather than later!

Evening guys

what a dire game, thought Rooney was stupid with the handball and many refs would have sent him off and thought we should have had a pen but all in all 0-0 was probably the right result. Both sides are desperately short in midfield which resulted in the 2 sides cancelling each other out. Henry looks barely fit and I dare say he needs a rest

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 22:34 - 7531 of 10502

My diary is pretty free, so anytime should be ok with me

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 22:58 - 7532 of 10502

start in the cricket delayed due to rain, backed the draw at 1.76

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 23:10 - 7533 of 10502

fcast for the day looks quite poor with potential for drizzle/showers most of the day

draw price in freefall :-)

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 23:13 - 7534 of 10502

Closed at 1.41 - cant see it going much lower unless the whole day gets washed out

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 23:27 - 7535 of 10502

Laid draw at 1.53 as covers start to come off

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 23:32 - 7536 of 10502

Out at 1.68

maybe i should just trade the weather in future!!!!!

Fundamentalist - 03 Jan 2006 23:55 - 7537 of 10502

looks like play will start at midnight - assuming im on my own tonight?

would expect the moisture to make batting a bit more tricky this morning and also a bit of swing with the heavy cloud cover. Will be happy to lay the draw as long as they are playing!

Cloudbase - 04 Jan 2006 00:01 - 7538 of 10502

Fundy.....nice trading, having broadband problems here, very slow tonight, been
buisy trading futures a very happy bunny i am.
Aus need to hold on to wickets for the first setion



Cloudbase - 04 Jan 2006 00:06 - 7539 of 10502

Fundamentalist - 04 Jan 2006 00:06 - 7540 of 10502

Cloudbase

well done on the futures :-)

bit of swing early on and looks like the weather fcast for the next few days has deteriorated

Cloudbase - 04 Jan 2006 00:16 - 7541 of 10502

Thanks,
Could be some wild swings then if the weather dodgy, still got the draw lay which i need to trade out, but only small, so no wory
