How to profit from Betting Exchanges (BEX)

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.

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 13:00 - 7665 of 10502

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 13:35 - 7666 of 10502

Pay attention had every chance but fav won well

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 13:35 - 7667 of 10502

oops wrong thread lol

Scripophilist - 07 Jan 2006 13:42 - 7668 of 10502

It's a shame it isn't in play. I would have dumped some money in there as Arsenal have put out a reasonable side.

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 13:54 - 7669 of 10502

Look weak at the back (when dont they i know) but otherwise a fair side.

Scrip - bham look a huge price to me but cant find any team news - are they likely to play reserve team do you know?

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 14:03 - 7670 of 10502

looking like an easy 4k for whoever it was

Scripophilist - 07 Jan 2006 14:39 - 7671 of 10502

Just listening to the Brum team news, looks like a normal squad.

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 14:44 - 7672 of 10502

Agree scrip

looks a first choice side against a very poor team, 1.46 looks a huge price to me - im on

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 14:46 - 7673 of 10502

why only 1 3.00 ko game in play today?

Scripophilist - 07 Jan 2006 14:46 - 7674 of 10502

I am also on Watford vs Bolton, Watford are going well at the moment, have a good cup record and Bolton are fielding a very depleted field.

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 14:47 - 7675 of 10502

u know its not in play dont u?

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 15:06 - 7676 of 10502

torquay had a goal disallowed

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 15:12 - 7677 of 10502

Bolton 1-0 up

Scripophilist - 07 Jan 2006 17:07 - 7678 of 10502

"u know its not in play dont u? "

Thanks for the prompt, I changed my mind because of that and did some gardening this afternoon with the kids instead. As you say, very little in play. Probably because the coverage is on the BBC.

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 18:09 - 7679 of 10502

Scrip

saved me too - decided i couldnt be bothered to follow one match so traded out at nil and watched/traded the rugby instead.

Interesting one in that when Worcester were 4 points down in injury time then broke clear and scored what appeared the winning try. In piled the money buyers just as the ref disallowed the try for a forward pass lol

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 18:16 - 7680 of 10502

Scousers backed at 1.12 when went 1-0 up, backers now worried at 2-1 down lol

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 18:19 - 7681 of 10502

not to mention whoever laid Luton at 500 to be leading at half time lol

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 18:43 - 7682 of 10502

Liverpool miss dubious pen then up the other end Luton get one and score 3-1 lol

Fundamentalist - 07 Jan 2006 18:59 - 7683 of 10502

Now 3-3

amazing game and some huge opportunities if you were brave enough
