How to profit from Betting Exchanges (BEX)     

Scripophilist - 27 Oct 2004 23:40


ladder.gifBA_Logo.gif

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.

I missed the next race because the on air tussle was so funny.

sounds like a good one - would have liked to have seen it

some good racing at cheltenham tomorrow - may have to have a day as a gambler not a trader (thatll be 2 saturdays in a row lol)

Scripophilist - 28 Jan 2005 21:28 - 776 of 10502

Fundy, Was a 100% gain from the start of the drift to the finish. A mega pay out.

I noticed the race was called - "the Association Of Post Natal Illness Handicap Hurdle"

Ahhhhhh, the benefits of corporate sponsorship.

Just nipped in for a few quid on Bristol City vs Chesterfield.

2.5m traded, Never ceases to amaze me how much money is being traded out there at the moment.

Good evening Scrip - I also was on the game, topped up my pot by 8.65%.
Onward and upward with Betfair ...

Just submitted my booking for Scripts course. Now need to register with betfair. Before I do, does anyone want to refer me? If so send your referral code via Moneyam and I will enter the first one I receive.

many thanks

Scrip

an interesting one for you. Corals offer some guaranteed prices until 10.15 on a saturday in their shops.

Korelo today (2.35 at cheltenham), they quoted at 14-1 and guaranteed this price until 10.15. On betfair you could lay 2000 between 11.5 and 12.5 - surely a nice opportunity here (if you have a coral shop nearby)

First come first served scrip - lol

(though if i was you i would put that in the thread header)

Scripophilist - 29 Jan 2005 10:02 - 784 of 10502

I am always a bit slow in the morning!! Re : The header I don't want to hijack MoneyAM's ad revenue.

Scripophilist - 29 Jan 2005 14:33 - 785 of 10502

Phew, First match down for the day. A nightmare watching a team you support. Trying to stay unemotional was pretty much impossible!! However, I kept my discipline right through, aside from dropping my laptop a couple of times.

Harlosh - 29 Jan 2005 14:40 - 786 of 10502

Got caught by the penalty whilst backing the draw. Suppose it had to happen eventually. Though a risky strategy, it still pays in the long run.

Harlosh - 29 Jan 2005 15:00 - 787 of 10502

I just can't fathom the odds on the races today. Just seems to be doing the opposite of what it should.

bakko - 29 Jan 2005 15:11 - 788 of 10502

Harlosh, sorry to hear you got caught out. I know exactly how it feels as I got stung pretty badly last night on the Bristol v Ch'field game last night. Even though it hurts I see it as part of the learning curve. It will also keep my feet firmly on the ground too. I shouldn't take on strageties that are too risky and stick to Scrip's basics.

Harlosh - 29 Jan 2005 15:19 - 789 of 10502

It comes with the territory eh bakko. Had 100 on it so it wasn't too bad.

Scripophilist - 29 Jan 2005 15:32 - 790 of 10502

Harlosh, Sorry to hear you got caught, It happens, That's just part of a mix. I've dropped you an email that may help you in this particular case.

bakko - 29 Jan 2005 15:40 - 791 of 10502

Harlosh,
Yep, you're not wrong there. Suppose you have to take the rough with the smooth. I only wish I had 100 on it too. Unfortunately, it was a bit more than that but you'd fall off your chair if I told you the exact amount!

Fundamentalist - 29 Jan 2005 15:45 - 792 of 10502

Scrip

any chance i could have a copy of the mail you sent harlosh please
