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.

is the www2 site more reliable and if so, is it possible to set betangelpro to that site rather than the normal one?

Scripophilist - 12 Jan 2006 11:08 - 7895 of 10502

We are working on a new version that has a couple of 'features' should there be any problems. We wont publish details but they will be available for subscribers.

Fundamentalist - 12 Jan 2006 11:13 - 7896 of 10502

cheers scrip

still havent got round to using the last feature (excel link) due to time constraints lol

Scripophilist - 12 Jan 2006 11:24 - 7897 of 10502

You will have fun, if you are even a novice at VBA you can create some useful features and button to press!

Fundamentalist - 12 Jan 2006 11:26 - 7898 of 10502

Scripophilist - 12 Jan 2006 11:46 - 7900 of 10502

We just had a browse of ww2 and it's a euro site. The seem to have a different server for euro customers. If you look the adverts are in German.

Betfair Customer Services 12 Jan 11:39


Some of you logging in to the site this morning may have suffered some site slowness. This was caused by a routing problem suffered by one of our external suppliers and affected Betfair between 10:38 and 11:00 this morning. The site was available throughout this period but some members may have been affected when trying to access Betfair.

Wed like to apologise for any inconvenience caused by this network problem. We are investigating this fault to try to ensure that it does not happen again.

Best regards

The Betfair Team
