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.

just watched it on attheraces - unbelievable. In fairness to the jockey, to catch the horse, get back on, steady it for the last fence and make up all but a nose of about 12 lengths on the run-in was one hell of an effort - would have won about 50 lengths if it had stood up

also, it has lost in the photo by a tiny fraction - 1 more stride and it wins

Sounds like I missed a classic there. I have a busy week so I have been busy preparing for that rather than trading.

Hi all,
I am new to this, I have read through the thread and I am very interested in it. Is Betfair the best company to open an account with?
wilbs

Hi Wilbs and welcome.

I think everyone on here uses Betfair. I believe it is the biggest and therefore has more liquidity which is essential.

Good luck

If you enter this number Wilbs we both benefit from a small bonus.

Thanks Harlosh,
I will enter the number when I open an account.
Would you recomend going on the course as I dont have a clue about betting but like the sound of this.
wilbs

very slick john, very slick lol

I would highly recommend the course. Once you have grasped the initial concept your return will most likely be far quicker and far more profitable than anything else you have ever done.

Thanks Fundy, didn't get left behind this time.

i bet youve had the thread on autorefresh with alerts bells etc since you missed the last one lol!

How you getting on? mkts going well for me but had little time on betfair what with the house and all

Thanks harlosh.

Wilbs, Welcome to this thread. Best of luck with Betfair.

Harlosh and Fundy, You guys are far too quick for me. You'll have to give me a go next time otherwise I'll cry!

Anyway, big game on tonight. Trying to work out a game plan and will back later.

Bakko

game plan is to back arsenal to win 3-0/4-0/5-0 and then sit back and enjoy!

In your dreams.

Well said Harlosh

More apt would be " Only in your wet dreams"

I thought that might get a rise from John, now what am i predicting for the second half........

6-0/8-0/10-0?

Harlosh,

Looks like we've got a fight on! I'll take on the big ugly one. You can have the weed with the thick glasses and acne. Scrip will set the odds!

bakko - looks like you got me then lol

I've never seen you with your glasses on Steve!
