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.

Tennis final Fed v Blake starts in 30 mins

Thanks for that Bak. Thought it would be in the early hours. I'm on a wireless laptop away from home so not sure how long I'll be here before I have to leave.

I'm going out at 8pm ish but I'll keep you posted with the score as its on sky

I'm not sure how live the live scores will be but you can get it on this

Cheers Bak.

John and anyone else

If you're trading this just bear in mind that it's over 5 sets and not 3.

Fed 1-0 up but Blake played very well forcing a bp

I think the live score board is knackered!

1-1. Blake takes the game with a deadly forehand

3 bp pts for blake

Blake breaks fed's serve and 2-1

blake 3-1

blake breaks again to go 4-1

Fed breaks back to 2-4

Live scoreboard working ok now

Home now Bak but look to have missed the best of the action.

How's the cricket progressing Steve. England look as though they have the upper hand at the moment. I feel a lay coming on :-)

Just checked the odds. A lttle higher than expected so shall wait patiently.

Morning John

bit of a lay in this am lol. Obviously started well but need another break through soon really, would rather lay the indians than England currently

scrip i notice theres a training course on the 24th. is there likely to be any others in the near future? if so are they always in London or Manchester? or do you ever hold them in Birmingham. I wont be able to make it to this one as my wife is due to give birth at anytime.

Also in order to become a better trader do you need to be proficient in stats? as this is not my strongest point. any advice would be appreciated by anyone on this issue. Thanks in advance

Evo

stats can help in some of the longer term almost position like trading, but they are not critical at all, and irrelevant to a lot of the trading techniques which are far more like share based charting techniques

congrats re the kiddy and good luck for the birth

PS anyone tradeing the footie tonite?
