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.

Anyone backed arsenal and greened up ?

Fundamentalist - 05 Feb 2005 17:31 - 964 of 10502

Looks like i can concentrate on watching the rugby then

chartist2004 - 05 Feb 2005 17:35 - 965 of 10502


Fund - yes greened up on first goal :o( ! 1.03 to lay gerrrr..

Fundamentalist - 05 Feb 2005 17:36 - 966 of 10502

Still a nice profit - well done

chartist2004 - 05 Feb 2005 17:39 - 967 of 10502

Thank Fund, making like shelling peas today! :o)

Fundamentalist - 05 Feb 2005 17:44 - 968 of 10502

Already green on the rugby - may go back for more in a bit

Fundamentalist - 05 Feb 2005 17:48 - 969 of 10502

Not a lot of options on the football now scrip :-)

Scripophilist - 05 Feb 2005 21:15 - 970 of 10502

Not much to be done when the score is 3-0 is there??

Now green on Juve and Real matches.

Scripophilist - 05 Feb 2005 21:35 - 971 of 10502

Just finished on the Real game.

I would appear to have had a record day. Probably made in all honesty with that performance by Scotland. In fact since doing the course in Manchester I seem to have picked up speed. Don't know why, but maybe it just added some extra focus; Can't complain anyhow. Hope everybody else had a good one. I suspect they did!!

chartist2004 - 05 Feb 2005 22:16 - 972 of 10502

Greened up on the Real game after 1st goal. another 22%.
Anyone on the FBR Open Golf a one hores race with P. Mickelson 70% to be had? IMHO DYOR ...,

Dil - 06 Feb 2005 01:56 - 973 of 10502

Anyone else back Wales ?

:-)

Harlosh - 06 Feb 2005 02:07 - 974 of 10502

Probably the support you get from Fundy and I since Manchester Scrip! Lol.

Harlosh - 06 Feb 2005 02:09 - 975 of 10502

Too close a call I thought Dil to get involved. Well done though if you did.

Scripophilist - 06 Feb 2005 12:11 - 976 of 10502

Quick win on the Celtic match. Plenty of more footy today.

Harlosh - 06 Feb 2005 12:12 - 977 of 10502

Damn, just got to the PC to place my bet and they scored. Damn!

Scripophilist - 06 Feb 2005 12:31 - 978 of 10502

Was only 20% anyhow. Probably some good opportunities later.

chartist2004 - 06 Feb 2005 12:31 - 979 of 10502

Gooday guys - Celtic, greened up within 10mins for another 22.8% easy profit. Next!

Scripophilist - 06 Feb 2005 13:17 - 980 of 10502

So chartist what will do you when that loss arrives?

chartist2004 - 06 Feb 2005 13:56 - 981 of 10502

Scrip - Loss arrived 6 yrs ago! slowly digging myself out, have a long way to go yet :o( make some - loose some, then back to work trucking! I'm working o/t this pm,
have to make a few on the Rugby/Footy 1st! up over 100% yesterday o/all.

kajman - 06 Feb 2005 15:19 - 982 of 10502

chartist2004, what's your strategy on the golf?

I layed Mickelson last night (no not like that!!) at 1.25

I could green up now at 1.27, for 73p profit. But I'm not sure what to expect from the price before and when he tees off. Also I don't have a feed to the state of play.
