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.

Just backed over 2.5 on Utd also, and they have just gone 2-0 up :-)

ptholden - 07 May 2006 15:28 - 9694 of 10502

oops, edit last post. Backed over 2.5 on the W Ham v Spurs game instead! Out of touch!!

ptholden - 07 May 2006 15:30 - 9695 of 10502

lol

ptholden - 07 May 2006 15:34 - 9696 of 10502

Well Utd are humping Charlton, might be worth an over 3.5 or 4.5?

Fundamentalist - 07 May 2006 15:37 - 9697 of 10502

pth, thats the 2.5 and now 3.5 done, just 4.5 to go :-)

ptholden - 07 May 2006 15:40 - 9698 of 10502

i did the 4.5 at 2.1, not very liquid though

Fundamentalist - 07 May 2006 15:51 - 9699 of 10502

Dont worry about liquidity, let it run its course :-)

ptholden - 07 May 2006 16:04 - 9700 of 10502

well done on the Arsenal match Steve, I didn't realise the match was on Sky Sports 3!

I have to admit I tend to take profits now when they are there, too many times I have lost money by not doing so.

By the way, are you going to sign up for the golf challenge, we can always carry you out onto the course on a stretcher :-)

Fundamentalist - 07 May 2006 16:18 - 9701 of 10502

Get in Henry :-)
Come on the Hammers (Sheringham u tosser!!!)

ptholden - 07 May 2006 16:21 - 9703 of 10502

Fundamentalist - 07 May 2006 16:36 - 9704 of 10502

Fundamentalist - 07 May 2006 16:37 - 9705 of 10502
