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.

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

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 :-)

Been a Leeds fan since 1970 bak , only found out they were English last year :-)

Has everyone given up trading, thread seems awfully quiet now. Traded the Watford v Palace match tonight, mostly scalping the draw. A bit nerve wracking just in case one of them managed to score. But a successful eveing nonetheless.
