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.

Thanks, think I am with you :-)

I took out a small bet to test it.

Back E 10 @ 8.8.

Now 18's.

If I lay back E into the market 10 @ 18's

then back E @18's @5.11 my loss will be -5.11 and not -10.

How's that :-)

Equador aint going to 4 :(

Peter, can you send me your course/training material please, think I need it :-)

im trying to use betfiar on my 6230i, but the server dont respond!!

spot on Mr E - i think were getting there ;-)

Poland are drifting, could be interesting soon if they get to 2's or 3's.

Wouldn't put too much on though.

Pommy

doesnt look like youre alone. On the betfair forum there is a thread with a few others with your phone and the same problem

Just another one to make sure!

Say I backed Poland 100 @ 2
Then CR score.

Poland go to 5's

I then lay it back into the market, do I lay 100 @ 5's?

Then I back them again at for 60@ 5's for a minus 60 loss on all outcomes?

back poland 100 at 2.0 gives

Poland 100
C Rica -100
Draw -100

lay Poland 100 at 5.0 gives

Poland -300
C Rica 0
Draw 0

Back 60 at 5.0 would make you a guaranted 60 loss (or you could let the 300 loss run and hope they dont come back to win)

Poland at 2.2 looks attractive.

tend to avoid dead rubbers myself Mr E - hard to predict how each side will approach it

layed Poland at 2.46

Bollocks

Becasue it looked like they were not interested in playing, just wanted to get the game over. The chart also looked ready for a break out.
