After spending some time at the beach last week, I returned and took a shot at trading the horse racing markets at Betfair before the start of the races. I did not use technical analysis that much but rather watched the momentum developing and scalped the betting odds. The result was to make multiple trades of small profit and in the end after one hour of trading the result was a 4% increase in my Betfair bankroll. I was used at this kind of trading back in the good old days and I decided to resume my trading activities at Betfair after a long time.

Betfair Trading Video Bet Angel Pro Technical analysis

In my recent articles I explained technical analysis on Betfair graphs and giving out tips how to use trend lines along with support and resistance levels in order to predict the odds movement in Betfair. In today's trading video I draw the trend lines while I'm recording my trading session so you all can see how I try deciding whether I should back or lay. Either drifting or steaming, the betting odds constantly move and the betfair graphs reveal a lot more than just a picture. BetAngel Professional is a tremendous help in order to find better entry and exit points since their betting charts are updated much faster. However, I still use the original Betfair chart to find out the long term trend and react in time.

BetAngel Betfair Trading Video

Recording my Betfair trading orders using BetAngel Professional and explaining my trading strategy at the same time was a first for me. I have recorded Betfair trading videos before but today's video is the first one where you can actually hear me discussing my trading. The betfair video was done for the official Betfair Greek Blog, where I often post educational articles and try helping other Greek bettors or traders, experienced or not. During the trading session I manage to lose in both horse racing markets but the method of thinking remains the same both for winning and losing in trading. My thought process and trading actions were exactly the same as in every other horse race, but the odds did not move as I predicted. You lose some, you win some. When you lose though, try to minimize the losses as I am demonstrating in this betfair trading video!

Betfair Online Trading Video

Trend is your friend and today's sports trading video is a prime example of that. Betfair trading is not that difficult if we follow simple rules when trading the horse racing betting odds with BetAngel Pro. In this Betfair trading video I traded 2 horse racing markets with small stakes and while the first horse race didn't go that well, the estamblished downtrend in the second one made online trading easier for me. If only I hadn't believed in that last Breakout formation in the chart which cost me half of my winnings, although Breakouts have made me money before!

How to make money in an inactive Betfair market

Make money trading Betfair betting markets

"Buy low and sell high" is the general concept in Betfair trading. The issue though is that sometimes the Betfair markets seem inactive and the odds don't move that much, fluctuating just a few ticks around a mean price, making it difficult to make money. The solution that is described in this trading video is to trade just one tick at a time, usually a method that is known as scalping. You'll need a trading platform for this trading technique from Betfair Developer Program. My favorite is Bet Angel Professional.

Tennis is a popular sport to apply trading systems on. Like in stock trading, technical analysis provides excellent help to define entry and exit points while we try to make money trading tennis matches. The trading video shows how to take advantage of charting tools like FairBot, making use of trading indicators like Bollinger Bands and how to trade successfully in-play tennis games. Watching a sports trader execute his swing trades in a live tennis match means that sports trading isn't only about horse racing and football, but tennis as well.

I mainly targeted small movements and looked for just a few ticks per trade, which they all added up to a healthy profit. Enjoy the video!

Betfair Trading Videos with Bet Angel Professional

Tuesday, 20 November 2007 09:43

I've recently received a video response to a trading video of mine posted in Youtube. Upon searching a bit, I found another Betfair trader who posts trading videos in Youtube and shows how he trades the UK Horse Markets in Betfair. Watch a couple of videos and see how he's doing. Although the stakes are low, that doesn't mean his trading is easy. He always makes use of a BetAngel function called "offsetting", which places a bet in the opposite direction in order to automatically close the trade with one tick profit. According to the official Bet Angel website, "use off setting to instantly place a counter order in the market 'in the money' to ensure you have the best possible chance of closing out a profitable trade".
