Manchester City vs Blackburn

Trying out another strategy here with this game. I have been using the LazIE bet function in BetIE and set it to take either 1, 2 or 3 ticks with €50 trades. BetIE puts in the first bet at the current odds and fires in a market order the specified distance away. I got [...]

Boxing Day trading

Using BetIE to do some trading with the under 2.5 goals and again using learning mode due to my present lack of funds in Betfair. I have been experimenting using the hedging tool which places bets for you based on either amount of profit required, percentage movement, or a max liability.

With that tool though [...]

Chelsea vs Liverpool

I looked at the Chelsea game to see what I could do with it. The plan was to put in the back bet in at the start of the game for 90 Euro and then lay off a third at 5 minutes and another 3rd at 10 minutes then green up at 15 minutes. The [...]

Well that’s that then with the trading

Yesterday I was doing OK. I tried trading on a snooker game and was finding it to be fairly good because of swings in the market and where there is movement there is money to be made. Then I go and spoil it all by choosing the Rangers game for the evening trading. The first [...]

Good for Liverpool not so good for me

I just chose the wrong game again. I should have gone for Chelsea but went for trading on the Marseilles vs Liverpool as it was on the TV. The first goal was so quick that no way could I be greened up and then the second goal went in as I was in the [...]

Not many opportunities for trading today

I did just 2 games today Le Havre vs Montpellier with a profit of 0.80 and Prague Vs Plzen. With the French game I could have had more as it ended nil nil but I wanted to just do a quick in and out type trade just after half time. The Sparta Prague game ended [...]

Mixed sort of trading day but successful

The day was successful yesterday, Sunday because first of all I got a profit and secondly because I managed to recover well from an early goal in the Barcelona game. Fancy going down a goal in the 2nd minute at home to Deportivo ???
Earlier I had worked a nice profit of about 5 euro and [...]

Tough times

And especially tough for supporters of Birmingham City. I was doing great today and I had just about got back to level after the couple of bad days I had during the week. Then the trading today was working great I traded on 4 games and the profit was coming on nicely. Then I was [...]

  • Wizardcast 42 Trading the under 2.5 goals
    I have been trying out the Betdaq Assistant software from Gruss and I am very pleased with it. It has been created using Adobe Air which makes it cross platform.

You can also use it on Linux and even Windows if you are crazy enough to use Windows.In this podcast I was tradin […]
  • Wizardgold Wizardcast 41 - Laying the Premiership loser
    In this videocast I explore the games on Sunday the 28th of December on how they would work out with the strategy of laying the loser, after the first goal has been just scored.The idea is to lay the team that has just let the goal in and is therefore at that time the loser in the game. The second part of the strategy is to put in a back bet on the 1-2 or 2- […]
