Betfair Trading Strategy : How To Trade Order Flow On Horse Racing

Рет қаралды 25,599

Күн бұрын

In this video, we will look at how to trade order flow on pre-off horse racing markets using the Betfair exchange.
This is a Betfair trading strategy that can be used by traders of all levels, and it's one that I've been using for a long time with great success.
The advantage of trading order flow is that you don't need to do any preparation to be able to trade a market. You can just turn up, watch the market for a short while and start to form an opinion on how it's likely to trade.
There are horse racing markets 24 hours a day, seven days a week. By trading in this manner, you can take advantage of that. The number of opportunities also means you will likely find a market to fit your favourite strategy.
This is why trading order flow is my favourite Betfair trading strategy!
In this video, I take a basic ladder interface and half an hour out of my day, to show you five horse racing betting markets and how I traded them.
00:00 - Introduction
01:32 - Catching a sudden move
03:20 - A bit of scalping
05:12 - A market we don't like
05:58 - Almost a loss
15:00 - The best trade of the session
17:11 - Summary

A master at work Peter. Loved this video, especially the spike reversal trade from 3.0 back down. You make it look easy. I had a bit of success on that 14.25 Ascot race you showed but, my trade was trading Oscula coming in. Looking forward to seeing more videos like this from you. The over the shoulder trading with your narrative / thought processes are very valuable for those of us trying to 'crack it' at trading.

Oscula was coming in, but it felt like that break above 3.00 would be significant. Alas, it didn't come!

I got a better entry point on this one around 2.8-2.9 but got bored or something like that and ended up break even while you managed to profit because you were very confident and relaxed

This video keeps coming up on my feed even though it's a year old. It's one of your best videos explaining overflow. I must of watched it a dozen times now. Im using betangel pro and really trying to master trading overflow on horse racing markets. But I'm still getting mixed results. Do you offer any advanced courses on trading overflow as I'm at the stage now where I will do anything to learn this skill and become a more profitable trader ? Thanks again for all your free content. You are the most genuine person in this industry and I have the upmost respect for you. I would love to meet you one day and shake your hand ✋

Hi Peter . do you know what i like best about your videos on betangel and formulas is that it teaches people subconsiosly doing research . If you start out its realy recomended to learn how to read data . Since i import average times and goals . and put the number of games per total goals and number of games of times first goals scored . i improved my results significant , just by visualizing it as scales. Wich in turn improves the formulas and ods , bts , xG ,correct scores , strenghs etc you explained in earlier videos .

@austinmurley8700 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Peter, Just to check I’m not going crazy, please tell me there were other factors behind your decision to back the short priced fav (right at the bottom of its trading range) in the final race other than it was a ‘sure thing’? Please reassure me there were other reasons and/or indicators you were using to back up this theory? I don’t expect you to reveal all your secrets so a simple yes or no will do thanks. I’m assuming it’s not wise to back every short priced favourite in a handicap on the basis it’s unusual to normally see that?

@betangeltv 2 жыл бұрын

When you enter any trade, you should have a list of things that allow you to rank the quality of the opportunity. So there will be many things that go into that to make a trade. But most trades start with a simple concept and information that confirms or rejects the idea.

@betangeltv Жыл бұрын

Betfair only published matched and unmatched amounts via their API, so there isn't any more information available beyond that. You do get last traded amounts that you can display on Bet Angel, but the level of information available on betting markets is not the same as a corresponding financial market.

The Data series config is set as Exponential MA, Data value = volume, Display style = Filled ranged from base. Is this correct ?

The red line is a plot of the last traded price. The green dashed line is simply the price envelope. (Bollinger bands if you are looking at financials) The bottom is volume and average volume filled from base.

There are not many I can recommend, as most of them have been created by people trying to sell stuff to people interested in trading rather than putting in the effort to trade themselves. So I'm sceptical about a lot of the content I see. I'm planning to release a lot more content in the winter, so that should be helpful. In the summer I'm mainly trading, so don't have much time to put new content out or organise old content.

@betangeltv I didn't ask for a ton of money in a short time. I had one of your automation, which made small pennies all day long. When I do this type of strategy manually, it works, but when I try to make automation, it doesn't work. Maybe I didn't explain properly.

@betangeltv Жыл бұрын

If you can do it manually, you should be able to do it better with automation. If you can't it means that your manual trading contains information that you haven't put into the automation. Which is interesting in itself.
