Now that's a ladder configuration I haven't seen before.

Thanks... but... I have absolutely no idea what he's doing to make money. Any instructions?

Patience, experience and study.

thousands races traded...cutting losses, trade out before the off. Everything you already know, just need to master it...

Sure, but where can I get the info to study? I notice he has no charts up. I'm really just approaching this from an academic perspective. I think I've got a way of making money from football that identifies a pattern of events, is based on probability, risk/reward and money management, so my account is slowly growing. It's just about waiting for the set of events to occur, which is no problem as I'm used to waiting for the stock markets to do their thing.

That is the problem. I don't know what I need to know. I know the physical act of trading. Back high, lay low or reverse, but he's not just doing it randomly.

Just watch the race markets, there's one every 5 mins or so...

fairly standard dog strategy, put your bets in a few ticks out of the money and green up if they get taken.

Only problem is if you get matched and then the price moves 30 ticks against you... which does happen.

Another strategy is to wait for big moves to finish trade the bounce. Scumbag did a good few posts about trading the dogs

OIC. I thought he knew something I didn't. I mean if I did it randomly, then it'd just go against me I'm sure. So he's actually trading the spread.

yes, maybe its called spread, I didnt read that post from cran before...I also look at WOM as I think it is the strongest indicator in greyhound markets

Nice vid dude. I can not trade the greyhounds to save my life they always cost me a fortune so I tend to stay clear,good to see some can trade them.

And now you get to see the person you were giving your money to.

Yes! Very nice layout! I've been trying to get something like this, but am having trouble finding the setting to make the WOM @ each tick on the ladder look like it is in this vid. I mean, there seems to be graphical representation of how much money is sitting there, rather than just numeric? Or are my eyes just playing tricks on me?

[shadowninja]

AGT does this with different shades of grey if that is what you mean.
