NBA Trading Anyone?

[TheMuntedPunter]

Hi guys, I've been watching this forum for quite some time but finally I decided I should join. My User ID on the old ST forum was the TheRash.

Anywayz, was wondering if anyone trades NBA in play? Seems like there is a lot of potential, liquidity for some matches is quite decent. A couple of days ago I was watching the match Jazz @ Suns and saw that both teams traded at well below 1.10! This seems to happen a fair bit with NBA games. Anyone have strategies to share?

Welcome TheMuntedPunter,

Been trading NBA for a while, whenever possible, cause of the vampire hours

Liquidity is more than decent on some, others don't have liq. at all.

Lots of strategies are applicable, recently, I have seen quite a few 1.01's and 1.02's get smashed, so laying a low price and taking a few ticks or even wait for the bigger swing can be profitable in some matches.
Sometimes I try to nick a few ticks pre off, put the profit on the big priced 'dog', and trade from there.

Watch the markets for some time, very nice swings usually, soon you will see opportunities.

Good luck.

I did NBA and will do in future but with so many late night tennis games i had no time to do it these days

Cheers Quo, what you've said makes a lot of sense. The matches are actually on at a nice hour over this way which is good for me. Also I was thinking that lots of money can be made by laying teams when key players such as Lebron James for Cleveland, Dwayne Wade for Miami etc get subbed out of the game...
