Sports Trading UK

Golf Trading what we aim for is to  have a position on each player we have selected before the tournament goes ‘in-running’ or ‘live’. When ‘in-running’, players market values fluctuate depending on every shot. 

 

We can also make numerous bets throughout the tournament, some of which will be losing bets, but ideally these will be outweighed by the winning bets. If we gets into a situation where there are very few players which will win money, we may feel the need to trade out of the current position. we can then lay a player whos price looks too short  and hope to get some green back as he drifts.This can be tracked shot by shot.this will shorten the losses for every other player and hopefully in turn create more winners in the field. The prefered way is to take your liabilities out as the tournement progresses towards its finish. Normally Sunday evening on the uspga tour which is STUK prefered tour. Why!! well it finishes late Sunday evening compared to the European tour. So less of a problem to trade for Traders who are busy during the day. Plus i have been watching the tour now for more years than i care to remember.

 

There are many more ways to trade golf which i am in the process of writing a pdf for.But this method is the easiest method to trade golf
