In these shorter format matches, how do you guys decide what point to green up? I had a lay of Eng, currently sat on 1.5 green out of a maximum 5 points return... when should i look to green?
Over to you, Nathan, you've been doing this a lot longer than me !
Personally, i find T20's to be quite a challenge trading, as the swings are huge, and fast, and the feed delay is also disconcerting (anybody got any ways to mitigate that?).
I suppose the obvious one to answer is that if 1 side is clearly winning, then i will let it run if i am on green side, and get out asap if on losing side. Like today, it was clear after 11 overs of Oz innings that they were going to win, so i just let it roll. However, when it gets tight, i tend to err on the bowling side knowing that a wicket can make a big swing. When there is a wicket i tend to green up as close to the perceived top of the range as poss.
But, as i said,, each to their own style.Coming back to the feed delay, i am wondering if it will be beneficial to actually trade at the game? If, for example, you could trade real-time, you would def be 'fastest finger first', and beat the 5 second (10 seconds if watching on tv) Betfair delay.
This summer for example, if you lived in the South of UK, then you could possibly be at the Oval for a 2pm 20/20 game, and then Canterbury or Ageas for a 18.30 start. Any thoughts? -
@matt-ayles yip
-
@nathan-bennett presumably you're now using green to lay?
-
LAY 1.08
mainly cause i'm addicted and why not and if a wicket dot ball queen perry might be in next ha
yeah using 10% of green to lay
-
think we can expect the bat either team to make us some money these formats
-
@nathan-bennett thank you.
I've greened up for 2.8 points (pre commission). Probably won't touch it now as looks at the moment like a comfortable Aus win...
-
@matt-ayles when too many dot balls start to happen around the 1.4 range .. no exact science mainly feel
if a trades going well lets say bet 100@3 to win 200 i would be thinking myself to green with more than 100 profit atleast double investment styles
or remove redhere i've started to back ENG drip out

Something for the battlers
IND BACK @2.2 all red out 1.55
Look to green as game progresses 1.2-1.10 ideally -
SA about 10-20 runs short here methinks.
Highest run chase at Paarl is 250 , however, not many ODI's played here.
IND seem a bit under-par by their body language, so might look at Lay IND to begin with, and then check out Kohlis first couple of overs before possibly Backing IND. -
@stuart-wallace like that . I'd likely go again around then too
do usually like back the bat when the smash on wickets in hand but missed juicey odds ha
-
@nathan-bennett said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
@stuart-wallace which game lol
just backed IND 2.2 will again if the smash late is good for SA
Yeah, see what you are saying Nathan, however, after my big loss yesterday with SL v ZIM, i am a bit loathe to back a team chasing over 300(likely). Might look to lay IND to begin innings with usual early wicket, and then Back IND once Kohli comes in.
-
With the SA v IND ODI currently being played, wicket started off slowly, but seems to have got a little quicker . India currently at 2.2 , and they prefer chasing anyway. SA not playing with Rabada, but with 2 spinners - although Ashwin has done very little so far. Think this might be a total that IND could chase. Kohli is also playing, but with Ashwin at 7, IND have quite a long tail.

With games like the current one where there is only one winner, and has been since about 10 vers of first innings.....how would you trade it?
