We could just add the live trading to this thread? What do you guys think? May be easier so people know where to post. Don’t want anyone not posting because they are confused or worried it’s in the wrong place etc.

I think the idea of a lounge is terrific; somewhere to go and trade. That then leaves this thread free for discussions on how to trade,

Cadiz v Real Madrid, currently 0-0 at half time. Madrid possession 79%, 17 attempts 7 on target, xg 1.79. Why then is O1.5 goals 2.34. Something doesn't add up.

@richard-etherington the lounge is for live trading together as a group during set times when we know it will be active.

@Martin given my trades are all set and forget can you clarify I should continue to use this thread or the other?

Up to you mate, the lounge is only open at set times with the idea being to have an active thread with members knowing someone is at hand to trade with.

Anyone know what happened with the NAC v Willem match, seems to have got suspended at 77 minutes?

It was crowd problems. They can be pretty hard-core in Holland. The game was 0-1 when it got suspended.

Spent an enjoyable afternoon in the new Lounge thread, but can't help thinking it's duplicating what happens on this thread. Can somebody clarify the difference between the two?

Reading the thread descriptions, could this thread be used for technical discussions on how to trade and not used for live trading.

Then we could use the Lounge for live trading with an Expert being present at the specified times.

It was great to see @Martin giving his insights in real time and certainly helped me being new to trading.

Many thanks for setting up the new thread. It really instilled a sense of belonging.

I didn’t think this would go ahead so quickly. Fair play Martin. I think it will take btc up a level

Hi boys and girls, quick question about league availability on Betfair. Does anyone have a preferred back up exchange that they use to check when games aren't available on Betfair?

I find sometimes games are missing from leagues? Anyone else have this issue?

Do people have much experience positive or negative about getting leagues added to the exchange by contacting betfair?

Cheers, Al

question for the stats wizards out there, its in regard to the scored/conceded stats on the software. On the software its got a section that says 1 or less, and on the instructions its states total percentage of teams who have scored or conceded one or less, so by saying 1 or less you could say 0 as that’s less than 1? I’m trying to find teams who have scored conceded at least 1

@martin said in The BTC Football Trading Thread:

I feel like this thread is good for chat and some football trading but we should have a more dedicated thread for football trading itself? Maybe even some time slots where we can trade and chat together that we know when they will be.

What do you guys think? Would this be a good idea?

love this idea
