Trading Advice 10th November
-
One of my favourite tournaments of the year starts this weekend the ATP finals. It is always a great level of tennis as the top 8 players in the world fight it out one last time this year. Some new faces this time due to injuries and bad form of many of the usual suspects. These are the groups (round robin 2 qualify for semi-finals)
[1] Rafael Nadal (ESP)
[4] Dominic Thiem (AUT)
[6] Grigor Dimitrov (BUL)
[7] David Goffin (BEL)
Singles – Group Boris Becker
[2] Roger Federer (SUI)
[3] Alexander Zverev (GER)
[5] Marin Cilic (CRO)
[8] Jack Sock (USA)Nadal always struggles here, would be looking to lay him at heavy odds on v Goffin and Dimitrov (maybe even Thiem).
Fed has a tough draw Cilic and Zverev may be worth a go too as Fed will be exceptionally short.
While I expect Federer to win it his odds offer no value at the moment and after a massive year for both Federer and Nadal I really would not be surprised to see some upsets here. So I will be happy to take them both on as I said above.
If looking for outright market value I think Dimitrov at 12+ is worth a go. He has the easier group and always runs Rafa close, these conditions should suit him far more than Rafa. Goffin at 30+ in that same weaker group is also worth a tickle in my view as he has fought hard to get here and is a good indoor player.
We could get a situation where both finalists come from the same group. In this case I think Zverev could get there and at 11 may also be worth a go here.
Whatever happens it will be a great week of tennis for us traders!
