It should really be a no brainer in the majority of cases unless of course you do actually have no brain
Trading just gives greater options and is more efficient. It also creates situations where pre event and in play markets can be linked to exploit pricing inefficiencies pre off.
However one caveat to that Pat is if you're very adept at spotting value and end up trading your EV away on the cheap. Even then trading reduces volatility through the trading of volatility but a very sharp punter will outstrip a bad or mediocre trader.
I laid City today pre off because their price looked wrong but I still traded out at one all. I'm always more confident if I know the price is out like I felt it was for Leeds/Spurs.... Arsenal/Villarreal
