I know most people dont go in running, but I quite enjoy in running as the rewards can be much better. Anyway I would like to hear from in running traders and how they trade. I like to back or lay before the off and then put in the trade bet straight away, this way if the trade goes well the bet is taken before personal thoughts take over. I usually go for the place markets and put in trade out at half the odds for 3/4 the stake. Any opinions or advice

I used to play the place markets for a while but should look at it again.

The thing about the place market is often you can't see the third horse on the screen until it arrives at the post.

What I mean is the camera follows the front 2 horses until they cross the line and then the camera stops on the line. On course punters could surely hoover up. Although the stakes are small I am sure there is a bit of cash to be made?

I have now gone from inplay running to Pre race trade, i found out that over months according to my records you are on a loser. Pre race trading there is more control over losses, and if you time your entry point right (plenty of indicators for this in BA) You can get some nice scalps and swings. Green up sit back with the risk gone. A new mehod i am doing also is trading the first three in the market and sitting on them in play with zero risk on the others, Very profitable if you get the scalps in within the time frame of 10mins that i give myself.
