hi
i have started to get to grips in how the automation rules work now, mostly the football & tennis , but the question that i would like some advice, suggestions or opinions from traders is. - e.g in football what is the better strategy to use? put automation rules on a number of matches or is it better to select one or two matches and put bigger trades on
e.g on a given saturday put £20 trades on each
5 english premiership,
5 bundesliga,
5 la liga (total outlay £300)
or
pick 3 matches and trade £100 on each trade
also the same question for tennis trading
i appreciate its probably up to the individual but would be greatfull for some opinions
thanks

Gareth, much as i prefer (to watch) football to horse racing, I am more inclined twds the former for a few reasons:

1. shorter time frame
2. greater volatility
3. wider field

if you can grok the market on football in a similar way (i.e. in/out in a short time frame), then I think you could make good bucks. However, in play is always messy (or occasionally messe!! :). For this reason, I'd recommend looking at the pre game strategy in depth. Alas, I'm no expert on that, but i can imagine a nice 2-3 day window could work well leading up the kick off.

So, as i was saying, think nags :)

cheers
