Thanks guys, so these are not people backing on 1.01 to have 1% profit, right?
Are they people laying at 1.01? And where's is the profit?
Thanks

Yeah I just ignored that, sort of defeats the point of the forum..

People are offering to lay at 1.01 but the bets will only get matched in running if the horse goes close in the race (or somebody makes a huge fat-finger mistake pre-race). The layers are trying to win big with small risk, the backers are trying to win small with huge risk, supposedly compensated with a high probability of success.

Thnak you. But in football what's the % of success in that cases?

Its implied in the odds (if the market is efficient & no reason to assume its not)... Of course in the last few seconds of a game you can gtee someone will have a faster feed than you )

This is really something you need to research yourself. Any information handed to you over the internet, by its very nature of transparency, can't be highly prized.

In tennis, it's quite common for a player to blow a couple of match points and bounce away from 1.01. In football I'd guess it happens when a team is two goals up with a few minutes to go when they concede.

Remember when Luke saw a screenshot of somebody who backed a tennis play for £10 at 1000? I think he thought the green-up profit must be £4,990 when it was really £1.

During a 24 hr period in the recent US Open just there was 2 x 1.01 and a 1.02 or 1.03 turned over within 8 matches

Countless number hit it and bounce out a various amount of ticks

Queue position still important as you'll often be behind 6 figures when the player nears 1.01

Hi again guys, thanks to everyone who spent time to answer at my stupid question.
What I would say is that in almost every football match I noticed the same as I attached, so I suppose it means on football is a profitable strategy? Or not? I would to talk about football trading, no tennis or horses, thanks

It's unlikely you'll find a profitable strategy by simply laying every market in a particular sport at 1.01 or any other price. With a bit of refinement regarding selecting the criteria and perhaps closing some or all of the trade, there can be profitable strategies around laying at a low price.

When I lay at 1.01 -1.05 which is quite often I only ever want a tick or 2
