Oke new year and i got myself an BA account to start trading. 1 soccer match a day, for small stakes:

First one 4-01-2011:
Blackpool -- Birmingham i backed Blackpool and Draw :(

Second one: 5-11-2011

Wolves -- Chelsea i backed Chelsea and Draw.. :(

Maybe Trading isn't the thing for me...:-)

That sounds like punting not trading

Ok still 0 - 0 and can green up for € 10.

Question if i green up its spread over the three outcomes. What happens if i use Trade Profit --> on draw it gives € 72 ?

Gope not a stupid newby question..

Sounds correct to me, if you take the 10, you will get that whatever the result.

If you go for 72, it will only payout if you end up with a draw. However if either team wins, you should end up with 0 loss as well. This option should mean that you are laying for the same amount that you backed the draw originally.

... sorry, I just realised that you also backed Milan, so not a 0 result for the second option. I'd green up for the tenner :).
