We've all seen the betangel videos on youtube and the guy doing it seems to get his counter trade matched straight away, how does he do this!? is this something that comes with experience? ive found myself getting my counter trades matched but i usaully have to wait for it, sometimes the market goes completely against me but i can see its going to come back and just wait it out, the guy in the videos gets them matched straight away!

I'm only using £2 stakes atm, and i will continue to do so until i am very confident!

His reading the market with an amount of experiance under his belt. Why are you waiting for a counter trade in a market that is going against you,you are suppose to get out, the amount of trades i get out of after 1 tick in the wrong direction, i correct them, it also improves scratch trades alot if you get out fast. It comes over time, the video,s show of this softwares potential and it is genuine potential once you can start to read markts especially the pre horse race ones

It may have something to do with the time you are in the market?

If you are hours out or maybe many minutes out the rate at which orders fill will be very different from when you are just 0-5 minutes from the off.
