Trading from the beach

06/02/2010 | By More

I’ve traded from many, many locations around the world. Next to swimming pools, at airport lounges, from hotels and in cars. But it seems we are slowly moving towards that ideal scenario of completely portable trading.

Thanks to Bet Angel user Rob for sending me the latest update on Slinging over 3G. It looks like, in America at least, Apple are going to allow slinging over 3G for the iPhone. This would be a decent leap forward to getting pictures where ever you are. Currently I’ve had to sling pictures over wireless when I reach a location but over 3G would be very useful, even if it is a little delayed. I’ve been using a VPS for some years now as the bandwidth requirements are tiny but the consistency of connection excellent and the speed very high when trading remotely. It’s made trading via 3G very possible, but lack of pictures have always been a nuisance.

Now we are moving forward with slinging over 3g and with products like the MiFi from three the possibility of trading from the beach is definitely looking a reality!

I left a good job in the consumer technology industry to go a trade on Betfair for a living way back in June 2000. I've been here ever since pushing very boundaries of what's possible on betting exchanges and loved every minute of it.
