Racing is the biggest pre-off market on Betfair and provides some unique trading opportunities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As I\u00a0write this, today\u00a0there are eight race meetings, with a total of 50 races across the cards.\u00a0Even small profits per race add up to larger totals when you\u00a0multiply it by these sorts of numbers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Preamble<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Uniquely, for somebody in this market, I&#8217;ve made my money by\u00a0trading\u00a0for a living consistently for many years. That it my priority, I love it and I love pushing forward by researching new ideas and trading\u00a0methods. That&#8217;s how I&#8217;ve maintained my edge in the market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-11888 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.betangel.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/06-05-2016-13-58-55.png\" alt=\"06-05-2016 13-58-55\" width=\"271\" height=\"216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/06-05-2016-13-58-55.png 360w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/06-05-2016-13-58-55-300x239.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 271px) 100vw, 271px\" \/>Because of my unique position, I get a lot of people asking for additional advice, but I am unable to give it. Trading is very much a full-time job! In fact, it&#8217;s more than that if you do it seriously. You could practically trade 24 hours a day at peak periods.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I&#8217;ve been looking for ways\u00a0reach a wider audience and better help people who want to actively trade and learn from a <strong>real full-time\u00a0trader<\/strong>, rather than a full-time trainer! So that&#8217;s why we have created this course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The day will be split between myself and another trader who will guide you through the live sessions in the afternoon. We will both be present in the morning to get the day off with a bang and for you to interrogate me as much as you wish. The other tutor was been trained by me and has successfully made the transition from attending a course I did in\u00a02006, to full-time trader and now expert status. His speciality is racing markets. Not only that, but he is a great trainer as well and has been working with us to provide mentoring for a number of years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s a perfect match!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The course &amp; what you will learn<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It will be a busy day, but it also intended to be informal and relaxed.\u00a0Our\u00a0main aim is to teach you how to trade the pre-race Racing markets and what to look for.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The day will start with introductions of both tutors and delegates. We want it to be a social occasion where everyone participates. If you feel intimidated in a class environment, it may not suit you. There will be no pressure on delegates to trade but we need feedback and\u00a0active dialogue. The emphasis is on it being a fun and educational event.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We will then move into how to better <strong>read the markets<\/strong>, spot the correct <strong>entry and exit points<\/strong>, learn the <strong>true value of key indicators<\/strong>, plus a lot more. There will be lots of time for questions and answers so you can <strong>get guidance on problematic areas<\/strong>.\u00a0During the morning, you will get the opportunity to <strong>quiz the full-time traders<\/strong>, including me of course (Peter Webb),\u00a0on\u00a0their views on the market and how they trade, what and why.\u00a0This is your chance to get some key questions answered by people who can give you the answers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After lunch, you will be guided by a professional trader who will look at\u00a0live markets and everyone can add their input to what is happening. We can trade them live and anyone who wants to have a go can also trade themselves and we can offer guidance. There is no obligation to trade live if you don&#8217;t wish to, but you will have the opportunity if you wish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can never tell 100% how any one session will turn out, but hopefully we can find some quality opportunities and point out key characteristics in the markets and things to avoid. Sometimes not making a loss is a good step to a profit!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11875 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.betangel.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betfair-Copy-600x240.png\" alt=\"01-05-2016 - 1540 - Betfair - Copy\" width=\"600\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betfair-Copy-600x240.png 600w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betfair-Copy-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betfair-Copy-768x307.png 768w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betfair-Copy.png 834w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11874 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.betangel.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betdaq-Copy-600x250.png\" alt=\"01-05-2016 - 1540 - Betdaq - Copy\" width=\"600\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betdaq-Copy-600x250.png 600w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betdaq-Copy-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betdaq-Copy-768x320.png 768w, https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/01-05-2016-1540-Betdaq-Copy.png 1060w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Our\u00a0<\/strong><b>facilities<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When you attend a course with us you will be welcomed into custom training facilities at our offices. We have live feeds coming into the office and dedicated monitors on each desk, so each delegate can experience the same view of the market as us. We have a very strict limit on numbers, as we want to provide the perfect balance between instructor and attendee interaction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We don&#8217;t cram as many of you in as possible to maximise revenue, we prefer to make the\u00a0setting for the training an environment that is\u00a0realistic as possible. You will arrive in\u00a0a live working office where people trade from each day and where hundreds of millions have been traded over the years, not a\u00a0conference centre or hotel where feeds and dedicated facilities are unavailable. You will learn why this is important on the day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Our proposition<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We have structured the\u00a0course specifically to give you the maximum amount of information in the shortest time with some practical experience observing the markets. This comes from our own extensive\u00a0knowledge in\u00a0the markets. That\u00a0knowledge has\u00a0come\u00a0from\u00a0practical experience of actively trading these markets for over 16 years. All the material we deliver is completely unique, original and built on our own analysis of the markets. We\u00a0have unrivalled knowledge and experience of the markets and more importantly, unrivalled results from our work.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to seeing you on the next course<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Customer feedback<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here is some feedback from recent courses: &#8211;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;I thoroughly enjoyed the day, and it was great to meet you and Peter.\u00a0I&#8217;d say the content and delivery were brilliant, with all points clearly explained and re-enforced when necessary. I liked that you were happy to pause to answer questions, and to clarify points and confirm understanding, rather than just pushing on with the material. There were a couple of points you made that were genuine &#8216;light-bulb&#8217; moments for me, in some areas I had struggled to previously understand, and now it simply makes sense.&#8221; &#8211; Steve<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Additional information<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We aim to <strong>start the course at 09:30<\/strong> but there is no panic if you can&#8217;t make it exactly at that time.
