Anybody trading on Sunday was treated to another classic Tennis match in Melbourne.<\/p>\n

Stanislas Wawrinka shocked world number one Novak Djokovic by racing to a 6-1 first set lead. Djokovic was clearly in trouble and needed to stage a big fight back or hope that Wawrinka faded.<\/p>\n

Being the champion that Djokovic is, he dug deep and started the fight back. This match exhibited perfect trading characteristics again.\u00a0 It was another match, where if you were trading, you couldn’t lose. If you backed the outsider his price shortened considerably.\u00a0 If you backed the favourite he won!<\/p>\n

I initially backed Wawrinka expecting him to put up a bit of a fight, I got more than I bargained for.\u00a0 Then I shifted some of the profit from\u00a0 Wawrinka to Djokovic.\u00a0\u00a0 This meant that by the end of the second set I had already returned eight times my initial stake.\u00a0 That seemed a fair return, so I yielded to my children and went and played in the snow.\u00a0 To my complete surprise, when I returned the match was still going on; so I could have done even better.\u00a0 But life isn’t just about making some money, is it?<\/p>\n

Each match I do a post-match analysis.\u00a0 This helps me understand were the best opportunities were\u00a0and whether I can take that knowledge into another match. I’ve included the graphic from Wawrinka. You can see two ‘bumps’ in the graphic which indicate the best places to have backed and laid Wawrinka in this match.\u00a0\u00a0These graphs often ma interesting reading.ke<\/p>\n

Let’s hope we see a few more matches like this one, that would be amazing!<\/p>\n
