A lot of people say that trading will just cut your wins and losses and work out about the same as punting.. However, I believe a bigger ROI is more likely with trading than punting.

Obviously it depends how good your judgement is but has anyone compared their trading figures and what would have happened if the initial bet was left? Is the consensus that it is easier to make more?

that wont be a fair comparison... when you put in play trades on you try and predict movements of odds and green up with absolutely no care about the outcome.. so you cant really compare that to a bet which is trying to predict the game.

Trading in play is about predicting the movement of odds during the game and greening up or redding out before the game finishes .. not about who will win.

Yeah good point actually this is probably where most people go wrong with trading. e.g. Fed at 1.06 after first set bound to win now but I'll trade at 1.03 to be sure... 1-1 ooops.. time to sh1t myself...
