Hi.

As a Part Time Postie (I calculated Didier Drogba would earn more for playing 3 games of soccer than I would in 40 years working for Royal Mail!) - I have been scouring the internet on Sports Trading. There is a lot of stuff out there, some guy is charging £6,000 for a 2 day seminar on soccer trading! Which, for example, are the "safest"/best sports to trade on?

Can anyone help me earn a few quid extra a day by pointing me in the right direction on how to Trade & Green Up? I have a determination to succeed & help my family enjoy a few "extras" instead of just surviving. Even £20 a day would be a massive boost to our household income.

Any help on trading/greeining up with little risk would really be appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation.

RonaldinhoRAT - If only you knew Royal Mail! Full Time isn't an option. If it was, I wouldn't be on this site!

I've got a funny feeling that pointing this chappie towards trading sites, might just be the worse thing possible.
It's people like him who I would really like to see start to get ahead, but doing it by gambling I'm not too sure.
It's not easy even for the best of those suited to have go at it, but for somebody on a very low income base, and with no real experience it would seem, it just doesn't seem very prudent or wise.

I may be able to boost your income a little IF you are able to help me out. Don't bother if you already have online bookmaker accounts. BF is fine.

ps - I'm not a trader but a pro horse bettor.

From http://betting.betfair.com/education/trading/

Cold traders operate in all UK and Irish races and account for a large sum of the total volume traded in the win market.

Operating at the top end of the market around the favourite cold traders are fantastic for all users of the site. The shorter the price of the favourite, the more they get involved. (You need a bigger bank to lay first if the favourite is 6.6).

They provide depth to the market and enable traditional punters to place substantial back or lay bets pre-race.


WALOFS.

Hi Robbo0510
The days of trading with very little risk and making a bit of extra cash ended on here when they introduce the premium charge.I would advise you to turn to low stakes heads up poker tourneys (4 max) instead.Plenty of bad players donating there cash at the lower stakes and no sites care who wins or loses.
Hope this helps.
