trading strategies...

I'm not a trader so I don't know what successfull traders think about this but... If I had the key to trade well I don't think I would share it with everybody asking for it....

I can give you a silly advice like: "lay short, back long"

Golden rules.
Only back a player when he has just lost a point or game or set.
Never ever chase.
Once green, stay that colour, flip the green if you want more but don't go back into the red.

don't just trade to trade.

Ask yourself questions about the match and the players the same as choosing a bet on the match.

The market constantly over-reacts to leads, etc.  Keeping a mind-set that the opening odds are based on an entire match (thus, a favorite losing the first two games will be meaningless then the final result is 6-2, 6-2 in their favor) and look at how the games are being won and lost and position your trades accordingly.

As alkey says, once you are green, feel free to reinvest some of that into a projected swing but don't re-enter the market, especially in best of 3 which can be over quite quickly.

You have to know the players to trade well.

Obviously need a thorough understanding of the players and the general game of tennis, but also have a great understanding of the markets inplay, how each one is moving as they are all different, and how inefficient/efficient they are. It's not rocket science. Then when someone has a grasp of that then they can take value bets inrunning, from both a subjective and objective viewpoint.

Muppets see value as = I think he should be shorter, which is naive to say the least.

BACK HIGH LAY LOW....SIMPLES.

back Nadal when he's facing a BP. Very rarely loses them, and even when he does, he usually breaks back so you get a chance to green up.

sorry but that is awful advice.

I remember when all these courses were advertising that you can "trade on sports without knowing anything about them"

Can't be further from the truth.  Whether horses, football or tennis or ?? , the amount of effort that you put into research will reflect your return.

Also, never overexpose yourself.  One twisted ankle and all intentions to trade out go out the window.

That sounds like a rule GVL would adhere to...

stay away from the forum when trading in play
