trading strategy!

METHOD

 Liquidity Dependent
 SCENARIO

 A match where the market

expects goals but we expect it
to start slow.
 Ideal matches

 Under 2.5 Goals priced between 2.02

and 2.98
 Usually when there is a heavy odds-on
favourite (1.50 or lower)
 Ideal matches

 Favourites you know start slow

 Favourite is away from home
 Underdog is good at parking the bus
 High profile match
 Ideal matches

 Pre match stats not so relevant

 But the first 5 minutes is crucial!

 Entry Points
 Ideally, only on matches you can
watch live!
 At kick-off, back Under 2.5 Goals
with 100% of your stake…
 Exit Points
Put orders in the market
to lay back your stake
every 20 ticks and 25%
at a time.

 Exit Points

Or cash out if a goal is scored at

anytime
 Exit Points
By drip-laying our stake
back we are softening a
potential big loss if a goal
is scored
 Exit Immediately If
 The match starts HOT and you see a
significant attacking play.
 The market is not moving fast enough.
 The 5 Minute Rule
 If your first lay bet has not been taken
by the 5th minute then the market is
probably moving too slow.
 GET OUT!
 Best Case Scenario

All parts matched with

no goal and we cash out!
 Worst Case Scenario

Goal before any parts

matched.
 BONUS TIP
 If the market is moving slow this
usually means there is an
opportunity for another strategy
i.e the fireball or reback.
 So switch!
 What To Expect
 There will be goals scored whilst your
trade is open.
 Getting the full profit will not happen
every trade.
 Expect the worse case scenario 1 in every
10 trades
 ANOTHER BONUS TIP

 Cash out and take a profit once the match

starts to warm up.
 You do not have to stay till the end!
 THE SNOWBALL
METHOD
 A match where the market expects goals
but it starts slow.
 Back Under 2.5 goals then drip lay our
stake back 25% at a time every 20 ticks.
 Cash out if a goal is scored or if the action
starts to warm up!
