unders market has been a firm favourite of mine ever since i first signed up for your course :)I quite often seem to favour strategies and techniques that it would appear a lot of people steer clear of or simply dont prefer . I used to worry about this early on , until i gained more confidence ( very much thanks to your style of teaching) and realised that the very nature of trading means my somewhat contrary nature can often be used to my advantage .

Nice Lesson.

[@davidowen8490]

I really like the Unders market and I've had more success here than with other strategies. Very much a leap of faith as it means not wanting a goal.

[@SportsTradingLife]

Yes I agree, you really have to go against your natural instincts which is why many find it so hard

[@Klaus80804]

@@SportsTradingLife I rather see "fear" and "going agains instincts" as a feature of this method. Value usually is to be found when you go against what most people do. And this "fear" and "going against instincts" will make sure, it will stay unattractive to most people.

I used to have bad luck to choose some matches, in first minutes arrive goals , that is hard to predict before match starting .

[@MrDouglasmackay]

Hi Ben excellent video , whats your opinion on football played behind closed doors , Low scoring 0-0 late goals whats your thoughts

[@TSconnection1]

This is my best strategy. Used this on 3 matches in 1 day before and profited on all 3.

[@OxiEpimenw]

i get the whole mindset behind trading the U 2.5 markets but as some previous users said 4:1 is a pretty bad ratio to trade in. It would be great if you explain with more detail the match selection process cause the ''market expierience is the key'' isnt enough explanatory of the strategy you try to bring in. That's ofc my humble opinion. Great work btw and nice video.

[@ebojfmdboojoh4023]

I've just started trading the 1st half under 1.5 goal markets. in the last two weeks I've made a 100% return on my initial investment. Ive noticed In some leagues there are hardly ever two goals in the 1st half and you can gain 20-30 ticks in around 15 minutes. The most I've lost in one trade so far has been 50% of my stake. So far so good

[@Harika-travelDk]

what about second half time, for example under 2.5. goals in first minutes before kick off, when after break is 1-1

Unders are a stressful market lol. Overs tends to be less so for some reason but there's more profit to be had in the unders for obvious reasons as explained by sports trading life at around the 4 minute mark.

when you place your trade go and make a cup of tea and come back and trade out you dont have to watch the screen that way 8mins 10%

Quite like 2 early goals and then catching the steam on the under 3.5. Works quite well

[@mauropoletto5113]

Yesterday 24th May, on the Budeslilga Mainz 05 vs RB Leipzig ended 0-5, it was 0-4 by the 48th minute, you chase the unders from U2.5, U3.5, U4.5 and you lose quite a bit.

You could also lay the draw if the game potentially has a goaless first half.

[@LEROIDUTENNISDETABLE]

my last weekend was great, +2o matches was correct. and 23 May 13 matches.

[@dashofred]

Since Var has come in goal averages are down and betting against goals like in this video cold be more lucrative. So when the goal disallowed sound comes on futbol24 it can now be positive instead of negative!

[@SportsTradingLife]

Goal averages have actually not been affected by VAR. But your other point is very true. I have had a few times where VAR has saved me when trading time value!

[@chollis380]

[@petervlcko4858]

I like to trade them but they cost you a lot of money. I stop to trade under markets couple if months ago. Reason for that is I just started to trade and spots stops due to covid. I have successes but also massive losses due to bad money management. As I learning more from various traders here in tube ( thank god we have this tool) I slowly melting down to go back when I compound enough money to withstand some losses here and there. I think no more then 1% and later in 0.5% of money in risk is good approach. I traded usually markets above 2.5 and was not bad at all. Trading definitely involve your time and effort spent with it and more you know safer should be but with upside downs of course. Hope for upsides more often.✌️

[@Mark-wq5uw]

what do you do when there is not enough money to back your bet at the current odds?

[@karlmccarthy15]

I do like this market except when Spurs play. You'll find many games where no goals in first 20 mins, then just green up and get out with your 10 - 20% profit. Keep checking Bet365 for inplay stats which is also handy if you want to get into the over 1.5 or 2.5 market.

[@markjackson8261]

Time decay is a lot slower or less profits than the overs goal markets, I tend to do both, my preference is under 3.5, theres a little bit of insurance there in case there is an early goal, prefer on paper one sided affairs over 3.5, just had an excellent week with the internationals backing over 3.5 and cashing out, made 134% roi , league games a little more difficult to predict a goal rush, expected the Bayern game last night to have goals which it did, 3 in the first half, over 3.5 cashed out for a healthy profit, although Bayern actually got beat , couple of games i really fancy today to have very slow starts, Norwich v Southampton and Burnley v Crystal Palace , hoping to make around 20% on one of those games.

[@TheBlade20046]

What if there is a early goal? Do you just close the trade and move on?

[@ekehmoses4968]

Hi Ben how do your tend to manage your pay roll on sport betting? I personally gonna need some answers to that.

[@karlmccarthy15]

I assume you mean bankroll. Always keep to 1 - 2% of your bankroll

[@ivohristov425]

For trading I dont kow but if you bet and wait for cash out the bookies always low the over 2.5 and you have to wait very very long to have a profit. For me it isn't worth the risk

[@SportsTradingLife]

Not in all markets, sounds like you are going in when the price is already low on the Under 2.5?

[@ivonikolov8544]

No for example in bet 365 bet on under 2.5 in first minute at 2.0 in 15 min 0-0 it won't get you profit because over 2.5 is keeping low even if hit 2.0 system put it back to smaller price and cash out fir under is negative or a scratch trade

[@eufone]

@@ivonikolov8544 problem there Ivo is that you've got a match that the market already expects to be low scoring so the price starts low and movement will be slow. Ben usually suggests going against the market so look for games where the market is expecting goals - you'll probably get in at higher odds and rates will fall that bit quicker.

[@zdravkobrezicki2391]

I don't understand why you back and lay under 2.5 goal in same time. Why not only back it? Can you explain please

[@paulmorgan2993]

Hi Ben. I don't like trading inplay because I think it's too risky. I would rather see some videos locking in a profit pregame. Cheers.

[@peakyblinder9194]

Only way to do that is predicting odd drops......or scalping the horses pre match.

[@SuperGamingBeast1]

Great Video as always- In general and not specifically relating to this vid, Would you recommend picking a strategy e.g. under 2.5 goals and sticking to it each game? Or would varying your strategy on how you read the game be better? Sorry if that seems like a novice question!

[@s9football285]

"read the game" -> i think it take a long time to gain :(

[@SportsTradingLife]

Do you mean applying the same strategy to each game? If so then no since not every game will fit. If you mean focusing on learning one strategy at a time then yes this works well for people.

[@s9football285]

I love this! It is a good signal to consider when no goal or goal occurs sooner or later, and that important is WHAT will we do next or quit in-play a match.

[@mauropoletto5113]

I entered quite few matches deemed as low scoring and they ended AOH/AOA, you enter at the beginning of the gamme and you are in profit only from the 5-6th minute, if there is action the odds won't drop that much as punters believe there will be goals. A red card can also affect the match. You make profit 9 times out of 10 and when you have 1 or even two early goals you blow all your profits, and that is if you already traded 9 succesfull games. Watching live stream to predict if it is time to trade out is pointless as there are up to 20 seconds delay, also betfair suspend the market if they perceive a goal is coming or some dangerous action and if the market is suspended you can't do anything. Here is sod's law in action: you trade the U2.5 market and goals come more often than advertised. You may get an early goal and if you don't want to lose your initial 40% you can either wait much longer or add up on your U2.5 to bring the green quicker...another goal and you lose everything. There is a reason why live picture is delayed in soccer as well as tennis.

[@glenbaker8412]

The problem with this method is that we’d usually wait for enough ticks to make 10%. However, one goal wipes out 40% of your stake. That would mean we need four wins to break even and five to start profiting. Can we truly say that only 1/5 games will see a goal in the first ten minutes? Not sure this would be profitable in the long run

[@romaspain2702]

Not all leagues are equal,check Spanish Segunda

[@DiyEcoProjects]

10yrs of scores = the average is 2.2 scored of PAST scores I only bet "time value" as described in your video (thank you), but on a different under score. 1.5 and 2.5 seems to have more liquidity but i may be wrong. Bet the odds, and dont get emotionally attached to the football game.Youre not doing it for the game, your doing it for the numbers. 1. Win good 2. Lose then go into smaller recoup betting until youve reached "even" again 3. OR lost those recoup rounds as well. Restart on 1 or 2 or 3 *No formula works over a long period of time. Betting is all down to luck, or informed luck ;)* p.s. btw livestreaming and then betting the time delay MAY get you banned if you do it too much

im a noob at tradeing, so im wondering what what do you actually do when they score an early goal? You close to minimise the lose or keep going? Thanks

[@therebel4332]

You take out some of the money and take as small a loss as possible. The problem with trading is you need to accept there's going to be a loss sometimes, some people can't deal with that and lose what little discipline they have and start looking to recoup "the losses" in the same game, that just ends up being gambling and if that's how it ends up in the game you might as well jack trading in because its not for him/her. Trading is a stressful game and it requires patience, discipline, skill and knowledge, you can have have the latter two in buckets but if you lack the other former's you are going to lose long term.

[@ebojfmdboojoh4023]

[@martincarline8605]

Am I right in thinking that if a goal does go in within the first 6-10 minutes that you said you could lose around 40% of your original stake? So that means if you are winning around 10% when you are successful you would only need one football match in 4 to score a goal for you to break even? Doesn't seem that good to me but maybe I have gotten this wrong? According to the stats on average around 8-10 games per season a team either scores or concedes a goal within the first 15 minutes. So the stats seem a little against this trade...?

[@datatrader3535]

That's a very poor risk:reward, 4:1? risking 40% to win 10%? You need to be at 81% strike rate just to make a slight profit. So if you were blindly betting and looking at the stats I have for 2018/19 in the premiership out of 380 fixtures 79 matches had a goal in the first 10 minutes, 20.79% and the championship 2018/19 out of 552 fixtures 116 matches had a goal in the first 10 minutes, 21%. So basically over a season you would be down! Didn't drill down but would be interesting to see the if the pre-match stats, or perhaps the O/U 2.5 starting price would improve the selection.

[@Asaforex]

Hi DT some very good stats to use for this type of bet.... question if you dont mind ?....if you are convinced there will be a goal in a game what market do you start in ? thanks

[@SportsTradingLife]

Good thing that as traders we are not going to be "blindly betting". As I touched upon in the video, this is all about the markets and the speed in which they move.

[@Briesanji]

I also have same stats more or less.. I can't find any parameter that makes this strategy to be profitable in long run. Unluckly I don't have prematch stats for past season so I can't figure it out.:(
