One day after BetFair’s PR move, the very active event derivative traders are still very displeased by the new BetFair “premium charges”.
I have re-published yesterday’s BetFair Q & A at the bottom of my previous post —because that’s the post that Google features, bringing in 300 people a day. – My analysis of this PR debacle: BetFair has a very complex … Continue reading
