No, no I used to live in Spain and work for a small brokerage firm there. I traded CFDs on sports markets, so basically spread betting.

sirnovember Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 (edited) You worked at a brokerage and did trading? I didn't know brokers did trading. Oh well, it could only happen in Spain. Take a look at this article http://www.totalgambler.com/othersports/fe.../ed_murray.html I'm a betfair addict myself. You can make a few quid if you have the talent. EDIT, Just kidding about the addict bit LOL Edited February 24, 2009 by sirnovember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just a kid and I got taken under the wing of one of the traders. When I came back to England (my boss in Spain was a corrupt ****** who did me over) I joined IGindex and traded CFDs on the greyhound and American sports markets. I've got a Betfair account and luckily I'm still in a bit of profit. I bet you're one of those arbitrage betters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
