    People do make money from it but it usually involves spending countless hours each day sitting in front of the computer watching line moves.

    Bonus scalping, easier in years gone by...

              sorry Bostongambler - but i'm not sure what clone joint means - does it mean that they have the same lines?

              ok i've just signed up to a free trial of traderzone at sports arbitrage world. you get 5 days and "free arbs on fridays for life" there r a lot of free trials but i chose this 1 - some forums rate it.

              PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF U USE A BETTER 1.

              it involves a lot of work as you have to sign up to millions of bookies b4 u trade.....

              i will let every1 know how i go.

              wish me luck fellas

                    yea i'm up about $2000 bonus scalping = easy money

                    check out free-easy-money ( yea bad name ). seriously restricted if u r in the USA but if u r not, then i guess its free easy money.


                    just to clarify i mean proper scalping without bonuses

                      thanks fishhead - i appreciate the coded help from a big pro like u. i am seriously into this as IMO this is where the smart play is.

                      for any1 who is new like me, what i have found out is that just signing up to an arb service and trying to put on the same wagers as 1000's of others is not really gonna work. u just cant put on 2 bets at the same TIME. u can use the service to identify patterns in the movement of lines. when u find a pattern u can exploit this over TIME.

                      it is actually just like trading (which i know about). chart, do technical analysis and identify a pattern. but unlike trading forex hopefully no monster big player is gonna jump in and blow your whole months profit.

                      also finding any edge that will increase your profit like rebates, credit cards, and reducing commission.

                      will update my findings when i can. if i get too close and annoy any1 just let me know and i will stop posting.

                      1 day i will be there too... watch me.
