Visual Form-Book - Betting Exchange
VFB connects directly to the Betfair Betting Exchange. The user can BACK or LAY horses at the prices offered or requested or can offer or request his/her own prices. A Balance utility is included for Win Markets which, after placing bets, will balance your book to minimise your liability and present you with the necessary bets ready for submitting.



In the example above, STRONGHOLD(GB) has been BACKED to win at odds of 3.5 (5/2) for £4. The numbers under the heading, Ex Scen show the Existing Scenarios. If STRONGHOLD(GB) wins then a profit of £10.00 is achieved. If any other horse wins then a loss of £4.00 is made.



The Balance utility can be used to balance your book to minimise your liablity. In the example above, STRONGHOLD(GB)'s requested odds have shortened to 3.0 (2/1). This presents an opportunity to LAY STRONGHOLD(GB) at this shorter price. Visual Form-Book automatically presents the user with the necessary bet(s) ready for submitting. The New Scenarios (should this opportunity be taken) are shown under the heading New Scen.



The example above shows that the opportunity wasn't taken. The user waited for an even shorter price to be requested (2.96). The opportunity was then taken and the Ex Scen's show that it now doesn't matter which horse wins this race. The user will make a profit of at least 72p whatever happens.
