Professional Sports Trading vs Stock Market
Today's professional-level sports bettors and traders are not what most people believe them to be. You can forget about all of those screaming guys in suits on cable television wanting to sell you picks. They are not professional gamblers they are salesman who sell picks and 900 numbers.
Successful sports investment traders appear to be pretty much like anyone else. The difference is, they absolutely love what they do for a living. Although they generally put in a lot of hours, they are their own boss. They can pick their own hours and their own work environment. Generally speaking, many don't consider themselves gamblers at all; most would say they're better described as "Traders" or 'investors". Betting on sports, after all, can be linked in many ways to investing in the stock market.
Bettting on sports has many of the characteristics of trading and investing in commodities or stocks, - but without some of the disadvantages concerning insider trading, overpriced broker fees and a general feeling of not being in control of your own destiny. In the stock market you're betting your expertise against world-class experts and corporate insiders who get most news a long time before you do. On the other hand, with this weekend's sports games, you're betting your expertise against the average person betting on sports. It is self-evident who is easier to outthink, the full-time stock market player or the average sports bettor.
Another big difference between sports investment trading and gambling on stocks or commodities is, of course, that in sports betting you have no chance of making or losing 5%-10%-20% of whatever you risk on a particular "stock." You figure to either lose 100% of your investment in that "stock" or make 91% on your investment...And, of course, with sports investment trading you don't wait for weeks or months to know if your investment was successful. You get an answer in about three hours. Consequently, you can turn over your total bankroll much more quickly, and your investment remains much more liquid. Typically, a full-time professional sports trader can have up to 2,000 opinions per year and an "edge" (an expectation of winning) of between 54% and 58% of those bets wherein he must risk 11 to win ten.
At 55% winners over 2,000 plays a sports trader would have 1100 winners and 900 losers. At those figures, his gross profit would be over 100 betting units. If his bet size is 1 percent of his beginning bankroll, and even if he does not increase the size of his bets as his bankroll increases, he makes 100 percent profit on his original investment every year. Risking 2 percent of his original bankroll, he figures to make 200 percent profit per year. Changing his bet size when his bankroll increases (or decreases) by 50%, he can make much more. Compare that to investing and trading in stocks or bonds, which pale by comparison.
Statistics show us all it takes is to win at least 54% winners against point spreads and totals, - and, of course, to properly manage your bankroll to be succesful. The Sports-Investment-Club will manage this and show you a 100 percent return is possible with a win percentage of 54-57%.
