When and why are they moving??

Can we take advantage of this movement??

Mike Bibby Buyout one Week After his Trade from Atlanta


Mike Bibby Buyout one Week After his Trade from Atlanta



Mike Bibby and his new (already got old) team, Washington Wizards, came out with a new surprising new deal: a buyout!

In a surprising decision the Wizards one week after getting him from Atlanta,  took the big decision to leave him giving up his entire salary for next season. If someone take in consideration that Bibby for the next year should get $6.2 million then the deal does not sound too bizarre. Washington got a great relieve on salary cap because they have saved a great deal of money.

Mike Bibby now has the chance to make his dream come true as he has the opportunity to sign with a title-contending team. Teams as Miami and Boston sound as a big challenge for him. It is obvious that these teams will fight for his signature.

If one of these teams signs up with Mike Bibby then the championship’s doors are opening widely for them.
Let’s see what happens

CASE STUDY 3: COPA DEL REI: BARCELONA vs SEVILLA


Today there is also another interesting match between Barcelona and Sevilla for the "COPA DEL REI". Punters are hugely backing Barcelona and this has made the odd to fall from 1.52 that was yesterday to the current 1.44
Lets see if there is any space to go down even though we have to deal with a big derby. Would it be a good opportunity for Pre-Match Trading as punters will keep betting on this event?.

The liquidity is very good because over 700.000 Euros are already matched in the market.

I wont forget to set 2 ticks stop loss

UPDATE 1st: 2 hours before the start the odds went down just one tick and now 30 minutes before the kick off they went back to 1.44. Lets see what is going to happen the next 30 minutes.
UPDATE 2nd: At the kick off Barcelona's backing odds where at 1.43.
