Soccer is great because I take the available lay price and then take the same stake on SP back.
Other sports don't have SP just yet, which makes for a problem when working lots of markets. I have a spreadsheet which I input the start time and make sure it's covered just prior to the start. I never let my bets go inplay and never set bets up a few ticks away.

Sometimes you miss out on a massive drift.

One drift was $2.60 right out to $4.20 and I missed out on that rare beauty.

I make sure my events are going to start the times I can be around at my computer or sometimes will just take the odds before I go to bed if the trade went on a day or more ago and it's two hours until the event etc.
