thanks, this is great. i've already spotted a scalp opportunity between SIA and pinny..

conservative minority +225 (SIA) 100 to win 225
conservative majority +1800 (SIA) 15 to win 285

Which party will win more seats? Liberals +140 (pinny) 100 to win 140

this isn't mathematically a scalp since there are other possible outcomes, but if the libs/conservatives are the #1 and #2 parties (which is basically gonna happen barring some sort of political disaster), your money is pretty safe..

disclaimer. i'm not on this scalp personally but it's available to anyone who wants it.

i'm personally only NDP Under 21.5 seats +124 at pinny.. with the conservatives taking the lead in the polling and riding the momentum, you can expect the "strategic voting" card to come out to shift votes to the liberals from the ndp to keep the conservatives out..

Doesn't matter Doug.

Liberals went from +140 last night, to at least +345 today and have now dropped down to +258. You could have been in and out already, just waiting 2 weeks for the money or immediately on Tradesports.

It's very good in hindsight, but how do you predict those moves? ;o)

I made a killing on both UK and US elections, and I have good (betting-orientated) news sites for both, which affect the betfair market, but the books/us exchanges lag behind..

Never found a source for other countries though. America should impeach Bush so I can make some more money ;-)

the recent moves are a result of the recent debates and polls.. if you want coverage of the canadian election, you can check the few national newspapers (globe, national post) and the national networks (ctv and cbc)..

it's not that exciting..

that being said, pinny just raised their limits on the canadian election.. "Which Party will win more seats? " just went to a 2749.74 CAD max wager.. i guess there are other people interested..

Well the market seems to have been fairly thin given the $250 max bet. I was surprised by the +345 and felt it had swung too far. When it was +320 I suggested it was worth a lead.

Liberals are +320 again now and the max is up to $2000 so I guess the market is maturing. I still think +320 is a buying opportunity but as always there are no guarantees.

I also like the +320 alot.. the liberals have started their smear campaign already and it's now everyone against the conservatives.. it could be an ugly 2 weeks for the conservatives and this could open up a big scalp opportunity.
