Sports Spread Betting Review: Trading Tips Service

Written by Laura Turner

Sports Spread Betting Review

Sports Spread Betting is a subscription service which offers a refund if you do not bank at least 25 points profit per month.

However, during our four month review, we made a massive 932.9 points profit so we were nowhere near triggering the refund guarantee!

The service is run by Max and in each of his emails he details which market he will be trading, whether he is buying or selling and the price that is quoted. He primarily covers three sports - football, cricket and horse racing.

We logged results for four months, which you will see below. You can also click here for more information.


Introduction to Spread Betting

Spread betting is not the same as placing a normal wager. Rather than bet in the normal way, you are judging the accuracy of the spread betting firm's prediction for each market.

The prediction is set in the form of a buy price and a sell price, so if you think the quote is too low you can buy at the higher price and if you think it's too high you can sell at the lower price.

Spread betting does tend to carry more risk than fixed odds betting as you will win or lose more money depending on how much the outcome goes in your favour.

For example, if you think that the quote of 10.5 - 11 corners in a game is too low and you stake £5.00 at the buy price of 11, for every corner above 11 you would make £5.00 and every corner below you would lose £5.00. 


Month One Results

An incredible first month saw us bank 139.60 points profit at the prices available.

There were 44 selections advised and 19 returned a profit, which worked out as a strike rate of 43.2%.

If we had been able to obtain the prices advised in the emails we would have made an extra 16 points, but we couldn't complain having made over 130 points profit in one month!

Month Two Results

An even better month two banked a further 190.4 points profit to our total, which gave us an overall profit of 330 points.

Max had now created a Whatsapp group for his members, which meant everyone was receiving the tips at the same time to avoid any email delays.

This helped with getting the advised prices, but we decided we would also shop around at other spread betting firms to make sure we were getting the best prices going forward.

Month Three Results

Month three banked a huge 438.75 points profit. That's more than the profit from month one and two combined!

Our total profit stood at 768.75 points which worked out as a 76.9% increase to our starting bank.

As mentioned above, the odds had been moving around shortly after receiving the tips. As you can see in the results below, there was a substantial gap between the profit that we were able to achieve and the profit at the advised prices.

  • Hi

    Can you tell me if this service is suitable for someone with a 9-5 job? Can you set things up in the morning or is it best to be available in the day? What about weekends?

    Thanks
    Jim

    • Hi Jim, It would be tricky with a 9-5 job as the tips are sent out between 10am-12pm and you need to be able to act fast on receiving them as prices have been moving soon after.

      He has also started staggering the release of the tips to give people more chance to get the bets on rather than a mad scramble, so even if you were able to check emails at work it would be a case of waiting for 2+ emails on some days.

      • Thanks Laura
        Can you run from a phone or does it need special software? It would be fine to check emails etc and place bets as long as i dont need to install anything?
        Thanks

        • There’s no software needed, just a spread betting account preferably with Sporting Index. Their site has been optimised for phones so you shouldn’t have any problem getting bets on.

  • good evening laura could you tell me the correct address to access this tipster site for spread betting? I tried clicking on the purple links on this tipster site review page but the link does not lead to the site in question. Thank you.
