For over two decades, I've done a lot of trading. Most of this has been behind my desk, but I've always enjoyed travelling and mixing the two seemed quite natural.

I’ve traded from aeroplanes, beaches, mountains, hotel lobbies, and even 30,000 feet in the air. In this video, I’ll share how my trading setup evolved from a converted garage to a fully mobile workstation — and how modern tech like Starlink and VPS servers make it possible to trade safely and consistently from almost anywhere.

👉 You’ll discover:

* My very first Betfair trading setup (it wasn’t glamorous!)
* The challenges of trading remotely in the early days and how I overcame them
* How Airbnb, live streaming, and portable tech transformed trading on the move
* Why Starlink is a game-changer for remote traders
* The truth about trading remotely(and why you need confidence at a desk first)

Whether you dream of travelling the world while trading or simply want the flexibility to step away from your desk, this video will show you what’s possible — and how you can get there too.

Travelling & Trading: How to Trade From Anywhere in the World 🌍✈️

Bet Angel August 31st, 2025 08:00

Learn how to use the race card to identify profitable races with this horse racing trading strategy.

This video explains how to analyse Betfair horse racing markets by scanning multiple races and identifying which ones are best to trade, especially using Bet Angel!

I show how to read market data and spot patterns that help make smarter trading decisions using the Betfair betting exchange.

You’ll see exactly how I grade each race by field size, class, volume and price profile, then match the right strategy – scalping, swing trading or stand-aside – before a single pound is staked.

⏱️ Video chapters

00:00  Intro – why trade selection beats blanket trading
00:46  The three-step process for every trading day
02:30  Scanning the full card: easy vs. hard races
08:00 Looking at volume, jockeys and trainers
10:36 Understand how this is and isn't helpful

🔗 Useful links & resources

Bet Angel Guardian lists: https://forum.betangel.com/viewforum.php?f=68

🚀 Key takeaways

Race profiling matters – field size, class and price shape dictate volatility.
Guardian is your radar – volume filters and jockey/trainer flags pinpoint live edges.
One size never fits all – scale stakes and tactics to the race, not the other way round.

⚠️ Disclaimer

Betting and trading involve risk. Only stake money you can afford to lose and always trade responsibly.
