"Edges" are hard to formulate/discover especially when first coming to sports trading.
What possibly makes this harder (this is just a guess) is that in sports with large participation like football and horse racing many people have investigated and tried many things over the years so it's unlikely you will find an edge that is new or not used that much so already potential returns are likely to be diminished as you will be chasing the profit on these edges with xxx other people.
Therefore, with this in mind I do wonder whether instead of looking at such sports I should instead spend the time to investigate more obscure sports that haven't been so "over-exposed" by investigation. Liquidity will have to be considered on those sports too because if there isn't any there wouldn't be a point in doing so.
Anybody have any thoughts on this (that are printable)?
