Of the many ways for making money online that I have dabbled with or investigated Fixed Odds Trading has featured as one of my favourites. It is easy to do if you have the right information and depending on your risk profile it can be very rewarding. If you've been following my blog for some time you will know that currently I am subscribed to two fixed odds advisory services.

The first is headed up by Matt Shaw whose track record has taken something of a beating over the last few months especially in the run up to the end of 2006. I'm sticking with it for the time being but putting some other boundaries around the recommendations as posted until I see a definite improvement in results.

The other service is from Market Excellence and the service I am currently subscribed to is from Martin Cornish. Given the rather bullish moods of the markets at the moment on both sides of the Atlantic Martin has been sparing in his recommendations so it is still too early to really comment on the success rate, however the approach is very conservative so I am confident that an overall profit can be made.

Still in the Market Excellence stable but with a higher element of risk attached are the recommendations from Steve Hoven where the approach is to trade on the FOREX markets in a fairly aggressive manner. Steve's trading style means that you have to be able to react quickly on his recommendations so unless you are able to devote a lot of time to the venture it might not be for you. However, there is a way to get involved without needing to do anything yourself. You can join the Auto Trading group where all you have to is to purchase units and the trades will be executed on your behalf.

There is a potential drawback however as the membership is being restricted to a maximum of 250 and as at the end of January there are less than 100 places left.

With an average profit of 16% per month there is a good opportunity to leverage the expertise of someone else to make good gains. Just remember memberships are limited. One thing you should know is that you are offered a guarantee that if you do not make a profit over the period of your membership then it will be extended for free until a profit is made.

So, for a monthly fee starting at just over £20 you have the potential to make a handsome return on your investment.
