Accessories
As Sports Betting Arbitrage attracts more and more attention, competition is increasing to find the best arbs and place them before anyone else even knows they exist. This page has information on all of the assistant programs available to make arb trading faster, easier to do, easier to keep track of or easier to find. The Calculators sections describes the characteristics of known arbitrage calculators.
Arbitrage Calculators
ArbsCalc
ArbsCalc is a free to trial calculator with complete functionality to do everything an arber could possibly want to do with 2-way arbs. This calculator is
very very good, and very cheap to purchase should you want to help out the designer and remove the text from the bottom of the calculator. In anycase the calculator is the best
addition you can make to your arbitrage arsenal with the least concern. It is easy to use in a rush, able to be pinned to be always on top if you want, and yet easy to minimise,
or send to the system tray, or roll up into its window bar when you want it out of the way.
Don’t just think I am raving for no reason, download it, for free, and look at what it can do yourself. You will love it too. Plus it comes with a manual
if you want to find out all of its functionality. The only dissappointment with ArbsCalc is that is only does 2-way arbs. I have spoken to the designer and extending it to 3-way
invovles a lot of work, but if there is enough interest in his calculator, and people are willing enough to upgrade to the purchased version, he will definitely consider
extending it 3-way.

Trickybet is a betting calculator focussed website which offers its calculator services for free. A discussion thread for Trickybet can be found on ArbForum.

General Trading Assistance
The TraderZone – Sports Arbitrage World
Sports Arbitrage World offer several accessories that any arb trader can use, and a few tools which directly interface with their alert service ArbAlarm.
Firstly they offer ArbSurferPro for £67. This is an updated version of the original Zero Risk Arbitrage ArbSurfer browser. It has too many features to easily list here, but a few of interest are its built in calculators, currency exchange monitor, automatic bet history recorder, one-click screen capture, tabletted browsing, faster browsing speeds and a ‘closed windows pool’. It is worth checking out the complete summary of all of the features on the website for yourself. If you follow the link to Sports Arbitrage World and click on ArbSurfer at the top of the page, you will be taken to three introductory videos on ArbSurfer which show you how it works. Currency Converter
Secondly there is ‘ArbAccounts’, a free service within the TraderZone that works with ArbAlarm to track all of your activity. Arbs found outside of ArbAlarm can be manually entered, but arbs found within the TraderZone will be automatically added with one click, and account balances will be updated to reflect the bets.
Finally, there are several Plugins available. Some examples include a module that automatically provides bet settlement info once results are known, a sports calendar module, and a chat module which allows traders to chat and share arbs in real-time.
RebelBetting Arb Book.xlsx
RebelBetting has made a sophisticated excel document available for download from their website (and from SAG too) which helps track and record your arbs. It comes with a comprehensive guide to its use on the first page, and then several features for you to enter your arbs, middles, sides, back/lay arbs, and track the profits of all of those arbs. It does require at least Excel 2007 to operate though. Older versions of excel can be patched, but they lose some of the function.

Surebetor
Created early 2010, this nifty little website uses a smooth looking interface to allow you to record your arbitrage trades and bookmaker transaction online. The real benefit of this, seems to be the ability to then keep track of your entire trading history – and the ability to drill down into some advanced statistics.
Still under development when I found it (Sep2010), I can’t wait to see where this website goes with its development. To see how it works, just go to the website, and you can use a simple demo version of it all without even needing to register. After that, I think the whole thing is still completely free.
BossBuster Video Series
The BossBuster video series provides a free video series on Matched betting/Bonus scalping, plus a paid video series on arbitrage trading in general.
Launched in September 2009, the BossBuster Video Series has been going strong ever since and is probably the best arbitrage related video tutorial system available.
Ex-Accessories
ArbMgr
ArbMgr, or ArbManager is an add on for SureBetPro. The idea is that it will log all of your trades, update your books and track where your money etc is.
Clearly this will not only save you time from doing it yourself (so you don’t have to rush between arbs which often come rapidly in small clumps) but it might help you avoid
making errors in your accounting.
Vitegrity
Vitegrity is an arbitrage focussed website browser designed to speed up the process of locating the correct bets for your arbitrage. Initially targetted to
work with SureBetPro from RiskFreeProfit, this browser imports the data of your arbitrage then performs a realtime concurrent search of the pages you are browsing highlighting
all of the words related to your arbitrage and linking straight to them. You are thereby enabled to navigate straight to the correct section, and instantly find the specific
match your arb is on.
Vitegrity retails for $24 with an ongoing monthly subscription of only $3.
