@Mark-Hewett Welcome!
Thank you for the great welcome post, we've put a lot of time into building this up over the years so great to see somebody appreciate it.
Happy to help where I can as well.
@Victor-Flores Wicked! Thank you for joining, where did you first hear about us?
I am glad you are following what's been laid out that is key as it will get you using the software the best way.
I changed my mind i am going pro with realistic plans and looking at this pragmatic solution
In Sweden, gambling companies must apply for a license to operate and pay tax
So is not 100% that Betfair and Smarkets will always be around
But I don't see an obstacle I know a solution (mindset)
Search laws and I am free to buy a studio with 1 room and kitchen for as low as 20,000 and above in Middlesbrough then I can get my address with name and ID number and get a skilled citizen agreement with my own UK bank account.
That is realistic to get access to matchbook and betdaq and betfair and smarket and use an apartment for pending between Sweden and UK
When not traveling I use VPN from home
So going pro and making 20/30,000 a year that is a pretty safe investment and solution to secure long term relations to always have access to exchanges
That is my new plan and strategic
Have a nice daythumbnail_IMG_0226.jpg
@Steve-Smeaton what's your bankroll for those stakes? are you letting bets run or trading out?
here is the bfbm thread: https://forum.betfairtradingcommunity.com/topic/2915/bfbotmanager-automation-discussion
@James-Utterson great stuff really good to have you here! If you need help with anything let me know!
@Peter-Adams Great to have you here and get you on the way to becoming a trader, is there anything you are stuck with or don't understand?
I'll happily help.
@Simon-Cowling Top man, how are you getting on?
Is there anything we can be doing to make your time here a success?
@Paschal-Troy what's your overall strike rate and how many results have you recorded? If your average lay odds are 4.5, then your average loss is going to be -3.5 points. If you've got a strike rate of 80% or higher then you'll make money long-term - BUT you will lose 2 or 3 trades in a row, regularly, which can be hard to swallow. Got to just do what suits you best and always, always, ALWAYS focus on the long game.
@Joao-Sarmento you will want to use this thread then: https://forum.betfairtradingcommunity.com/topic/2915/bfbotmanager-automation-discussion/2
@Paul-Cole if you get stuck or need anymore help just let me know 🙂
@brendan-gillen we do pre-match xg on the software, if you go through the getting started pathway that will teach you how to use the software: https://forum.betfairtradingcommunity.com/category/10/new-members-start-here
You can get the live xG in play on bookie sites like Bet365 for free
@Barry-Dewar Why do you think that is?
@Julian-Drake-Clarke only strategy videos where the strategies are lays. I guess you would want to look for horses who are slow and don't come back from behind much in the filters then test it for that specific idea.
@Mark-Maguire Ahaha you love the Waitrose!
@Andrea-Glassman Welcome to the group! 😄

@mark-pennicott welcome! great to have you here
Do it @Ryan, I feel comfortable with my transition into this even though I have very little to no experience at all but the discipline I learnt from matched betting and a bank that hasn't come from any of my own personal income makes it easier for me to give trading a go, move away from matched betting and give it my full attention now.
