Looks like James got this spot on 😄

@mikael-nordstrom Hey buddy

No worries, the English is good (perhaps better than mine 😉 )

I'd stake 2-3% on the entry trade then I would track the data then see what time to get out, I wouldn't be thinking at this point oh if my loss gets to 1 then I'll get out as that might not be the best use of your time (it might be less than one) I would rewatch the one where I track the data (day 3 & 4)

@sipox11 Excellent stuff here.

If you want a cocky answer to "how long is a piece of string?" You can always respond with: "Twice the distance from the middle to one end" 😉

Joking aside though @Martin-Futter is certainly correct with that. Although from my own experience as a total beginner I would say to err on the lower side of trades per day/week. Its easier to see what is happening and understand. Many, if not all, of the pros/profitable traders on here advise that sort of thing whilst learning.

@keith-anderson Yep, seeing what we want to see. Dangerous game that!

@rick-watson said in Question regarding filters (Goal times):

james here is a bot for bet angel it lays current score at 80min of play as you know the timer in bet angel just keeps going from start to finish and doesnt recognise half time . the problem with this bot i have found is that it lays by order of favoritism and the current correct score may not be fav. anyway run it in PRACTISE MODE 1ST and tweak it to suit if you master it give me a shout. as for the selection process i think you gotta be looking more at elo strong team come backs and the back a late goal when drawing filters. 0_1614846684133_Lay Current Score in Final 10 Mins.baf

Cheers Rick.👍

@mark-uren AC was 1-1 buddy not that it matters that much but at least they didn't lose

@zoltan-balogh In the meantime yep

How much is matched on the S Markets ones?

I would say seeing your posts where you want to automate, S Markets doesn't have software I don't believe that will do this yet.

@martin-futter said in LTD FH:

@diaconescu-cristian

not sure about LTD but FHG is usually 1.5+ at 15 mins, often 1.6 or above.

I only play FHG at 2.00 or above (same as all my trades) which usually occurs around the mid point of the half (22-25 mins) depending on the match.

I your blog will be really interesting to read as well, I like the way your mind works with this stuff @Lee-woodman - reading the first post now

@diaconescu-cristian I would master one sport first then look to move into others - if at all needed 🙂

Thanks mate. I am mixing them up. I did not know that there was this option on BTC. Thanks for your help

@mark-maguire one thing you could maybe do to help with this is make a note every time you think you got out at the wrong time, was it more often too early or too late? then look to find the sweetspot! thanks for your kind words, if there is anything else you think a video on would be helpful let me know as we try to do a video or two a week on youtube and usually answer questions from members.

Second the Ligue 2, La Liga & sometimes Norway 1st & Sweden Superettan

@andrew-jones We've mentioned this to @Adam he'll get it sorted.

Im going to take it really easy today. Its been a strange couple of weeks for trading and its a big month so i want to get off to a decent start and just get steadily back into it.

Good luck today!

@michael-westerberg said in When to call it a day / Trial period:

Hi guys,

Just looking for some input is all - I've been looking at a couple of trading strategies, some new from BTC, and some older ones (but giving them all a clean slate).

My question is - how long are you guys giving strats before making a final decision? At the moment I've got 1 on 100% SR, a few 75-85% SR and the rest are 60-70% (though in the red overall).

Trying to strike the balance between letting the variance ride, and cutting my losses early if they're clearly not working!

Tbh, I do think my game selection isn't up to scratch just yet, so any handy hints would be very much appreciated!

Cheers all

When you say cutting your losses, does that mean you are trading serious real money when you are testing these things?

I'd say 250-500 games is a good point to assess data seriously, obviously the more the better in this case!

Okay thanks

@wayne-ironside 9pts is good, how long a period were those 100 games over?

17th October to the 8th November.
