@joe-beeston Whatever is convenient really as that’s one of the key benefits behind set and forget but I would try to aim for the same day. I tend to do mine at 4am as that’s before I go to work but on days off it may be 10am. Over the course off 100’s of bets then I think the small differences will even themselves out

Hi,
Probably me not explaining myself correctly.
For example, if a match kicks off at 12:30pm, how early would you place your set and forget bets?
I appreciate that the closer to 12:30 the better, but is there a timeframe that is acceptable. For example within 2 hours/4 hours etc?
Hopefully that is a bit better question...my bad on the previous one
-
@joe-beeston not sure I understand the q
-
I appreciate that the closer to kick off the better, but what is the upper limit that you would place a trade before kick off? Thanks
-
@martin I would often find that to be the case aswell, but i think the winter leagues are worse for it than the summer leagues. One reason could be that the saturday games for a lot of leagues are just run-of-the-mill games whereas sunday games tend to be televised so perhaps there's a little more motivation....just a theory obviously!
I havent checked the data to back this up, perhaps its something for me to check at some point
-
@lee-woodman I want more data on mine as they are still all less than a year old but I do feel that is the conclusion I will also come to! How have you found Sat vs Sun in general? I always seem to do well on a Sunday on average compared with Saturday

When I’ve got the data for a few months it will be interesting to see how UK games hold up. I’m very weary of them as I think our leagues have always been a bit more wildly unpredictable. Especially for some reason the 3pm Saturday kick offs.
Ive checked loads of data on numerous strategies over several years and ive always found that to be the case with the UK leagues. I very rarely include them on any strategy as a result. And like you, the 3pm saturday games seem to be worse

U1.5 lays took a beating today
Yes they did probably inevitable there would be some regression at some point but pretty brutal

7 goals might be justification for why the price never dropped under 3.5

@martin fair enough.
Todays selection went unmatched but there were 3 first half goals so that's a shame!
I'm avoiding China due to the season disruption due to covid, maybe it's ok now but will leave it for time being

I had those selections too and managed to get matched at 3.5 pre kick off, so suffered the same losers...
@Martin at what point pre match do you determine the odds are qualifying or not? I plugged them all in before work, and any that were higher than 3.5 i just asked for 3.5 knowing they'd lapse if unmatched, but all bar 1 got matched before their respective kick offs... given the lack of liquidity in the market early in the morning i assumed that was why the odds were so high?
when I look in the morning

@phillip-chapman yeah I don't remove old selection ones I have already recorded and the 3.5 limit came in a couple of months after the start

@martin I missed the 3.5 rule, looking back at the list I can see that originally there were selections over 3.5 but more recently they are all below 3.5
Thanks Guys

Thanks @Martin knew there would be a logical explanation. I’d missed that also. Live and learn
