@panagiotis results will differ slightly. Price/runner numbers/the actual selection(if backing or laying favourites for example) can change. The trick is to run two versions of the strategies one called results with all the filters in and one called qualifiers with variables that can change on the day(going/runner numbers/etc) and then use that to load them in and let your bot filter them. You should be as near as dammit then.
There will still be some differences as it depends on price movements and how much money is queued at your entry and exit points but you will be in the nineties accurate and it will iron itself out over time.

@panagiotis not sure what you mean 9/9 to 10/10. If you think there is an issue with results of a strategy can you submit a support ticket? Link should be in the op. Bare in mind qualifiers etc can change during the day based on a number of factors, one big one being odds changing.

Hello, guys
I have a question. Are we sure that the software calculate well the results?
Im asking that because on the strategy Lay The beaten Fav today we had 3 trades (2 Wins and 1 loses)
But on the statistics chart the number goes from 9/9 trades to 10/10 trades.Anyone notice this?

@dan-mackinnon Patience, Persistence and Perseverance. Once that clicks half your battle is over. Nice post mate. Glad it’s going well.

Today has been a good day in the long journey of trading.
I messed about in December with how I wanted to trade going forward and felt pretty confident. I’ve been disciplined and although 1st Jan was a stinker it recovered well. From 2nd - 6th Jan was either break even or profitable. 7th has been a slight drop. Overall, up in the week.
It reminded me of an extract from Ray Dalio’s book ‘Principles’ where he describes progress as a mini cycle, within a bigger cycle, within a bigger cycle, etc. but the trend moves up. This week is an almost mirror repeat of last month, which when I zoom out is a repeat of last year.
I guess I’m trying to say, stay patient. The software has been fantastic as a guide and predictor for what obstacles and trends you’ll likely face.
That or watching Palace lose yet another home game in the rain has left me searching for any scrap of potential happiness.

Finally a profitable day on the short odds. I love Chelmsford

@karl-pick @Daniel-Mills , thanks. I had done all that. Just went back in now and it still wasn't showing. Then a changed a few filters then changed them back. Went in again and its now showing.
Weird, maybe something I did but at least its fixed now.

@fraser-cord ...have you clicked the Actions button on the furthest right?
It goes green when you have done it? It will then be in your daily qualifiers list. -
Been looking for a dobbing strategy that is viable. This one is Jumps only with minimal filters(one additional). It concentrates on the 2-8 odds range(and yes I know you are basically backing to win at 2.0) so hopefully the horses with the most liquidity. Have a nose.

@fraser-cord have you ticked the button to turn it on in your daily qualifiers? Caught me out the first time I used it

Hi all
Wondering if anyone can shed light on this. Been going through the filters to check the selections match what i have been backing/laying. I know there may be the odd difference but making sure im roughly inline.
With back C and D winner, the software isnt showing any selections since 29/12/22 yet there have been lots shared on the daily email since then. I just copied the base filter from the presents as I assume that is where the daily email selections come from?

@john-folan this is brilliant advice thank you.
I am currently not doing any Pace Lays and Beaten LTO Favs Lays, because of the hit it can have on building my bank, but with this I can see how it works better if I use this methodology. -

@john-folan thanks .I have been doing that. Just wanted make sure . Cheers
Have to say Liability is the way to go on most things laying over 3.0. Especially with a good spread of odds. Just means you can manage your bank easier. Less wild swings to the red. Takes longer to build but there’s always a trade off somewhere.

@john-folan thanks .I have been doing that. Just wanted make sure . Cheers

@robert-cooke said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:
@john-folan is that 2% lay stake? . So the liability would be a bit more than 2%
Yes. 2.8% as a maximum liability Or you can do it as a 2% liability whatever works for you.

I do 2% of a separate trading bank. Each of my strategies have their own
