They do quite well trobbing as well if you are feeling brave

John Folan

These have been doing OK. Not many filters. Let me know what you think/how you get on

Anyone know what happened in the 16:45 at Cheltenham today?

Fiercely Proud looks to have been removed at 16:54, 9 minutes after the race was supposed to go off!

Was he arsing about, caused a massive delay and eventually got removed at the last minute?

Nigel

@Martin ok thanks Martin

Martin

hi all
does anyone know why in the strategy builder when i input something in the notes section i have to type it 3 or 4 times before it stays there, has anyone encountered this problem before, it has always done it
thanks

@John-Folan currently in Corfu putting on the 2 stone you've lost. Almost tempted to fire up the VPN but there's too much food around

Martin

@John-Folan think I have one I'm testing until January, if I do and it is good will share it

@Martin said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:

@John-Folan been up and down for me, always seems to be the way with the changing seasons

This is why I’d love a good all weather strategy. Although even that is different winter to the summer

How’s everyone doing? Had a bit of a break. Been quite nice actually. Left the automation going and done nothing else. Managed to lose nearly two stone as well through diet and exercise. Ready to get back on the daily scalping and manual stuff again.

Adam

Anyone back Kingdom Calling in the 14:15 at Listowel today?

1000 BSP winner

Martin

@Tony-Hastie I used to be like that!

'well it's in the red so it must be rubbish!'

Tested for one day...

Tony Hastie

@Martin Was about 4 points but Im getting better

Adam

@Martin Personally I get grumpy if I end a single month with a loss on a strategy

I'd usually stick it out for a quarter though and then look at the history to see if such a losing run has ever happened before and take a view.

If it's a strategy with bets all year round and there's been no return for a quarter, I'd definitely be thinking about moving on as there are better opportunities.

Martin

Wondering if anyone has an amount of -points that they quit a strategy on.

I think if a strategy goes to -30pts it's usually one I will put on hold, wondering what other horse traders have as their own personal limits?

Martin

@Tony-Hastie they must have been a long way from Manchester then as the weather here is awful

Tony Hastie

@Martin The races I managed to catch didnt look to have any adverse weather. Only 2 meets and not many selections across all my(3) strategies but a profit day is a good day!

Martin

Yellow weather warning = Avoiding the horses today!
