@Alastair-Todd I said the same about the laying. It's theoretical money anyway for this so if you wanted to convert your back odds to lay odds and change you score so to speak based on £10 lay stakes I wouldn't have a problem.
If any of us are going to win I think we want to win fairly. What say you @Martin?
Richard, I've taken the international break to work out what my profit/loss would be if had been using £10 lay stakes like you are, instead of using £10 liability by backing. It makes me think that you are selling yourself short with your profit levels. You have been doing very well at this challenge and have had many winning days, and on that basis I'm sure your profit should actually be a lot higher.
I've had quite a few 4/4 and 5/5 days as well but have also had some notable bad days (8 March) where I would have lost over £85 on the day had I been laying instead of backing. However my running total on this basis is a lot higher than the total I am currently sitting at based on backing. Just to make sure I haven't messed up the maths (wouldn't be the first time), can you confirm that if I lost a trade where I had backed at 1.24 for example (4 March) the lay would have been 4.2 and so my £10 lay would have lost £42?
Yeah 5.2 so you'd have lost £42.00 (4.2x stake).
Pretty sure mine is where it should be after the horror weekend.
So you're now winning haha?
It looks that way at the moment although I haven't had a single trade for the last 11 days. Rather than a winning trade netting me about £2 or £3 and instead using the system that nets £9.80 per winning trade (and much bigger losses on losing trades), my running total with £10 stakes is currently +£294.40

Got 4 away lays. Not one is likely to make it on price:
3 are massive home favourites and 1 is an away favourite.
