5/6 so far at the moment with a loss in the Vendsyssel game. The game itself dyed down a bit after the goal so I drip fed it off and took a respectable £3 loss. Happy with what I'm doing at the moment, normally I would have got cross with a losing trade and tried to go harder on it to avoid the red but dripping it out meant I was able to snatch a extra few ticks out of it to damage the loss.
Few more trades to go this evening. Lets get the green!

I am going to give it a go on the Norwich game as its on tv.
So I back under 2.5 goals at kick off?and how long shall I stay in for? Is it so many ticks I need to set the exit point at or is it based on time?
I look for 5%. I was looking for 10% originally but it meant staying in the game for 10 mins, now with the 5% it is usually around 5
-
@gary-brown Sorry I just had my first loss. Ye I look for 10% of my stake but cash out earlier if the game action is too much.
-
I am now out after 10-12 ticks.
Is that how you guys do it? -

@gary-brown I watch mine live my next and last game of the day is Vendsyssel FF v HB Koge

After a successful day with changing my strategy to 2% and greening up for 5% of my stake therefore reducing my time in the market Im hoping for more of the same today.
I also layed the draw in the Real Madrid game last night @ 3.6 for 1% and greened up for a half point bringing yesterdays profit to just over 1 point. Steady progression is the key.

love this guys. I was hoping of trying to give it a go as I don't do unders. Well until now lol.
Whats the next match on your list to give it a go with? I assume ots matches that you watch live inplay.
-
@eamonn-hogan Yes I agree there. I'm testing this filter but thinking of doing similar to you with larger stakes further down the line or slowly dripping the liability out say every 3 mins to a max of 12mins.

@matt-wood said in My Trading diary:
wow ok, are you putting your back stake on early or at KO?
Sorry I just remembered you adjusted to taking 5% green right? Im going for 10% on mine still.
Yes mate. Now staking 2% of my bank and getting out for 5% of my stake. The Less you are exposed in the market the better

@eamonn-hogan Average green up time is 9mins at the moment. How does that compare with yours?
3-4 minutes I’m greened up

Currently 100% success rate with games actually traded. Although I do watch the games and trade out if i see too much early action.
I have thought about changing the 2 to a 1 and it might be something I do once I have more data.
Currently 14/14 traded and 4 that I didnt trade due to low odds but would have been winners.
That’s good to hear. At what stage are you greening up? -

@matt-wood said in My Trading diary:
This is my filter, doing ok so far but very early days. Hopefully it will have similar success to yours seems to have
What is the success rate at the minute?
Would you not be better changing that 2 to a 1? You don’t want them scoring or conceding any goals in first 20 mins.

@eamonn-hogan well done! how have you found the discipline side of trading? that is always something that worry's me when people come from a betting background to trading
Tough lol. That’s why I am doing this blog to try and be more disciplined in my actions.

@matt-wood said in My Trading diary:
@eamonn-hogan Is that 40% if you trade out right after the 1st early goal?
I haven't had one yet as all trades so far have been successful. Kinda need it to happen so I can see what I might need to do.
Once I have more data would be curious to compare if you were interested as I think we run slightly different filters for game selection, I don't seem to get as many as you.Well done though you seem to be going well
Yes 40% if you take a red straight after an early goal.
What filters are you using?
