These did alright yesterday and last month in general. Trobs still look the best value.

Classic Trobs: Dob/Trob or win any between 3.5-9. Avoid heavy ground.

Have you managed to get this Strategy into the horse software yet John, or is the only way to follow your trobs by seeing your post here each day?

I think my automation criteria are not using a similar pattern to the backtest. In my automation i use lay price < value but i have a feeling the backtester uses LTP < value. Would that be correct? I can easily change my automation if thats the case.

Yeah we use the LTP so that it's based on actual prices traded rather than what people in the market "want" to get matched.

I am getting the odd horse skipped on a bet in live that on backtest and i think i know why. I am sure someone here will know if my theory is correct.

Just posting Classic Trobs here from now on. I think everyone has the software now. Flat Pace is running just under it's lowest strike rate for a month anyway and is probably best left alone (although I am still staking them).

Classic Trobs: Dob, Trob or Win 3.5-9 odds range. Avoid Heavy Ground.

Flat Pace: Back to Win 2-25 odds range. 4-14 runners only. Avoid Heavy, Firm and Soft going. The awful run continues

Slow Horses: Dob any over 6.0
None Today

@john-folan how are the dobs doing john? are you finding more success in dob or trobs?

dont worry about the flat pace it will come back

Thanks. I know it will. Losing runs play havoc with me though. Always have. Better at ignoring that little voice these days tho

I find trobbing better value most of the time. Only slow horses seems to do better dobbing.

@adam
The difference in offer @ 4 to take available 1.01 to 4 is over 3000 points which i certainly wasnt expecting though i do understand there is a small technical difference between the methods. If that is correct then i will probably bin that strategy since the backtester reporting a profit using 'Take Available' simply cant be trusted if the strategy involves inplay.

@jonathan-jones Click the changelog button and see if you can see the latest changes on 13/08/2022 listed:

I just had a look and re-saved the strategy we were discussing in your config, because although the fix was applied to the software itself, the strategy was still saved from a version where the issue was present.

Give the page a refresh and have another look now...

Is there a way to check if i am using the latest version ofthe software? A fix was deployed over the weekend but its still looking very broke to me. I have cleared the cache (pretty sure it worked since it asked me to log back into the software and other sites i had open).
