Hi Shaun and welcome to the forum. Hopefully I’ve answered your questions below. Please let me know if you have anymore.

Hi John,
This is my first day in BTC so apologies in advance for some of the noddy questions! I've done my best to scour the thread to gather as much knowledge on your TROBS strategy as possible, so hopefully most of this is just reconfirming what i understand to be the case. Firstly, you have a great strategy and to soon hit 100 points in the timeframe you have is no mean feat! (Hopefully i haven't jinxed it by writing that!)Nooooo

A few questions if i may:

• what automation software do you use for this? The automation file you have posted elsewhere seems to be a Bet Angel one but i think read somewhere that you prefer BF Bot Manager
  absolutly. Much prefer Bfbot manager although it works fine with the Bet Angel automation. Sadly can’t upload Bfbotmanager automation files to the forum
• in terms of automation, presumably it is a case of loading the specific horse and market selections into the Bot each morning, and then it will fire on the selections that meet your 3.5-9 odds criteria from the off?
  yes literally that simple
• i'm not sure if this is an inappropriate question or not (!) but what staking strategy do you use (e.g. flat stake or % of bank), and is this something that presumably is programmed into the bot also?
  Yes I was 1% staking. It can be programmed in. I’ve got to the point where I don’t need to increase on these anymore so I am now flat staking
• your results seem to start from Aug 2019 - is this when you started the strategy or just when you began to record the results in this way?
  i started then and started recording then as well. Sadly cannot back test
• am i right in thinking you use http://www.in-running-trading-tool.co.uk/ to filter for your potential selections?
  that is the one. Just working on sheer dob stats with my filters

Many thanks in advance and keep up the sterling work!
Cheers, Shaun

Today's. A big list but a lot will fail on odds.

plus 3 for me. Some might be plus 4 depending on odds. But I'm literally a cats whisker away from the 100

I miss @Charles-Cartwright . He is probably on one of his clandestine ops.

Yeah, just noticed he's been offline (here) for two months. Wonder if he is still a member?

Might be just leaving everything alone as its a bit weird still? Or as I said he's gone full 007

@john-folan Busy day on these!

Today's. A lot will fail on price but that seems par for the course at the moment.

Frustrating day. Two winners outside of odds. -1 point

Any today @John-Folan ?

[John Folan]

Point back today.

[John Folan]

Poor today. Annoying as the two that drifted out of range converted. here is tomorrows.

[John Folan]

Looking like a two point loss today. Of course the one that was in range and drifted to 12’s so was a no trade stormed home. Be waiting to break the magic 100 points for a few more days.

[John Folan]

Tomorrow’s. I hadn’t deleted today’s non runner when I took the screenshot. 3.5-9 odds range.

[John Folan]

Bastard non runner!!!

@john-folan said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:

Good yesterday. Shockingly bad card today so only one potential selection. On the plus side only one point of yesterday's profit being risked! 3.5-9 odds range only

Getting close to that 100 points mark now

@lee-woodman said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:

@john-folan I’m resisting getting involved in anything else for a couple of months as I’m concentrating on just a couple of football strategies so need to focus on those. I just decided to put a bit extra into betfair, track the p/l of these separately and see how they go as they are easy to trade

I'm only running a few strategies as well. Everything is still a bit wonky from the shutdown I think so being ultra careful.
