@terry-cooke i have no idea wether doing 1.51 would be better just throwing out the suggestion of keeping it as simple as possible when developing a new strategy. 4 way split stake from the off with no idea of strike rate at each odds or timeframe leaves a lot of moving parts and variables to deal with.
Its a mistake i made with fhg When developing it.Its a strategy that's been tested in UFT and ive just made a filter for it and just making my choices from the filter results so its profitable but I just wanted to do my round of testing for my confidence.

@james-woodroffe nice odds

Contractors v Haras El Hodood in Egypt has come up on my FHG filter for today. Haven’t traded Egypt top flight before but O0.5 FH already at 1.65 well before KO.

@martin-walker said in The BTC Football Trading Thread:
@terry-cooke have you thought about just putting your full stake in at 1.51? 1 loss wouldnt be wiping out your current profit and you have less variables to monitor until you have the data to suggest split staking is better
Huh thanks for the idea Martin, the way I have it set up at the min means that the longer without a goal there will be more value. Still a newbie at this so will have a look, ideally I would like to do 100 trades as I'm doing now, but as I have just started this method, I can go back and paper trade what would have happened if I just go full 100% stake at 1.51 then I can compare the results
-
a nice addition to the filters would be to add a league filter so you dont have to manually tick/untick them when creating filters. Would make it more user friendly imo

@terry-cooke thanks for the in depth response. Finding a lot of this isnt to do with filters at all. It does help with original selections but after that a lot need more inspection
As I've just built the filter I'm just double checking that the results it pulled though 100% match what I would have done manually. So far so good and saving me a load of time!

@terry-cooke how are you choosing these games?
I've got a strategy from UFT that im using. I built a filter to show previous 5 home games for the home team and previous 5 away games for the away team and then times a goal is scored in the FH. Shows results of 8 or more, but im looking at games where there are 10 games where there are FHG and then digging down to see average goal times. I then have a quick look to see where the teams are in the table to see what their appetite is and then generally if I like the look of it I jump on it. I did just start with getting on at the starting odds, but Ryan said prob better to get in at 1.51. So before the game starts I split my £10 stake in 4 and then back at 1.51 and then 30 ticks above.
im not jumping on all of them as im not tat confident at the min and looking at the profit made based on £10 staked I've now made £10.29, so one loss would have wiped it out, but seems that most of the goals have come when my first stake has been taken.
Hope that makes sense.
