@darri Cheers, lots to take into account now, gonna be a hybrid i think ha ha

@john-hurst I should point out that I don’t LTD that much now I use the filter but I tend to either LCS or back the next over if I’m confident a goal is on the cards and I never get involved in the first half. The filter is a guide now and I’ll still merge trades. By that I mean that Ryan might have something on his O1.5 that Frode might have on his O2.5 that I don’t have, I might make a note of that match, research it and if it looks good I’ll shortlist it, then at HT I’ll monitor it for a potential trade sometime in the 2nd half if it qualifies.

Martin is spot on John.
With LTD and their is a clear favourite in the match if they go behind in the game the odds move against you and you end up in the red not the green after the first goal. That's if the under dog scores.
This is something you have to be aware of when selecting LTD games. For these games you could use your LTD filter but use it for LCS or second half overs trade.
-
@john-hurst different to the ones below but i typically only get involved in a game where there is a favourite. I think for an lcs your idea about looking for an even game works but ltd to get that big price jump you looking for the fav to score. A goal late on from a dog would still lock in profit. So i would look for a home or away side to be priced less than 2.2 pre match. I find it easier to focus on one team(the fav). If that team is dominant then jump on. Works even better if getting in later than ht The market if the fav scores will favour you more than an evenly matched one. however both versions work from experience
-
@james-woodroffe will have a play around, might paper trade some too. I think my best success has come after the first half. Not too keen on these early trades. Feel i am decent at reading games so by that time a pattern has usually formed- might be my best chance, maybe!
-
@john-hurst what Martin said about in play stats is spot on and I like the odds range to.
-
@James-Woodroffe @Martin-Futter very helpful
cheers

@john-hurst hey mate different strokes but I like mine it’s pretty simple
Less than 7% FT 0-0
Overall Goals per match equal greater to 3
Overall 2H O0.5 equal greater than 80%
Average 1st Goal Time 2nd Half equal greater than 45. -
@martin-futter cheers for the response martin, which odds should i be looking at?

Is there a reliable LTD filter? or does anyone know of the most vital criteria selections for that.
This is what i have so far its probably crap haha. If anyone can add anything to it or take anything away im open to critique. Tia
the only thing I like is an added odds filter to see the teams are fairly even (as in if a goal is scored we profit either way). also you really want to make sure the in-play stats are on your side, i think people may neglect that element but it sorts out a lot of the losers from my experience!

@gary-brown It definitely makes it easier having an open discussion about trading on here.
I know I've rambled a bit on here about some of the things I've done in that day, even if no one reads it I still find it handy to put it in writing.
The last 4 days have been interesting for me. Saturday and Sunday I traded almost everything I could. I was 3 pts up on Saturday but 2 down on the Sunday. I've taken a different approach today and yesterday by thinking more about trades and prioritising games to focus on. Im just over a pt up over the last two days but I feel far more in control now. The trades I've put in I've known were the right ones. I've put a lot more emphasis on the in play stats which has meant which has really helped me focus on when to get in and when not to.
EDIT: Just as I'm typing this, I miss the goal in the Viktoria Koln game
At least I was right. -
@richard-lillis what's happened mate?
-
Missed the first SH goal @ Freiburg so will lock in my 1pt green and catch up with you all tomorrow
But then again VAR lol
Still missed it lol... Not that much intensity, anyway 1pt green and onto tomorrow
