I am going to look at the goal picks again though tomorrow. I'm happy with lays. Been doing them over a year.

Gone for another goal in Klagenfurt.

This is part of my plan by the way rather than going off the rails.

Just one more game for me in my unders. sociedad

Are you concerned that a game with 2 early goals will wipe your profit in this system? Seems unlikely to me given your filters but possible i guess.

What would you do if it happened, cash out for the loss right away?

I also strongly suspect another goal in CSKA Sofia despite no SOT from CSKA yet. Will be a surprise if they lose 0-1. It could happen of course but it's unlikely.

1-1

Less is more approach for me this weekend with a 7% bank growth and three days of green. 10/13 trades won, might not sound like much to some but I’m well happy with that for the amount of time I spent trading. I struggle to find time to trade over the weekend as family time is important after working all week. So I came up with a traffic light system which I set up the night before. I simply use notes on my phone and categorise the games per strategy in time order. Then have a flick through the stats and traffic light them in terms of how confident I am based on the stats. Then when I find time throughout the day I’ve got a clear idea of which games to pay the most interest to and if the in-play stats look in agreement I’m on it. Not been doing it long but think I’m starting to find what works for me. Thought I’d post incase it helps anyone who is in the same position with finding time to trade

Definitely of interest. Thanks for sharing.

@dean-adams brilliant idea mate and especially when the family needs you also over the weekend.

Always feels harder to post when the day hasn't been spectacular but can't afford to second guess myself as that's when things get worse.

Galatasaray seem to be picking up a bit

Richard Latimer

@ian-keedwell yeah I just read your post.

@richard-latimer stats dont look great though. Galatasaray yet to register a shot. Guess that would explain the price.

@richard-latimer cuz of the goalkeepers injury mate

Richard Latimer

What am I missing here? Why is there 14 minutes injury time?

Not been able to sit and trade properly but managed to open 3 trades today. 2 reds and 1 green. One of the losses was frustrating with Slavia Prague scoring 4 minutes after I wanted them to.

There was a couple of others I saw but didn't get chance to get on. Sod's law both of those won, which would have left me just about break even for the day. A tad frustrating in a way but also not going to let it knock me seeing as I ordinarily would have been okay.

I guess the biggest lesson for me today is that I should probably only trade if I am able to sit and concentrate on it rather than try and grab an hour or so in between other things.
