@mick-mcmahon I'm still in early stages at moment but confident it's coming together not just from this but in a complete portfolio.

If I could offer one piece of advice. Leave the averages. They get skewed and while they may illustrate capability I don't think it's as accurate as simply looking at percentages of how often things happen.

Track between 14-16 different stats on one filter and only really tighten one or two up at the beginning. It's easy to filter each down then and look at what the p/l yield is for each. Some will make no difference. Some will make a huge difference.

Some will hardly happen so when it loses its a question of do you really want that in your system??

@Richard-Latimer Just wanted to say love what you're doing with this thread. I'm more of a lurker than a poster but thought I should. I've been at this about a year and half and never really got a strategy from breaking even into profitability so having a few months off. But sitting back and watching this thread go by has given me some encouragement and some ideas to chew on when I get back to it.

Nothing for tomorrow

@Fraser-cord Interesting. I would say that the mutual ground takes away any advantage the home team would normally have. So if anything it's better.

@Richard-Latimer hopefully this won't jinx things, but home advantage not really a thing in Malta as only 2 or 3 stadiums used for all league games. Home or away, your often playing at the same ground. So fingers crossed it works to your advantage.

2 more selections tomorrow from Malta. You would think this would be one of those leagues where you don't get too many and the results are inconsistent. Not so currently.

6/7 wins on the raw data and 5/5 on the refined:

Israel game postponed

Next home lay is in the States:

MLS has been profitable but not by much. Average odds are 2.6.

It's been an issue with pretty much all summer leagues. Much lower odds and much more inconsistency.

@Akiva-Anderson tell me they're not going to lose then

When I sawe those odds and the way smaller odds have been falling recently I was a little concerned after the Barca Debacle. 3/4 and profit to finish off the month. Nothing tomorrow.

Another topsy turvy one but it's improving. It definitely is.

Last month was just under 5% from 34 selections.
This month just over 10% from 54 selections.

It can be better. It will be. With every month under the belt the system is a little more robust.

Richard Latimer

Mainly lower odds today

Richard Latimer

2 more days....

Richard Latimer

Stupid Barcelona.

On to tomorrow.
