Aug 2024 £3000 - ? Bank Challenge

@Richard-Latimer remember that nothing loses forever, just as nothing wins forever and if you constantly do all your losing at the top end of your staking and then try to win it back at the lower end, then you’re simply not going to make it. Eventually you’ve got to stand behind something (find one system that you really know well) and ride out the highs and lows - if you’ve said your bank was 3k and you stop when you get down to 2k then it was never a 3k bank in the first place. Your bank is simply how much you can handle losing.

@Richard-Latimer said in Aug 2024 £3000 - ? Bank Challenge:
After the last weekend I've made up my mind to fall back a little on away lays. Looks too early and while I was expecting blips this has rocketed then gone into free fall.
No point in diversifying if both are struggling.
So paper trading away lays and proceeding with caution on the overs.
My bank is now looking a bit scary so have to stop the blood loss before I can look at the profit again.
Feeling a bit differently now. The bank on away lays needs to be reset now anyway in terms of staking. Honestly I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I'll look at the next 2 selections which are in Japan and Korea tomorrow morning then decide based on the odds I think.

Overs finished for the weekend and other than missing a couple of winners I'm happy with my decisions this weekend:
-
I can't even be bothered to go into the away lays again today.
So far so good on a slow crawl back with the overs but I missed Iceland. Too busy looking at what I couldn't change in Fenerbahce. There is a lesson here to concentrate on the upcoming rather than stressing on where the ball is already rolling I guess.
-
That's the overs
And that's the away lays.
I'll take that after Friday.

Lay Away:
Again, price ranges to the right.
-
I'm off out tomorrow so posting it all up tonight. Lay Under 1.5:
I've put required pricing to the right. Some of these seem like very small ranges but it's only when there's not too much either side. The more selections I have the greater the range generally speaking.
-
Some times you do all the right things. As annoying as tonight is and it is annoying for sure.....it's nowhere near as annoying as knowing I made mistakes according to what I considered may have gone wrong.
First loss in my qualifiers on laying away in Romania. Price bang smack in the middle of what has worked up to now.
Price in Finland back smack in the middle of what has worked. And then Shitty, bang smack in the middle. Yes Wolves have nothing to play for but City do and you thought they would have come out with a bit of fire. In any case I follow the statistics.
Typically enough the ones I played safe on laying away all won haha!!
And I missed an over in Switzerland. Very small mistake.Heading to the point where I'll be re-setting the bank soon.

Lay Away:
Required prices:
TUR 4.2-7.4
ROM 4.8-7.4
FRA 3.3-6.2 -
Lay Under 1.5:
Required prices which I shall be sticking to come what may!
FIN 4.4-6.0
ENG 5.6-9.0 -
@Nikki-HALSALL I saw you were on it already. Nice and easy for a change. Although I got 7.4.
-
@Richard-Latimer I am
-

And here is the years profit tracker for each. Not included the last home lay as it's gone and almost certainly not coming back.
Still working on another 2 in the background.
Then the non qualifiers of all 4 may be able to serve as reverse systems in their own right. That would be a portfolio of 8 in the football.
-
Just so nobody thinks I'm glossing over anything....
That was away lays last month. At one point over £500 up and then down by £162.00 by the end.
-
Lay Under 1.5:
On the basis of where the price is right now. If it comes down another couple of ticks (6.8) I'll be leaving it.
S**t.....thought I'd pressed send. It's 1-0 now.
Can't imagine anyone is following after last month anyway!

Nothing overnight or tomorrow
