The data is sub par compared to most months but would still show a profit I assure you. It's just a question that I haven't felt confident on quite a few trades as I like to call them outliers.

Also, occasionally things are thrown up as potential banana skins to watch out for in the future.

I've not been able to put many losses down to anything and would trade them again 100% based on the overall data I have.

@richard-latimer Ok fair enough and apologies

@richard-latimer This is where I have a problem with your strategy 6 losses out of 64 trades and your making a loss most of us would be looking at significant profits at that strile rate.

Noooooo......you misunderstand. I 'm a) not making a loss and b) have had more losses myself. I'm simply referring to my data.

Another reason to be cheerful as long as it doesn't signal a general decline is that February appears to be quite the worst month this system has ever suffered going on current data and yet there is still a good chance to make it a profitable month.

From 64 potential trades there have been 6 losses.

Only comparable months are Sept (a big loss for me personally so this is huge improvement) that had 7 losses from 120 trades
November with 7 losses from 110 trades.

So for Feb we are talking almost as many losses and only just over half as many trades.

@richard-latimer I’m with Bulb too and it’s basically doubled.

I also wouldn’t listen to Martin Lewis. His money “advice” assumes you put no value to your own time. Does my head in with some of the nonsense he comes out with

In fairness that website has helped me out on a few occasions and I think he's a decent bloke. Got away without paying a PCN from those robbing bastards just by following guidance.

Bumper day tomorrow. 23 potential trades and I have to believe it would be highly unusual not get at least 6 or 7 of them qualify, maybe 8+

A good day could set the tone of the weekend nicely and follow on to an important March.

I can't yet command the profit I need longterm with these as too many things are chaing recently. That said I should be able to do better than this month has allowed:

[Richard Latimer]

If anyone wonders how I can keep such unwavering (I'll admit it wavers from time to time, more on a time basis seeing as mine is short haha) confidence in what I'm doing it's because the list of trades I can't yet take continue to come in and to an extent the likeliness of taking such trades in the future grows.

Poland - I had until recently put the league into the sin bin so to speak but a recent result taking 0-0's into a poor position and the rest in to a good one brought the league back to my recognition. Another win today means I'm ready for now to start trading it next time out.

Regionalliga Bayern doesnn't have quit enough data yet but the data continues to collect in good ways.

Schaffhausen - Home odds too close to a mid range I don't do. I go for 7 winning trades either side 2.59 as this was is only around halfway there.

Liefering I just plain missed! My loss today £11.07.

Slight red for Feb but a good day tomorrow can rectify that.

[Richard Latimer]

Another day another arse. I must stay positive, odds were low and with a good weekend I can still finish feb in around 9-10pts profit.

First mistake in a long time today entirely avoidable and not a loss. Too busy clinging to the hope of a goal in Xamax and missed another winning trade.

0/1 BOOOOOO!!!!!!

@matt-wood I just got a text today and the increases are astronomical! Was all fixed term. Bulb being run by the gov at present may not help as the original company went under.

Fingers crossed I don't get one of those then! Just read my policy and terms and from what I can make out I should be ok. Will wait for April though and see what happens.

@richard-latimer better sodding not be I changed provider last summer under a fixed tariff. Massive increase when fixed term ends with NI increases from April and fuel increasing by the day bit bleak at the minute

I remember when all this kicked off moneysaving Martin Lewis basically said don't do anything now as changing won't do any good. We were on a fixed tarif but they reserve the right to increase it.

Will have to check my small print then as I thought I was on a fixed no price increase promise until the end of the agreement. Although even if that is true they will certainly smash it up as high as poss once that ends no doubt.

Only way for us all to beat the system right now is to become rich sports traders haha

@richard-latimer Haven't you got a fixed for x amount of time tariff?

No. With bulb. Was a decent price before but the cap is off after April. As far as I was aware all companies were doing the same.

Thats rough. got mine fixed in Oct for 24months. I guess after that though it will rocket up Thanks Vlad.
At least you seem to be moving along in the right direction on here
