I have a background in teaching and computers, as I have a Masters in History and a have spent 20 years working on Windows based machines (and putting them together) but i'm now going over to Linux.

@martin Hey, thanks a lot! I have never been trading before, only betting and it's very different.
I trade on soccer now only. For now, I am trading only lay the draw, lay the draw at half time and over 1.5.For now, the success is limited, I am on a minus. I am also testing a lot of things out and playing for 1€ per bet. The reasons are sometimes I pick random games (beginner mistake xD), also I believe I cash out too early. Many games do not end in a draw and I could profit much more not cashing out immediately. So I either have to cash out partially in games where the favorite is leading for example or have a much better selection of games. Ideally both! I am learning a lot, seeing some patterns, relations of stats to bet results. It is really fun. Hope I can improve my results soon.
I listened to a couple of podcast series and find them very helpful. I have many ideas in my head and started to build my trading strategies. One of those is to filter games where U 8.5 corners are expected and wait for 10-15 minutes to be played. If two corners or more have been given, then back the U 9.5 corner market.
The same can be applied for the U 2.5 goals market. In a game where the U 2.5 goals result is likely and which saw for example 2 goals within 30 minutes, then I would back the U 3.5 goals market, possibly cashing out (at least partially at half-time, and maybe at minute 60). I am building filters for those games and will try them out! Will be very interesting to watch. I will share my results if promising.
