@andrew-cripps Welcome!
There's some good stuff in here and some super simple strategies to follow as well which should get you going, let me know if you get stuck!

Who you are? Andy Cripps
Where you are from? West Sussex
What stage are you at in your trading journey? At the beginning
although I know my way around an exchange and am modestly successful within forex.
What's your background? Been matched betting full time for 6 years but am a bit bored of it now, plus it's become much more effort for much less reward.
Why did you join BTC? I was looking for somewhere where I could be introduced to some strategies without getting overwhelmed and avoiding 'get rich quick' hype.
What do you hope to get from the community? It's always great to be part of a larger 'mastermind' group to learn from and then hopefully graduate to a point I can pay it back by contributing and helping others.
What are some of your trading goals? Consistency, consistency and consistency. -

@lewis-mitchell I don’t have anything built on the stats as of yet as a lot of it comes from my knowledge of how players start and then I match them up that way then start to delve in.
There’s a really good strategy that one of the members used as well
A little background. I have the last couple of years used Dan Weston projected hold models to find value in players with good serve. My results got much better going from straight stats to the projected hold model. My tennis trading is very systematical in the sence I only use five different strategies. 3 for ATP and 2 for WTA. So I use the ratings different from strategy to strategy. But as a example the strat I use the most, and with my second highest ROI for the year.
- I find WTA players with 3% pluss in their procjected hold. Ex: (dont remember exact numbers) Stephens had 63% PJH, and Azarenka had 59% PJH. Stephens was between 2.4-2.6 in pre game odds. In other words, hugh value on Ostapenko.
- I checked for injuries and so on.
- My strat is then to back Stephens every time she is one break under, or and she loses the first set.
- I would first let the players serve once each.
- On the third serve Stephens was down 3-0. I would then back Stephens for 1% (using the BTC staking calculator) on Azarenkas serve.
- Stephens broke 3-1 and I took my profit.
- Stephens lost 1 set 6-3 and lost here first serve. I went in again with 0.5% on odds over 8, and she broke once again.
- Stephens won the match 2-1.
Rules for the strat is as follow:
Let both players serve once each.
Go in on first break, but not after 4-4.
Take profit after backed player goes up.
Or, take stop loss after backed player goes down.
The last thing is the most important. It is in stoping the loses your profits lies.
I have used the BTC model for Miami, and it have worked very nice. The thing I like with the BTC engine is that its availeble when I do my research. Usually before my kids wake up. Instead of waiting for a email. And it have been very accurate (surpriceingly since Adam still call them experimental?!?) Looking forward to follow them closly this autum

@ryan Great stuff. The stats software looks really impressive and has already helped me to find value selections on the U2.5 markets to scalp in the opening 5-10 mins.
Re. 1st set tennis trading - do you use a filter to pinpoint potential matches for this strategy?
-
@lewis-mitchell Nice!
I think you'll pick it up nicely again then, happy to help and answer any Q's on the tennis matey.

@lewis-mitchell Nice to have you!! What sports did you trade before?
Morning Ryan
Thanks for the welcome. I almost exclusively traded football - often pre-match trading and a little bit of in-play scalping. Looking to return to that kind of arena, with potentially a focus on Tennis (intrigued by your approach to backing and finding 1st set winners).

@lewis-mitchell Nice to have you!! What sports did you trade before?
-
@lewis-mitchell cos there is no data to support int football so its a shot in the dark, abiout 5 or 6 at the mo, 3 pro ones and 3 of my own

@nick-allan I don't know many people that enjoy the international fortnight! Thankfully we get some action again from tomorrow. What strats are you typically employing on the footy ATM?
-
@lewis-mitchell good buddy just waiting for the winter leagues to start up again after the international break, bloody pain in the arse that it is
-
@nick-allan How's it going, Nick? Thanks for the welcome!
