    I post about NI games every week. Definitely overpriced games. Often full-time teams playing part-time teams

    33 games
    25 wins
    76% SR
    LLR: 3 (The most I've recorded is 4)
    Max DD: -9pts
    Oct P&L: 1pt (Suggests 75% is breakeven)

    FHG

    Forgot to post yesterdays trades which were

    Lech Poznan vs Jagiellonia - NM + FHG
    Crewe vs Stockport +1pt - No FHG
    Walsall vs Crawley +1pt + FHG
    Wrexham vs Sutton - NM + FHG

    +2pts
    Oct: +2pts

    FHG
    3/4
    10/16 = 62% SR

    I know I've seen it before but does anyone have a calculator that says what odds you need for a SR to be profitable?

    Today's trades
    Jagiellonia vs Zaglebie +1pt
    Tranmere vs Doncaster +1pt
    Larne vs C. Rangers +1pt
    Shamrock Rovers vs Drogheda - match postponed

    3/3
    Oct: +1pt

    I'm also testing another strategy which is the over 0.5g if queued at 1.11.
    I was doing some further research and noticed that all of these games had 100% record of a goal being scored. I looked and for a 90% SR require odds of 1.11, however, these seemed to get met quite early so wonder if I could push it out to 1.15. This is the sort of thing the backtesting would be good to mess about with.

    Weekends Trades
    Karvina vs Hradec Kralove
    Bodo/Glimt vs Sandefjord
    Charlton vs Reading
    Sevilla vs Real Madrid
    Basel vs Servette
    Columbus Crew vs Montreal Impact
    New England Revolution vs Philadelphia Union
    Vancouver Whitecaps vs Los Angeles FC
    Lillestrom vs Valerenga
    K. Oslo vs Raufoss
    Sparta Prague vs Ceske Budejovice
    Viking vs Tromso
    Shamrock Rovers vs Drogheda

    Edit I might also track whether there is a FHG. The odds are in the 1.4-1.5 range which is a lot more forgiving that 1.11

    @Dan-MacKinnon Sorry for late reply, away at the moment.

    Currently I’m testing a strategy of laying favorites with zero pace rating. Much lower odds and looks promising so far.

    To be honest I’m pretty new to horse racing as well, but can see logic in things like laying beaten favourite, with angle being that these horses are overrated. Even if I can’t get a version of this to stick. Other things like age, weight and previous finishing positions is stuff I look at.

    5/7 -1pt
    It looked like Plymouth vs Swansea was just about to match before a goal was scored because I got 2p. Oh well, 1pt loss from a list of 10 potential qualifiers isn't too bad considering this strategy has been left idle for a year

    Here we go, let's get back into it with some O1.5 S&F

    Today's Trades
    Linfield vs Glentoran
    Larne vs Crusaders

    Sod's law they'll lose! If I can figure out how to use BFBM I'll get them on as SHG too.

    My rules are to queue up at 1.35 to win 1pt.

    I managed to get on the SHG but forgot how much of a pain it can be to remember. I'll just do O1.5 S&F for now.

    Yesterday's results
    3/4 - slight profit but for clarity we'll call it a scratch day.
