@Richard-Latimer I did something similar but it tanked, waiting for more results and will flip it when I work out leagues and odds range

@Martin How did your updated Lay the away filter get on this month in the end? Been away for large chunks of the month so just curious more than anything. Cheers
14.1pts Profit for Feb
@Martin curious to know, how has the 2nd half of Feb gone? As you know I am tracking a modified version of this.
Since 18/2 there's been no movement but before that 40pts for Feb.
0.98pts profit second half of feb

Those with less h2h could probably be opposed too but that's a lot of selections and my culling them has helped make things more manageable
This is also, I should add, with only 8 losing days on the away lays since 8th Dec
-
I'm up to almost 400 lines of data now having completely excluded all matches with less than 10 h2h.
Almost 200 of these have hit at 88% with Ave odds 5.2 (max 11)
On the flip side almost all of these can be potentially opposed with a 59% s/r laying the home team at ave odds 2.5 (many many odds on with a few pushing the overall odds higher but coming in at way better than 59% obviously.
2 solid looking systems from one data set so far.
-
@Stephen-Knowles I would like more data on that one, hard as it doesn't get a lot of selections
-
@Martin thanks for the reply sorry I'm new to this I started a very simple lay the draw strategy (relatively high strike rate) at the start of the year all going well, I guess I need to work on my mentality on the strategies that can potentially have more variables and consequently be more volatile?
-
@Stephen-Knowles high variance strategy went to 400 down to sub 100 and back up to 300 profit
-
That was a disastrous lay over 3.5 day... 4 losses out of 5! Good job I'm just testing, only been doing it a week and its 9 points down.

@Martin Could you just clarify the 'Restrict to Going in Play' option. I thought it meant games that you couldn't trade in play on BF, but when I remove it, I see a lot of games that I think will be tradable in play, at least for match odds and overs.
Betfair change their intentions all the time so I wouldn't use this filter personally.
It does seem a bit flaky. When I switched it off just now, West Brom v So'ton appeared. Not exactly a pub team game.
Worth messaging @Adam about that one as that should be available.

Everywhere I've seen represents them as 2 halves of the same competition, literally "opening" and "closing".
There's an apertura and a clausura in each season, for example Liga MX is split into apertura and clausura, but the season is still 2023/24.
Some leagues have 3 stages, I forget which now.
