Set & Forget Football Strategies

I can see a bit of chatter on the U3.5 strat. I’ve been watching this one a bit over last few months and felt like Saturdays were horrid for this strat.
Thought I do a little investigating. Just did some very basic calcs on my phone using Martins results spreadsheet and it looks like it is DOWN $95.54 on Saturdays alone.
This seems to hold true both pre WC and post WC. Ironically the only period it was in profit on Saturdays was Nov/Dec during WC.
Take Saturdays out of the results and it looks a very healthy P/L.
I’ll double check this on the laptop when I get some time but seems to be a consistent trend worth consideration
very intertesting, something i will have a look at as ive been paper trading it for 4 months. Of course we could find this out in mins with the football software back testing, cant wait for that bit of kit, hope its coming soon

@sean-fitzgerald is it those 3pm KOs? I've always disliked those games!
That was based on all Sat games.
I thought this would interest you based on your previous comments re: 3pm Sat games.
I’ll have a look at the 3pm games specifically later
When you remove the 3pm games and just look at all other Sat games (excl 3pm) they run at a loss of $30.71
So the 3pm k/o games make up a large portion of the losses on Saturday (roughy two thirds) but even removing those Sat still runs at a loss.

@martin ok thanks. Only asked because I was using that to choose which strategy to try next.
which ones are you currently doing?
-
@nick-allan my results are on the set and forget sheet in the OP

Hi Martin, yeah Ive added it to my own, as its worth monitoring at least, I was thinking, well the thought hit me on Saturday, surely it could be possible to try the Thomasz method and do the exact opposite for under 3.5, then just heard earlier on a new video thats exactly what you have been tracking, Ive created a filter for that method myself, also got a btts thats utter garbage too lol,,, that could get flipped....
so are people laying over 3.5? anyone out there doing this and any idea of result? i can imagine its early testing and ill start paper trading this to get an idea if its valid, juts wondered if anyone had a number of months results?
-
@dave-tancock do you mean for the trading ones? I'm only including the ones in the daily email for this as too many people were following the poor performing ones, perhaps I could do a separate sheet for all strategies regardless of performance but I want to keep the main sheet for the top performing ones.
-
The main results sheet only has 3 strategies when I look. Is there somewhere else to view the monthly results for the current set and forgets or am I doing something wrong
-
@caroline
Do you mean something like this? It might do in the meantime as i havent got an actual spreadsheet for set and forget
Enter your bank in the box marked 1 and will show you your percentages
If you then put the lay odds in box 2 and how much of your percentage you want to risk in 3 it should then show you how much to lay
so in this example im using 3% of my bank
Lay odds are 3.9 so if i stake £2.59 then my total liabilty will be £7.51......or 3 %
-
Afternoon, Is there, or has anyone created a spreadsheet for the set and forget football systems that allow you to create/calculate percentage of bank and stakes as liability?
I've had a bash but my spreadsheet skills are not great and I'm getting stuck around the IF function
Many thanks

hi guys, just a quick one, just wondering why under 3.5 is getting canned.? the back testing results from last year looked pretty solid. I thought the idea was that during bad runs the other strategies effectivly cover the struggling ones? I get it with Dans ltd its been hammered lately, could be due to the world cup. also I was thinking could something be done with other set and forgets. ive got a few ideas for new ones. maybe Martin could run a cometition to come up with the best one or something? get everyone working together, just an idea...:)
bueno suerte

SHG
Hi Allan,
Newbie question.
What does SHG stand for? Duh!
No need, I just realised Second Half Goal.
-
@dave-tancock only from the member's filters it's still on here, it needs more testing
-
Surprised we are getting rid of the under 3.5 goals filter. I’m a couple points up this month with that one.
