Does anyone try to get better odds on their strategies in play? Had a couple today where home teams I would have layed went 1-0 up and got quickly pegged back, both times I could have layed at odds on (Dnipro game went from 6.6-1.96 after an early goal!).

Think this could be a good strategy for those that set up alerts and have time to place trades in play.

It's annoying because I wanted to lay them. Then the price shot up so I waited....but it just kept going up until they fell behind.

Anyone trade non league? See the odds on Chippenham flew up just before kick off and they're only going higher despite Chippenham being on the attack.

@andrew-page my O1.5 nearly mirrors yours, yesterday was a good day for me, I was trading my selections from after filtering out the worst performing leagues for my strategy, hoping today follows suit, I'm on 6 out of 6 this morning.

@Alex-Rule back testing... droooool please... Soon...

[Alex Rule]

@Martin Yes, and I also find it hard to go all in on with a strat that often gets less than 30 selections a month. Back testing will answer the question once and for all if it's worth sticking with.

[mick mcmahon]

@andrew-page now that's a list and half!!
Are those your final bets or your starting point?

Lets see if come out today unscathed

Cruch end of a the winter leagues

@Martin Thanks, but when I click the link I get the not found message and not the json data. Does it work if you click it?

@Alex-Rule my concern with that strategy is the covid effect, it started really well in covid and dropped off after covid

[Alex Rule]

@mick-mcmahon Tomaz Lay 1.5 strat has been doing well in the long term. Over a years worth of data now as well.

Hang on in there - once the footy update happens it's going to be like opening Pandora's box. The world will never be the same again. You'll be able to back test and then forward test just leaving the strats live in the software (as I understand it). Meaning you can run several strats and collect data at once and not touch them.

Then you will be able to link those to BFBM and and in just a few clicks in the morning your set and forget as well as inplay strats will do done for you!!!!

@mick-mcmahon 3.0 is here: 1712600619872-filter-settings-3.txt

[mick mcmahon]

Thanks @Martin. Do you have the filters for them and I'll track them too

@mick-mcmahon lay away 2.0 and 3.0 have been doing well, I did miss the past weekend but apparently they also did very well over the weekend too.
