Probably being incredibly lazy here, but is there anyway to stop the football selections downloading the “Diff” and “Rating” columns for the various criteria?

@Greg-Mitchell so your laying the away? correct?

Martin

@Alex-Rule that's a relly good point to note, Aussie markets need to be recorded to 5%!

Greg Mitchell

@Alex-Rule As far as I am aware, it is just Australia, something to do with the Gambling Laws over there and Betfairs Licence.

@Alex-Rule Was it an Australian market? They have bigger commission on them.

Hi Greg, yes it was indeed. I had no idea they applied a larger commission!

Do you know why or if there are other national/regional increased comms? Cheers

Alex Rule

Morning all. Quick question if I may?
Any ideas why I sometimes see a random 5% commission applied to bets? Can't for rounding purposes can it? Cheers

@andrew-page I’ve felt the same very often, just have Saturdays off. I’ve run strategy on weekdays only after i was doing weekends as well and pretty much got the same variance.
Munich are in the sin bin for the rest of the season
yes its just annoying they pick saturday to play like Numpties saying that on a downswing at the moment the tide turning on games where streaks are getting bust for fun

and the teams landing are scoring before entry one of those things variance is a bitch luck like the tide ebbs and flows

and Bayern

Martin

@Chris-King yeah I don't know why Saturdays are like that, really hard to give a definitive reason. It may just be that volume of trades will always lend to more variance naturally.

@Andrew-Camp as i said to martin, i can’t help think there is generally more pressure and stress for teams and players on Saturday matches particularly, even if it’s just a little.

Chris King

@Daniel-Helps-0 Yeah i do the same now, i don’t want an overwhelming amount of trades on the weekends. It’s usually Saturday thats the difficult day. It’s another part of trading discipline. Discipline in trading is way more than exiting out at the right time or not placing that trade. It’s in every element.

@Martin I look forward to Saturday but the volume of trades can be a lot to deal with. I manage that a lot better than in the past though. I think i probably expect to do better because it’s Saturday, football’s main day etc but in reality thats not the case and feels more often a less successful day than weekdays.
I can’t help but think players and teams are under more pressure and feeling more stressed for one reason or another on a Saturday.
I agree, Sundays are different and i think closer to a weekday.
