What an end to Jan for Set and forget aye?
Dropped off a cliff the last 2 week for me. Looks like others feel the same? I have a back over 2.5 goals that's dropped and a lay over 1.5 FHG filter that's nose diving! You couldn't write it. (starts deep breathing ready for Feb upswing) -
@Greg-Mitchell funny you mention that game because I actually found the same thing and didn't lay it.
-
@Shannon-Townsend I never thought to check the value there, I'll start tracking those odds in my sheet to see how it looks
-
@Arran-Shackell I'm still testing the strategy with my criteria so no restrictions at this point. However I am taking the total number of games for the home and away team that finished the 1st half at 0-0 and then dividing it by the total number of games to give me a percentage and converting this to odds to compare against what the 1st half correct score market has. I am using this to gauge the value and only laying if the lay odds offered are less than what I calculated.
I've only done 82 trades this month but have a strike rate of 80% and an ROI at the moment of 7%. My average lay odds are 3.96.

@Arran-Shackell I avoided the O1.5 trade today but thought that between the 22 millionaires on the pitch, they might scratch out 1 goal in the second half. 46 goal attempts and 9 shots on goal, and still no-one could hit a barn door. What's that all about?!!!

An annoying Fulham Everton 0-0 finish. Oh well!

Thank f**k! Needed that!

@Rudra-Radasandaran also worth checking the lay under 0.5 goals in 1st half if laying the hal time 0-0 as every now and then i notice you can get slightly better odds for what is the same situation and over time every tick counts...
-
@Akiva-Anderson yep a tough weekend for me too spent half the time refreshing the screen to check the live goals services weren't broken
-
@Rudra-Radasandaran I will have a look into it, but at first glance on the Brugge game tonight as the odds stand, backing FHG is better than laying 0-0 at HT. 1.2 v 6.6
-
@Rudra-Radasandaran
What sort of odds are you laying at out of interest?
-
Awful weekend of trading. I think I hit every 0-0 available!
-
@Greg-Mitchell have you thought about doing a lay 0-0 half time score? I've got a first half goal criteria I created this month and have been using to back 0.5G first half and also lay 0-0. I've found the ROI on the lay 0-0 is much better than backing 0.5G.

Week so far and 3 for today.

Just looking at the comments below about how rubbish the weekend trading was for many. I must admit that because my O1.5 filter has been throwing up some howlers recently, I slightly lost my bottle with it and decided to track it without trading. The net result yesterday would have been -17 pts, so I'm very glad I sat it out. Having said all that, I was trading the SHG when 0-0 at HT market (thanks Martin) and that is still going great guns - perhaps I feel I have a little more control over the trade than with a simple set and forget at KO. Not sure. I'm sitting out the three Turkish games on my filter today as Turkey has been a bit unpredictable - now watch them put in 12 goals between them!
Silly me - it was only 10 goals between them!
