@John-Folan no just my results on bfbm this month
software is 3pts diff but I didn't trade it Sunday and the 14pts includes a couple of days in July so it's where I would have expected it to be tbh.

@John-Folan 14pts up at the moment
Compared to the software?

@Martin How are the irish dobs doing at matching the software?
I make you substantially better than the software on BFBM. I think its down to the runners being filtered in the software and not on the bot and the all runners rule in the market conditions you have. |You may have stumbled across something.
-
@Tony-Hastie You probably also need to change the columns displayed on the "Tailor Your Results" bit, don't think I included any, so it will have saved as that as default.
-
@Tony-Hastie try running the results again
-
@Tony-Hastie no mate, the group breakdown just shows whatever the user last had it on, so in this case they were looking at how the days of the week performed (a good idea and something I should have a look at on mine actually!)
You need to scroll down to the bottom and click the box at the top of the Results Breakdown and select Month to see the default view. It will then run the results again and show the monthly breakdown.

Ive also been working on this one since I got here. Shared the original version but this ones been tweaked. Was very brutal on the course selection! Not as impressive as other graphs Ive seen but in profit...and fun to try my own strategy!
Back the leader2.jsonNot able to see the individual results for this one either for some reason...
-
Is the Lay the 3yo data corrupted or something? The graph is showing no worm and just a week of results...with the days in the wrong order. And Im getting no individual results to have a gander at...
-
@John-Folan true. When you find something that works, just get out of your own way!
-
Just did some analysis of my Lay the third fav bot and found that filtering the going through BFBM causes some different bets to be placed when comparing with the software - presumably the source of the data is different? I have switched back to filtering through the software, not BFBM. Just thought I would flag for anyone doing it that way.

@Dan-MacKinnon iff all you are fiddling with is staking that’s a good sign!

Day 1 tracking @John-Folan 's ZPL with BFBM vs BTC backtesting. So far everything going to plan. 3 trades, 3 wins and they all match up perfectly. I'll keep doing this up until I go on holiday in September.
If anyone gets anything different let me know. I'm using the downloads from the OP with no modifications.
I've had a quick look at the results vs backtesting and it's all going along nicely. A lot easier to check results when it's in profit!
However, my old bad habit of needing to tinker keeps appearing and I've changed my bank allocation four times in about 10 days. I am Claudio Ranieri when it comes to trading! Therefore, I've set everything up and won't look until I'm back from holiday.
You should be able to amend the forward testing sheet if anyone wants to.
We all know that compounding is the key to long term success. But sometimes big changes start slow - very slow.

@Karl-Pick here is a version that I think removes 7f, test it to see though if it does: rules_export (5).json
THANK YOU! It is appreciated, just hoping it works now!!!
