Well you all should know by now that I lose constantly.

Apparently that's down to the fact that I'm a **kwit according to others of a higher intelligence than I will ever be. I have my own theories.

I have won occasionally, not regularly.
All possible strats have a negative EV. So according to Benni on another thread you need to have a stop loss and stop win set. The problem there is that when you enter the market you are just as likely to lose straightaway as win straightaway, so the only really successful strat is one that can run continuously and somehow avoid too many of the losses.

Slightly up. I think, hand on heart, that if I could go back over the course of last year and just accept some moderate losses at a few key times that I would be well, well up. Greed and naivety, I guess. Money management is a big part of any of my strats but I've made great profits only to have an unbelievable run wipe all precious profits out. I am finally starting to look at the downside of a system and figure out nessasary bankroll/stop losses etc and try to figure out how to wether any storms that may arise. I am definitley not down but I'm not up enough to give up the day job just yet.

That would be no good to me as I seem to hit a lossing run 9 times out of 10.

Why can't we see games profit and loss like you can with your sports account? Surely the could it they wanted to, so I suspect they don't want us to know.

No umberella big enough for storms like that, Jazza, lol.

Actually the only real profit I've made, was when I managed to hit a few high odds charlies/DWTA selections, using a free bet strat. Except it wasn't really a free bet as lay losses continued for ages after the hits, eating up a chunk of that lovely profit.

Someone backs every 515 charlie as there is only £2 available at this price and this has gone within a few seconds of being available.
