GL. Your downfall seemed to be rushing plus, well, chasing. Stocks go up, stocks go down. Idea is to have more good days than bad.
Recently took a hit early on a Friday with an in-play trade that went south on me. Made back a portion by just continuing with the day with the same risks I had intended. Continued with some part-time as planned Saturday and Sunday on football. Then Monday, back to business still disregarding the loss. By mid-day Monday, was above the close on Friday and continued on. So, in theory, little time lost on the journey. GL. |

Challenge Update:
While it was a profitable start it wasn't perhaps the way I had visualised it ... doing okay then a hit in horse race (wasn't going to get involved as I am more selective now ) while played in the rugby when I shouldn't have as well .... so ended up over-riding the greyhound bot and going hell for leather to get back into a positive position .... funny enough I was watching the MU game while doing this thinking should I get involved ... lot of thinking and watching but in the end I didn't (gee what control ). Also traded out early footy game for no gain/loss ... hope to let the bot do the work tomorrow.Starting Bank: £1000 09/02/2014: £1061 Greyhound Racing: £121.49 | Horse Racing: £39.46 | Rugby Union: -£100.00 | Soccer: £0.00 Total P&L: £60.95 Greyhound Racing Showing 1 - 15 of 15 markets Market Start time Settled date Profit/loss (£) Greyhound Racing / Poole 9th Feb : A5 450m 09-Feb-14 19:29 09-Feb-14 19:30 16.89 Greyhound Racing / Pbarr 9th Feb : A6 480m 09-Feb-14 17:46 09-Feb-14 17:49 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Kinsl 9th Feb : A5 462m 09-Feb-14 17:37 09-Feb-14 17:44 91.84 Greyhound Racing / Kinsl 9th Feb : A6 462m 09-Feb-14 16:58 09-Feb-14 17:00 30.17 Greyhound Racing / Pbarr 9th Feb : A2 480m 09-Feb-14 16:47 09-Feb-14 16:51 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Pbarr 9th Feb : A5 480m 09-Feb-14 16:02 09-Feb-14 16:05 -92.80 Greyhound Racing / Pbarr 9th Feb : A4 480m 09-Feb-14 15:13 09-Feb-14 15:15 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Pbarr 9th Feb : A5 480m 09-Feb-14 14:06 09-Feb-14 14:10 -67.50 Greyhound Racing / Hove 9th Feb : A5 515m 09-Feb-14 13:58 09-Feb-14 14:04 12.66 Greyhound Racing / Hove 9th Feb : A8 515m 09-Feb-14 13:28 09-Feb-14 13:34 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Hove 9th Feb : A8 515m 09-Feb-14 13:12 09-Feb-14 13:15 14.47 Greyhound Racing / BVue 9th Feb : A3 470m 09-Feb-14 13:04 09-Feb-14 13:07 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Hove 9th Feb : A11 515m 09-Feb-14 12:41 09-Feb-14 12:46 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Hove 9th Feb : A9 515m 09-Feb-14 11:57 09-Feb-14 11:59 14.47 Greyhound Racing / Hove 9th Feb : A4 515m 09-Feb-14 11:42 09-Feb-14 11:44 14.47 Horse Racing Showing 1 - 9 of 9 markets Market Start time Settled date Profit/loss (£) Horse Racing / Tampa (US) 9th Feb : R2 6f Mdn Claim 09-Feb-14 17:59 09-Feb-14 18:11 30.63 Horse Racing / Sthl 9th Feb : 7f Hcap 09-Feb-14 16:40 09-Feb-14 16:46 24.12 Horse Racing / Leop 9th Feb : 3m Hunt Chs 09-Feb-14 16:20 09-Feb-14 16:29 24.61 Horse Racing / Sthl 9th Feb : 7f Mdn Stks 09-Feb-14 16:10 09-Feb-14 16:13 9.55 Horse Racing / Leop 9th Feb : 3m Grd1 Chs 09-Feb-14 15:50 09-Feb-14 15:58 -96.53 Horse Racing / Sthl 9th Feb : 1m Hcap 09-Feb-14 14:35 09-Feb-14 14:37 9.80 Horse Racing / Sthl 9th Feb : 6f Hcap 09-Feb-14 14:05 09-Feb-14 14:07 12.06 Horse Racing / Extr 9th Feb : 2m3f Hcap Hrd 09-Feb-14 13:55 09-Feb-14 14:00 12.06 Horse Racing / Clair (RSA) 9th Feb : R1 1000m Plt 09-Feb-14 10:20 09-Feb-14 10:33 13.16 Rugby Union Showing 1 - 1 of 1 markets Market Start time Settled date Profit/loss (£) Rugby Union / France v Italy : Italy +19.5pts 09-Feb-14 15:00 09-Feb-14 16:52 -100.00 Soccer Showing 1 - 1 of 1 markets Market Start time Settled date Profit/loss (£) Soccer / Osasuna v Getafe : Over/Under 1.5 Goals 09-Feb-14 11:00 09-Feb-14 12:45 0.00 |

I believe it is the same bot that killed you last time in Australia....

Definitely not bet much on Aussie mkts nowadays
.... seriously though in looking at my results over the last couple of months (although I do tweek the bot settings/rules) have seen that I would have done quite well if I stop it at £150 daily profit ... so off it goes with a very nice run to make just over the £150 ... so stopped it and turned it to Sim only ... it won the next one so figured why not turn it back on only to be hit with the highest odds/max lay I have it set up (£105) ... and then I proceed to try and get my profits back to the level it was only to get a couple of more hits with the bot selections (however this time I go in a bit too big) ... down probably around £500 ... as opposed to be up around £230 .... yep I know I know ... |

This is the nice run I had earlier only to then stuff it up (yet again) .... probably the most frustrating thing I have done for a while as well ... ah the curse of a new challenge

Undern, I know it sounds obvious mate but you already know your downfall with these challenges but its your failure to address them, that it your main weakness, from what I can see..its the greyhounds and your need to chase a loss.
I think you have the potential to make a lot of cash regularly if you addressed these two weakness points. Ditch the greyhounds - There are plenty of other opportunities to make money, be patient. Avoid chasing your losses - Like someone mentioned earlier in this thread, accept that you are going to lose sometimes but don't chase, just carry on trading/betting as you were and you should make up the difference. Anyways, GL |

I agree ... got to know when to get involved and when to let it go and continue along my merry way. I do think the greyhound bot has merit and will continue with it ... but need to bang my head on the wall each time I think about over-riding it .... been working very nicely over the last month so disappointed I feel the need to fiddle with it now.
Well ... this morning I have been playing (some cases very heavily) using the rest of the challenge bank in order to either blow it all or get back into a reasonable position to continue ..... lets say I had some ups and downs early and TBH was typing up a new challenge thread (it was going to be a monthly version) ... only to hit some nice wins and have continued this .... albeit reducing my liability as I go so not to waste all the profit made .... so yes I am still in this challenge ... will update now before the UK greyhound bot gets going this morning with the first lay coming up soon.Perhaps yesterday's scare might finally trigger something .... but then again it hasn't done in the past. I want to do these challenges with a mix of systematic and off-the-cuff style betting which creates a bit more interest for me. One thing for sure is I have no intention of playing much at all in the Aussie Mkts (only did it this morning to play catch up or bust) .... will update very shortly. |

Challenge Update:
Yep .... a good start and I tried to think I can do better only to stuff it up and then chase on some greyhound and USA horse-racing before doing a make or bust attempt this morning in the Aussie markets in order to get back to a sensible position which would allow me to continue as if yesterday was all a blur and secondly so I didn't have to close this challenge down to start up another today .... definitely hoping for a solid days betting over next 24 hours.Nothing like pure and utter guessing on the Aussie racing (well I do look at the money in the market and odds movements) to claw yourself out of a whole .... ![]() Starting Bank: £1000 09/02/2014: £1061 10/02/2014: £1053 UK: Greyhound Racing: -£678.05 | Horse Racing: -£222.67 | Soccer: £185.76 Total P&L: -£714.96 Aussie: Greyhound Racing: £287.76 | Horse Racing: £419.28 Total P&L: £707.04 Soccer Showing 1 -

and these are the greyhound ones showing my wins/losses in the first lot of races I did this morning ... as I said this will definitely not be the norm for this challenge as I have done this type of thing in the past challenges and although I might do well some days I have lost too much on other days ... thankfully this morning was a good one.

A profitable day .... and despite the greyhound bot not doing the biz ... it was more in keeping with what I hoped the challenge would be like as opposed to yesterday's disintegration and this mornings bet big and hope.

Must admit I struggle to stop myself from playing for a bit longer ... played a couple more times on the greyhounds ... last one being basically a lay on a big fav using the profit I made today ... it was a nice £75 win but equally it could have lost and then I would have ended up being frustrated for the rest of the night having wasted todays profits ... got to stop pushing for that extra bit and be simply happy with whatever profit I can achieve ....

Problem with going out and playing some competitive sport .... is that you get home and I struggle to get to sleep. Played a bit more .... hopefully tomorrow is also another good day.

By:
Having made a tidy amount on some of the bets placed since the last update ... gee even my lay of Aston Villa came in
... I find myself again up early playing in the Aussie mkts ... lets just say loss big and then won bigger .... might stop there before I get into the habit of taking on all low odds favs (although I do bet on other things as well) .... |

The robots just eat each other and shuffle money around the table over a few weeks. No loss no gain.
If not sleeping, then research events rather than becoming a slave to the pixels.... |

What a fun morning ... the greyhound bot is set up and running (just hope it produces a profit) ... a couple of horse selections are also set up in another bot ... while I am watching the Curling on BBC online as I have a bet on Canada in the ip Women's match .... trying to trade out for a bit though .... what an exciting day it is turning out to be

Mmmm .... well I am happy but somewhat sad ... had a couple of nice horse racing lays which made some nice profits (I posted two of them on the Anyone fancy a lay thread in Horse racing forum) ... but in-reverse have had a couple of greyhound bot hits. Frustrating as prior to this challenge the greyhound bots had been doing lets say very well yet as soon as I start a challenge it decides to start accumulating some losses .... oh well.

I have a strange feeling that I can't simply be happy with a nice profit .... I look for more and more only to be ultimately disappointed ...

You make decent selections Your bot has a good run then eats all your efforts Turn off the bot Turn on the research If your bot had worked, you would have been done long ago. It isn't going to happen. |

Challenge Update:
A tricky day where things were going nicely but then greyhound bot suffered badly while I piped in with a tennis bet which lost. Played heavy on a couple of greyhound bets and did a lay of Arsenal in the footy ... I was hoping that I could let the bot do the main work and I simply pick up and choose carefully some extras bets .... but not working out like that. I can also see the benefit of picking a couple of bets and going heavy in those and leaving it for the day .... in my mind I am not clear on the best tactic. I continue ....

So having been woken up early by my wife's snoring ... done the update, done some "odds" filtering to see if I can turn around the greyhound bot performance (going to trial someting today and therefore probably less bets), replied to some emails, printed out some documents and played around in the Aussie Markets .... love playing while listening to the 2KY radio online ... but got to make sure I don't get too greedy.
Current p&l for today is as follows ... Aussie: Greyhound Racing: £111.51 | Horse Racing: £50.23 Total P&L: £161.74 Got things to do today so probably won't play much .... heaven for-bid the day when the daily update has only 2 or 3 bets for the day ... |

If you aren't going to give up the dogs, then be more selective (i.e. what gradings does it NOT work on).
I discovered that in-running on horses over jumps, of 20 races I lost on from in-running, 18 were 2 mile chasers. 18! Thus, I changed my approach with those races and if certain criteria doesn't emerge as expected, it is no play. In general, when those races are happening, I am instead putting the time in to double-check upcoming races and profit there. Nuff said but relying on a bot is great for Australian relations at best. |
|
By:
Just for clarity - with the Aussie mkts - it is purely down to my "educated" guessing
.... as for the greyhound bot ... I am trying to look carefully at some of the filters on the data I have got .... lets just say it is laying far fewer races today but still currently losing ... |
|
By:
Today has been nice and profitable - although there are some more greyhound bot selections which could cause havoc.
Played this morning in the Aussie mkts and made a profit although lost a bit from that last post. While I have let the bot get on with it in the UK greyhound markets .... was losing early on but coming back well late on and only once have had the urge to over-ride it to go in heavier (which fortunately worked out well). I have played a bit on the horse racing - reasonably controlled staking and selections so happy with that. Aussie: Greyhound Racing: £11.51 | Horse Racing: £122.39 Total P&L: £133.90 UK: Greyhound Racing: £79.29 | Horse Racing: £111.15 Total P&L: £190.44 .... hope anymore bets I do today doesn't wreck the good work I have done till now. Out later on so will update fully late tonight. |

Everytime I post on here the next lay on the bot loses ... ffs

Challenge Update:
A good day of betting .... Aussie mkts went well despite me reminding me not to play them. Played and did okay on some of the horse racing ... while greyhound bot with some revised odds ranges ended up on its own with a small loss. Can't complain about a tidy profit ... still trying to pick and choose what I bet on rather than go in with a scatter-gun attitude. Busier than usual tomorrow so won't be around too much.

Been watching Aussie soccer (Lost a bet on it) and the badminton (Europort) with my wife - went on and did a lay of Claudys Princess in the Ball 10:09 (Aus) trotting race .... little lay at 1.38 and then did SP lay for some more .... only to see the odds go out to 1.8 or so before the off ..... and it duely galloped early so right at the back (so did some greening quick smart) .... as it came back to come second I think ..... some dodgy market movements before the off I reckon .....
