    Another day when I was not fully focused on the task in hand! My dear lady wife is still in hospital and most of my time has been spent there with her. Happily the one trade that I lost was a minimum bet level one and I was just able to recoup the loss by the end of play (not helped by the abandoned meetings at Hereford and Catterick).

    Today's R.O.I. is so small that it only shows up under an electron microscope!

    Until tomorrow ...

    DUE TO BETFAIR'S PICTURE LIMIT OF 50, PERFORMANCE GRAPHS WILL BE SHOWN AT THE END OF EACH MONTH.

    What a day! The low R.O.I. was due to my only placing minimum bets today. Why? Well I suddenly had to take my wife to hospital and therefore I was unable to watch the markets as I usually do. I suspect that I could have nearly doubled the R.O.I. had I been able to be in front of the screen (however I did manage to cover the Hospital Parking fees! lol)- but hey ho that's the luck of the draw. AND my lovely wife comes first - every time.

    And the good news ... I have been able to upload a graph (at long last!). The only drawback is that each 'picture' has to be verified by Betfair to ensure it is decent so each day's graph will be delayed by a day. The graph(s) should start appearing in earnest tomorrow - and will hopefully be self-explanatory.

    Until tomorrow ...
    ADDED NOTE: Due to Betfair's limit of 50 'pictures' I will only be showing graphs at the end of each Month. They may well go up daily - but - at the month end the individual days will be removed and just the last day of the month left on. I hope that makes sense.

    Sadly I had a losing bet and it is debatable (to me anyway) if I should have taken that particular bet. It was on the border-line of acceptability and I choose wrongly as it turned out. Maybe a little cockiness on my part or maybe plain old-fashioned greed!  I suspect a little more caution (which is code for discipline) is needed from now on. That said the Strike Rate is just about bang on forecast (97.50%). My other 'concern' is that the R.O.I. is higher than my model predicts. On the one hand I am delighted BUT on the other hand I have to ask myself if my RISK is too high. To date I have put it down to surprisingly favourable Odds. However, it may be 'something' that I am doing that is not (or should not be) allowed. I will check into this aspect and report back in due course. That said, a near 15% R.O.I. on the day is not bad. Happy

    Only 10 more days to go until the end of the first month.

    Until tomorrow ...

    Another relatively quiet day - but then that is to be expected for a Saturday.

    Until tomorrow ...
