It's not often that there are no selections that meet the necessary criteria - but today was one of those times.

As forecast one bet lost today. If only I knew in advance which one it would be! The good news is that I still ended up with a profit - albeit a small one.

A nibble here and a nibble there. All in all a very bitty day - but still a profit so that's ok.

If I can average £72.00 per day for the rest of the month I will hit £5K for the month! Then I'll be 10% of the way to my target of £100K.

Not much to be had today but a profit is a profit. The Month-to-Date Strike-Rate is looking good and on target. I adjusted my selection criteria at the start of this month to try and improve it to 98%. It seems to be working. (Famous last words!!!)

Moving slowly but surely in the right direction. I am expecting a 'correction' any day now! Regardless of how carefully I make my selections, something will jump out and do the unexpected (i.e. Win when it should have lost!)

Comment:

Today I have added a 'Month-to-Date' (M-T-D) column to the data.

This additional column immediately indicates a somewhat high Strike-Rate (98.39%) for the current month. Obviously, one can never have a Strike-Rate that is too high - BUT - it does give an early warning of a possible loss or two around the corner.

A 'correction' is, in my opinion, soon to hit. Forewarned is forearmed.

That said, my forecasts tell me to expect a Strike-Rate of around the 97.50% mark and I have (as previously stated) adjusted (tightened up) my selection criteria in an attempt to lift the Strike-Rate to the 98.00% mark. We shall see if this is achievable long-term. In the meantime I shall be on my guard!

Slow but sure gets the job done.

Comment:

Everything fell the right way today! Better odds and a few more bets than usual that met my criteria. If only each day were like this.

Looking at the 2nd graph it is possible that we are beginning to see of the 'impact' of the compounding effect I mentioned in a previous Post (although it is still early days!). In essence, as time goes on and assuming the Bank grows, it should grow faster and faster in real cash terms. I know that for some I am stating the bleedin' obvious - but the point is that 'discipline' and 'patience' are, in my opinion, the greatest virtues when it comes to betting.

If, and it's a big 'if', but if I can make it to the £10,000.00 mark by the end of the month - I will have achieved in 1 month that which took me 2 months (see January and February) before. Whilst I don't for one minute think this can be extrapolated 'ad infinitum' it does at least hint at what could be possible further down the line.

I have added two extra items of data: The Daily Profit (or Loss) and the Accumulative Profit (or Loss) Year-to-Date. The Accumulative figure is my Closing Bank (each day) less the £100.00 Opening Bank I started with on the 1st January 2019.

Having said all that I will most probably make a thumping great loss tomorrow!!!

Sunday's can sometimes be relatively quiet as was this one. However, a profit was made for which I am grateful.

Well I have managed to get the graphs back up and running - AND - with the help of Forum User "top2rated" seem to have sorted the problem. So, a BIG THANK YOU to "top2rated" - top man!

Steady as she goes. An acceptable day's profit.

    There seems to be some issues with the graphs. Looking back a couple of days, the graph image
    markers are showing on the page (well mine at least!) but not the actual graphs themselves???

    In addition, I now have 2 days worth of graphs "Awaiting Approval". I have not changed anything in
    terms of the format or content - so I am at a bit of a loss as to why they are:
        (a) not showing when they were previously and
        (b) not being 'cleared' for use on this blog.
   
    Answers on a Postcard?

Graphs, as always, will follow once 'cleared' by the-powers-that-be!
(They seem to be taking their time approving the latest graphs - now a two day delay?????)
Also, some of my previous graphs have 'disappeared' - very strange as I am nowhere near the 50 image limit.
