The reason I haven't been keeping a close eye on system 1 is that my system 2 has been under performing as well. I just hope it was the unseasonal hot weather in spring that's to blame.

Just to confuse matters... "System 3"

with a further breakdown in prices just in case there are those that still lay drifters and bad last-time runners.

Did I say this system was a good earner? Well, it seems as though I haven't been keeping a close enough eye on it lately. [:wink:]

Let's hope I don't have a repeat of last year's Oct-Dec results.

The average of 5 limits (5.5, 5.0, 4.0, 3.5 and 3) snakes into the lead...

A big danger in setting one lay price limit is that it can go horribly wrong.. I started off by choosing a price limit of 4.00 probably because it was showing a profit whereas I prefer to take an average of price limits. I looked back at another system that showed a loss of around 50 points at a 4.00 limit while the 5.00 limit had a 100 or so points profit.
These two charts should give a more balanced picture when compared to the 4.00 limit chart.

The biggest problem I have with past results is that it can affect your judgement... should I persevere with the same type of bet even though it is close to wiping out my bank, should I increase the bank and stake in the hope that I will hit a long overdue winning streak, should I stop when I get back to zero, should I stop laying in the winter???
The following chart is an example of one of my systems that had been a good earner previous to this year. I will continue to update them when I get the relevant data from the BfSp history site.
[b] 1 point stake / 100 point bank / Lay limit 4.00 [/b]
