That's exactly what I found - I won back all the money I lost scalping at York!dragontrades wrote: ↑Thu May 17, 2018 4:39 pm4:35 was the best scalping market of the day by a mile

generally don’t really like weeks with the bigger feature meetings like Goodwood, York, Cheltenham et al, I like to have a steady week where the money is (I think) spread out evenly across the cards, at my level there seems to be fewer opportunities with the attention aimed at one meeting,
I do realise that there are opportunities there that present themselves, it’s just that I can’t read them at the moment, I have an idea as to where they are but I’m not that confident reading in between the lines (so to speak) or pulling those triggers.. (yet), which is a bit frustrating but I know it'll come in time, if I could work out how to strip away the wheat from the chaff on those markets I can’t read at the moment I’d be made up

What kind of markets are your bread and butter Korratt? Personally I prefer to focus on the markets I perform well in and leave the rest, everyone has their own strengths and if you don't perform well at the big meetings then no big deal I say. Focus on what you're good at, not at what you aren't.
I hear what you’re saying Greco & I agree, but I always look to better myself & broaden my horizons so to speak, I seem to pick off good results with the slow & steady markets, those jumpy ones must have a method or a strategy, it’s just that I can’t read them as of yet.
The market book percentages have the same meaning pre and post off and are always important.

If I find myself getting involved with the noisy markets, I'll always try and have some speculative closing trades quite a way from the current price. Those spikes go both ways, and I might as well benefit from half of them instead of just getting my arse kicked by the 'wrong' ones. It takes a bit of management adjusting their size and position but it keeps you busy. That reminds me, I've got a half finished 'spikebot' getting dusty somewhere.

With 10,000 races a year, understanding Brownian motion* is low on my list

Massive laying on magic mirror looked very dodgy. 12s out to 60
chunks of £300 kept laying
