Today with very few races on the card im concentrating on one thing - Shaun mentioned my avg loss / avg win etc and he's so right. let the winners run, cut the losers - age old advice. that's my focus now. I wont be going for the 1 or 2 ticks anymore and will be looking to cut the losers reasonably fast and let the winners run.
I also noticed that i was often placing back bets at crossover points. i've watched a few videos of this and note that most of them concentrate on laying at the points but it always seems to be when the price is falling to an xover rather than when price is rising to an xover. I saw this happen on the last race, price fell to 3.85 and did a reverse for a quick five tick trade.
couple of questions:
1) is it more effective to lay when at an xover regardless of the prior direction?
2) is there a way to stop betangel switching to the one click screen just after the five minute warning? is there a setting somewhere? cos it's really annoying!
That's better .. I'm sure we will pull you up if you return to you " alter ego " not nice to see .. really isn't
when I profile a race I tend to look for " drifters and most of my trades start with a lay bet .. but initially it is good to keep things simple and do one or the other .. you prefer to look for horses likely to shorten
Do you just just trade using the ladder interface ?
