Traded it a bit on and off, when it's been on at a decent hour, past few days some of the WTA has been middle of night. Done ok, apart from Zverev costing me a bit last week, when he got spanked in no time
Was looking for the Federer v Nadal market earlier for 8pm start, then saw was a walkover, must have been decided not long before.

No disasters but no standout results either. Looking at last years results, I'm about on par. Miami was better to be last year

I had been testing a trading strategy for a few weeks before Indian Wells and it was going well. It relies on bounce backs in certain conditions.
During Indian Wells, the same strategy didn’t work as well.
Conversely, I’m also testing a (hopefully value) betting strategy that gets deployed before Quarter Finals. After a break even February, It did really well during Indian Wells.
Yea, Indian Wells had a tough feel to it for me too. Down -28% YOY (+4k compared to +5.6k last year), all manual. Think I might have lucked out as well TBH. Took last Saturday off (9th March, 2nd round of Indian Wells). Based on some of that day's match results chances are, I would've lost a pretty penny in that session.
-1.7k for Guadalajara. Never got into rhythm in that tournament. Didn't trade it last year, most likely for reasons I shouldn't have touched it this year - liquidity issues and shitty video feeds
Anyways, looking forward to Miami! Did okay on it last year but as usual, trying to keep expectations low
Thanks for the replies guys, seems the general consensus was that no one has done particularly great at it this year
I'd also agree with those who commented on the upcoming Miami tourney, outside the Grand Slams its one of my favourite events to trade so very much looking forward to it

Also to sort of echo what Northbound said, if one's strategy was heavily reliant upon 'bounce backs', Indian Wells would've been hard to swallow. Assuming zero counting errors: Out of a total 94 matches (excl. qualifiers), 59 of them completed in straight sets (1 retirement before completion of 1st set). Only 34 finished 2-1, AND only 14 of those came back from a set down.Dallas wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2019 6:01 pmThanks for the replies guys, seems the general consensus was that no one has done particularly great at it this year

Good luck on the finals later on if you're trading them! Kerber vs Andreescu should be interesting
