Truly amazing Rik. You are what I want to be when I am a grown up trader ..is this punting or trading?
Australian racing
If anyone is using the data from here

I've just realized that the volume and price data (except BSP) is wrong for Australia. They base the morning data off of GMT... which stuffs everything up (specifically the prepost data is less than the morning data, and morning data = IP plus prepay (mostly))

There are lots of data errors in those files such as Place prices shown as Win prices for some races! I download them monthly and always examine them for obvious price errors that I check/correct using Trueform. As an experiment calculate the Book %ages of some markets historically.Anbell wrote: ↑Wed Jul 29, 2020 3:04 amIf anyone is using the data from here

First profitable month on BF ..ever...had a shocker of a last few days though. ...trying not to let it knock my confidence. The mind games in one's own head (as said by every successful trader ) in this domain are amazing .I am trying to lean on a few years of martial arts training to achieve mushin while trading. Not easy
