tbh i've never been a massive lover of festivals but will still always do them although i never have any great expectations from therefore will always be looking at the support cards as well. However unlike past years this one i went in with a pre-thought out plan/approach for Chelt and stuck too it and it ended up working quiet well.

I was never going to get rich trading my first Chelt, so this week has been mainly about harvesting data and video for me.
I've got over 3million cells of delicious data to play with now and that makes me a happy as winning big
Did have a few trades though and all green, so roll on next year....I hope my £50 note didn't ruin the markets for you guys.
£83,573 less Pre-off vol than last year
£333,281 less IP vol than last year
£416,854 less total vol than last year
, by my reckoning.

No caviar and lobster for me tonight, more of a tuna from a can type day here.
Went 6/7 on Betdaq, though no real decent results, so only ended up with a modest profit. Ended up with a small loss on betfair, mainly due to the last race going from £40 green to £40 red in what seemed like the blink of an eye. Had that happen to me a couple of times this week. So only a tiny profit overall for today.
A very enjoyable weeks trading though, and I hope I have learnt plenty again ready for next year. Looking forward to Aintree, then straight on to the flat season.Overall, a good weeks trading.

We do hope you'll have more accurate figures by Mondy (at the latest)ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Fri Mar 17, 2017 5:45 pm£83,573 less Pre-off vol than last year

That last market was my fave all week just nice and smooth not the biggest profit but this is how I thought the markets would be all week. I think there may have been fewer traders in that last race as I managed to turn over more money, maybe too many traders was why I found this week a bit of a struggle and why things sometimes were over exaggerated when the prices moved?
Will definitely be looking at using Betdaq next big meeting. On the gold cup there was just too much dead money for me to get much through - I only have a 1k bank so had to keep moving stakes around.
I think the secret to these markets is to have loads of stakes scattered around outside the prices then you have an easy scalp as you are first in the queue and also get to profit from the spikes, however this is not ideal for my small bank.
I was just starting to get the hang of these high volume markets too little too late really but will be ready for next year hopefully with a larger trading bank

My figures are often wrong to several decimal places.-

The start of Tuesday and Wednesday was quite a shock to me but I am really pleased with my results. Sad its over but looking forward to Royal Ascot!! My fav UK meeting. Aintree is only a few weeks. I cant believe the Guineas is less than 2 months away!
