Getting my best results from Lingers today which is a bit surprising as it's one of my bogey courses

These are the moves from the time i joined the market to the off.
Maybe it would be more interesting data if you fixed entry times and made daily, weekly, monthly summaries of ticks moved up or down, some kind of structure. Not saying that would be any more useful, its just that Logician in me dies a little every time I see those figures :D
I second this request, Euler. Much more interesting set of data if you tell exactly when you joined the market.

Thanks.

BA makes collecting this data fairly easy and you'll find much more interesting stuff in it than you're asking for. Besides, I think you'll find he's busy sweeping the office floor with a broom up his arse.

I write my own bots to collect data in a lot more detail than BA is capable, so I don't need any of the stuff I was suggesting. Its just that its very misleading to post random nice green figures or screenshots of single markets, like making money on BF is walk in the park. If you are working with numbers, statistics etc.. do it properly. Take big sample, show positive and negative figures, so novice traders can see full picture.. But don't mind me anyway, I'm just grumpy nerd :D

Misleading for some, motivating for others

Since day one, screenshots from not just Peter but many other successful people in this game have motivated me like you wouldn't believe and I wouldn't have progressed to the stage I am at now without them. Also the blogs too.

Anybody who has done their research and had a go at this should know it's not a walk in the park anyway

Look at the data and information people give away for free on this forum as a positive. Get to know the forum users who you should sit up and listen to, and the ones who you shouldn't.

It's all about how much time and work you are prepared to put in yourself, not how much information you can squeeze out of others

Good luck

Why the F does betfair turn off their crossmatcher near finish? 1st race at Nottingham, fav near 1.3 and 2nd fav trading below 2.0 and market don't give a fk - price is still 1.3 ! Crap. It's making tick offset pointless.
