Starting to think evening racing is a waste of my time, anyone else have a similar opinion?

broke even in the afternoon ...aaaand broke even over the evening too :lol:'

@Greco
in theory, your evening performance should roughly match your afternoon results over a longer period if you're aware each course can (and will) trade differently, if the evening really does feel worse it could be due to becoming tired from the afternoon. From my own experience, I know my entries aren't as well thought out when I rack up lots more small-average sized losses without really thinking about it. If that sounds similar try scheduled a couple breaks if you don't already have some in place and if that doesn't seem to help then you probably better start looking at your results on a course-by-course basis.

might be something as simple as needing to drop your stake size for the evening to account for the lower liquidity?

Cheers, yeah I think a reduction in stakes in line with the liquidity would be a good first step. I'll report back tomorrow...

Until you're super confident in your own strategies, a good general rule of thumb I'd recommend is keeping your net position under 50% of what's available at the current tick
e.g. here it'd be 1x 400 / 2x 200 / 3x 128's etc. or whatever you use

And please consider you may just get lucky tomorrow ;)
