Redcar 14:05 has start time 13:05... Presume this is an issue with Betfair and nothing I can do to change in Guardian?

seems the money on Democracy Dilemma around 4.7 was genuine, really thought it would ping up & over around there

I've really enjoyed today. Decent sized fields, good gaps between races. Ideal.

someone remind me again the significance of the number of runners in a market?, i.e. large fields?

I really like your style of trading. Do you have a low strike rate -but when you land one its a whale?
I've tried pre race but I get invested psychologically and end up making errors. I really like the idea of automation and the emotions are taken out of it

hi, No not necessarily. I have a a number of accounts and some of them are running multiple strategies, so I tend to be play right across the range.
Im not sure about that last sentence though! Although i don't trade manually, emotions are always there in my experience and i probably work harder and longer hours doing automation that I ever did manually!
id suggest just get a very simple system up and running (its relatively easy to find a profitable strategy (ie finding value)), the hard part comes when you try and scale and maintain matching rates.
