Hi,

I’ve ben watching an old video from Peter here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gvu7wO90Fwo – re taking a losing strategy and making it a winning one. the thing here was laying a market (in that case tennis). But it got me thinking. Would I need to consider something like this on a market where I back?

I am currently using a basic Dobbing system I created in Bet angel, it’s for very small stakes just to test but I wonder if I can improve that basic system.

Currently I use fixed stakes on it, but Peter constantly seems to advise that a fixed stake (at least with laying isn’t ideal) so should I be looking at different stakes depending on the back odds? They are very varied.

The 2nd question is, if I should using varying stakes, how would I incorporate that into the rule that I have created?

Lastly, are there any other things to consider? Like aa stop loss for example?

Yesterday a bet on 9 races, or which 6 were matched, but of course the 3 losers wiped out most of the gains
