Where was this strategy in the masterclass?

Do you mind posting your credit card number and the security number on the back as well Peter?

However if I post a video or a comment, or a screenshot of a really good trade that was brilliantly executed; nobody really pays any attention to it.

But you should have seen the attention that this got, crazy!

I suppose to most punters, trading is not as exciting as betting. We've seen aspects of this from the BBC bookies program - would those punters get the same excitement from a good pre-race trade, as they do from having a vested interest in the race? Probably not

[foxwood]

It's a fantastic and exciting result for an afternoon's betting but is there a hidden downside ?

The "win money" strike rate projected appears to be ~83% and assuming say ~25% commission the staking is say 1000.00 per race.

For 100 races ...
money in = 83 * 1000 = 83,000
money out = 17 * 1000 * 4.86 = 82,620
gross profit = 380.00
net loss after commission = (83 * 724.50) - 82,620 = -22,486

I don't think the actual numbers would be as bad as that based on lots of clues spelled out in the blog but I'm sure the variance would be more than most people could live with. At that staking level a long losing run would probably cost more than the average house does

So, perhaps it was actually caring and kindness that omitted the details of the strategy from the masterclass

[Actually - I do think there is a profitable strategy implied in the blog - seek and ye shall find ]

This may have been answered else where already but out of interest Peter, which is more profitable, the strategy itself or the amount of PC it helps to offset?

I was curious about that as well.
