Don't know about everybody else, but I'm here to make as much as possible this week, not argue with other traders. FFS

So on that front - I went in steady for the first on Betdaq, to test the waters and found it pretty good so will be stepping it up from now.

Not the best result of the week hopefully but a decent enough for a sighter, the stakes totaled £12,846 giving a return of 0.4694% for those that are interested.

Edit: Commission was 2.06%

It's easy to express an opinion without upsetting others. Nobody will have a go if you have a different opinion but if you deliberately rub people up the wrong way then that is obviously going to create any issue.

Anyhow, back to Cheltenham......

It is worth looking away from the front of the market as Peter suggested in his video. I have always found the fill rate the issue for me on the big festivals.

It is a self fulfilling prophecy - there is more money in the queue so it takes longer to get filled so people use bigger stakes to make up for it which makes the problem worse.

I'm hardly even using Betfair for Cheltenham, Betdaq is a lot better IMO.

Holywell touched 1.30 in running so I was more than happy despite trading out at 2.10!!

I just recorded a slow motion scalp on Betfair. Took about six minutes!

I picked up decent trade in the 15:30 with the move on the new one, telegraphed a long way out.

I traded the weakness on the 16:10 for the best result of the day
