I set the program up exactly as in the video. Perhaps I'm picking the wrong horse or market because nothing happens the same as it does in the video.

I do understand the concept, but when I click the expected backing bet stage doesn't happen. Its frustrating as I know I must be doing something wrong.

Any advice or tips?
Sounds to me like you are not clued up with the software or you are not taking time and patience to understand it. To use Bet Angel takes alot of practice and reading the PDF file manual. I have done this for the last four months and taken the course, I go to a local cafe in the mornings and read read read. When the races start in the afternoon i get more bets matched in profit, its like money for old rope. You must read, not just look at the video,s Peters strategy is a skill of his own, you have to find and develop your own strategy in how to get matched. Getting bets matched is in the charts and when to enter the market plays a big part

Find a local cafe have a bite to eat and take em on at 2pm Good luck

I have just joined BetAngel by paying the £30 for one month.
I have been doing matched betting for a year and I am frustrated with it because of having to live in constant fear of getting your accounts restricted.

I want to make back my investment and thought that doing the method discussed in the video would be a good way to do that.

The video is dated he says that he will show it to everyone on a smaller scale.
Is there an updated version of it or something?

I have looked everywhere whenever I had free time away from my kids, but I don't see any methods for making money with BetAngel.

I would like to make £30 a day or at the very least my investment of £30 within this week back.

first off, welcome here. second off, hope this isn't a wind-up :) anyway, assuming you are genuinely naive and in need of help, then you should really start off by asking yourself a few basic questions:

1. do you have a plan formed for developing your strategy
2. how did you use the trial period ahead of the subscription -i.e. did you do nothing during that period?
3. why do you feel that you should be able to make £30 at the very least if you don't have a handle on the basics
4. is it truly an investment if you are treating it as an unknown gamble

I'm really sorry if this comes over as harsh but either you are trolling, or are in need of more help to get started than you are alluding to, in which case you really need to make more of an effort to tell the forum all the other ways you've tried to find an edge on the market.

Hello there.

I thought that £30 a day would be a sensible amount because Peter is making £185 a day going by what was shown in that video.

Is £30 a day too unrealistic at this stage or something?
I would rather know because if you go around fooling yourself, then you are not being realistic with yourself which will be of no help.

£30 a day equates to about £1.43 profit per race (assuming you trade uk horse races) on a average day with 3 meetings each with 7 races on their respective cards, all going off more or less on time, quite easy to achieve from a modest bank of around £200 to 250ish.

BUT i doubt very much you will be capable of that, as it would seem you have little or no experience of trading horses.

if you have the self discipline (consistant self discipline), and are willing to invest the time and effort to learn how the pre off markets work (dont touch inplay at all, different animal), then its very possible.

BUT it would seem anecdotally most people who try just dont have the right wiring in their brains to maintain the self discipline required.

That all sounds reasonable.
I just need to work on it.
