Well, that will happen if nobody can place bets... :lol:
Bf seems pretty weak comparing to years like 2015. or 2016.
That may be so but a poor fill rate should not be placed under the same umbrella as a technical issue.

Lol, nice one ..
I was reading a story about an on-course trader ringing-in positions from the rails. Anyway, he was approached by a steward and asked if he was trading online. The Trader obviously denied it and gave his excuses including this is a racecourse, not a creche. Just behind in the Grandstand was a group of men in fancy dress [Stag Party], one with a five feet dildo attached to his back. The Trader said shouln't you be more interested in preventing something like that, lol. The ironry.

No. I do not put these two things in the same hat. I just have huge feeling that bf going down generally. I know Im bit frustrated because I lost few edges which were based on vigorous activity and rush but in general, it is so hard to find any new one with these odd markets

I hear you. Remember changing market conditions provide new opportunities as well as making older strategies outdated.

Learn to love the process and I believe you'll find something that works well for you once more.

York isn't trading that well at the moment. Hope it perks up!

You know how we always tell new people that quitting while you're ahead is illogical, well my automation has broken my 24hr record in 16, and boy oh boy do I feel like pulling the plug and going for a pint :) I could leave it running but...... :? I thought losing was bad but winning seems to be even more stressful.

I find the 4.25 Newton Abbot a fascinating market, superficially I would have thought a very competitive race.

Yeah I can, that's why I wanted to stop it cos I won't be able to stop looking at the damn thing.
Since the last post I had a lucky bonus win too so, call me a wimp or worse still, illogical, but that's me done :)
Have a nice evening guys.
