No change in start times but no race has gone off on time.

I really don't like trading Saturdays anymore, they have become my least profitable day by far, I'm down today about £160 from a few bad trades and I can't see me pulling it back at all.

Why do you think that is?

The most recent Saturdays have not been great so I think it's not fair to assume they have changed or that you have traded badly. They have just been tough.

I did manage to get one really cracking trade away at Leopardstown today. Kempton has been OK but a mixed bag.

This thread is a good read as saturdays havent been plain sailing recently. Doesn't seem to be related to skill issues.

Managed to persuade my wife to let me have an hour and a half on Saturday, even though we had a group of friends coming over for supper. Started slowly then got hit for -120, and then spent the next hour clawing it back.... should have just taken the day off....! Sometimes find if I try to half trade a Saturday it ends up being a less than fulfilling experience...!

Oh, and I got lumbered with the more mudane laborious kitchen tasks afterwards while listening the those words I'm sure we've all heard before: "well that was worth it then..."

Rest of the weekend off me thinks....!

Another awful Saturday for me so far, clashes and delays, can't wait to see the back of Doncaster as well.

yep, I've only managed to trade 5 markets so far and now we have a nice 20 minute gap on the UK markets :roll:

Have to say it's an OK day for me so far. Bit unlucky in places but doing OK. Doncaster hasn't worked very well this week.

I waited till the end of the day to day this so as not to curse myself but I've found it to be a very good day, much better than recent saturdays I've found. I suppose a lot of it depends on your trading style

Made a mess up in the big race coming away with a fraction of what I should have done thanks to a daft error so found it pretty average until just after 5pm then since then I have smashed it up ending up with one of my best days since sometime in July. Guess you never can tell when you are going to get some good results. Just hope I can get as good a result tomorrow on my run :D
