Apologies again for lack of updates, I'm probably at the stage where I'm thinking "it's pointless posting, all I'm going to say is system A made £x, system B lost £x" etc. Then I find myself driving along and thinking "ah yes, I'll mention this and that on the blog", then I sit down with a blank box in front of me for the post and find my mind is as blank as the box in front of me :o)
So anyway, lets go over my systems and get them up to date. The X5 Horse Trading App has been ticking over, it's currently up £11 since last Wednesday so nothing to get to excited about really. Happy enough to just leave it going. After it's horrendous start to the month (following on from last months horrendous finish!) it's down -£441 so very little chance of getting that back level really. We'll see how the small stakes go with it, it's certainly less stressful.
The Carrera Football App has had a really good time of late. Currently up £374 since last Wednesday.
I'm still going through all the horse and bookmaker data (it's been running now since last November so there's a fair old amount of data there!) but am struggling to really make much headway with it. I'm going to start breaking it down to different racetypes and times of year. I'm looking for major movements in the volume & odds traded, its difficult doing that without 'backfitting' it too much.
I also plan on sending out an email to all the DB9 Football Selections subscribers with a general overview of the system, there won't be any selections for a few weeks yet though. Need to get up to speed with the mailing list though just so there's no hiccups once we get up and running.
I see The Premier League kicked off this weekend with Chelsea winning 6-0, yawn. It seems to me that the gap between the top clubs in the Premier League and the lower clubs is now greater than the lower Premier League clubs and the top of the Championship. Maybe I'm just bitter about the whole Premier League thing ;o)
Thats about me up to date, no doubt when I click the 'Publish' button I'll remember the whole stack of things I was going to say.
Stick with it mate, I've had my own wobbles regarding blogging, it's a pain when you get the writers block and you just can't think of anything interesting to say. Yours is one of the best blogs around and I really enjoy reading it.
Keep up the good work
