good luck with this, billy

I'll copy these staking plans to a thread on their own and that way it may prompt others to join in.

Interesting posts on the staking plans !
good luck with all the paper trials
I've been trying a staking plan for the last few months but I've only been betting on football since about last October with 95% single win bets with the odd double and 'fancy' bet here and there .............so basically I was expecting a pretty good strike rate, up around 50%
Since around mid March I tried the following ...........
 
Started with 100 and had 20 times 5 bets.
At the end of that sequence I had around 141 so then did 20 times 7 
At the end of that I had around 145 so did 20 times 7 again
At the end of that I had 165 so did 20 times 8
That's when the losing run set in and before long I was back down to 105
So I had a reset and started again at 20 times 5 .............that's the sequence I'm currently in
 
I guess it's a common staking plan but I found it stopped me doing stupid bets like 30 quid on Burnley to beat Lincoln at 1/6 .............. ............to be fair that was the shocker which made me think I needed a disciplined staking plan !
I think 20 bets at a level stake is a good number to get you over any reasonable losing runs and by increasing or decreasing your stake at the end of every sequence of 20 bets it stretches out your betting bank
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Should be fun

OK I am going to try this with an increase at loss system. The increase will only take effect after the 3rd bet and will increase by 1 Pt. It will stop after a profit is made. Just to throw the spanner in the works, if a profit is not made after the 5th bet, every winner we have will decrease the bet by an amount determined by the price of the winner (cannot decrease below 5 Pts.)  
1. Odds on winner, (after bet 5) next bet will be same as previous.
2. Winner from Evens to 11\8 next bet will decrease by 1
3. Winner from 6\4 to 9\4 next bet will decrease by 2
4. Anything above 9\4 next bet will decrease by 3
Don't forget you cannot drop back below 5.
So to sum up first 5 bets will be : 3 Pts, 2Pts 1 Pt, 4 Pts, 5 Pts  
If no profit is made after 5 bets the above 4 rules come into play. 
Hope this is understandable.
Yesterday would have shown an outlay of 15 Pts ..... Return of 27.5 Pts    Profit of 12.5 Pts. 

I used to use a percentage staking plan and i found it was quite successful as long as you could find a system where you had frequent winners.
The secret was to set the plan at the right level for the strike rate expected. So for example your opening bank figure would need to sustain any losing run to avoid being cleaned out.
If you were backing short priced favourites then it could be a lot less than a more aggressive selection method with less winners at a bigger price.
Lets say i'm backing favourites, I would have an opening stake of 5pts and set the bank at £30, this gives me a losing run of 6 before losing my opening £30.
So 5pts on the first selection and then once we have a winner we split the bank into 6 again.
If the prices are short it will need patience to build up, but thats your choice, if you wanted to back 5/1 shots then you would maybe want a few more than 6 as a safety net.
I'll try this with the selections in the trebles and naps in a different thread for a month.

Just to say the ratings made a profit in May for the 10th month in a row.
£20 stakes on all selections plus Naps and Trebles would have returned over £800 profit.

well done rainbow for winning

i was always told/shown that you had to record every single bet
betting bank separate from your own account
2%--20% staking bank, choose either level stake, increase on losses or decrease on losses, dont mix and match
the bigger the stake %, the greater the risk
and dont bet more that you can afford to loss

Bit of a one off today with race times too, two meetings starting much earlier than the others, unlucky.
Plenty of winners later in the day too!
I suppose if your operating a 'win only' system you should just do the 'win' selections, but i guess thats what paper trailing is all about. 
I have to say i've never liked the doubling up or loss recovery staking plans, have a look around for some alternatives.
Anyone got any good staking plans they would like to share?
I'll have a look at some old threads later

well done steve, maybe next time john
always thought it would be a close one
thanks to billy for the admin
