Hedging Asian Handicap

[Paparazzo]

I'd like to share opinions about an idea arose some weeks ago. Simple strategy: Bet the Home team on the FIRST HALF Asian Handicap at the closest odd above even (i.e 2,10) Simultaneously bet (same stake) on the away team FULL TIME Asian Handicap at the closest odd above even Example on the last weekend in PL: MUFC-City 2 AH+0.25 2.36= -1 1 AH-0.25 HT 2.56=+1.56 QPR-Chelsea 2 AH-1.5 2.28= -1 1 AH+0.25 HT 2.56=+0.78 Burnely-Arsenal 2 AH-1 2.19= 0 1 AH+0.25 HT 2.20=+0.60 S'ton-Hull 2 AH+0.75 2.25= -1 1 AH-0.5 HT 2.23=-1 Sund.-Palace 2 AH-0.25 2.45= +1.45 1 AH-0.25 HT 2.6=-0.5 Tott.-AVilla 2 AH+0.75 2.19= +1.19 1 AH-0.5 HT 2.15=-1 WBrom-Le'ster 2 AH0 2.36= +1.36 1 AH-0.25 HT 2.38=+1.38 WHU-Stoke 2 AH+0.25 2.11= +0.56 1 AH-0.25 HT 2.23=+1.23 Swansea-Everton 2 AH0 2.19= 0 1 AH-0.25 HT 2.56=-1 TOTAL+3.61units ROI+20,1% :ok Should work also on the opposite direction (1AH FT - 2AH HT) as the underlying idea is that twists in a match trend occur not so often and the system can be affected positively or negatively with the same probabilities. Basically the average output is a bet won that overcompensates the other one lost. Criticism is VERY WELCOME at this stage!!! Thanks to everybody willing to discuss it. Cheers

Re: Hedging Asian Handicap I made some in-depth back testing and I need to make everybody aware that it doesn't work if applied to all matches. Needs to be used with a discretionary apporach.
