Dutching etc.

[Robbert]

First of all, Hi!

I am new on the forum, and into horse racing for over a year now.

I the right way of punting is to find something that yourself are comfortable with.
For me, its to find the edge with a high strike rate.

 

So.. Dutching is the way for me. I use computerised ratings for the horses, to keep emotions far away. Plus i am lazy and i have no time and will to study form etc.
I use TSM for tracking my bets. 

The stats for now are:

Total bets 148
SR: 62 %
Req SR: 59.7%
ave odds: 1.78
ave winning odds: 1.68
edge: 5.3%

Is this something? Or am i just putting my money into nothing?

Second question,  i dont use staking plans. Just level stakes. The only one that works for me i think is the Retirement staking plan. So any thoughs on that?


Thanks in advance!

 

Cheers!

I don't think there's any right or wrong ...the secret is to find your own niche and something you are comfortable with and if you can consistently make a profit then you've got it made ....

Only negative I can see is the low odds and 5.3% means unless you bet large bets then you will spend a lot of time betting for a small return but if your happy just collecting your nice percentage which is better than the banks then good for you and keep doing it ..... .welcome to the forum btw and good luck with your bets
