Powerful Wind

Had a £4 green on Powerful Wind... To take my daily profit up to £20...

So I thought...

Unfortunately it ended up as a £37 loss because it won and the back bet had a reduction factor applied but the lay bet didn't...

So my balance is now negative... and it turned my best daily profit (since I started the £10 bank a few weeks back) into the biggest daily loss...

Today's thought of the day, today

Be careful backing before the Off as it's not easy to spot a withdrawal if it happens just before the race starts and since the runner doesn't get added to the non runners the software has no way to apply the reduction factor into the hedge calculation...

I did wonder why the price shot down so quick at the off, I'll know not to hedge next time that happens...

It could have been worse, and £10 isn't a massive daily loss...

It does mean I can't trade for 2 days now as I have a daily £10 deposit limit set on the In running account.

So Weekend off and it starts now!!!
