100 bucks on each you invest 600,000 dollars. Collect 50,000. You can do much better with a bank over a two year period without involving a 11,300 dollar 'draw down' prospect. To win at gambling ultimately you have to be able to build a bank, not make at the same rate as a bank offers. I still could be wrong but I can't see it. |
Expected run of outs for 35% is 16
Based on 3 lots of 10,000 I believe one should have a bank of 3.0 x the longest theoretical run of outs. In this case 48 , if betting level stakes.= 2% of bank. 1% of bank as mentioned prior would be even safer. 50 Point Staking Plan Heres a safe staking plan one might like to experiment with. Divisor starts at 50 divided into target of $100. With a Starting Bank $200 Deduct win dividend price off the divisor after each win & deduct the profit off the target after each win so as to calculate the next bet. Start from the beginning as soon as half of the target is won , in this case $50 This helps prevent the bets from becoming too large for the bank to cope with. e.g. Tar---Divisor--O/L---Dividend---P/L 100-----50-----2-----L 102-----50-----2-----L 104-----50-----2---w$11.00---+20 84------39-----2-----L 86------39-----2---w$6.00---+10 76------33-----2---w$14.00---+26 50------19-----3-----Objetive reached..We would now rule off & start from the beginning because we have reached our objective of reaching half the Target figure. If one wants to start with a lower divisor (not recomended) , one will see how the bets become larger after a run of outs , so be prepared for it, because it will come , no matter how strong a selection method may be, its just part of punting. Remember ---Punting does not owe us a living. Cheers. |
The big thing you're forgetting ManyGeese is that you don't have the $600,000 to begin with. And betting $100 you don't need it - you only need $10,000. So, with $10,000 only level staking $100 each you make $50,000 in the two years. Show me a bank that will make you $50,000 interest over 2 years with a capital of $10,000. That's the point you're failing to see.
Also, I was talking about 1% increasing/reducing. With a $10,000 bank, $100 bets on each selection increasing/reducing (1%) your $10,000 actually becomes $168,000. Again, show me a bank that can make you $158,000 interest in two years off a $10,000 capital. Bhagwan - your last commnt, ie that no matter how strong a selection method, runs of outs will occur, is exactly the point I am trying to make: one must be prepared for them, they will come. I therefore agree entirely with you. :) |

Using 22% and a average dividend of $5.48 over 218 bets I got a max drawdown between 15 and 32 as a rule over several runs. This would indicate a bet of perhaps 2% of bank might be safe. BUT !!!! 218 bets is not enough to judge a system on - you may have had a good period or you may have had a bad one. The strike rate or average dividend could be quite different from the one you got in your test period. Heres the maximum drawdown simulator if you want to play with it. http://home.iprimus.com.au/jfc2000/drawdown.htm KV |

KV, hear hear, Duritz, I really think you've cracked it there. I have 3 seperate plans showing a profit now into the 3rd year but not as good as that, and I'm getting the absolute BEST returns available. (well as far as I know that is)
As far as the comparison to bank interest is concerned let's just GROAN! Go for it mate!! |
groan. I guess the 8.5% bets per day is the secret. 8.5 that is.

Yep have KV - like you got varying results, did not record them at the time but they seemed to be around the 60-70 mark on average. I'm sure the biggest one was not much (if any) more than the 113 I've seen already in the research of this sys, so you may be right. May have a cracker. Am punting it, it's a mere three days old so far (and up 11 bets after three days, ripper of a start), I guess the proof will be in the punting. |
Manygeese - yeah that's part of it. Thing is, to compare it to a bank it's like a compound interest rate of 7% (the profit on turnover) which compounds a lot more times than the banks do.
