I appreciate your efforts, but its a little like Woof43 and his numbers.
he understands them because he does them like second nature.
And you understand your ideas , and you probably can't understand how it is that I 'm not getting it , as you are pretty much speaking plain English.

I suppose I really need to get into it and get my hands dirty and do the database.
It will probably make sense then.

Lets leave it for now.
I'ld hate to go back to how we didn't correspond like before.
Too Lonely

I'll start playing with databases and records , and when I feel I am understanding it , perhaps it would be nice if you could help me get to the stage where you are at.
For the moment , I'll start with the First steps of getting a database together.

Thanks Lomaca.

I'm not upset, but can't really explain it any better.

I don;t have time now but what I might do, is analyse your ratings, and see what sort of prices you get and what sort of S/R you have.

Put it simply if you knew the lowest prices you get for your winners, you could see at a glance if it is was worth betting on them.

For instance, you had 20 of your first selection at a price below $2.00 but only 9 of them actually won.

Clearly when they pay less than $2.00 then you don't bet on them because although you might be in profit overall it all comes from the rest of your winners.

Good luck
