Hi Lord Greystoke and welcome to the forum!

The perfect betting system, hmmm....

1/ Relatively high strike rate (25 - 40%) to reduce length of losing runs
2/ Isolates value (or has a value/minimum price component locked in)
3/ Uses a sensible staking strategy relative to strike rate/return.
4/ Has a simple set of rules or is easy to automate selections.

I'd recommend having a play around with UB's system tester, it's opened my eyes to a few situations that deliver value and lay opportunities for the commodities that are overbet.

An interesting article posted by Mark a few weeks back stated that the average system lasted 2.8 days before being discarded. Make a promise to go for 3-6 months before making any type of decision on long-term viability.

This forum really is a Goldmine so dig deep, demand value and you're off and racing!!

Best of luck!

The Schmile
