Could this assist with avoiding the holy crap of punting = a long series of outs??

You seem to already have an idea of one such turning point eg long price place getters which seems to lead / indicate that recovery winners are close by.

Also, have been meaning to ask regards your 1 button macro that churns and crunches thru 180 concurrent variables - why so many??

Cheers LG


re why so many:
these are separate approaches or systems that I monitor. e.g 1 such systems is choosing last start winners when there is only 1 LSW in the race.
in isolation it does not work but with some tweaking it may improve- so I might try 5 or 6 tweaks or combinations of tweaks - they will become 5 or 6 systems/approaches with their own POT and SR that i will monitor and so on it goes to where no i have about 180 such combination or filters etc.
they have to be easy to monitor and easy to develop.
Trust me day in day out all this stuff can get terribly boring - winning helps -but the work still has to be done.

re your first point - yes i have been thinking about that. i feel there must be some sort of lead indicator that will predict good/bad times to come. i have a feeling that it might be looking at trend POT or trend SR's. so that when i have been above or below trend thats the time to do something.

For me its peculiar about writing code for these type of things. i have to be 100% clear in my mind what i want to do and i can do it quickly - but until i get to that point i cant write the code.

At this time i am not at that point so i am just gathering data in such a fashion that when I am ready it will be there for me.

hopefully I will get fired up soon and get back into it.
