Guitar Jim, Always willing to listen to everyone and take stuff in. I haven't closed my thoughts to what you are saying.
The only problem for me is I need more information on what you are saying in the above quote. How do I ensure that I "fully understand the figures" ? and work out my long term win rate and return rate ? Is this just going through lots and lots of races and finally getting up to 2000 or 3000 races before I can be more sure of the results ? Or is there something else I need to do on top of this ?
This is the whole point why I raised the thread... What do I need to do to test my system ? How can I test my system to fit what you were saying above ? Forgive me as I am fairly new to all of this and any help anyone can provide is appreciated, but I need more detail in how to do it.
Also thanks to everyone who has replied so far, I have been testing more and more and started my live bank for a bit of a test. I have appreciated all the advice which has been given so far and will appreciate anymore advice people can continue to give me.
Thanks again.
