Ongoing "Trader of the week" results - Week 4 (week ending 26/07/09)

[Grandthrax]

Grandthrax, I am extremely intrigued by your horse racing methods. Do you suppose after the competition is over, you might be willing to divulge a bit of info about your signs for trading etc?

Well done in managing to do so well in what is clearly a really difficult market to call!

Sure, although I don't know how much help i will be. I can tell you exactly what i look for but the hard part isn't knowing what to look for it's applying this knowledge to each race individually. Each market acts differently. So much so that normally my first few trades when i change to a new race are loosing or scratch trades. I only start making money when i have a feeling of how the market is acting. As i write this my first trade on the 14:35 has lost me 56p . EDIT: and ended in a 49 profit (before tax).

But I'll certainly tell you what my signals are.

£11.24 from one race today.

Backed the fav 1 hour before the off at 2.88 for £20. A 2m 1f race with a smallish field, I decided to leave it til in running and watch how it was travelling before hedging. 3/4 of the way round is, horse was travelling well, just behind the leader: layed at 1.81 for £31.82.

Can you please upload your screenshots - see the first post for details.

Grandthrax will get the pre race prize this week (one month sub to BetTrader), Wndllll gets £10 and if frank can get his screenshots in he will get the mug.
