Running +42.86
The tennis bet that we had pending has lost as the player was knocked out today. The main football part of this service is performing really well so far and is now +75.33 points. It’s the tennis that is knocking down the overall figure with a loss so far of 32.47 points.

Week 9
EUR/USD 15 minute (flat £10 per pip)
Note I work with additional filters:
Both MAs below trendline for a sell, or above for a buy
Some degree of separation between the MAs
Don’t trade off a large bar (think this is in the manual anyway) of around 20+ pips long
Don’t trade off a large move in either direction as you should never trade the end of move

EUR/USD 4 hour (risking 3% of bank per trade)
Will report in this at end of May.
Usual caveats apply:
Trading ForEx is discretionary; I’ll see trades other people won’t and miss trades that they take. We all read the market differently; therefore your results will be different from mine. Further, I am experienced trader with over 4 years’ experience. Although I try my best not to colour my trials with this experience it is impossible to remove it completely.

Caveats:
I am using the Alpari spread betting metatrader opening price on the hourly chart at 8am to determine closing prices. Your results may (will) differ from mine as you will get better or worse prices than mine.
I am spread betting so allowance for spread has been made in the pip totals.

I have just put a formula into my spreadsheet to keep running separate totals for the main football bets and the bonus tennis selection. Makes for interesting reading as it shows the football on +60.08 points and the tennis on -11.62. But we do have the 4 point bet pending and as it’s priced at 5/1 it would turn that side around if it wins.

Day 50 Results:
3 good winners from the 8 selections giving a good profit for 8 selections.
Points: +2.95
Total Points: +25.58
This brings the trial to the end of week seven.
Week 1: -15.46
Week 2: +10.79
Week 3: +11.04
Week 4: -4.55
Week 5: +4.40
Week 6: +9.84
Week 7: +9.52
Total Profit: +25.58
I think the run the trial has had after the first week shows why I like using these football selections so much. The profit is nothing spectacular but the consistent building of the bank just continues on week to week.

10/5
-7.3
Running 48.46
I have a 4 point tennis bet pending from yesterday. It’s on the winner of the Madrid Open which finishes Sunday, so if our selection gets through it will be added/deducted then. For the purposes of record keeping I have marked it as a Push result for now and will alter when the result is known
