Sri Lanka vs Pakistan

Profit: £8.38

India vs West Indies

Profit: £4.42
Bank: £999.61
Loss to date: £0.39

Amazingly enough, Gayle was out in the eighth over, which made the odds fall within the criteria. Within six overs the trade making a profit paid off. Suffice to say that I was surprised! The bank is now back to virtually break even.

Unfortunately I am going to be away from my computer all day tomorrow, so I will not be able to follow the live odds, so the next entry for the blog will be on Sunday.

Ireland vs New Zealand

Match does not meet system criteria.

England vs South Africa

Loss: £7.74
Bank: £986.81
Loss to date: £13.19

England get their butts kicked big time by one of the strongest teams in the tournament, resulting in a further loss. Two more games tomorrow, which currently qualify to trade, and well see what happens.

Hello everyone, I am running a test on 20 -20 Cricket Trading from Steve Davidsons portfolio of systems from Australia.

The system comes as a six-page e-book, and contains a number of worked examples from the recent Indian Premier League held in South Africa.

Without giving too much of the system away, the general premise of the system is to lay one of the teams at a particular odds level, and the back again once odds have raised to a certain point. However, should odds not rise to this point, a back bet is placed to restrict some of the loss, and the stake on the next bet increased in percentage terms of the bank as a method of recovery.

The e-book doesnt recommend a minimum betting bank, so I have decided to use a bank of £1000, and see how things go from there.

I have had the system since Monday, and have been watching the odds fluctuating in the games between Bangladesh versus Ireland and New Zealand versus South Africa, both of which would have resulted in winning trades. I wasnt able to follow the Australia vs Sri Lanka game, and the Netherlands versus Pakistan did not qualify.

Anyway on to todays matches:

Sri Lanka vs West Indies

Loss: £5.45
Bank: £994.55

India vs Ireland

Match does not meet system criteria.
