Trading Results – 4th September 2017

+£18.48

Here are my results for today.

18:00 – LTD2 – Norrby v Varbergs (1-1) – Won

Red card for Norrby on 18′, 0-0 at HT. I held out until around 60′ and traded out for a loss.

I continued to monitor the stats and could see that both teams were going for the win rather than 10 man Norrby sitting back hoping for the draw, which is often the case when a team gets a red card. I felt that a goal was coming so backed over 1.5 goals on 75′ for small stakes and layed the draw around 80′ to increase my liability to around another half point.

Norrby then scored on 83′ with Varbergs equalising soon after on 85′. So I took a chance as I really did feel a goal was coming. I increased my liability a bit, but on this occasion it paid off.

What Are The Best Leagues For Football Trading?

One of the first steps when using any football trading system is to decide on which leagues you will be trading.

Not all leagues are created equal and whether you utilise the overs markets, lay the draw or both teams to score, the one thing you are going to need is plenty of goals.

Personally, I use lay the draw a lot and have a number of different variations such as LTD1 and LTD2, but regardless as to which I am using the fact remains that I will need goals so that I have as many opportunities as possible to trade out for a profit.

But which leagues are the best?

New Page For LTD Selections

I have decided to create a static page on the site for all of my daily LTD football trading selections. This page will be updated almost daily, depending on whether any games are being played or not.

This saves me having lots of separate posts on the site for my selections. I will continue to post all of my results as posts, which will be retained on the site and can be viewed at any time.

You can view the new LTD Selections page here

You can also find the new page in the sidebar menu to the right and in the very top menu.

If you haven’t already done so, you may also sign-up for my free newsletter and receive my selections and results direct to your inbox.

When Should You Exit A Lay The Draw Football Trade?

This is something many new football traders have trouble with.

The most important point for me is to be consistent.

Some of us are more cautious than others. Some like a greater degree of risk where others prefer less. Either way is fine, but you must be consistent.

Trading Selections – 18th June 2017

Here are my selections for today.

16:00 – LTD FULL – Norrby v Orgryte
17:00 – LTD FULL – Molde v Tromso
22:00 – LTD FULL – Philadelphia v New York Red Bulls

The odds for the Molde game a little high at the moment. If they come down a bit, I may trade that game.

Be lucky!
