at the moment, i put 5% of my bank on the A+ bets. right now, is this a good figure? or should i higher or lower it.

would i be better off putting a fixed amount on each bet despite my bank balance?

i have been making a small but steady profit which i dont want to screw up, but if there is a chance of making more i obvously want to do that.

what way do you lot do it?

BB+SQR or 3%-4% should do it. You don't have to use round number, something like 3.75% may suit a particular system.

ok will try that,
just want to say that your site and forum is one of the best on the net. i had been following different cowboy tipsters for about a year and they were not contactable when a losing streak was hit. at least you are here to explain things and help out. keep up the good work

What does BB+SQR mean??

Just when I think I have got my head around something, another little acronym apears!!

Base bet + square root of the profit. I think.

Hell! So you would need to know the odds?

No....Your BB (base bet) is something you decide on for all bets for that system. Say £5. You then add to that the square root of the profit, and that is your stake....simple as figuring out how Vegy exists :doh

"You then add to that the square root of the profit"

Sorry again... what profit are you referring to?

if you have a bank of £100 and you stake 5% of that as your BB that means each bet is a fiver. Once your bank is in profit you add the square root of that profit to the BB.

E.g. £112.00 bank. Bet =BB (£5.00) + sqrt of profit = (3.46) so stake is £8.46 on next race.

That'll be the profit you've made on the system, so for instance your bank started at £100, and your BB is £5, you've just backed a horse at 4/5, so you've won £4 to take the bank to £104. Your next bet is the BB plus the square root of your profit - in this case the profit is £4, so the square root is £2, which means the next bet is £7. Hope that helps:)

Thanks again.
That makes it clear.

I joined approximately one month ago and have followed the pro bets using the secure profit maker staking plan. I seem to be going nowhere, usually there is a good build up during the week only to be followed by disaster at the weekend. Are any members using this system to make profit?

Your using the wrong staking plan, ask the question in the Members Area.
