The usual question that people ask Google is, is there a strategy for Betfair that works. Actually, they all work to some extent, but it depends on what you put into the concept of "work." What is strategy? A strategy is an action plan designed to produce a certain result. Definitely a plan. Reading the forums gives the impression that many beginners understand it not as a plan, but as a "Guaranteed way of earning." Someone tries different strategies and is often surprised why in one way or another they do not work. It seems they do not realize that strategy is just a plan, not a guaranteed way to make money. Reality. The reality is that there is no guaranteed way to make a profit in trading. If it was, it would be illegal, or it was some kind of gap that would not last long. Of course there are guaranteed ways of earning through arbitrage transactions, but this is from another opera. The truth is that having a strategy, it is also important to choose the right time for its use. I regularly read websites where people discuss strategies available for sale and the amount of cynicism on these sites is off scale. Everyone complains that the strategies do not work, which makes me wonder. And what did they expect from the purchased strategies? This is if for example I bought a book that described the process of building a shelter in the garden, with detailed plans and descriptions. But this does not mean that the shelter will build itself. In addition, if someone uses the same book, then his asylum can be better than mine, although we used the same instructions. Peter Web's words fit perfectly: "It's interesting when two people show a very clear strategy and one is working flawlessly, and the other can not apply it." Next is the type ... all those who bought me a strategy for playing football and she they do not work goats. On the same sites, you will see the old question of the world ... "if they made so much money from their strategy, then why do they sell it?" The question would be correct if the Holy Grail was sold, but it's just a plan. the famous chef Jimmy Oliver nevertheless sells books with his recipes and other rich sell secrets as they have come to such a life. :) blah blah blah. In any case, you need to look for the right entry point and choose the right time for applying the strategies. There are no strategies like "do so and so and rake in money." Each plan sometimes does not work and the goal is to find one that falls less often. Summarizing all of the above, you should think about strategy as an instrument that helps you do the work. The more tools in your box, the more equipped you will be in most situations. By analogy, there is a well-known English proverb, which in the Russian translation sounds like: "Bad dancer and legs are in the way" .
P / S I do not sympathize with Goldovsky and other policy vendors, but the article is correct in my understanding. I had to learn to trade 5 people, just like that, not for money. Three of them accused me of not negotiating something, as a result they are draining money. Nobody wants to admit to themselves that they are not hard-working, disciplined and patient, it's easier to call someone a hassle. Few people manage to quit smoking, although everyone realizes the usefulness of this. Not enough will, determination, common sense. For the same reasons, not everyone will succeed in becoming successful traders, although potentially everyone has a chance.
