Those of you following SSI's road -1.5 system know how much of an abortion this weekend was. The unmodified system went 7-8, down something like 30 units.
I find this to be an important weekend and, although you may find it hard to believe, strengthened my believe in the modifications that SSI and I have individually made to the base system. My version ended up losing about 14.5 units on the weekend. HOWEVER, I am actually up .75 units on the week. I am not bragging by saying this, just want those following to know that after a weekend worse than any all of last year, I am still up on the week.
This weekend was worse than any weekend last season. Last season's worst series set was 7 losses, I believe it happened 3 times.
My variation of the system ended up 10-5 on the weekend as I faded Pitts, FL and TB, all for wins.
I think there are two things that can be taken from this weekend:
- money management - I didn't actually play the true Martingale 1-2-4 system. After the awful Friday I went only 1.5 units on Saturday and Sunday and kept the losses to a reasonable number (-3.5 units)
- FADE THE BAD TEAMS - As noted above, I banked series by fading Fla, TB and Pitts, and probably should have also faded Balt, Minny and maybe Arizona. I don't think Minny is a bad team by any means, but they are now 1-8 on the road and they were playing CWS.
Just some thoughts from the weekend. I am still on board for the long haul and believe we have a winning system.
Best of luck and thoughts are appreciated. We start anew tomorrow.
