Roger Elliot’s Trade Copieris a system for automatically copying the trades that Roger, a forex expert, makes himself.
Once you have set up the software, it operates by itself and you don’t need to do anything. So it suits busy people who don’t have time during the day to execute trades that are sent out by e-mail or text.
During our trial, it made 130 pips profit, which isn’t too bad but we felt not quite enough to warrant a recommended rating, when you consider the subscription costs are £79 per month, plus the trade copier costs £18 per month.
So you are talking just shy of £100 per month, which is quite a steep cost.
We always compliment anyone who makes a profit and that has been the case here, but as we say it just fell short of achieving a passed rating. If you are able to trade at high stakes, at say 5 pips per point, then it might be worthwhile. But we imagine for most people, at £1 or £2 per pip you would not have made the subscription costs back.
There are a low number of trades, with just two per week during our trial, so this is a very careful approach to trading, which we can’t knock.
It was a little complicated getting the trade copier set up and involved quite a few e-mails back and forth with the company involved, 4xSolutions.
Once it was set up though, it ran very smoothly and we think it is actually a great innovation. One of the big problems we encounter is that people struggle to match trading signals that are sent out quickly enough before they have moved. So this takes that worry out of the equation for you.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
Roger Elliot’s Trade Copieris an innovative approach to forex trading, allowing busy people to copy the exact trades that Roger takes using automated software.
It made 130 pips profit during our trial, which is good but fell just short of a recommended rating. With subscription costs of nearly £100 per month, you would need to trade at quite high levels to cover those costs.
If you are able to do so, then it may be worth having a go.
Roger is careful to trade only when he says a really good opportunity, so as to maximise profits and make sure we are not risking our money on anything that he is not 100% sure of.
That means things are slow and steady rather than fast and furious so to speak.
But results so far have fully justified that approach and the bank is growing nicely.
Just a reminder that you can get a £10 discount on your first month’s subscription as a visitor to Honest Betting Reviews.
Just use the code DFHB when you sign up and Roger will apply the discount.
The great thing about this, as we have said before, is that once it is set up you don’t need to do anything – you don’t even need your computer switched on, the trade copier service will do everything for you.
Anyway, good to see profits being made and let’s hope things continue in the same vein.
What I really want from a betting or trading system is to have to do as little work as possible.
This, as I say, is partly because I’m lazy. It’s also to do with time, since I have other things to do (not least running this website!) so can’t be spending hours finding selections for a particular system.
So when someone came along and suggested a new idea to me, I was quite intrigued.
The idea is basically a trade copier.
What it does is to mirror the trades of someone else, so once you have set it up you don’t need to do anything at all.
The trade copier follows certain select trades he makes, mainly based around the Forex pair GBP/JPY.
These trades supposedly make Roger around 300 pips per month and he has yet to have a losing month from them.
In the first month of the service going live in June, over 1,100 pips profit was made.
July has started positively as well, with over 400 pips profit made so far.
So if this works as well as Roger says, then we might have something very special. Not just a profitable system, but one you just have to set up and then can leave alone.
I am also just generally intrigued by this idea of a trade copier and wonder if there are some other services you can apply this to.
Would take away the worry of missing selections if you are on holiday/in a meeting etc and take any possible human interference with staking out of the equation.
I suppose it’s not that different to the Bet Hawk betting bot we have trialed and approved here at Honest Betting Reviews, just on forex rather than Betfair.
Anyway, let’s see if this is as good as I’ve built it up to be. We will run a normal three month trial and report back regularly on how things are going.
***We have a special offer for you here at Honest Betting Reviews: Join now for August and get the rest of July for free + a 10% discount!***
So that’s just £70 for the rest of July and August.
To qualify for this offer, please use the code DFHBR
So just contact Roger here with the code above and you will be eligible for the discount to the trade copier service.

The Football Hedging System is a much talked-about suite of football trading systems run by Tony Langley.
There has been a great deal of interest from the gambling community about the Football Hedging System and it seems to have generated some heated debate – although most comment has been positive overall.
Membership has now been closed – we understand for good – so doing a review may be a bit of a moot point now but we thought we would do one anyway for the sake of completeness and just in case it does open again at some point in the future.
Results
We tested the systems for six months, so what did we think?
Well, overall our views are very positive.
The systems Tony has designed clearly work, and if you follow his trades you would have done very well indeed.
We made 387 points profit from following Tony’s trades, which represented nearly 200% growth of the bank and is excellent going in anyone’s book.
And part of that was during the quieter summer months, so there is the potential to do even better than that.
So it’s a clear passed rating for the Football Hedging System, but there are some issues with it that we want to deal with further below.
How Does it Work?
Firstly, you may be wondering how it works. Well, upon signing up, you get access to the FHS members area, which has an array of training guides and videos explaining each of the systems. You are also sent a hard copy manual of the systems in the post.
The systems all involve trading on Betfair and have video examples of trades to show you how to operate the systems.
As a member you also receive Tony’s e-mails, which provide live updates of games he is trading with instructions and screenshots.
There were five systems to trade during our trial, although the majority of trades focus on two of the systems.
Please note that the systems are complicated! Yes, even seasoned traders may take quite a bit of time to learn to trade these systems and a good deal of practice is required to get them right. Tony advises paper trading until you have mastered them, which is sound advice.
The Recovery
The essence of these systems is that they are designed in such a way that you should never lose a trade, because there is a “recovery” process you can follow to get yourself out of trouble if a trade goes wrong.
Now the recovery is complicated and involves backing various different things at the same time. You need to be able to work out how much to place on each separate bet and to do it quickly. That can be very challenging!
I used Bet Angel to assist with this, which has a nifty hedging tool to work out the amount needed to cover a given liability and that certainly helped.
In our experience, the recoveries do “work” as such, if you can get them on in time before another goal is scored.
However, here is the rub of things. In some instances you might not be able to do this and so you could lose a significant portion of your stake in this instance.
Let’s say one of the trades involves using the unders markets. If there is a rush of goals – and anyone who has traded football matches for any length of time will know that can definitely happen – you might not have time to get the trades on and just be left with a lost bet.
The same could happen if you were trading involving backing one team and the other team scored two or three quick goals.
So the systems are not completely foolproof. This should be recognised if you are signing up to the Football Hedging System.
There is nothing we have ever encountered (other than matched betting of course) that can guarantee you a profit whatever happens.
If there was then we would be millionaires and probably wouldn’t be running this website but would be off in the Bahamas being served cocktails by beautiful young ladies instead! 🙂
So please don’t think that this guarantees you winning 100% of the time.
There was also one instance when we were paper trading one match and there was an incredible first half, with the score being 4-2 at half-time.
We asked Tony how we should have traded during that half and he admitted that really it wasn’t possible in that instance.
A first half finishing 4-2 is an extremely rare occurrence though so we shouldn’t get too hung up about that one game.
The other issue with the recovery though is that often you require high multiples of your stake to make it work, especially when there are two or more goals against you. So if for example you started off with total stakes of £100, the recovery might need up to £1,000 to make it work.
That is fine if it does work, but obviously does limit the kind of staking you can do somewhat.
The issue of the recoveries was tackled with the introduction of the stop loss, which is dealt with below.
Tony’s Trades
Having said all this about the recovery process however, it is worth noting that even if you had not used the recovery process but just traded out if things had gone against you and taken a 50% loss of the stake, here are the results from Tony’s trades since he started:
Total Trades 314 Total Recoveries 32 Total Successful Trades 282 Strike Rate 89.8%
Using just a £300 bank delivered a net profit return of £938.93 which is a 308.6% bank growth without compounding.
So even without the recovery, just by following Tony’s trades you would have done very well. This shows just how good Tony is at selecting matches with the criteria for his systems.
The Stop Loss
Perhaps in response to concerns over the problems with the recovery process, Tony recently added some new methods that involve placing “stop losses” so that even if things go against you, you have trades placed that insure you against losing too much.
These are certainly a welcome addition and do add some considerable protection. However, these still need you to trade quickly when things happen in a game, so there is the same risk of lots of goals affecting you. But the amount at risk is less which is good.
The Price
The price for the Football Hedging System is exceptionally high compared to the vast majority of tipsters and betting systems we have reviewed on here, at £1297 for the cheapest package, plus £201 per month for Tony’s advice and e-mails.
So the question is, is that cost justified?
Well, it will depend on a certain extent on how large your staking is as that will define how long it takes to win back the cost of the subscription.
Over the long term you should make it back even with relatively modest staking, but it could take up to a year or longer.
In our view, the cost of the system is too high relative to everything else on the market and should be lower.
However, the cost hasn’t stopped large numbers of people signing up, so clearly people are prepared to pay the substantial fees for access to the system.
And of course there is always the option of a refund, as long as you follow the rules set out regarding refunds in their terms and conditions.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
The Football Hedging System is a suite of systems for trading the football markets on Betfair.
During our trial, we made 387 points profit from following the trades and nearly trebled our bank, with nearly 90% of the trades being successful. These are excellent results by anyone’s standards.
It has been claimed that using the systems means you “can’t lose” because they include a recovery process that allows you to supposedly at least break even from a trade, even if it goes against you.
We don’t think this is quite true, because if there are goals scored before you can execute all aspects of the trade, then you will lose money.
Plus there was a match during the trial where the recovery process didn’t work.
So the process isn’t completely foolproof in our view – you can still lose with it.
However, even without the recovery process, just by following Tony’s trades and accepting 50% loss of the stake when a trade goes against you, would still have made you over 300% bank growth, so there is clearly great value in the systems and Tony has great skill at picking the matches.
Ultimately there are a number of approaches to win football bets, and the Football Hedging System has identified a few unique ones.
Overall then in our view, it is a question of whether you can stomach the high joining costs and be prepared to wait potentially up to a year to make those costs back, as well as putting in a great deal of work in learning the systems.
If you are prepared to do these things, then the Football Hedging System is highly recommended.
Just a quick note to say that the Football Hedging System is closing its doors – apparently for good – on Sunday 11th September.
So if you are interested, now is the time to sign up.
We have been paper trading the new stop loss methods over most of July and August and will revert with our final review and comments shortly.
But in the meantime, you can see below that results have been pretty decent over the course of the trial and if you are serious about your trading and can devote the time to making it work, then the Football Hedging System is a strong package of trading methods.
I mentioned previously that I was looking for a bot to trade the systems automatically. Whilst I haven’t quite managed that, I have started using Bet Angel to hedge the correct scores all at once, we saves a lot of time and messing around with a calculator.
Interestingly, Tony has responded to one of the criticisms of the system – that if things keep going against you in a match you need to keep adding massive amounts of bets to operate the recovery – by introducing a new “stop loss” method.
This basically sets things up so there isn’t a need to do this and makes the potential bank needed for a trade much more manageable.
I am still getting used to this new stop loss system but if it works as well as Tony suggests then it would be a good improvement and would really take the Football Hedging System towards a top rating from us.
One other thing to mention – whilst the system is now closed to new members, we understand that Tony is considering allowing in a small number of new members at the start of the next football season – so watch this space as it were…
What is interesting is that Tony sent round an e-mail a few days ago showing the results since the service started, if you had not even used the recovery process but just traded out if things had gone against you and taken a 50% loss of the stake.
The results were as follows:
Total Trades 314 Total Recoveries 32 Total Successful Trades 282 Strike Rate 89.8%
Using just a £300 bank delivered a net profit return of £938.93 which is a 308.6% bank growth without compounding.
So mighty impressive stuff, showing that even if you didn’t manage to quite master the recovery process, you could still do very well from the Football Hedging System.
However, of course you should try and master the process as that will increase the profits and mean you break even on the trades that go wrong rather than lose.
It has been a quiet time for the Football Hedging Systemas Tony has been on holiday for a couple of weeks so we haven’t had any trades since 13th April.
However, up to that point I had added a further 20 points of profit since our last update to stand at 201 points in profit for the trial so far.
My results for the recoveries haven’t been as good as Tony’s as I am still practicing and learning, so for example on the Roma v Bologna match I made a scratch trade where as Tony made an 18% profit.
He is now tending to attach screenshots to show his positions which is reassuring as you can see that it can be done.
My results also do not include a number of method five selections, which are ones that crop up spontaneously during matches, so if you are not at your computer when that happens you will miss them – as I have.
However, here are Tony’s results for those Method Five Selections:
5th April -East Bengal v Mumbai – ?
6th April – Stallion v Global – 9.59% profit
9th April – Southampton v Newcastle – 5.33% profit
10th April – Nice v Rennes – 6.5% profit
We didn’t receive details of the profits achieved from the East Bengal v Mumbai game, but the others would have added a further 21.42% profit.
Our comments remain much the same as last time – we can see the power of the system but think a bot would help enormously with this to automate things.
Back soon with our next update – Tony is due back from holiday next Monday (9th May) so we should be back trading again then.
The other thing to mention is that the Football Hedging Systemis currently closed to new members, but we understand they may consider opening their doors again when Tony returns.
We have now had a chance to undertake a recovery as a trade went against us in the Ascoli v Vicenza game.
It is a bit of a panic at first when one happens and you try to get all the bets on quickly at the right stakes – this is certainly something you need to practice quite a lot to get right.
I didn’t quite get it right and made a small loss on the trade, but viewing Tony’s screenshots I can see you could have got out at even for the trade.
I actually think what this system would really benefit from is a bot to automate the recovery – then I think you would have the ultimate money making machine.
So any budding bot makers out there…please do get in touch!
Anyway, I also missed a trade on the Switzerland v Rep of Ireland match that would have required a recovery. It was an “advanced method two” so not quite ready for that yet.
There have also been a couple of method fives I have missed as they crop up during the games so it depends if you are at your computer when Tony sends the opportunity as to whether you can do them.
Overall I have been impressed with this so far, the strike rate is as high as promised and I can see the logic in the recoveries.
It is just a question of practicing the recoveries until they become more or less automatic. Tony has helpfully provided some video footage recently of recoveries in action, so this is aiding with the learning process.
Back soon with more updates on the Football Hedging System, hopefully when I have the recovery fully down!
So in terms of the success rate of the system, things certainly seem to be living up to the sales claims so far.
The real test of this system though is when things go wrong and you have to launch what is called a “recovery” to get back what you have risked.
Now we haven’t had any opportunities to undertake recoveries so far, but having looked at the examples and practiced a couple, it seems like a logical method and as far as we can see, should work.
It is complicated though – particularly if there are lots of quick goals in succession – so we are still getting to grips with it.
There is a real buzz around at the moment about a new football trading system that has hit the internet recently.
It is called the Football Hedging System by Tony Langley and I am not sure if I can remember quite as much excitement about a new system.
When you see the sales page you can perhaps understand the excitement.
It makes some extraordinary claims, headlining with the line that in the last few years, a full time working guy has made over £230,000 from using the system.
Even more amazing is the claim that since June 2015, there has not been a single losing trade!
Apparently the system has devised a method for trading football matches on Betfair in such a way that you cannot lose.
Well if that is the case then I think is probably the betting “holy grail.”
You can supposedly make an estimated £9,000 to £12,000 per month trading the system, by winning 90% of your trades and at worst breaking even on the other 10%.
Now with claims like these, the system doesn’t come cheap.
The lowest cost package is the “Gold” option that comes at an upfront payment of £1,297 followed by a monthly subscription of £201 per month which includes support and Tony’s trading selections.
Next is the Platinum package, which costs £1,597 upfront followed by monthly subscriptions of £121.
Finally there is the Diamond Package of £2,597 which includes lifetime support and 28 weeks of selections.
However, there is a risk free 145 day trial of the service available. To qualify for getting your money back you have to have traded at least 30% of Tony’s trades, recorded them in a log and not achieved at least a 30% growth of your bank per month.
Now thankfully Tony has been kind enough to provide me with a copy of the Football Hedging System and the selections for three months so I can test the system, which is a good sign he is confident in the system.
When I first came across this system I have to say I was suspicious as I have seen similarly wild claims made before by other systems over the years that sadly haven’t turned out to be true.
However, there are quite a few people saying this does actually work which is interesting. As ever, only time will tell under a live trial.
I will revert soon with an update on how things are going with the system, hopefully having got my head around it as from what I have seen so far it is very complicated.

Even though it isn’t the ideal time of year for all weather betting, there have still been a decent number of tips so far, with 38 selections since our trial started on 5th July.
A solid start then, let’s hope it’s a platform for big success over the rest of the trial.
Some of the top tipsters we have reviewed so far here at Honest Betting Reviews have been from the Betting Godsstable of tipsters.
So when a new entrant joins their gang of tipping experts we sit up and take notice.
The latest to join the crew is the modestly-named All Weather God.
As you have probably already guessed, this is a tipster who specialises in all-weather racing only.
Although we are in the flat turf season at the moment, there is still plenty of all-weather racing and the discipline seems to be expanding all the time, with Newcastle recently adding a new dirt track.
That may be because the weather is so unpredictable these days, what with climate change and all that as we are experiencing more frequent floods and heavy rains, so racecourses are having to adapt as there is nothing worse for them than losing a load of race days (and income) to the bad weather.
In any event, it is good news for punters as the all weather does tend to be more predictable and less subject to the increasingly variable going conditions we are seeing in flat racing, particularly this summer.
The All Weather God has amassed some pretty impressive results so far, netting over 80 points profit at a strike rate of just under 30% and a return on investment of over 10%.
Six out of seven months so far have been profitable which is encouraging, so hopefully we will see that level of consistency during our trial.

Grant analyses hundreds of US stocks and then sends spreadsheets by e-mail with details of his analysis.
He uses colour-coding to indicate a possible buy (in yellow) or a recommended buy (in green).
The depth of his analysis is very impressive and you can see Grant really knows his stuff. This is definitely not one of those fly-by-night, pump and dump merchants you see so much of on the internet these days.
What you are getting here is very high quality research with all aspects of a stock examined.
Results
For the review, we bought all those stocks that were recommended (i.e. those in green), plus those that Grant bought himself.
The results were very impressive over the course of the six month trial.
We recorded results for two different approaches to following the recommendations:
If you had bought all the stocks and held them, you would currently be 98% up, an excellent total and one that you would struggle to match anywhere. So if you had invested $2,000 in each of the shares recommended, you would have made $1,960 profit over the trial using this approach.
If you had taken the approach that Grant advises on his message board – to sell stocks when they are 5% in profit and to hold the others until they hit that point – you would have made 50% of realised gain and be holding three stocks, that are a combined 20% down currently. So in effect you would be 30% up – also very good for quite a conservative approach.
Plus these figures don’t include dividends – although they don’t include dealing costs either, but we would imagine the dividends would exceed the dealing costs slightly, depending on the amount of your investment of course.
Here are the results in graph format:
As you can see, very impressive growth throughout the trial.
Patience Required
This is the kind of service that requires patience – over the course of six months we only bought 13 stocks.
So if you are looking for instant thrills and loads of trades, this probably isn’t for you.
However, frankly the stats on day trading are pretty horrendous, with over 98% of people losing money, so you are better off avoiding it altogether!
If you are looking to make money though, this seems like a great way of doing it. Grant follows the value approach of Warren Buffett and the results show without doubt that this is very effective.
In our experience, the best way of making money in the stock market is to buy and hold stocks for a good period of time. The shorter a period you trade over, the more likely you are to lose money.
The approach to picking stocks is very selective, with only those that tick all the boxes being recommended.
If you have some money to invest in shares and want to experience excellent returns – the like of which you would struggle to match through any mainstream investment trust or a typical fund manager – then we can highly recommend this.
You will be getting a first class service, with tonnes of research done for you and only the very best value stocks recommended.
The BTMA Wealth Builders’ Clubhas progressed along nicely – albeit quietly – since our last update just over a month ago.
The recommended buys are now 55% up if holding the stocks, very decent returns indeed.
If you had taken the approach of selling stocks when they achieve a 5% gain and holding the others, you would still have +25% of realised gains and be holding three stocks currently.
Grant also sold Chevron (CVX) on 29th June for a 5% gain plus dividends, although the stock was bought before our trial started so won’t be included in our results.
There has been one recommended buy since the last update – Parker-Hannifin Corp – which has moved up nicely since being recommended.
Good to see this one progressing steadily and results are very much in line with those advertised.
There has been good progress for BTMA Wealth Builders’ Club since our last update a month ago, with an increase of 13% on the stocks bought.
That means we are now +11% for the trial taking the approach of holding all the stocks.
If you had taken the approach of selling stocks when they achieve a 5% gain and holding the others, you would have +20% of realised gains and be holding three stocks currently.
Grant also sold Exxon on 15th June for a 5% gain plus a 3.31% dividend per year, although that was bought on 4th March 2015 so well before our trial started.
Just to say again we really like Grant’s no-nonsense approach and straight, honest advice. There is no hyped sales-y rubbish here nor any inflated results to make himself look better than he is, like you see from a lot of supposed stock market “gurus.”
So far what we have seen is very thorough analysis and only shares that tick all the boxes receive a “recommended” rating.
That means there aren’t many that are recommended, but those that are have performed well to date.
It has been a quiet time for BTMA Wealth Builders’ Club, with just 2 stocks bought (plus one that Grant bought himself, so you had the choice of copying him on that as well).
Overall, if you bought all the recommended stocks and held them, at the time of writing your net position would be a loss of 2%.
As one of the first stockmarket products we have reviewed here at Honest Betting Reviews, we were intrigued by Beat the Market Analyzer (BTMA) Wealth Builders Club as it looked like a very promising product.
And we have to say that so far we have not been disappointed.
Frankly there are a lot of rubbish stockmarket products out there that either make ridiculous claims that they will make you untold riches or that are just waffle that is incomprehensible.
This is not the case though with BTMA. What you get with this is genuine, in-depth research on stocks that is clear and very well informed.
Grant who runs the service gives regular analysis on stocks in the following indices:
S&P 500
S&P 400 Mid Caps
NASDAQ 100
DOW 30
Russell 2000 Small Caps
Biggest decliners amongst the entire market
52-week low stocks amonsgt the entire market
What you get with the service is regular weekly spreadsheets with hundreds of stocks analysed in amazing detail.
Each stock Grant looks at gets a thorough analysis which is based on the Warren Buffett ethos of “value investing.”
Grant uses a range of indicators to look at whether a stock is a bargain price, including:
Companies must have been around for 10 years
Good and consistent fundamental data
Do you understand what this company does?
Will this company’s product still be successfully sold within the next 10 years?
Does the company have a durable competitive advantage?
Reviewing financial statements and annual reports
Then having done this analysis, on the spreadsheet there are stocks that Grant considers “possible buys” which are highlighted in yellow and then good buys which are highlighted in green.
So how have things been going so far?
Well there have only been three recommended buys so far, but they have all done very well.
The three stocks that Grant has rated as good buys have made profits at the time of writing of:
10%
5.4%
1%
So excellent progress and well in line with the kind of gains advertised.
Although it is early days and only a small number of stocks have been recommended to buy, we are impressed both with the thoroughness of Grant’s approach and the results.
That’s a rhetorical question really, of course everyone would. He is one of the richest men in the world and an all-time legendary investor.
Now you may not be able to emulate the billions that Buffet has made, but there is a new strategy we have come across that promises to follow his value investing strategy.
The system is called Beat the Market Analyzer (BTMA) and is run by a guy called Grant Gigliotti.
The results on the sales page show that the system has consistently – and convincingly – beaten the S&P 500 over recent years.
From 2013 to present, the S&P 500 has made 38.61% profit, where as BTMA has made 392.06% profit.
In that period it has beaten the S&P 500 in all but 2 months (with four months having no stocks sold), which is a very healthy monthly success rate.
The explanation on the sales page about how Grant developed the strategy is very logical and as I say, is based closely on the value investing approach of Warren Buffett and the mentor of Buffett, Benjamin Graham.
You can get a 14 day trialfor a very reasonable $14, which is a good opportunity to get a feel for the system.
By signing up you will receive the Wealth Builders Club System and your bonus “Company Analysis Reports,” as well as daily recommendations of the most profitable, safest stocks to buy along with thousands of analyzed stocks each week.
So we will be interested to trial this one and see if we can build our stockmarket portfolio in the style of Warren Buffett!
We will return soon with updates on how things are going.

Betfair Renegade is a piece of football betting software that is sold (at certain times) as part of the Profit Maximiser package.
What the software does is find value bets that can be placed at the exchanges rather than the bookies.
How does it work?
Here is an example of what the software looks like when you log in:
The rating on the left in red is the amount of value the software calculates is in the selection – the higher the number the better.
You are advised to only go for value figures above 10 to give yourself a decent edge over the market.
Then you have the match, the league (or competition), the market, selection and current Betfair Odds in blue.
In yellow on the right are what Betfair Renegade calculates the odds should be for that market.
So all you need to do is open the software, check if any of the ratings on the left are above 10 (or whatever value you choose as your cut-off point), then look at the odds.
For our review, we used maximum odds of 11.0 (10/1). It is up to you what odds you want to use, but obviously the higher the odds you are prepared to accept, then the lower your strike rate will become.
Then you simply place the bets and you are done – there is no trading involved, you just let the bets run.
Results
We chose to follow the software for six months as the Summer period was quieter with few bets, so we wanted enough bets to get a proper sense of how well it worked.
Well we are pleased to say it worked very well, with 233 points profit made to 10 point stakes (or 23 points to 1 point stakes).
Here are the results in graph format:
As you can see, things started off well, tailed off towards the middle but then took off later on to finish well in profit.
That profit came with a strike rate of 20% and a return on investment of 14%, which is very good for football betting.
It is important to be aware that everyone’s results from using Betfair Renegade will differ slightly depending on when you access the software each day as the selections are constantly changing as the odds change.
However, the fundamental value will always be there so in the long run the profit made should be pretty similar.
Overall we think the results are very impressive and given how tough it has been to find a winning football tipster or betting system, it is great to find something as simple and effective as Betfair Renegade.
We are therefore happy to recommend Betfair Renegade in its own right and given how good Profit Maximiser already is, then with Betfair Renegade added in you are getting one very special betting package.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The software is very easy to use and it only takes a couple of minutes per day to operate. It even links straight through to the relevant Betfair page, so all the work is done for you!
Availability of prices: The vast majority of the time you will be able to get your bets matched, but occasionally there won’t be enough liquidity so you may have to put in an order and wait for your bet to be matched.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 20%, so some patience will be required when following the service.
Advised Betting Bank: We used a 100 point bank for the trial to 1 point stakes (or 1000 to 10 point stakes), which was never threatened and should be comfortable for this system.
Subscription costs: Profit Maximiseris available for a 14-day trial for just £1, followed by a payment of £96. Please note that Betfair Renegade is only available at certain times, so to check if it is available, please contact Mike Cruikshank at support@bonusbagging.co.uk
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Betfair Renegade – which comes on a limited basis as part of Profit Maximiser– ticks two of the major boxes for us in terms of what we are looking for from a football betting system.
Firstly, it can make a profit – having made over 230 points during our trial.
Secondly, it is profitable at Betfair so doesn’t require use of the bookies.
It is remarkably simple to use as well and should take no more than a few minutes each day to place the bets.
So it’s a definite thumbs up from us for Betfair Renegade and a worthy addition to your betting portfolio.
Make sure you check with the owner Mike Cruickshank whether it is available though as he only sells limited copies – you can e-mail him at support@bonusbagging.co.uk
Betfair Renegade has been going great guns since our last update, adding 227 points profit since our last update, bringing it to 208 points up for the trial overall.
This is football betting software that finds value selections on Betfair. It is incredibly easy to use, you just click into it and the selections for the day are there automatically.
You can only get access to it through purchasing the Profit Maximiser matched betting system.
It has been a bit slow over the summer with few bets but now we are in the main football season, things are picking up.
Good to see the positive results lately and let’s hope that continues.
Things have continued to pick up for Betfair Renegade – a piece of football software available as part of the Profit Maximiser betting suite – since our last update, adding a further 14 points of profit to bring it back to -19 points for the trial overall.
Things have picked up a bit for Betfair Renegade – a piece of football software available as part of the Profit Maximiser betting suite – since our last update.
It has added a nice 52 points of profit over the last month, taking the total for the trial to date to 33 points down.
It must be stressed that the software churns out lots of selections, so no two people would necessarily get the same results. Our results are from checking the software a couple of times per day, but if you checked at different times to us you would no doubt have different results.
Most of the selections are long shots, so a degree of patience is required with Betfair Renegade. Indeed, the average odds of our bets so far has been 6.3, so just over 5/1.
Anyway, good to see the comeback from Betfair Renegade and let’s hope it continues.
It is worth mentioning that we haven’t been able to record every selection that the software generates, as that changes all the time according to odds movement and there are some days we have missed, so you may have got different results to us if you had been using the software.
Anyway, let’s hope things pick up for us over the remainder of the trial.
It has been a solid start to our trial of Betfair Renegade, which is a piece of software that finds value selections in football matches on Betfair. It is available as part of the Profit Maximiserbetting package.
So far we are 55 points in profit to 10 point stakes after 29 bets.
The system is super-easy to use. You just log in, check the software page and see if there are any matches that fit your criteria.
Then you can click links on the page straight through to Betfair and place the bet – so you can be done in a couple of minutes.
So far we haven’t made as much use of the tool is we could have done, so we will try to make sure we find more selections and get a greater quantity of results to measure it by.
But results to date have been good, with a couple of cracking winners including Watford to beat Arsenal at 10.5 and Cowdenbeath to beat Peterborough at 11.
The other thing to mention is that we have amended the original criteria slightly to include matches with odds of up to 11 and value ratings of 10 and above. This is because with our original criteria there were just too few matches really.
So every time Mike releases something new, we – and probably a good number of you – get rather excited.
The latest product from Mike is something called Betfair Renegade.
Now at first I was wondering what this might be about as it sounded more like a film with Wesley Snipes in it than a betting system.
However, this is in fact something quite new for Mike and it will be of interest to those you who live outside of the UK and Ireland who unfortunately can’t enjoy some of Mike’s other products.
This is in fact a straightforward betting method – no trading, no matched betting, just a tool for identifying value in football matches on Betfair.
It is apparently based on a mathematical algorithm that has crunched the numbers on thousands of passed matched and come up with a way to identify value.
Now I am sometimes sceptical of things like this that are based on so-called “advanced maths,” but given Mike’s past record of success on betting systems I am more interested than I would normally be.
The software basically spews out markets where it has identified value and gives you a rating based on how much of an edge it calculates you have over Betfair on that particular market.
You then just place the bets on Betfair and you are done! That is it – amazingly simple.
Mike advises backing only those selections that are priced under 10 and where there is an edge of at least 15%.
So we are going to have a go at following those criteria and seeing how we do over the course of a trial.
It will be interesting to see if the 15% edge translates into that kind of level of profit over the long term.
Our aim is to proof at least 100 bets and see how the system performs.
Now at the moment Betfair Renegade is only available as a bonus product when you subscribe to Profit Maximiser, but we have asked Mike if he plans to release it separately as a stand-alone product.
Will update you when I have further news on this front.

When people ask us what is the most important thing to look for in a betting system or tipster, we normally reply longevity.
Any tipster or system can do well over the course of a few months.
But very few can do well over the course of say a year. Even fewer can continue to deliver consistent profits over the course of a number of years.
And only the very best can sustain profit-making over 5 years or longer.
Horse racing tipster Bet Alchemist is one of those who has done this and really stood the test of time.
Since starting tipping in 2011, they have made over 750 points profit, with an average staking of 1 point per selection.
So if you’d backed all those tips at just £25 per point, you would have made £18,750 – not bad going at all!
With an average of 8 profitable months per year, you are talking very consistent tipping here.
These are very impressive results over a long period of time and we are pleased to say that they have lived up to that record during our trial.
With a profit of 38 points achieved at a return on investment of 26%, this is very much what we were expecting from Bet Alchemist.
Here is a look at the profit graph for the trial:
Other than a bit of a dip half way through, it was fairly steady upward growth and finished well up in the end.
The only downside of Bet Alchemist was that the results at Betfair SP were considerably lower than at advised prices, with the trial finishing just 3 points up compared to 38 points up at advised prices.
So it doesn’t look like Bet Alchemist is viable to follow at Betfair SP and this is a service for those with bookie accounts still available to them.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: Tips are sent out normally the evening before racing or in the morning, so plenty of time to get bets on. With an average of just over 1.5 bets per day, there is not a huge amount of work involved in following the service.
Availability of prices: Prices do tend to get smashed in by the time of the race – hence the much lower results at Betfair SP – so you need to get your bets on quickly. Prices are quoted from a variety of bookies and are normally available for a short while after tips are posted, so it is just a case of moving as quickly as possible and certainly within an hour or so if you can.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 33% (including placed horses), so pretty respectable stuff and returns will be frequent enough.
Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank was advised, but we used a 100 point bank for the trial and it was never in jeopardy during the trial. There was a 60-point drawdown in 2015 though, so you might want a 150 point bank to be really safe.
Subscription costs: Subscription costs are £30 per month or £79 per quarter, which is very reasonable for a service of this quality.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Bet Alchemist has shown itself to be a very consistent performer over a long period of time – with over 750 points of profit made in 5 years of tipping.
And that consistency was demonstrated during our trial as well, with 38 points of profit racked up to 1 point stakes and with a return on investment of 26%.
The only minus point is that it doesn’t seem practical to follow the service at Betfair SP, so this is probably one for those who still have some bookie accounts available to them.
As long as you fit that bill, then Bet Alchemist comes highly recommended and should definitely be added to any betting portfolio.
That is with staking of generally 0.5pts e/w, so is probably actually better than it sounds when you consider most tipsters use higher staking than that.
At Betfair SP however, things have been moving more slowly, with 5 points actually lost since our last update, meaning they are 3 points down at Betfair SP for the trial.
Prices are fairly obtainable and they quote odds from a number of different bookies when giving out the tips, not just the single best one.
So you should be able to get close to matching the results at advised prices as long as you have a few bookies account open.
At Betfair SP though, the jury is out at the moment.
Alchemy – the process of turning base metals into gold.
In betting terms, that probably means just making a long-term profit – which for the vast majority of punters and even most tipsters is seemingly just as difficult as creating gold from metal.
The latest horse racing tipster we are about to trial here at Honest Betting Reviews has been able to do just that over the last 4 years though, racking up close to 700 points in profit in that time.
So perhaps the title of Bet Alchemist is richly deserved in this case.
Their impressive profit totals have been achieved with an average stake of just 1 point – so no mad staking system used to inflate results like some tipsters are known to have done.
There are apparently 6-8 bets per week, so a reasonably selective approach is taken to betting.
On average they have managed 8 profitable months out of 12 per year, which is a very decent level of consistency.
The average odds of the tips is 12/1, so we are talking about needing a degree of patience to follow the Bet Alchemist. But with results like theirs, it sounds like that kind of patience has been richly rewarded.
So far in 2016 they are apparently 91 points in profit, so seems like a good time to join them.
Anyway, without further ado we will get the trial underway and hopefully see some decent returns over the next three months.
We will be back soon with our first update on how things are going.
Football Advisor is a football tipster that has been running since 2014 and who has established an enviable reputation in that time.
Since starting up, they have amassed over 350 points of profit at a strike rate of over 35%.
So how did they get on during our trial?
Well, results were solid rather than spectacular, with 8 points profit being accumulated over our three month trial.
Here is how things went in graph format:
As you can see, a bit of a rollercoaster over the trial but a nice profit in the end.
There are a good volume of bets, with nearly 200 bets being advised over the trial, even though it was conducted largely over the Summer.
Tips are sent out by e-mail and are sent with plenty of time before matches, often the day before.
Here is an example of an e-mail:
—————————————————————————————————————————————— Slovakia v England
The Sam Allardyce era gets underway today in earnest as England play away against Slovakia on Sunday. This will also be England’s first game since that humiliating defeat to Iceland at the Euro’s.
Hodgson, Capello, McLaren, Eriksson, Keegan, Hoddle, El Tel and even Graham Taylor all won their first game. In fact, you have to go all the way back to Bobby Robson before we find an England Manager who did not win their first game – a 2v2 draw against Denmark.
The only England manager to lose their first game was Sir Alf Ramsey – And that didn’t work out to bad in the end did it. So perhaps a defeat for Big Sam, will be a positive sign after all.
England & Big Sam to start with a win.
Today’s selections below
2.00u – England win at 2.05 with Ladbrokes (World Cup / Slovakia) 0.60u – England -1.5 at 4.00 with Uni (World Cup / Slovakia)
————————————————————————————————————————————————
It is good to see some analysis with the tips and the logic behind the bets being made. You do worry sometimes whether some tipsters are just sticking a pin in a piece of a paper to pick their tips!
Anyway, we feel that the profit made during the trial wasn’t quite enough to warrant a recommended rating for Football Advisor.
Betting at £10 per point would have made you £80 profit over the trial, but then with subscription costs of £97 per month or £197 per quarter, that wouldn’t have covered the fees.
So we think a neutral rating is the fairest verdict at this stage.
However, with an impressive long-term record and considering our trial was run mainly over the Summer, we think it is worth keeping an eye on Football Advisor to see how they progress over the coming months.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: As mentioned above, tips are normally sent out in good time before matches, so plenty of time to get your bets on. Although there are two bets per day on average, it is more a case of some days with no bets and then others (normally weekends) with 5 or 6.
Availability of prices: The prices were generally very much available and in some instances by using the exchanges you could even beat the advised prices.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 34%, which is a little below the long-term average of 38% and probably explains why results weren’t quite as good as previously.
Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank was advised, but we used a 100 point bank for the trial, which should be enough to cover losing runs.
Subscription costs: Subscription costs are £97/month, £197/quarter or £388/6 months.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
As regular followers of Honest Betting Reviews will know, finding a profitable football tipster has proved very difficult indeed!
So coming into the trial of Football Advisor, we were quite hopeful of finally having found a quality and honest football tipping service.
We are not disappointed by the results by any means and a profit is a profit.
However, given the high subscription costs of £97 per month or £197 per quarter, you would need to have bet at around £50 – £100 per point to really make this worthwhile.
Now there may be some of you out there who can bet at those stakes, but for the majority staking of £10 – £20 per point would be more realistic.
So we feel a neutral verdict is reasonable at this stage and we will keep an eye on things for a while to see how things develop for Football Advisor.
Footy tipster Football Advisor has been on a strong run since our last update, adding over 13 points of profit to stand at 11 points up for the trial as a whole.
Just to recap, Football Advisor is a football tipster that provides tips by e-mail for major football leagues and tournaments.
It has been a busy time for them with the Euros and Copa America going on. After three weeks we have already had 90 bets, which is quite high for a football service.
Things had started off very strongly in June, but have just tailed off slightly with some of the topsy-turvy results in the Euros.
Anyway, not much lost so far and plenty of time for things to pick up.
Our long search for a winning football tipster finally found some success recently in the form of Thomo’s Tips, who managed a very profitable trial here on the site and have continued to do well since our trial ended.
Not resting on our laurels however, we are always on the lookout for new football tipsters of promise.
One that we have been hearing a fair bit about on the grapevine is Football Advisor, a very impressive and professional-looking football tipping website that has been around since 2014.
They tip mainly in the big European leagues and international tournaments and matches, although there are a few bets in some of the minor leagues as well.
Football Advisor’s record since they started just before the 2014 World Cup is pretty outstanding for a football tipster, with just under 350 points profit having been accumulated.
Those profits have been achieved at a return on investment of 26% and a strike rate of 38%, both very strong metrics.
With results like these, the service is understandably one of the more pricey ones around, with subscriptions costing £97/month, £197/quarter or £388 for 6 months.
However, if they can maintain the kind of results achieved to date then those subscription costs would be well worth it, presuming of course you can bet at reasonable stakes.
Although the end of May isn’t normally the best time to start a trial of a football tipster, we do have the Euros just around the corner which will be a veritable feast of betting, plus the Copa America and of course the Summer leagues.
So plenty of action to get our teeth into and we understand Football Advisor will be betting in all of it.
Without further ado then we will get our trial underway and let’s see if we can add a second service to our list of winning football tipsters.
Winintennis is a tennis tipping service that provides tips on both men’s and women’s tennis.
We subscribed to their main pre-match betting tips, which costs £59.95 per month.
They also sometimes provide some free in-play tips and there is a dedicated in-running service costing an eye-watering…wait for it…£499.99 per month!
The main thing to note about their pre-match tips is that there aren’t very many of them! We had just 17 tips in three months of subscribing.
They ended up making 4 points profit over the trial, but we felt that once subscription costs are taken into account, it barely seems worth following the service for just 5 or 6 tips per month.
So we will give Winintennis a neutral rating – perhaps if they could up the volume of bets and keep the strike rate at a similar level, we would consider upgrading to a passed rating.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: Good. Tips are sent out by e-mail and as we say, there are very few so following the service will take very little of your time.
Availability of prices: Prices were generally obtainable and occasionally by using the exchanges you can beat the advised prices.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 89%, which if there was a higher volume bets could result in strong bank growth.
Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank was advised, but we used a 25 point bank for the trial which seemed sufficient as most of the tips are at odds on and with a high strike rate, should not be too risky.
Subscription costs: Subscription costs are £59.95 per month for the pre-match tips.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
Winintennisis a low-volume tennis tipster that produced 4 points of profit during our three month trial.
It is an easy service to use and we should always commend a service that makes a profit.
However, with just a 16% growth of the bank in three months and once subscription costs are taken into account, we don’t think 4 points profit is quite enough to warrant an approved rating.
However, with such a low bet volume and low points total, there is a serious question as to whether it is worth following once subscription costs are taken into account.
We will return shortly with our final review – but I think you can guess what we are going to say…
As we said previously, this is a very low volume service and with generally short-odds selections, it would take a long time to build a bank with this one.
So with just a month to go, it seems unlikely we will be much in profit come the end of the trial.
The service seems to be more about trying to get you to sign up to their “heavily discounted” subscription for in-play tips at a whopping £499.99 per month.
If that is “heavily discounted” we wonder what the full price would be!
In addition, they send out free in-play tips, but weirdly these are mainly bets for individual games further down the line in a current match when you don’t know what the odds will be. The odds they post for those bets are often not actually available.
So we are not sure what to make of those free in-play tips.
But the main tips are in profit, so we can’t really complain thus far.
With the tennis season in full swing now and the French Open slowly working its way towards a conclusion, there is a great deal of tennis action to bet on and much more coming up over the Summer.
We have one trial of a tennis tipster that has just concluded – i.e. that of Tennis Bett – and one ongoing – that of TennisTips.co.uk.
So we are pleased to have found another tennis tipster to test out in the form of Winintennis.
This is a service that has been around for a long time – right back to 2001 according to their website, when they apparently tipped Goran Ivanisevic to win Wimbledon at 150/1!
There are some fairly bold claims made on the website about being able to treble your bank in 3 months and that you can make £5,000 – £10,000 per month tax-free, so it will be interesting to see if they can achieve results like these under the spotlight of a live trial.
There are no results published on the website, which can be a worrying sign but does not in itself mean the service is no good.
There is a just a list of underdog winners, which doesn’t tell us very much.
You can get free tips under a three-month trial, which are in-play tips.
The paid subscriptions cost £59.95/month and for that you get the match tips.
So without further ado we will get our trial underway and will report back soon on how things are going.
Jason Bond Picks is a stock market advisory service that offers up live picks plus videos, advice and a live chat room.
At the outset of our review, we tried to follow the picks and buy and sell as Jason did.
However, the problem is that by the time you have received the pick, the price has nearly always changed and you cannot get the same price as Jason did.
That is the case in both buying and selling the stock, so you are missing out on value on both sides.
In short, it didn’t really work following the picks.
Whilst Jason made 245% profit, we made just 25%, which once you take the costs of dealing into account, doesn’t leave you with much.
Anyway, Jason doesn’t advise just following his stocks blindly, so that is probably not the way to go.
Included in the subscription package is also advice and training on looking for patterns and indicators to trade like Jason does.
However, having looked at this we didn’t feel there was anything particularly outstanding or foolproof there that would guarantee making you the kinds of money Jason talks about.
There are some useful training aids and videos, plus spending time in the chat room is a good way to pick up ideas and learn from other traders.
Overall as part of the package we feel you will probably improve as a trader, but ultimately here at Honest Betting Reviews we have to judge systems by their results.
And we just didn’t feel the results were quite good enough, once trading and subscription costs are taken into account, to justify a recommended rating.
So it’s a neutral rating for Jason Bond Picks for us – a lot of marketing here but sadly we didn’t find it worked to follow Jason’s picks.
However, there are three fairly important things to be aware of when looking at the results.
Firstly, you will struggle to match Jason’s results exactly. By the time his picks have been sent out, the prices tend to have changed quite a bit, losing some of the value he has secured.
So as you will see from the right side of the results spreadsheet, our results haven’t been quite as impressive as Jason’s.
As you can see, whilst he is 54% up, we are 22% up so far.
That is still very good and six of the eight trades to date have been winners, with one effectively being a scratch trade.
Secondly, Jason is trading in very large amounts, so the fact that he is over $23,000 in profit so far is partly due to the fact that he is buying in chunks of $30,000 – $50,000 for each trade.
You may not (and I have to say I am not able to!) match those kinds of stakes. But just set yourself what is realistic and you can still make a healthy profit based on what we have seen so far.
Finally, if you are based outside the US it is worth bearing in mind that Jason’s picks are all US stocks, some of which may not be easily be available to buy via all stockbrokers in other countries.
We use Hargreaves Lansdown for our trades, who are a UK-based broker and are very good for US stocks. So far we have been able to buy all but one of the stocks through them.
For those that aren’t available through stockbrokers, there are always spread betting companies like IG Index and FXTM who also cover US stocks.
So you should be able to follow the vast majority of the trades if you are outside the US, but just be aware you may miss one of two.
Now of course Jason Bond Picks is about more than just Jason’s trades – there are a number of other interesting features to the site.
There is a live chat room where you can pick up strategies and tips from expert stock traders, plus have a gas with other share enthusiasts.
There is also a penny stocks 101 section, which is a step-by-step guide to trading penny stocks.
In addition, there are also helpful video lessons on the site and plenty of other useful info.
One other thing to note, apparently Jason is heading to LA in the middle of the month to deliver a NEW Porsche 911 Targa to a client, who at the young age of 25, is now a millionaire with $1,000,000+ in trading profits (audited) since joining Jason Bond Picks just 2 years ago.
Apparently the guy started out with less than $50,000 and is now a millionaire from following Jason Bond Picks.
Now we can’t obviously verify this one way or the other but would be pretty amazing if true!
Anyway, so far we are impressed withJason Bond Picksand are quite excited by the profit building potential of the service.
When we started this site, we had intended to cover both betting systems and financial trading systems.
However, to date we must say that the vast majority have been betting systems. This is our own preference and they tend to be a little less time consuming to review.
There are lots of good potential financial trading strategies out there too though.
And to be honest, if something makes money then we don’t really care if it’s based on sport, games, casinos, financial markets or whatever else people may bet on – the most important thing is that it makes money!
So to correct the imbalance we have had on the site to date we are intending to do some more reviews of financial and forex systems.
First up is Jason Bond Picks (no relation to James we understand), a guy who focuses on winning small cap swing trades.
We have heard good things about this site from other stockmarket traders, so thought it would be a good place to start.
Jason is a professional trader and teaches people to trade stocks. He has apparently made over $500,000 in trading profits since the inception of his site.
He has a verified record of profits in the last few years of:
2015: 188% profit
2014: 31% profit
2013: 78% profit
So pretty good records, although it is not clear where these figures have been verified.
Anyway, there are potentially two options for trading with Jason.
One is the day trading option, for supposedly “greedy, trigger happy traders” (sound familiar anyone?) who need profitable intraday trades.
Then there is the swing trading option, which is designed to make money without being chained to your computer all day. There are apparently an average of 3 swing trades per week with a hold time of 1-4 days.
We will be focusing on the latter of these two, whilst keeping an eye on the first one.
So, with our first foray into financial trading for a while, let’s hope we are in safe hands with Jason Bond – and end up not too shaken, or stirred (sorry, couldn’t resist a Bond-related pun)…
Back soon with our first update on how things are going.

Galileo Racing is a horse racing tipster from the reputable Pro Betting Club stable.
Coming into our trial, it had made over 300 points profit at a return on investment of over 25%, so we were very hopeful that this would turn out to be a winner.
Sadly though, things didn’t quite work out as we had hoped and the trial finished with a loss of 13 points.
As things go it is not the worst trial we have ever had and there is always the possibility they will get things back on track soon.
So for the moment we give them a neutral rating and hopefully things will improve for Galileo Racing over the Autumn and beyond.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: Not bad. You have to log in to the Pro Betting Club site each day rather than having the tips sent to you by e-mail/text, which would be preferable. But there are usually just one or two bets per day, so the time involved is minimal.
Availability of prices: There are no prices advised as such, which is very unusual for a horse racing tipster.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 39%, which includes placed horses.
Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank was advised, but we used a 100 point bank for the trial, which seemed plenty enough to take account of any losing runs.
Subscription costs: Subscription costs are £39.50 per month or £89.50 per quarter.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
It’s been a slightly disappointing trial for the horse racing tipster Galileo Racing.
A loss of 13 points was not what we were hoping for, but was not the worst outcome of a trial we have seen either.
So a neutral verdict and a watching brief will be the order of the day for this one for the time being.
At Betfair SP they have added 6 points of profit since our last update to reach -24 points for the trial overall.
We have just a couple of weeks left in our trial of Galileo Racing, so let’s hope for a strong run at the end to bring them into profit for the trial overall.
It’s been an up and down start to our trial of Galileo Racing, who stated off strongly and went 13 points into profit quickly, but have had a tough run since then.
So far for the trial they are 6 points down at early prices and 10 points down at Betfair SP.
Interestingly they don’t actually include advised prices with their selections, so it is just a case of grabbing the best price you can when the tips are released.
It is very early days in the trial, so plenty of time to get going, with Royal Ascot this week being a good starting point hopefully.
It has had 13 out of 14 winning months so far, so very good on that front.
The strike rate is around 30%, which is very respectable for a racing service and means winners should be regular enough.
The return on investment is apparently 25%, which over a 14 month period is very high indeed. There aren’t many tipsters that manage above a 20% ROI in the long term.
Staking is sensible as well, with either a 2 point win bet or 1 point each way on every tip.
So that just leaves the question of whether prices are obtainable.
Well we will find out soon enough!
Indeed, that is partly what reviewing these services is about, in addition to checking results are accurate and that they are practical to follow.
So without further ado, we will get our trial of Galileo Racing underway and let’s hope it lives up to the pre-trial billing we have just given it!
We will revert soon with our first update on how things are going.
