Introduction to The Daily Bargain

If you aspire towards betting professionally, the Daily Bargain service will guide you through the process. Even if you don't have those aspirations, you can set in motion a simple investment which has the potential to consistently out-perform any conventional high-street package.

A professional betting operation involves careful planning from the start. An investment bank is set up, staking from the bank is optimised in order to maximise profits and minimise the effect of negative sequences. Bets are researched, with pricing a paramount consideration. Re-investment of profits provides the longer-term growth that leads to ultimate fulfilment (either professional status or a successfully concluded investment), and this is achieved without ever increasing the relative risk factor attached to the investment.

1. One race is targeted each day.

2. You will receive a main bet and a next-best (nb) advice for the featured race. The advices are sent by private email the evening before racing.

3. Staking advice is described below.

4. In addition to the main bet, a next-best (nb) selection is provided for optional use only. Although not included in the published profit figures, the 'nb' selections may be used to formulate other bets as required (eg. dutching, forecasts etc).

5. The Notepad, which sets out the logic behind the bets, is provided with every advice.

6. In the current economic climate there are more and more reasons why betting, when conducted professionally, can provide a very attractive alternative to traditional forms of financial investment. Please read my article, 'An Introduction to Betting as an Investment', lower down this page.

Staking Advice for The Daily Bargain

1. Set aside a bank for your investment.

2. Divide your opening balance by 50 to obtain the value of 1 point.

3. Stake 1 point to win on each main bet ('next-best' advices are for optional use only).

4. Ensure you obtain a price which is at least as big as the minimum advised. Guidance on taking prices can be found here (opens in new window).

5. Rule off your account after 100 bets and divide the closing balance

by 50 to obtain the new value of 1 point.

6. Use the new 1 point level stake for the next 100 bets.

7. Repeat the cycle for the duration of your investment.

8. Once the initial bank doubles in value, take out the original capital and start the investment plan again, with a new bank of the same initial value as the first, but which is made up purely from accrued profits. You need only do this once as all future investment from this point will be funded by accrued profits.

A Brief Introduction to Betting as an Investment

In the current economic climate there are increasingly more reasons why betting, when conducted professionally, can provide a very attractive alternative to traditional forms of financial investment.

Basic investment philosophy

The setting up of a betting bank is crucial to the success of your investment. That bank is your investment, just as it would be if you had a portfolio of stocks and shares, and my job is to manage it and make it grow. Your investment is geared to the buying of racehorses' chances rather than gold or copper but it works in the same way.

My operation is geared to progressive growth rather than short-term jackpot-hunting. If, at the end of an investment period, the growth of your investment is greater than you could have achieved with a financial package from a high-street bank, building society or financial services outlet, then the exercise will have been worthwhile. Historical performance has shown that far greater rewards than these traditional methods are possible on a consistent basis.

Trading in the chances of racehorses can produce exciting results when handled correctly, as can be seen from the fact that I managed a betting fund which provided a growth of 1,183% over a seven year period.

The main emphasis of my risk management strategy is to safeguard your investment. I will not allow it to be exposed to any greater risk than is necessary. The potential effect of negative sequences is carefully calculated and prepared for. With this essential safeguard in place, staking is optimised to ensure the maximisation of profits.

Here are a few excerpts from the training manual of one of the world's top fund management companies, clearly showing how the principles of traditional investment strategy can be successfully applied to betting:

"...if the risks are either too high or too low, then bet sizes and/or bankroll can be adjusted to produce the desired amount of risk."

"...profits and losses do not likely alternate with smooth regularity; they appear, typically, as winning and losing streaks. When the entire investor-manager team realizes this as natural, it is more likely to stay the course during drawdowns, and also to stay appropriately modest during winning streaks."

"...in actual practice, the most important psychological consideration is ability to stick to the system. To achieve this, it is important (1) to fully understand the system rules, (2) to know how the system behaves and (3) to have clear and supportive agreements between all parties that support sticking to the system."

By correctly following the simple rules of my investment plan you will give yourself every opportunity to reap the rewards it can provide.

Notes on sequences

Sequences are inevitable and can be both positive and negative. They happen whether we like it or not and are unavoidable no matter what we do. It would be nice if our winners could be spread evenly throughout the year but that will never happen. That's why I advise preparing an investment bank before commencing, and, provided we hit a sufficient overall strike rate for the price range we are targeting, our investment will flourish. Detailed discussion on the topic of sequences can be found in my article

Notes on re-investment of profits

With any successful financial plan, re-investment of profits is an important factor in securing optimum long-term performance. With this in mind, my suggestions regarding future management of the initial investment are as follows:

Once the initial bank doubles in value, take out the original capital and start the investment plan again, with a new bank of the same initial value as the first, but which is made up purely from accrued profits. You need only do this once as all future investment from this point will be funded by accrued profits.

Having achieved that first step, review your investment balance after every 100 bets and reset the value of the stake based on the closing balance. By doing this progressively your stakes will increase pro-rata to profit, thus securing optimum long-term benefits without increasing the relative risk factor attached to your investment.
