Twiggytwo, could you explain a little more about CSI and where you can get details - a link or web address perhaps. Is it expensive? Many thanks Alfaman

BigB, thanks a lot - I'm off to look at those links. Alfaman DaxTrader - I see what you mean regarding risk and position size etc - it's which index the quoted 400 points refers to that matters - I was just perplexed by your reference to 400pts/month being 4800 p/annum which is a sort of truism.

Paul Thanks for your considered reply. Much as I suspected really but I hadn't thought that two people using the same system could achieve such varying results - to me this means they are not following the system - but probably for quite understandable reasons. Daxtrader - I think that 400...

Having just read the Goldline stuff following a link from ADVFN and receiving their email I almost started a thread here and then thought to search, and found this one. Very helpful. Folks here are (rightly in my opinion) very skeptical of these schemes but it amazes me that punters must be...

Hugo, Are those margins with D4F you mentioned for rolling bets or futures ? Like Bigboy I couldn't get better than 5428 before close with Fins. I know the rules say don't enter until within 25 pts of the ideal but what if this doesn't arise ? Wait for the next reverse ? Or trade another...

I have read this thread with much interest having been following a similar path to PJ until fiding this board and , like him, I take my hat off to you guys. Having found I could not accurately judge the entry/exit (as shown by my declining balance) I started trying a system based on arbitrage...

Wideboy, I'm just using an excel spreadsheet to analyse Hi Lo Open Close data downloaded from a free download website. Obviously, as you pointed out earlier we can neither apply the actual binary odds or the spreadbetting bias using this method butit's all I've got. Can you recommend a good...

Post script to last message - that was assuming a very small (ie 4 points) average bias by the spreadbetting companies. A bias of 9 points wipes the profit out completely for this year.

Sandpiper, Interesting thoughts. As to your question "why ?" I am open to any better system you can suggest ( I am looking for a mechanical EOD system that makes regular profits and preferably doesn't leave the position open over night or rely on discretionary input) but from my calcs. the...

Getting back to the origin of this thread - today worked well (if only I'd trusted the embrio system enough - Dow up yesterday, binary odds on FTSE were 36 to go up at 7:00 am this morning - a £3 stake would have given £222. That'll do nicely, ching!

IK Thanks - D4F here I come! Alfaman (PS those margins I quoted were December futures however)

Interestingly - well to me anyway, when I saw my money dropping to zero I managed to hedge the loss with the a binary on the Dow. The "Close Up >100" was the highest odds in the 20 point banding so I bought the "Close >50pts up" for £3 at 69 thus recovering all but £2.50 of my FTSE down losses...

IK I expect the double ration of toiletries came in handy as the FTSE soared and the Dow/FTSE can narrowed this morning - but then the Dow came charging to the rescue adding 60 points to my personal trade. Another fine day for the system. Unfortunately I'm only in at 50p each way because I...

Gaffs, I don't use ADVFN but it's normally INDU or DJIA Alfaman

I thought I'd cracked it today with a bet on the FTSE down (ie following Tuesday's Dow) at 14.7 at around 12:00 before the Dow opened, so I bought £5 and couldn't resist another £5 at 4.4 an hour later, what a bargain - so, that's another ton down the pan! I hope tomorow's better. Alfaman
