Staking Plans

Level stakes

This is the simplest of our staking plans, it consists of betting a set amount of money and placing that same amount on every bet. A good starting point for this plan would be to use a 100 point betting bank. This is easily achieved by dividing your total amount of betting funds and dividing it by 100. This will give you a safe 1% level stake amount.

Rating : 8/10 Low Risk. Needs a high strike rate of wins to show profit.

The Martingale System

The Martingale staking plan consists of doubling up the stakes after you lose until you get a win. You must have a large betting bank, regular winners and odds over 1/1 or 2.0 must be obtained for this system to work. In theory you will always recover your losses and make a profit as long as your bankroll can support you. The reality is losing runs happen and the stakes can get very high very quickly with this method.

Rating : 3/10 High Risk. If applied correctly can be very profitable but remains a risky method.

The Reverse Martingale System

The Reverse Martingale System is a plan that consists of doubling up your stakes not when you lose, but when you win. You start with a one point stake and then double your stake after you find a winner. Should the next bet also win, then you would double up your stake once again, continue this trend for a maximum of 3 bets. If any bet loses, or when you have got three winners, you should revert back to the original stake.

Rating : 5/10 Medium Risk. Alternative style of betting can pay dividends if you have a brief winning streak.

Percent of bank (with ratchet)

This is our recommended staking plan.

To use this simple but effective staking system you would initially use a starting figure of 1% obtained by dividing the whole of your betting bank by 100 to give you the 1% figure. Using level stakes, you wait until your bankroll has increased and then you recalculate your new 1% stake value. This will be 100 divided by your new bankroll. You only recalculate after your bankroll increases and you do not decrease the stakes if you lose. This method is a way of compounding your profits and enables the profits to grow faster and work harder than betting at level stakes.

Rating : 9/10 Low Risk. Requires a high strike rate of wins but has capacity to really grow your betting bank safely over a sustained period.

Laying Staking Plans

Fixed Liability Plan

The Fixed Liability Staking Plan is one of the simplest and most effective Laying Plans you can use. By having a Fixed Liability, you know exactly how much you stand to lose should your lay bet not go the way you wanted it to. To implement the fixed liability plan divide your bankroll by 50 to achieve a 2% value and that is the figure of Liability that should be used for placing Lay Bets. For example if you have a bank balance of $200, your fixed liability would be $5. If you was to Lay a Horse priced at 3.0 on the exchanges, your Lay Stake would equal $2.50 and your liability would remain fixed at $5. The advantage of using a method like this is that you know where you stand if a selection should be unsucessfull and limits your losses to only 2%.

Rating : 7/10 Low Risk. Simple entry level Laying Plan.

Fixed Stake Plan

The Fixed Stake Laying Plan is another very simple and possibly more effective plan for Laying. Instead of having a fixed liability like the Fixed Liability Plan, you have a set or fixed stake instead. To implement the Fixed Stake Laying Plan you should divide your bank roll by 100 to achieve a 1% figure. This figure should be the Fixed Lay Stake amount. For example, if you had a bankroll of $500, dividing this figure by 100 would give you a unit $5, this figure should be Fixed Stake amount for any Lay bets that you place. The only downside to this system is you have to be aware that larger odds carry larger liabilities.

Rating : 7/10 Low Risk. Care should be taken to avoid high odds with high liabilities, but can have great profit potential.

Fixed Stake (with ratchet)

The Fixed Stake with ratchet is very similar to the Fixed Stake Laying Plan above with one exception. Once the bankroll has increased in profit, you must re-calculate your new improved 1% figure. Take your new improved bank balance and re-divide by 100 to give you a new slightly higher Fixed Stake. Only ever re-calculate your betting bank when you are in profit, we use the ratchet to make sure our profit grows in the right direction and help us compound better profits over time.

Rating : 8/10 Low Risk. Great potential to generate long term profits.
