🚀 Portfolio Bet Systems
One Streamlined Update, & Three Brand New Systems for Members
Hello,
In today’s post, we introduce the latest versions of the Portfolio Bet systems and provide a step-by-step guide on how to import them into Hedger Pro.
Portfolio Bet: Your Automated System Solution For Hedger Pro
Portfolio Bet delivers ready-to-use, off-the-shelf betting systems specifically designed for Hedger Pro.
If you require immediate auto-betting solutions—systems you can import, set stakes for, and run unattended on the Betfair exchange—Portfolio Bet provides this for you with a collection of unique betting systems.
Members receive a continuously updated and maintained pack of systems, including new versions and additional systems, at no extra cost on top of the initial one off purchase price.
All new members who join during a version update receive the current pack, full support, and lifetime updates for all included systems.
Future new systems or packs will be offered to existing members for an initial launch period before being made available for general purchase.
Current System Pack Includes:
Latest course specific fixed liability lay system update, PB FL +.
Plus three brand new Portfolio Bet systems.
Daytime GB, a fixed liability course specific lay system.
PB Back, a favourite backing system.
PB LTA, a lay the favourite fixed profit MTP & fixed liability BSP betting system.
All current members will receive this pack today with MTP and BSP versions, and it is also included for all new members up until the end of December.
You can purchase this comprehensive system pack directly at: ➡️ Get the Portfolio Bet System Pack Now!
Note: Hedger Pro is required to run these systems, as they are provided as unique Keys for import into the software.
Hedger Pro offers fully automated, bespoke betting linked to the Betfair exchange. Learn more and choose from monthly, quarterly, or annual subscriptions: ➡️ Unlock Automation with Hedger Pro
Once imported, you have complete access to the system filters, allowing you to modify them to suit your betting style or simply set your staking and let them run.
You maintain full control, monitoring your progress and results directly within the software.
Furthermore, you can leverage Hedger Pro’s full feature set to create and automate your own unique betting systems.
System Updates and Hedger Pro V1.7
A more efficient system update process is being implemented with the upcoming Hedger Pro V1.7.
I will provide further details in a future news post later this week. This new process will significantly reduce your effort, allowing me to remotely apply changes to the latest versions of your systems, requiring only a quick refresh and re-import from you to keep them current.
This is particularly relevant for the latest update, as Prize Money is a brand new filter now available in Hedger Pro, and it has been deployed in a number of the new systems added to this pack.
The full new update process will be explained and demonstrated for members when V1.7 is released.
The New System Versions: Detailed Analysis
System Structure Clarification
For clarification: The PB FL, PB Back, and Daytime GB systems are all GB course specific.
This means you have 59 individual systems (one for each UK course) for each main system type, which effectively combine to make just three total systems in operation: PB FL (could be classed as two systems), PB Back, and Daytime GB.
Given this structure, most of these individual micro-systems will sit redundant daily, with only the ones for the qualifying courses in operation.
1. The Latest Course Specific Fixed Liability Lay System Update (PB FL)
This update is found in the folder named PB FL, which contains two subfolders: MTP (Minutes to Post) and BSP (Betfair Starting Price). All new systems operate by selecting qualifying bets at 1 MTP.
MTP: Bets are placed at 1 MTP direct to the live exchange using your chosen stake.
BSP: Bets are selected at 1 MTP but placed at the published Betfair Starting Price at the start of the race.
While the results below show MTP performance, BSP generally yields slightly higher profits for most systems, apart from PB LTA.
Important Betfair Rules: Lay betting using BSP requires a minimum stake of £10 and must use Fixed Liability (not Fixed Profit).
Backing via BSP requires a minimum stake of £2. The PB FL systems use Fixed Liability, satisfying the BSP lay betting rule.
Understanding the Results Layout: For all results screenshots taken from the Portfolio Manager within Hedger Pro, the red arrowed rows below I’ve drawn on to show you were to locate the past 1 month of betting activity stats.
The figures shown above those rows reflect the entire historical data range, which begins approximately on January 1st 2021 (60 months of data).
This dual view allows us to see both the overall long-term figures and the performance as if a member had started betting just 30 days ago. The past month’s stats are split into three sections:
Top Black Section: Shows the total activity for all systems running concurrently (backing and laying). This corresponds to the black line on the accompanying graph.
Blue Stats: Show the data for all backing systems combined.
Red Stats: Show the data for all laying systems combined.
The PB FL systems include both Main represented as + next to each course system, and the same for the Booster systems, but with ++ next to each course system.
A booster system will have a selection at a higher odds rank at 1 MTP than the main system, for example the PB FL + system could select a 3rd ranked horse in a race, and the PB FL ++ would select a horse higher ranker, ie 4th or more in the same race if anything qualifies.
Not every race qualifies for a main and booster bet, and some races only have one or the other, a main + bet, or booster ++ bet.
These two options for each of the 59 GB courses, total 118 individual systems, that function as one combined system, or you can split them in to two systems should you prefer.
Combined (+ and ++) Results (1st Jan 2021 – 13th Dec):
P&L (MTP): +1427 points
Max Drawdown (MaxDD): -9 points
This version represents a major upgrade, achieving robust performance with nearly double the bet volume, but using only five core filters at each course: MTP (set to 1), Rank, Odds, Runners, and the Course filter itself.
This minimal filter approach is specifically designed to eliminate backfitting and maximize data-driven honesty in selections.
Both versions + and ++ demonstrate a very good A/E (Actual vs. Expected), which indicates consistency and value (a value over 100% is desirable).
You can choose to run both concurrently or opt for one over the other based on your risk tolerance and preference for volume vs. profit margin.
I believe this updated, stripped-back filter method makes the PB FL system a robust and reliable performer, transitioning consistently from historical data to live betting.
This is the result data if running just the + version on its own.
This is the result data if running just the ++ version on its own.
The core goal of the PB FL system remains capitalizing on the unique differences of each course to find consistent winning lay bets using only essential race data.
By operating with more bets and fewer filters, the system opens up greater daily bet activity, which naturally leads to higher volatility and is reflected in the slightly higher recorded MaxDD compared to the previous version.
However, the previous version had already exceeded its historical MaxDD when transitioning from race data to live betting, hitting a total MaxDD of -9 points for me.
While allowing the system to complete its natural profit cycle would eventually correct the balance, I concluded that this was not the most efficient route to success.
We see something that is obvious and could be improved, or we observe and let it run its cycle. In this instance, I rapidly decided that eliminating unnecessary selection filters was the right move. I opted to evolve the PB FL system into a more resilient “big data” approach using this stripped-back filter method.
The simplicity of the selection parameters is key: MTP, Rank, Odds range, and Runners count.
This approach makes the selection method incredibly honest and basic, ensuring consistency.
The live testing over the past weeks has confirmed that the transition from race data to live betting is consistent, tallying correctly against historical performance (allowing for missed days due to occasional Betfair outages).
This version update, with the PB FL + and ++ setup, feels like a complete robust system with no frills or convoluted filters required.
2. Daytime GB - Fixed Liability Course Specific Lay System
As the name suggests, this system focuses solely on meetings that conclude no later than 6 PM, typically between 4 PM and 5 PM. It targets the 4th ranked horse at 1 MTP, according to selected filters, and has been rock solid consistent from data testing to live betting.
This system is titled Daytime GB in the Zip folder, and again split in to MTP and BSP options. Both of these are betting using fixed liability.
This is a low bet volume system that bets almost every day, with only necessary filters included.
We do leverage the new Hedger Pro Prize Money filter for meetings where it impacts the selection process.
Daytime GB Results (1st Jan 2021 – 11th Dec):
P&L (MTP): +629 Points - Very Consistent Profit
MaxDD -3 which aligns with my recent live bet testing residing around -0.5 over the month.
Strike Rate: Consistently High +95%
A/E: High (Over 100%)
This system offers very steady, lower - risk fixed liability laying with a consistently high strike rate.
The past month’s zero MaxDD aligns with my live testing, where any losing bets were usually quickly recouped to keep the overall daily at zero over the rolling month figures.
The high Strike Rate will appeal to many, giving confidence for higher stakes, especially when using the BSP option.
Also, winning more days than losing will feel better than a more adventurous approach looking for more value, as A/E shows we get value longer term, but the average odds are higher than the PB FL + systems for example, and definitely much higher than the PB LTA system shown below.
This system is an excellent option for those prioritizing lower bet volume and less volatility over higher profits but with more volatility.
3. Favourite Backing System
This system targets the favourite horse in a race at 1 MTP, using a very basic set of necessary filters to find only the best opportunities, thereby avoiding any negative backfitting effects.
The consistency of this system when moving from data to live betting surprised me, especially after a week spent developing another backing system that looked promising on paper but showed a real drop-off in live performance.
I funnelled the positive learnings from that experience into this favourite backing system, which has yielded a higher Strike Rate and some very profitable days.
Favourite Backing Results (1st Jan 2021 – 11th Dec):
P&L (MTP): +3855 points (translates to approx. £38,550 over 60 months at £10 stake, or £7,710 per annum average)
Strike Rate: Approx. 40%
Average Odds: Confirmed Consistent
A/E: Strong (Over 100%)
While backing systems involve losing more bets than winning ones overall, the filters adopted target the best opportunities, using a basic set of data, including the new Prize Money at appropriate meetings, to find a consistent pattern of success.
The excellent A/E backs up the consistency and value represented. We have purposefully kept filters to a minimum, led only by what works per course, to avoid backfitting.
4. PB LTA - Lay The Favourite Fixed Profit MTP & Fixed Liability BSP Betting System
This system targets the favourite horse in a race, operating at 1 MTP, and is the only system in the pack that is not course-specific, running across all meetings.
It features a very slimmed-down set of filters, including DSLR (Days Since Last Run), Hour of the Day (12 PM to 6 PM), and a modest Prize Draw.
This is a simple and focused lay betting system included based on its consistency, value, and strong performance from race data to live bet testing.
MTP Fixed Profit Results (1st Jan 2021 – 15th Dec):
P&L (MTP): +290 points (approx. £2,900 at £10 stake, or £580 per annum)
Strike Rate: 56%
Average Odds: 2.18
A/E: Very Strong (Over 100%)
The consistent betting patterns shown in the graph tell me this is a system you can confidently leave to run unattended.
Its simplicity and efficient operation over the first few meetings of the day, specifically eliminating racing that historically has seen more favourites win, is a major strength.
For reference, betting this system at £10 stake from day one would have banked £2900, but there is significant scope to increase stakes and achieve amounts that would be more appealing.
Especially given the nature of the bet targeting the favourite in the race, hence higher bet volume on these horses.
BSP Option: The BSP option must be set at fixed liability.
While this does reduce the overall P&L as you can see above, with a total P&L at +238 points, it is a necessary factor to consider for those wishing to bet very high amounts.
However, with MTP, staking at sensible levels (£50 to £100) should ensure virtually all bets are matched, given the market volume available on the favourited.
BSP remains an option for those who want to ramp up staking further.
Running Everything Concurrently: The Full Picture
Combined Concurrent Results (1st Jan 2021 – 15th Dec):
Total P&L: +6199 points (Average 1239.80 points per annum)
Total MaxDD: -15 points
A/E & SR: Highly appealing
This setup, where all systems place all qualifying bets regardless of overlap (e.g., a back and lay on the same horse), shows the most profit, a very good A/E, and high betting activity.
The systems are all quality assured, having been designed to push out filtering that encourages backfitting and validated with live bet testing.
I have my favourite set up using a selection of these systems with my maximum bank, and they have added value to my portfolio.
I do also run all of these systems at lower stakes daily via another account for test and back up purposes to ensure they are performing as expected, and for member checks.
Risk Acknowledgement
Betting, like all forms of investment, involves risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. You acknowledge and accept that there is a risk of loss and that all funds placed into your Betfair account for the purpose of this service are done so at your own risk. Portfolio Bet & Hedger Pro offers no guarantees on profit.
Choosing Your Setup and Investment
The historical data and live bet testing line up perfectly. You now have several options, for example you could:
Run the PB FL systems alone (choosing + and/or ++).
Combine the Favourite Backing system with Daytime GB.
Combine the non-course specific Lay The Favourite system with one of the two course-specific lay systems.
Run everything concurrently (with or without Hedger Pro’s Kill Opposites feature).
Since all systems fire at 1 MTP, Kill Opposites will function perfectly should you decide to have the back and lay systems running together, although the stats above show total activity without this feature running.
The Portfolio Manager within Hedger Pro is there to help you come to these conclusions and find the right approach that suits your bet style and requirements.
If I was to commence running these systems concurrently, I recommend a minimum 100-point starting bank, which I believe is a comfortable amount considering the MaxDD, but I am prepared to adjust my staking as needed.
You should decide which systems are right for you, as running all may not be your optimal approach for every portfolio and combination of systems you have in operation, or not like the high bet volumes and daily duplicate and opposites colliding.
The stats do factor this in, but living with it is a different story and something for you to consider.
You can import these systems and examine all this data yourself in great detail within Hedger Pro.
⚙️ How to Import Your Systems into Hedger Pro (V1.6)
Before importing, ensure you delete all older, unused systems to make space.
The current version limit is 250 systems in Research/Auto Bet. The 236 micro-systems in this pack count as 236 systems. While the current delete process can be tedious, it will be made much easier in V1.7.
There will also be a system limit lift in Research and a much more refined set up in Portfolio,
For example, the 236 micro systems above could be imported without any deletion required, just a few simple changes, and then within Portfolio the 236 would be classed as three systems. Clever stuff, and all will be explained within my V1.7 news update.
Should you spot anything with the systems that does not look right after importing the systems, please let me know immediately, and I will check to ensure it is not an export error.
Import Process:
In Hedger Pro, go to the Research tab and select New.
Select From Keys in the pop-up box.
Open the text file within the Zip that was sent to you containing the systems, and locate the list of keys you want to import.
In this example I am looking to import the PB FL + and ++ systems from the MTP text file. Which are located in full within the PB FL MTP folder, I can identify them as MTP as they do not have BSP next to their course names.
Do not use Ctrl & A, please highlight all the keys manually by selecting the end of the final key. In this example it’s at the bottom and it’s York ++.
Just at the end of this key text begin highlighting the text as shown below, and then just highlight upwards everything else and let go when done.
Crucially: Manually highlight only the key text, starting at the end of the final key and highlighting upwards. DO NOT highlight any blank space before or after the key text, as this will cause the import to hang.
If you find that’s happening, please try again being careful not to highlight anything more than just the key text.
Copy the highlighted key text.
Return to Hedger Pro and Paste the keys into the From Keys box.
Select Add KEYED SYSTEMS. The systems will import automatically and quickly.
Then select Add KEYED SYSTEMS, and the systems will auto import in to Hedger Pro, and the box will show as Importing.
Once the systems have been imported this box will complete and close automatically.
This should only take a few seconds to finish depending on your PC and internet speed, but it is very quick.
If you see this message for more than a minute, I would guess you will have copied space within the copy and paste process, so please repeat being careful to only copy from the end of the final key text.
If you are still having an import issue and certain this isn’t the issue, please either DM me via Telegram or email Ryan@hedgerpro.co.uk.
Once the systems are imported you will see them within your Research list.
You can then start adding stakes to the systems you are using, and begin building your portfolio.
