Legal Insider Bot Review Greg Marks

January 29, 2015 General Reviews, Trading No comments

Created by Greg Marks, allegedly a Hedge Fund Manager, Legal Insider Bot is a piece of binary options trading software that comes with some rather incredible claims.

What is the product?

Whilst it has been a while since I’ve looked at a binary options trading bot, I’m not that surprised to find that nothing has really changed. All of the usual claims are made with Greg Marks in the case of Legal Insider Bot using a claimed 100% successful trading rate as his selling point. This is allegedly achieved though exploiting a trick that Greg Marks knows allows him to see what banks are going to do ahead of time. There is unfortunately and not surprisingly no evidence to back this rather bold claim up outside of a ticker at the bottom of the page that shows “successful trades” in real time (something that I don’t believe at all). The other angle that Legal Insider Bot uses is a claim that all trades are fully insured through a unique policy that Greg Marks has negotiated with a number of different binary brokers. This policy covers any losses to your initial deposit only in the first 7 days although this is only mentioned in the small print. On top of what you make through your trading, Legal Insider Bot also holds frequent competitions for top traders with prizes of up to $10,000. Read more

The Perm Firm Review Stark Investors

January 28, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Offered as part of the Stark Investors stable of tipsters, The Perm Firm is a sports betting service that offers users selections for perm bets that are designed to maximise profit.

What is the product?

The Perm Firm is a football betting service that typically provide selections on a weekly basis (typically in the morning and directly to your email address) although this can be more. The tips that are sent out are all designed to be used for perm betting which is a specific method of spreading your bets in order to maximise profits. With The Perm Firm you will be sent a number of games that are due to be played over a period of a few days. You then back combinations of doubles, trebles and even accumulators in various combinations meaning that you should have a number of winners per perm bet which should also be at pretty good odds. Because of this you are not reliant on all bets to win in order to produce profit. Based purely off bets being profitable, The Perm Firm had a strike rate of 57.69% between May and December of 2014 with only 39 bets in 92 not profiting. The selection process for The Perm Firm isn’t really discussed by Stark Investors however they do say that they have a team of perm betting experts whose knowledge, research and experience are “of the highest calibre”.

Betting With the Best Review Betfan

January 27, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by a tipster known only as Dave, Betting With the Best is a horse racing tipster service provided under the Betfan umbrella of services.

What is the product?

Betting With the Best is a horse racing tipster service that draws on two different aspects to find its selections. Creator Dave claims that all his tips come through a combination of his network of informants as well as a unique (and not surprisingly, secret) betting system that come together to produce “winner after winner after winner”. Naturally, this isn’t explored any more than these claims which is disappointing. In terms of the numbers behind Betting With the Best, they’re not exactly the best which only highlights the need to understand the selection process. Betting With the Best has attained a strike rate of a little over 23% per month which with stakes going as high as 5 points per race is definitely a cause for concern. Bets are sent out pretty much on a daily basis (there are a few days where Dave hasn’t sent out selections). These bets are on a massive variety of odds with bets being placed backing win bets, doubles and each ways. Read more

1 Pound Punt Review Harold Schmitt

January 26, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Harold Schmitt, 1 Pound Punt is an independent horse racing tipster service that provides subscribers with selections on long odd bets that allegedly maximise profits.

What is the product?

1 Pound Punt is a new tipster service operated by one Harold Schmitt that claims to be able to turn huge profits simply through £1 level stake betting. This is mostly achieved through a number of long odd bets that can range from doubles and trebles moving up to Trixies (3 doubles and a treble), Yankees (6 doubles, 4 trebles and a fourfold accumulator) and on one occasion, a Super Yankee or Canadian (a bet comprised of 26 bets made up of 10 doubles, 10 trebles, 5 fourfold accumulators and a fivefold accumulator). Unfortunately there is no information forthcoming on how the horses for these bets are selected. This makes 1 Pound Punt a low strike rate system with the statistics currently showing 16.6% so far for January. Unfortunately there is no proofing for 2014 to draw a better idea of what to expect. In terms of the service, selections aren’t a daily thing which is to be expected given the nature of 1 Pound Punt although when selections are available Harold Schmitt typically sends them out before midday. As is clear from the name, 1 Pound Punt uses a simple staking of £1 per bet with the biggest potential outlay on a given day being £26. Read more

Tevin Rynard Racing Review Tipster Street

January 25, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Tevin Rynard and marketed through Tipster Street, Tevin Rynard Racing is an email based horse racing tipster service.

What is the product?

Tevin Rynard Racing is a horse racing tipster service that specialises in providing value bets for smaller field races. Despite this restriction of sorts, Tevin Rynard Racing covers all weather, flat, chase and hurdle races. Selections are sent out via email seven days a week, typically before 11am with an average monthly output of around 40 selections. Stakes are advised as 1 or 2 point bets on odds that range from 1.5 to 25+. The selections process for Tevin Rynard Racing is not discussed by Tevin Rynard which is rather disappointing however this is unfortunately commonplace with tipsters. Based off the fact that Tevin Rynard operates in a relatively small field, it seems likely that he has developed a highly specialised understanding. Whatever the technique, Tevin Rynard Racing has achieved a highly respectable average strike rate of 44.5%. Read more

Value Horse Service Review Alan Smith

January 25, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Alan Smith, Value Horse Service is a new, independent tipster service that provides subscribers with daily selections via email.

What is the product?

Value Horse Service is a tipster service that specialises in providing lay betting advice to subscribers. As mentioned these are sent out daily with bets covering laying win and place bets. Alan Smith says that the odds for bets that Value Horse Service advises will never exceed 10 points and that the average odds come in at 5.1 for win lays and 2.4 for place lays. Whilst the selection process isn’t detailed, Alan Smith does discuss how prior to Value Horse Service , he did make a living using the same methods before having to give it up. The proofing that is available is rather limited as Value Horse Service has only been operational since late November although this hasn’t stopped it from showing a lot of promise in terms of strike rate and returns.

Bet on the Winner Review Charlie Blackman

January 23, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Charlie Blackman, Bet on the Winner is a horse racing tipster service that makes selections based off horses that he believes have been undervalued by bookies.

What is the product?

Bet on the Winner is a tipster service that specialises in providing win bets for Irish and UK races. The selections come courtesy of creator Charlie Blackman however the selection process is unfortunately never really explored. The closest that we come is a claim by Charlie Blackman that he is an ex equities trader and that he draws on this alleged experience to identify value and timing. In terms of the “facts” of Bet on the Winner, Charlie Blackman says that you can expect between 50 and 60 selections per month although these are not necessarily sent out daily. The average odds for these bets are said to range from 5/1 all the way to 8/1 with a strike rate that is simply advertised as over 25% There isn’t a more precise figure available and a lack of proofing makes this impossible to calculate (whilst also providing an additional worry). One of the things that does work to your advantage with Bet on the Winner however is a level stakes system. Read more

Stableline Gold Review Simon Holden and Betfan

January 22, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Simon Holden and offered as a part of the Betfan stable of tipsters, Stableline Gold is a horse racing service that was Betfan’s 3rd most profitable for 2014.

What is the product?

Stableline Gold is a pretty long standing tipster service (since late 2012) that last year was one of Betfan’s best performing service. With that in mind I expected Stableline Gold to deliver an exceptional service. Creator Simon Holden says that his service is built around an extensive contact network that involves people “in the centre of each training centre” with top trainers in distinguished locations like Lambourn, Newmarket and Epsom, all of whom report directly to him, a claim that I am naturally sceptical of, namely due to a lack of substantial evidence. The statistics for Stableline Gold are slightly more promising initially with a strike rate of 30.09% for January which I would probably call above average. Selections are not a daily thing with Stableline Gold which is not a bad thing when you look at the staking system which involves level stakes of 10 points each, an amount that I found to be worryingly high.

SV-60 Review Jim Hunt and marketed by Streetwise Publications

January 21, 2015 General Reviews, Trading 2 comments

Created by Jim Hunt and marketed by Streetwise Publications, SV-60 is advertised as a top secret trading formula that is claimed to have a 100% win rate on trades.

What is the product?

SV-60 is a product that shows you how to use creator Jim Hunt’s special formula to become a successful market trader. Spread over 10 DVD’s Jim Hunt uses SV-60 to show you how he successfully made 21 winning trades in 45 days. The actual details surrounding SV-60 are scarce to say the least and most of the copy is instead dedicated to a number of claims that are dubious at best. What is stated about SV-60 is that it has been back tested over 3 years (where it allegedly maintained a 100% win rate with no cherry picking data). Jim Hunt also says that SV-60 is able to work in any market conditions, even going as far as to ask how it can perform when they are stable as opposed to the tumultuous conditions that he has back tested it in and currently exist. Interestingly, the formula for SV-60 is actually in the title which should present itself as (S x V) – 60, something that I don’t personally see as being applicable to trading. The final thing that Jim Hunt has to say on SV-60 is that everything is based off information relayed to him through “The Formula Project” in which users sent him data and information on their trading and what did and didn’t work.
