Up X Down Y Staking Plan
The Up X Down Y Staking Plan is a sequence-based strategy that adjusts stakes based on betting outcomes. Instead of having a fixed sequence of numbers, we have a fixed percentage to decide what happens after a win or a loss.
Key Components:
Starting Bank and Initial Stake: The plan begins with a defined bankroll and an initial stake calculated as a percentage of this bank. For example, with a £100 starting bank and an initial stake set at 2%, the first bet would be £2.
Stake Adjustment After Outcomes:
- After a Loss: The stake increases by a predetermined percentage of the initial stake. For instance, if the increment is set at 50% of a £0.50 point, the stake would rise by £0.25 following a loss.
- After a Win: Instead of increasing as with a loss, the stake decreases.
Reset Limit: This parameter defines the maximum stake threshold. Upon reaching this limit, the sequence resets to the initial stake. For example, if 1 Point is set to be £0.50 and the reset limit is 2 points then the reset limit is (£1). If the stake exceeds this amount, it reverts to the starting value.
Operational Example:
- Initial Bet: £0.50
- First Loss: Stake increases by £0.25 (50% of £0.50), resulting in a £0.75 stake for the next bet.
- Subsequent Win: Stake decreases by same amount as above. 1 Point is the Minimum Stake used.
This pattern continues, with stakes adjusting based on the outcomes and resetting upon reaching the specified limit.
Advanced Features:
-
Daily Stake Adjustment: Instead of modifying stakes after each bet, adjustments can occur at the end of each betting day. By enabling the ‘Treat Each Day as a Single Bet’ option and using the <LB> (Last Bet) code in the selection column, the system recalculates the stake based on the day’s overall result.
-
Linking Points to Cumulative Bank: Aligning the point value with the cumulative bank balance allows stakes to scale with the bankroll’s size, potentially safeguarding funds during downturns and capitalizing on profitable periods. However, this approach can lead to significant losses if stakes escalate excessively.
-
Integer Calculation Option: This setting rounds the point calculation to the nearest whole number, simplifying stake adjustments. For example, with a series reset at £222.22 and an initial bet percentage of 1%, one point would be calculated as £2.22, which rounds to £2 when using integers.
Cautionary Note:
The default reset limit is set to 1000, effectively allowing stakes to increase indefinitely without a cap. It’s crucial to set a realistic reset limit to prevent stakes from growing uncontrollably, which could jeopardize the betting bank.
By comprehending and customizing these parameters, bettors can effectively implement the Up X Down Y Staking Plan to enhance their betting strategy.
