How to use your P&L analysis information

BUT! This spreadsheet isn’t just about keeping a record of your trading using tables and graphs. It’s been developed over several years to help with becoming a more profitable and consistent trader.  I wanted to find out how to have less risk, less stress, less wasted time and more profit.

Of course you need to adapt your trading according to what you find out and the spreadsheet does not give betting advice.  There’s a saying I really believe in which states, “If you keep doing what you've been doing you'll keep getting what you've been getting”.  Only about 5% of Betfair customers make a long-term profit and that’s mostly very small.  If you can take responsibility and own the fact that the results you see are because of the actions you’ve chosen to take, it means that you are in control.  Find what aspects of your trading are working and hammer them hard!  Reign back the stuff that’s increasing your losses.  Simple, eh?!, so how come most people aren’t doing it?  

How does it work?

Download your Betfair 'BettingPandL' file or Betdaq P&L file then simply click 'Import'.  Simples!

New conversion spreadsheet allows you to import the Betfair Customer Report / Statement with your entire lifetime Betfair exchange P&L results (i.e. more than 3 months worth of data).  This is to get around the 3-month limit Betfair has for the standard P&L download.  See this post for more info.

General

• Keep your P&L results private - NO uploading your results to someone else's website
• Fully compatible with Betfair altered file format of 'BettingPandL' (changed in summer 2020)
• OneDrive: Keep your data backed up in your OneDrive, now supported in v3

Betdaq P&L

• Horse racing markets automatically separated from other sports (where Betdaq state the racecourse in the P&L file)
• Horse racing summaries by win, place and each-way market results
• Racecourse totals (where available)

‘Betfair Customer Report’ conversion spreadsheet available for download

Note: This post is about an optional add-on spreadsheet for the Results Summary Spreadsheet.

Note: This post is only relevant to purchasers of Results Summary Spreadsheet with betfair accounts more than 3 months old and who want access to all of their historic betting data (maybe years or decades worth).

There’s a problem…..and a solution!

Problem

Whilst Betfair offer up to 3 months of betting Profit and Loss data download from "My Account" area on their website as a file called 'BettingPandL', if you require any more than that then you need to contact their helpdesk.  They will provide a report of the entire betting results on your account since opening, if you ask nicely!  However, their report format is different to 'BettingPandL' and has also recently changed.

I’ve had a number of purchasers of the Results Summary Spreadsheet recently contact me with news that Betfair will no longer provide their customers with the lifetime P&L report in the original format.  Betfair support have stated to a number of customers that it is not possible for them to provide the old format report anymore, after many years of doing so.

The new format report that Betfair provide, titled “Betfair Customer Report” (or "Statement") looks like this:

Betfair Customer Statement (identifying information has been removed)

This has two fundamental problems compared to the old lifetime P&L report report:

1. Each row is an individual bet result, before commission is deducted.  The original report had the total P&L net of commission on each row for every market (e.g. horse race, football match odds).

2. The sport name isn’t stated.  This is a big omission that is needed for the Results Summary Spreadsheet to help you understand your P&L by sport. Adding in the sport name manually is problematic as most customers using this will have several thousand bets on their account!

Solution

Convert Betfair Customer Report - showing unfiltered results with 98% of sports auto-identified and the remainder highlighted

I’ve created a new spreadsheet called, “Convert Betfair Customer Report” {snappy, heh?!}.  This largely solves the problems created by Betfair’s new report format:

1. The new conversion spreadsheet sums up the exchange bets and deducts the commission to provide the net of commission P&L for each market, as per the original format report.
2. The new conversion spreadsheet analyses the bet data and can automatically identify and enter the sport for the vast majority of bets so you will save potentially hours or days of time.

• This varies by sport – for horse racing and greyhound racing it will add in the sport for virtually all records.  It will also identify football bets for all non-international games involving English teams and most European teams.  Other identifiers are used, e.g. goals, frame, and leg for football, snooker and darts.
• The remainder needs to be manually entered by you but this should only take 5-20 minutes depending on your data and variety of bets.  The spreadsheet is set-up to make this data-entry easier.  It also identifies bets of team vs team or player vs player which helps narrow it down for you.

Results cannot be guaranteed, however what we’ve experienced so far has been as high as 98% of all markets auto-identified with the lowest score still being a whopping 92%!  Results will depend on how many different sports you’ve bet on and how obscure they are.  Even so, if you’ve only bet on the horses and volleyball then any bets not identified are likely to be volleyball and after a quick check you can copy them down in one go.  Simples!

The results can then be exported with a click and imported into the Results Summary Spreadsheet in one go (Results Summary Spreadsheet is available separately here).

Benefits of analysing your P&L easily with Results Summary Spreadsheet

'Horse Racing' tab in the Results Summary Spreadsheet (v3)

Many thanks to all the current purchasers of the Results Summary spreadsheet!  It would be great to hear more from traders and gamblers who've used it to improve their profits.

For me, I was haemorrhaging money on flat races (in-play trading) which I wasn't aware of - a classic gambler's case of remembering the big wins and forgetting all the losers! Because I was only looking at the overall P&L things looked good.  I also had a major "leak" on maiden hurdles at certain courses (in-play trading). Both these problems were very easy to see once I developed this functionality in the spreadsheet - at the press of a button your horse racing P&L is split between flat and jumps, you can then see splits by racecourse, distance, race type, date and you can also filter all of these.  For example, you could see all the maiden hurdle races split by racecourse, or distance, sorted by profitability.  The flexibility is really great and enables you to see what's really going on.

New 'filter by sport' control on 'Total by Sport' tab (Results Summary Spreadsheet v3.3.4)

There's a major update to the 'Total by Sport' tab which includes:

• 'Filter by Sport' control which controls all three tables
• Select one or several sports
• Exclude one or several sports
• All sports
• New third table showing market type information by sport
• New 'expand' button and 'Toggle sort column' button to sort the table either by profitability or alphabetically by market type
• This tab is now similar to the 'My Sport' tab but can be switched to a different sport with a single click.  The 'My Sport' tab is intended for your favourite other sport that you want setup more permanently for review. 
• The chart previously on this tab has been moved to the 'Graphs' tab

'Football' selected on the new 'Filter by Sport' control

The latest version released today (v3.3.5) added a daily market count on the central table of the 'Summary' tab and this is also shown graphically on the 'Graphs' tab.  Check out the updated screenshot here.

Previous purchasers of v3 of the spreadsheet have already been emailed with their free update details.
