Type of Teams & Performance Cycles (Bears & Bulls)

Throughout a regular scheduled season, every team goes through winning and losing streaks and finding when to bet on a team is called finding the right “Performance Cycle”.

Just like the stock market, I’ve come up with the following betting terms and cycles. The Raymond Report Value Index (VI) is based on the current market psychology of the betting public, based on a teams 7-game cycle.

Types of Teams – When you look at League Standings, you have 3 types of teams:

Tier 1 Teams (A): 60% or higher (Above Average Teams = High Public Confidence = Low Rewards)
Tier 2 Teams (B): 50% to 59.9% (Average Teams = Moderate Public Confidence = Medium Rewards)
Tier 3 Teams (C): 49.9% or Lower (Below Average Teams = Low Public Confidence = High Rewards)

Type of Performance Cycles- Current market psychology of the betting public, based on a teams 3 & 7-game cycle.

(NFL – CFB & CFL)

BULLISH = Team is either (3-0) in their last 3 games.
NEUTRAL = Team is either (1-2 or 2-1) in their last 3 games.
BEARISH = Team is either (0-3) in their last 3 games.

(MLB – NHL & NBA)

BULLISH = Team is either (7-0, 6-1, or 5-2) in their last 7 games.
NEUTRAL = Team is either (3-4 or 4-3) in their last 7 games.
BEARISH = Team is either (0-7, 1-6 or 2-5) in their last 7 games.

*Tip: I never bet on teams who are going through a “Bearish” cycle.

Ron’s Money Management Chart

Using Ron’s money management chart below, once you’ve decided on a team to wager on, use the following formula to determine the amounts of units to bet on that game.

Formula: Type of Team + Home/Away + Cycle = Bet Unit

Example: Columbus Blue Jackets (B Type Team) at (Home) in a (Neutral Cycle) would result in a 4 unit wager.
