Using Tables and Checklists to Plan Rates


1) Why do you need it

Rate and distance for bankroll and volatility.
Fix stop loss/teik profit/limits in advance so as not to take the plan "in place."
Reduce tilt: decisions are made on thresholds, not emotions.

2) File structure (sheets)

Bankroll: daily/weekly limit, share per session.
Session plan: calculation of rates, stops, limits.
Sessions log: facts, bonuses, MDD, triggers.
Slots: RTP versions, volatility, notes on "normal distance to bonus."

3) Risk profiles (choose one and don't jump between them)

Balanced3%40%60%300-500~ 2 ×
Aggressive5%60%80%500-800~ 2-2. 5×

\ "Normal distance" is your average spin interval before the bonus in a particular slot.

4) Session Plan Table: Columns and Formulas

CSV header:
  • ```
  • date,provider,slot,rtp_version,volatility,bankroll,session_pct,session_budget,spins_target,bet_step,bet_calc,stop_loss_pct,stop_loss_amt,take_profit_pct,take_profit_amt,spin_limit,time_limit_min,bonus_patience_spins,empty_streak_stop,buy_bonus_limit,notes
  • ```

Key formulas (Excel/Sheets):
  • `session_budget = bankroll session_pct`
  • `bet_calc = FLOOR(session_budget / spins_target ; bet_step)`
  • * (adjust to the provider rate step) *
  • `stop_loss_amt = session_budget stop_loss_pct`
  • `take_profit_amt = session_budget take_profit_pct`
  • 'time _ limit _ min = spin_limit/ spins_per_min' * (specify'spins _ per _ min ', e.g. 20-40) *
  • `bonus_patience_spins = ROUND(usual_bonus_distance patience_multiplier; 0)`

Threshold margins:
  • 'empty _ streak _ stop '-> 3 × of your average interval between hits.
  • 'buy _ bonus _ limit '- maximum consecutive minus purchases (e.g. 3).

Example string (balanced):
  • ```
  • 2025-08-08,Pragmatic,The Dog House,96. 51,High,1000,0. 03,30,400,0. 20,0. 20,0. 40,12,0. 60,18,500,20,350,12,3,—
  • ```

(1000 bankroll → 30 standard session; 400 spins → bet 0. 20; SL = 12, TP = 18, 500 spin/20 min timer limit, 350 spin "patience to bonus.")

5) Checklists (print/hold side by side)

A) Before the start (1 minute)

The slot and RTP version are confirmed (take the maximum available).
Risk profile selected: cons/sbal/agr.
Заполнены: `session_budget`, `bet_calc`, `stop_loss_amt`, `take_profit_amt`.
Лимиты: `spin_limit`, `time_limit_min`, `bonus_patience_spins`, `empty_streak_stop`, `buy_bonus_limit`.
Timer started; autospin/turbo - only if it doesn't break discipline.

B) During the session

Marked each bonus (back number, ×).
I fix the balance peak and drawdown (MDD).
Any trigger was triggered (SL/spin/time limit/empty batches/buy-limit/tilt) → stop without conditions.
No dogon bet.

C) After session (2 minutes)

Total: sales volume, payments, 'RTP _ real', 'ROI', 'MDD'.
Noted: which triggers were triggered/violated.
Solution: repeat slot/pause/eliminate for a week.

6) "Session sheet" per screen (skeleton)

Slot/Provider/RTP : \_\_\_\_\_\_\\_\\_
Profile: Cons/Sbal/Agr
Bankroll :\_\\\_\_\\_Session :\_\_\_\\\_
Bet :\_\\_\_\\\_Target spins :\_\_\\_\\_
SL: \_\_\_\_\_\_ (%)TP: \_\_\_\_\_\_ (%)
Limits :\_\\\_\_\\_ spin\_\\_\\_\\_ min
"No bonus - I go out after" :\_\_\_\_\\_ spins
Empty series - stop :\_\_\_\_\\_
Buy-bonus limit :\_\_\_\_\\_
Tilt Triggers (Tick): Accelerate/Get Angry/Bid Up → STOP

7) Mini-log "along the way"

CSV header:
  • ```
  • spin_no,event,type,value_x,balance,peak_balance,low_balance,comment
  • ```

Examples of events are 'hit', 'bonus _ start', 'bonus _ end', 'empty _ streak = 12', 'stop _ trigger = SL'.

8) Frequent errors in rate planning

Bet step ignore → real bet did not match plan → broken 'spins _ target'.
Changing the risk profile "within" the session.
SL/TP movement after start.
No 'time _ limit _ min' in turbo mode → turnover flies away.
"Patience until bonus" without binding to the slot (put a multiple of your empirical).

9) Fast volatility rates (for hint field)

Low: 150-250 spins per session; SL 20–25%; TP 40%; "patience" ~ 1. 5×.
Average: 250-400; SL 30–40%; TP 60%; "patience" ~ 2 ×.
High: 400-800; SL 50–60%; TP 60–80%; "patience" ~ 2-2. 5×.

10) Tempo control and trail stop formulas

Tempo (minutes): 'time _ limit _ min = spin_limit/ spins_per_min'.
Trailing stop from peak: 'dynamic _ sl = MAX (stop_loss_amt; peak_profit trailing_pct)`
* (usually 'trailing _ pct = 0. 2–0. 3 'from the achieved profit). *

11) About "bonus buy" in planning

Read the prices in the × rate.
'buy _ bonus _ limit = 2-3'negative in a row - stop.
After a major drift (≥200 -300 ×) - exit or forced pause.

Result

The table sets the rate, distance and stop rules, checklists - behavior. Fix one risk profile, count bet from distance, fix SL/TP/limits to start. Any trigger worked - stop. Regular "post-session" analysis keeps discipline and saves bankroll.
