Q1) I saw you did a back to tracking. How do you decide to do this?
One thing that I also do different is restart the progression after a hit. Why? I been to burned by the progression before and a small loss is nothing with this kind of play. You win that back easy on next session...

A1) I do this when Repeats are expected and after 3 losses in a row after the betting entry point.
Regarding resetting the Progression to 1:
The only time I reset my progression to 1 is on a new high and even then this is open to change because if, for example, I am at a new high of +20 and a progression level of 4 and there are still 6 more Single Repeats to come in the next 9 spins I would never reset the progression level back to 1 because it would take so much longer to hit the Win/Stop level. You have to consider what your bet is.
In the example, at a new high of +20 if my bet was 9 and the Progression is 4 the profit would be (4*36)-(4*9) or +108. This added to the new high of 20 would give me +128 and the Win/Stop is reached and I quit. If, on the other hand, I reset the progression back to 1, as you said you would, the new profit would only be (1*36)-(1*9) or +27. Now our new high would only be (20+27)= +47 and we would still be betting to hit the Win/Stop level.
All of these factors have to be taken into consideration when you make a decision.
As I said before when you make a decision you have to know not only what you are doing but why you are doing it, based on everything that is happening at the time.
And, how many times has Winkel said "if in doubt DO NOT BET"?
I hope this helps.
