Missing the footy

I decided to have a go at some trading today... one thing I've learnt about trading is that you need to get in and out as quickly as you can. Don't be gready, it's all about making small profits. Do you think I do that? lol. I get gready, don't know when to call it quits and guess what? Game goes against me and I lose some money.

So guess what I've decided to do. From Monday (11/10/10) I'll be depositing £1000 into the exchanges, most probabll Betfair and I'll trade my way over the course of 90 days up to whatever or trade my way down to £0. One thing I've discovered about myself is that I certainly work better under pressure, so from Monday for the next 90 days (assuming I don't lose the £1000 quickly) you'll all be getting a bonus trading experience.

Here are today's results:

I really do feel for On The Oche, yet again we were done by someone bottling it. Each Way Value had 6 selections and two of those finished in fourth I believe with one placed and the others losers.

Going back to trading there were several occasions when all I had to do was lay the bets and green up for a nice profit. But this was another lesson and practice makes perfect. I only hope it doesn't take £1000 for practice to become perfect. My aim is for about £50 per football game I'm playing.

Until tomorrow
