Can a stupid person be a smart-ass?

Horse Racing: £63.39  Total P&L:  £63.39

Decent enough day. Could have gone better though as i managed to make £94.91 in just one race but stupidly lost £70 of it in the next race as i stupidly didn't apply my stop loss (of 2 ticks). Still was happy to make a good profit for the day.
Traded only one of the Wolverhampton races tonight and managed to lose £10. So i just stopped straight away because i wasn't fully into it.

Off to have a roast dinner at 9pm at night! Oh my Gran would be fuming!

New Bank = £315


P.s. Think I'm going to start using some funny lines as my title, as i really can't think of any informative one's so may as well get a cheap laugh!

Decent results

Horse Racing: £49.43  Total P&L:  £49.43


Not to bad today. Didn't trade all of today just from 2pm till 3:30pm. Thought i would just monitor the rest as i had a wee bit of a headache.
So was all good, but i did think the markets seemed a bit up and down today for me personally. 
Anyway just off out again, pre drinks at a mate's house. Not again!!
New Bank: £246 plus a few pennies!


Chin chin!

Peux-tu parle anglais?

Just a quick one! Just got in from the town, head is starting to hang already!
Made a loss of £18.81 today! First loss in awhile but i will just have to take it on the chin. I won quite a bit though last night on the poker so i actually managed to just make a small loss of £2 overall. So my total P&L is now sitting at £196.60. So still not to shabby.

Anywho off to bed rather intoxicated so going to try flush it out of my system! £200 on black anyone? I ain't that drunk!

Huge banker

Was the start of freshers week last night, quite the messy one!

Decided i needed a boost in the finances, so i withdrew £350 of my bank. This left me with £50 two days ago. So i basically started again, but i think having done this has gave a boost to my trading as it has made me re-enforce my rules and has also made me become more patient. Also I've noticed another area of improvement of my trading. I am starting to read graphs better 10 minutes or so before the off and 8 times out of 10 today i have put this into practice.

Over the past two days of trading i have made a profit of £148.60. 

Sunday: £45.32

Monday: £103.28

My bank now stands at a healthy £198.60. I am going to again withdraw £100 as i need the money if I'm honest. When i have a healthy bank account i will definitely be compounding my bank but right now i can't take the chance of losing 100% of my bank, even though the risk is very small if i stick to my rules but i still don't want to take this risk.

So from now on when writing a post, i will have a P&L for the day and then my bank will represent how much profit i have made overall. So starting of now my bank is £198.60.

Today's trading was all gravy. Traded 19 markets today. 14 out of the 19 being profitable. My losses today amounted to £40.83. I had two big losses of £19.29 and £16.70. But i was happy to just take these losses and move on to the next market, this would have been a big falling point for me a few weeks ago as i would have most likely tried to chase these losses, and probably ended up losing more.

Anywho am off to make some grub as im starving!

Hope everyone's trading is going the right way!

New Leap!

Today's P&L: £133.69
Bank: £357.48

The numbers just sum up my day. Was crazy, just felt like i was in the matrix! Every trade i made went the right way and if it didn't i scratched it so there was no damage done.
I made a total of 15 trades today. Only two of them were losses, but both losses only amounted to £3.42 so was more than happy to take it. My biggest single trade today was for £22.42.
I won around £7 last night on a short poker game so that equates for the rest of my profits from my previous post.
I started off this morning differently. I got up a bit earlier than usual and got a few bits and bobs done, so i didn't have other things running around my head whilst trading. Looking back on it today, i was in a much more relaxed mood and wasn't being greedy what so ever. In some races i felt that i could get more out of them, but i just convinced myself to stop and grab a quick drink of water and go analyse the next race. By doing this i had plenty of time to assess each market and pick my strategy before the 5 minutes left till the race mark. (The time in which i prefer to trade) by doing this i found myself in and out of the market with at least 1-2 mins to spare.
If i can keep anywhere near this mark up i will be on a roll. I'm not going to get cocksure of myself as i don't want to chance any stupid unnecessary losses.

On a side note, i went to see Dara O'Briain today in the Hammersmith Apollo. The guy is a fecking genius! I truly recommend going to see him if you have the chance.
P.s. The new Fifa is completely different to the old one!

Not sure if i will have much time to trade tomorrow as i am off down to my girlfriends mum's house as it's her birthday, but i may just try sneak a few in! Also i'm in a poker tournament tomorrow night to possibly win a share of $65,000. So things are looking decent.
Another quick note: i'm on the fence as to whether i should withdraw some of my winnings just incase, would like to hear any suggestions.

Ciao

All good in the hood!

Today's P&L: £33.86

Bank: £216.38

First of all....Arsenal! Just wow. Fabregas, Vela, Arshavin, Wilshere...list goes on a fair bit. (Still have a dislike to Eboue, think he slows the play down a bit)

Was all settled and ready for a days trading today, when i got a call at just before 2pm from my mates saying they were going into town. So i decided to go instead, which turned out to be for a couple of hours. Before i went thought i had a cheeky few bets for the day instead and guess what...they all came in! Every single one of them i was shocked when i got back. They weren't for crazy stakes just £2's and £4's, but was well chuffed! I just chose my selections from reviewing timeform. On a few of the bets i did put in lays at lower odds around the 1.9 mark, just encase. So managed to make a £12.31 profit just from a small few bets.

Set up a quick strategy for the footy games. Just decided to trade on the Chelsea and Arsenal games. Was trying to get out of my trades as soon as possible as i just wanted to watch the Arsenal game to be honest. Decided to back 2-0 and 3-0 for both games and also had a cover bet on the Chelsea game as i backed Zilina to win, just encase they scored first. I didn't have a cover back bet on Braga as i watched the first 5 minutes and saw Arsenal were dominating it. If needed though i was ready to put a back bet in for Braga to win. Thankfully didn't have to, thanks to a stupid penalty give away from Braga (could see it coming after the first few challenges). Fabregas didn't disappoint and slotted it home and thankfully Chelsea scored an early goal to on the 13 minute. So was happy as larry to trade out after this on both CS markets for a greened up profit of £9.09 on the Arsenal game and £12.46 on the Chelsea game. Was happy to take both profits and for once didn't feel the need to be greedy just in case i lost it all!

So was a happy easy trade on the footy today. If anyone is reading this, i would love to know what strategies you employed? Hopefully i will be able to post my strategy before every major game and then will be able to discuss what went right/wrong.

Other than that, had a football game today as well at 5pm. Was a bit random as i only got asked to play 20mins before hand but was happy to dust off the boot's. Normally play Right wing but they were short so i went up top (all 5ft 8inches of me) banged one in though so was hunky dory. Won 3-0.

Found this decent sight for free betting tips as well http://www.online-betting-guide.co.uk/ pretty decent for the horse races. People post their selections and sometimes explain why. Good to get every angle in. Helps with trading as well sometimes to have a look and see which horses are getting well backed/layed.

Right that's about it, just sitting waiting here for the new Fifa 11 demo to download. Taking forever! So may see if there are any cheap poker tournaments open.

Till tomorrow 

KO'D

Quick update

Just a quick one before i start trading for today.
Fancied a bit of poker last night so i bought in to a cash table for $50 (.25c/50c blinds).
Managed to double up after 10mins and just left the table after my double up.
