7 out of 8 ain't bad

I traded 8 games last night and made a profit on 7 of them for an overall profit of £18.40. Three of the games I actually only dipped into at the start and one a Brazilian 2nd Division game I had taken a small £2 profit before it kicked off and didn't touch it after that.

Overall my strategy and concentration last night was actually pretty good. When I wanted to do something else I closed my position before leaving the screen, so maybe I learned from the expensive cup of coffee I had on Saturday where 2 goals were scored while I was filling the caffetiere!!!!

An Improvement

Well after my disasterous Thursday night and wasted Friday afternoon I was feeling a little bit down and haven't spent to much time trading just dropped in and out a couple of times and somehow managed to make a profit of over forty quid.

Not sure what to make of this I think it may point back to my previous concerns about my concentration levels and this may indicate a need to look spending short periods of trading followed by a break away from the screen.

My new success today was Biathlon, as a former resident of Scandinavia I got to like watching this sport and watching the world championships I laid a number of racers as they dropped in price and happily watched them miss a few targets on the range. Might give this another go tomorrow as the market was reasonably liquid and the betting patterns surprising.

NBA on the All Star Break so an early night tonight.
