no trading yesterday simply too busy doing other things but today i got stuck into it and had just about my best day ever with this software...it was really flying.

i also done some will hill free bets and had a nice win on the slots so a very happy day all round !.

profit £27.82.

cumulative profit £43.30.

a nice profit for the day, i was going to do some football trading but never got around to it.

not much else to say at the moment so i will leave it at that.

profit £15.48.

cumulative profit £15.48.

no trading again for today the telly went on the blink and i spent a few hours waiting for the engineer to come so another day wasted.

it gave me some time to think some more about my trading , i was approaching the £200 bank mark but only using £5-£10 liability stakes on all my trades so having that amount of money sitting there in betfair really made no sense so i have decided to withdraw my profits and leave just £50. as my trading bank and now i will withdraw any profits i make at the end of the day.

no update and no trades for today have been very busy doing other things, but i will get stuck into the racing tomorrow.

after having a day off yesterday i decided to get stuck into some trading and last night i stayed up to the small hours trading three 02 tennis matches and ended up with a small loss, it really was not worth the time and effort i put in so will not be staying up tonight for it...no way !.

i had one successful greyhound trade and some very good luck on the horse racing, as can be seen above i made a nice amount on one race , what happened was i thought i had covered all the horses before the start but realised towards the end of the race i had missed a horse and the software had flagged this horse as a possible winner so i put in a lay bet hoping to put a back in a few ticks higher for 0 on this horse, as my back bet went in something happen and the odds went out to the 30s which i was matched at then the horse bolted to the front at which point i put another lay in at low odds to spread my profit and the horse went on and won the race !.

so i had a bit of luck there which boosted my profits for the day.

this evening i had a small football trade which went wrong and took a small loss on it.

so overall i good day with a bit of luck thrown in, my bank has been boosted nicely and i have decided that when my bank reaches the £200. mark i will revert to £10 liability stakes again on the horse racing as any loss will not have much of an impact on my bank.

profit £ 36.24.

bank £ 179.05.

the greyhounds let me down today with a loss, its a shame because it was my first greyhound trade since last week ...oh well the damage was not too bad and i spent the afternoon on a loss recovery mission with the horse racing and i actually ended with a small profit which was great.

i hope to write some interesting blog pieces soon instead of just giving my p/l every day, makes things more interesting... trouble is finding the time to do it !.

there will be no blog update tomorrow as i have some important business to attend to so no trading.

profit £4.39.

bank £144.40.

it late and bedtime so just a quick update, the software advised today that there were many poor races and so i traded just a few but all were profitable and i made a small profit for the day.

anyway it all goes into the pot and will build up slowly over time.

profit £6.41.

bank £140.

despite some of today's horse racing being called off because of the weather on the two remaining races i still managed to pull in a fantastic profit and i had a couple of trades on the football and all i had to show for my efforts was a tiny green profit still at least it was not red !.

in the past week i have more than doubled my starting bank..... how many traders can say that ! i know it was a small bank to start off with but it sounds good (smile).

profit £18.25.

bank £133.59.

today the software i use for the horse races was on fire with just one losing bet the rest win after win and though i was using just £5.00. liability stakes it all mounted up for a very nice profit considering the small size of my bank.

the one drawback was a loss on the football but still i was very pleased with the horse racing.

the software was spot on today telling me what horse to back/lay and what races to bet on or leave alone, it really does take the hard work out of trading the gee gees !! .

profit £24.99.

bank £115.29.

surprise surprise betfair goes down yet again this afternoon , after the recent 10 hour shutdown during Tuesday night i was half expecting something like this to happen it always does when betfair does some "upgrades" i wonder how many people lost money this time around ?...betfair really are useless and i can see why many people have gone over to betdaq, for me though even though i too have a betdaq account at the moment i am using software that only works on betfair so i have to stay with them but in the morning i will be contacting the owners of the software inquiring if they intend a betdaq version in the near future.... i damn well hope so !!.

even though this afternoon was a washout i did manage to trade some later races at Wolverhampton and made a small profit to end the day with....not much but it all helps.

profit £4.70.

bank £90.30.

its late so i will be quick with my daily update, traded the greyhounds and horses and made a nice profit and as you can see above i had a go at the us horse racing, i was using a bit of ratings software which gave me a good idea of which horse to lay i may do this a couple of times every evening to add to my profits of the day.

tomorrow i may reduce my betting stakes to the £5-6. level as with reflection my betting stakes at the moment may be a bit too high.

protect your bank is the name of the game with trading !.

profit. £11.40.

bank. £85.60.

today was a hard slog on the horses and i was lucky to end it with a tiny profit and not a loss, tonight i traded the football and had more success with these markets.

the small profit for the day reflects the small stakes i have been using to trade with along with my small bank and the need to protect my bank.

i also had a go at the darts markets with a small stake and made a 50p profit which was great considering it was almost my first real trade with the darts...... it had a feel like the tennis markets with the swings and laying low and backing a few ticks higher gave me a small profit.

not sure if i will regularly trade the darts as i really don`t know much about the sport !.

only my second day and i have already made £21.20. profit from my £53.00. start bank excellent !

profit £8.40.

bank total £74.20.

only traded a couple of hours but made about £12.80. profit on both the horses and one dog race, i am pleased with it and has boosted my bank nicely.

from £53. it now stands at £65.80.

i will from tomorrow be posting a much more concise profit/loss total but its late now and bedtime has arrived .

well....i have not been on my blog since last year, the reason being is that i have been ill and its given me time to think about my betfair trading and also given me a much needed break from trading.

i was going all out for the football trading but things have not gone well with it and i have left the football service i was with ( more about that later !! ) i have decided on an about turn on my trading and i have gone back to the greyhounds again and will be trading horses with some football and a little bit of tennis thrown in for good measure.

i have got hold of a nifty bit of trading software that's not well known but seems to perform well on the gee gees and i expect to spend the rest of this year on these markets.

i am also starting small with a tiny bank and will try and grow it into a much larger bank this year.

my start bank is £53.00. and a few pence ( all whats left in my account ) and i will try and post daily .... so notwithstanding family problems, illness's here i go again !

i have just started trading on the horses so will post (hopefully) a profit this evening.
