I feel free. Something in the force is somehow lighter and more cheery. Despite it being a massive setback and hurting my end goal I could have a losing month and potentially not have to explain myself in War & Peace style essays!

As I get closer to my goal I'm going to have to start talking about boring things such as how do I get letting agents to recognise trading income in afforability checks and if they won't what great ideas can people come up with to legitmise my cash in the immediate haha!!

However, this is all jumping the gun and until it's relevant it's not in the slightest bit relevant!

Tomorrow:

Nothing until the 6th now

[Richard Latimer]

Def nowt for tomorrow

[Richard Latimer]

Nothing for tomorrow and currently not looking like anything until the 6th but we'll see.

Little too over eager after a famine but no harm done. Should have realised the odds on Dulwich didn't qualify for a 0-0 HT score.

Official was this:

Eastleigh was odds of 3.65 to lay so pretty amazing in terms of what you normally get on these

Dag & Red was 5.8

In any case, including the minor mistake bank is £251.99 and +£7.82 for the day.

3/3 to start the new year. Update properly later.

Just the English leagues again as they're mostly the only ones mad enough to play so much this time of year:

Last game not inplay so New Year's Day is a dud

@richard-latimer I can imagine mate , not helped by covid not doing anyone's mental health any good. Hopefully this year we may see an end to it all fingers x

[Richard Latimer]

@james-everard Good on you, hopefully 2022 can be better than 2021 which was my worst on record (not trading but everything else).

[james everard]

@richard-latimer Exactly the same for me mate but probably not quite the urgency you have. Good you have the discipline and not chasing losses which is why i have decided to follow your example and post daily on my blog to make sure i don't deviate away from my strategies and start chasing losses etc. Good luck mate

Going to post these now in case I'm feeling worse for wear:

Not the Prem. League is in the red currently.

Some more stuff has shown up in English leagues so I'm going to have to force myself in front of the computer. Bugger!

@richard-latimer Nice one Richard, well done for this

[John Folan]

@martin that’s what I think sometimes. When it’s slow at the start it can seem pointless but trading is like a snowball effect. I do everything on 1% compounding (or 1/2% compounding if it’s swingy). If the strategy is any good it will get where you want it in time. That little snowball will become an avalanche, especially if over time you develop a few of them.

Anyway who won the race? The tortoise or the hare?

Have a good new years all!

You too mate, really love the foundation you are building here showing how to build from the ground up, of course the initial stages will be slow and not yield big profits but if it creates a winning trader then all you need to do is scale, keep up the good work!

[Richard Latimer]

Have a good new years all!
