MY TURN FOR TO TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY

@Alex-Rendell said in MY TURN FOR TO TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY:
@Simon-Bates I personally have had an alright summer; slow but steady due to an obvious lack of matches being played (which may also have caused 'unusual' losses in some people's otherwise successful strategies - fewer results = higher risk of short-term variance). Just need to get the first two infuriatingly inconvenient international breaks out of the way and we'll be back into the swings of things around October/November time!
HI Alex what systems are you trading and finding ok in the Summer months please?

@Alex-Rendell I was down £20.29 in June from 119 games, up £15.25 in July from 116 games, down a fiver in 2 months, hopefully like you say it'll pick up in next few months with more and more winter leagues starting back up and more filter results.
8 games into the start of the new seasons should be around 2nd week October ish, then we can all get back to profiting again from our strategies.I too wait for 8 games minimum from the start of the system before i trade , learnt from others on here for that and it is the sensible thing to do. I am sure things will pick up soon enough

@james-everard it would be good to know if any other traders have had a poor June and July trading results wise.
I don't know how long you've been trading for James, so not sure if you can answer this, but did you have the same slump last year, June and July, and if you did, did it start picking up again when the winter leagues started back up?
Hi Simon , looking back at this blog i had a terrible June and July last year as well. Admittedly that was before but i wasn't trading correctly. I should have paper traded systems which i did from August to December . The injury time goal though as performed ever so well each month so that is my go to system for the time being

Update for July and it hasn't been a great month , i did notice a downturn on some of the strategies the last week of June and it has continued for July so perhaps the summer leagues on some of the systems aren't worth trading . Results below based on £10.42 stakes (1% liability stakes) bank at start of July was £1042.42.

Profit £210.00Still managed to make £61.97 profit and my new trading bank is £1104.39, new stakes for August will be £11.04( 1% of bank)
I am going to paper trade the 2.5 goal market, back the draw and back under 1.5 goals for August and see if there is an upturn. So for August just back the injury time goal and lay the home side for next month

Thanks for your support Matt and Stuart. I should have listened to advice ages ago and wasted lots of money and time.
Advice again for any newbies , paper trade , paper trade and paper trade until you find a system /systems that are profitable. I did this for 3-4 months then started off with a £100 bank bank in December using 1% stakes just £1 liability and built it up from there. Listen to advice from others and not just do your own thing like i was ! -
@james-everard

That's superb!
Made up for you. You've worked so hard at this and it is coming together beautifully.

Ended up doing the old fashioned way of paper trading takes ages to record it all as i have been paper trading about 15 systems.

Thanks mate it's been a long hard slog of 3 years and finally seeing some results.
Best advice for newbies is don't ever put any money on straight away and paper trade a few systems for 3-4 months min and then if consistently profitable each money then start with a smallish bank £100 and use 1% labiality stakes and build from there. That's what i eventually did after 3 years of losing a lot of money Gone from a £100 starting bank in November and now upto £634 at the beginning of May so it doesn't take long once you have found a couple of systems the bank compounds. -
