@james-woodroffe I learned quite a lot from him but there's also something about his videos that I cant quite put my finger on that I dont like.
He doesn't seem to talk enough about mindset and bank management for me and I think he makes the concept of trading sound a lot simpler than it is, which is probably why I find places like here a lot more useful. I struggled a lot with the psychology of it in the beginning and I think it was watching a couple of Ryan's videos that finally made the penny drop.
I'm not knocking Ben at all as he's obviously a successful trader but I think I've found it more useful gaining info from a wider range of sources.
I came from there as well and I agree. My main issue was the lack of support other than the videos. Which is the complete opposite at BTC also agree about mentality and mindset and zero mention of staking plans.
I’ve learnt more in a month here than a year at UFT.

@eamonn-hogan that’s the plan mate. Quite a few of the guys know what I do for a living and for 21 years it’s been working on live sports TV productions all around the world I’m extremely lucky because of it and it’s been amazing. I also never get to see my kids or be home for anymore than 2 weeks at a time, I also haven’t had a days work since the end of January. The more time I spend at home the less I miss my job. It’s awesome if you’re single and young not as much as if you’re 45 and a husband and father. Sport is all I really know and as much as Covid has been a pain in the arse for so many, it’s made me think more about what I miss as opposed to what I’m missing. My point is my whole life professionaly has revolved around sport I want that to continue but I want to do it from home be with my family and pick and choose when I go away not having going away be the be all and end all of my working life. I’m starting to realise that despite the errors all new traders make I can do this and it’s not a pipe dream and I thank BTC for making that realistic.

Just wanted to say by the way, if anyone is confused by anything on my spreadsheet you only have to ask. I have all these borders and colours etc as well as abbreviations which just let me differentiate between certain things. I can imagine at first glance it would come across as confusing but I've tried to make it as user friendly as possible just for myself haha!!

@matthew-biggins mate I’m a big wrap for Cann Berry I just like the bloke. I tried trading the horses when nothing else was going on but with the whole home schooling thing the hours just didn’t work for me. I’ve been with BTC for a year now and like many others I can’t speak highly enough. The videos the forum the whole thing it’s just a great place to be and learn. I have set myself a goal to go pro in another 12 months from now and there’s not a hope in hell that I could even consider that if it wasn’t for BTC.
Are you that far ahead that you are setting yourself to go pro mate? fair play

@martin-futter I cheated I’m up 3 points.
-
@gary-brown put it down to watch but sceptical seeing as its the first game back. Might leave it unless it's a really open game
-
@james-woodroffe yeah this is the first time I've signed up for anything like this, mainly for the community.
Quite like watching Caan Berry's as well stuff even though he's geared more towards racing which goes straight over my head. But he was another one who was great for drilling in the importance of mindset.
-
Any one looking at the Sevilla game tonight guys?
I got it down as a second half goal but interested to see how it pans out.
Pre match research I guess is pointing to a home favourite win here or at least a draw. -
@matthew-biggins his strategies are quite good for beginners and you do get a lot of content but if i need to get some sleep i just put one of his videos on lol
-
@matthew-biggins yeah don’t get me wrong but you’re spot on. This is the place to be. I get infinity more from being here.
-
@martin-futter I’m 2 points up I’m happy with that.

Is the Liefering match out now @Martin-Futter? I just missed my entry but at 2-0 my filter says another. Any thoughts?
I’m done for the day. Would want it to be drawing to enter personally. Been a very good day again.

That's it for tonight anyway. Another green day one pt to the good. Definitely moving slowly in the right direction at the moment.
Missed the first goal in Viborg so when I noticed it was 0-2 I jumped in. Jumped out again at 1-2 with a little more green than I would otherwise have had. Works both ways though as I forgot about my bet in Israel and didn't back Sakhnin. They went behind 0-1 but pulled it back quickly enough so a re-lay would have brough some green back on that. All good for the system them which is getting on for 30 selections and still doing ok.
LTD Lisen as well so I'm happy enough.
Until tomorrow....or the early hours of the morning haha!!!
I seem to be the only one awake for the late stuff at the moment.

I was looking at this one James but the odds were very low before the second half goal. Maybe no value in this match now I guess.

@martin-futter Excellent video, Martin. And thank you, Richard, for creating and sharing your system! :thumbs_up:
