@chris-osborne I initially planned to do it until stakes reached more than the input but I'm over halfway there now and I need the excess in my normal bank more than I do here now so yeah that's it.

Milestone reached

Tomorrow's potentials:

Time's getting on and can't be bothered to update tonight right now so will do that tomorrow. Undersold myself for yeesterday as it was actually 5/5.

Augsburg came so so close and I know my micro analytical style has come in for quite a bit of stick but it's this that's turned things around for me. I follow the data in patterns wherever it leads and if that's only temporary then so be it.

For Augsburg it was a case of the home odds being 3.00. This is very close to the small odds range of 2.64-2.83 which has been a pig (I put it down to close teams in ability). Before I will trade anything I'm looking for 7 good trades at the end of each range. This had 6 good trades with odds over 2.83 and less than 3.02. 3.02 was basically my entry so as you can see it missed by fractions.

Since yesterdays fail in that game the poor range has been extended to 2.74-3.00 and nothing will be taken that doesn't hit 3.2 until such time as more positive data is unearthed so as to show it was just a blip then I will be looking at getting it down from 3.2 ever so slowly as long as I can show 7 positive trades since the last loss.

Now I wonder if that makes sense to anybody but me haha!

@richard-latimer With your bankroll going in the right direction does this mean your no longer making your weekly deposit?

[Richard Latimer]

Still sorting out yesterdays and I'll post with todays when I'm done. Today was another 4/4 from a limited set of matches so very happy with that. Bank reaches yet another new high and staking for tomorrow is as follows:

@richard-latimer sounds like things are looking up mate great to hear, enjoy the new adventure!

[Richard Latimer]

Forgot to post up current bank and staking moving forward.

[Richard Latimer]

It's going to take me a while to get through the update, not the least because I've been looking at the plethora of online dating sites tonight as soon to be ex wife went on first date today and I'm damn sure I don't want to get left behind.

Anyone any experience of bumble haha??

So things are a little better for me financially than they have been. Not in the short short term but moving foward. We've agreed the house has to be sold as for either of us trying to rent with no capital would be an absolute nightmare. So we clear debts and split 50/50 meaning I'll have a decent chunk of change to start over.

Always knew I'd be ok in the long long term but not going to lie the short term was getting a little hairy. This is a weight off my mind for sure.

So the finances are looking up
The trading is looking up
And I've just clicked like instead of swipe on my first which is a big step haha!!

4/4 Bank is at a new high. Will detail everything later.
