I asked a question about how to find suitable trades easily and he said BTC can get me them in 3 clicks and my second question was also solved by joining BTC and I should really join! He did say he doesn't like to hard pitch the community on the podcast but, I should definately join, it could change my life and also it's really nice! Hence my jokey comment about the "hard sell"! I was already giving considerable thought to joining.
I've been working the last few days and I'm not off until Tuesday and work late, so have only been able to bet and forget stuff so far and watch the getting started videos.

@richard-eckley great to have you here!
Don't get me started on council tax they put my property up a band last year the cretins.
Haha I love that you repair gambling machines, sounds like you would be handy around the house!
What was it that @ryan said? I know he can be persuasive!
Safety reasons wow, bookies will say anything won't they.
If you need any help with anything just let me know.

Hello there!
I'm Richard
I'm from Grays in Essex (The one where the council got scammed, lost all the money and the tax is going up by 10% as a result. Still you've got laugh, probably).
I've been trading for a couple of months. The usual story - making steady progress and then scaled up too quickly and/or did a poorly researched trade when I couldn't keep an eye on it.
I've been a field service engineer for the last 7 years, repairing gambling machines, pool tables and other leisure machines. If I can't work out how to fix something I'll ring someone who might be able to help.
I joined BTC because Ryan really hard sold it to me on the podcast ! That and I was doing matched betting, I'm gubbed on 3 sites (officially on 2 and stealthily on 1 - I was jumping through hoops to get Β£10 out of BetUK and while that got sorted I asked about the lack of promotions and was told they were, temporarily, removed for "safety reasons"! ) and I thought trading would be the next step.
I hope to get better at trading by learning.
Goals wise I want to be a profitable trader, if I can do that I'll think of another goal!

@toyin-butler Lol love this, so what do you think about your lifestyle is lavish? I am intrigued now! lol
I was chatting to a derivatives trader in the gym, she's like 34 with a Range Rover SVR and her gym bag is more expensive than everybody's in the gym combined lol
You'll find some strategies here!

@toyin-butler amazing, welcome to the family!
Keep me updated on how you get on and if you ever need any help just message me

Hello Champions!
Great to be here, my name is Toyin.
I live in Woodford which on the London/Essex border and I have had my betfair account since 2006. I opened it to use the betangel software and automate a trading strategy for a colleague who was also an oil derivatives trader. After I left the company I dropped the project and then about 2 years ago (pandemic project) I picked it up again without betangel and going direct to the exchange using their api.All I need now are some winning strategies to automate and that's why I joined BTC (saw some great YouTube content)!
My background is software engineering, I hope to learn and laugh (not too much crying I hope) and my trading goals are to make this thing pay for my lavish lifestyle

@tony-hastie It's another girl! I know I am big trouble
Oh yeh Brigg isnt far from me, yeh a lot of people say that as well they forget they had a family least the software gets people back to their wife and kids.

@ryan
Hi Ryan
yes, i have went through all the videos. i found them very informative and made things clearer for me. i am paper trading till after Cheltenham , i have been using the preset strategies which have been showing a great level of profit and will continue to use them at 10 pound unit stakes until i get more confident in myself and the use of the software when i may try and adapt a few for hopefully larger returns. i am definitely here for the long term as i say there are proven strategies but once you get more confident you can alter them or create your own, however the fact people share existing ones i think is brilliant. thanks you all Billy. -
@scott-higgins Welcome!
I was in Sheff at the weekend, a city I know well and not that far from me!
Welcome to the group, great intro.
I think Martin see's himself a bit like our Cilla too
-
@scott-higgins great stuff, good to have you here!
What a start!
-
Hi, just a quick hello from me, I'm Scott from Sheffield.... sounded like a Blind Date introduction if you're old enough to remember the TV show!
A match better for the last 2 years which has built a bank to help me on the trading path. Dabbled in sports trading but feel i need to help and guidance of this community. Tried other platforms but not for me.
Trading at the side of my full time job (helps when you WFH!) and hope to hit around Β£300 profit per month as I steadily learn and build my bank allowing me to make higher profits. Using this time to learn so hopefully 1 day i reach my goal of trading in the sun!
Up Β£21.90 today using Β£2 stakes following the Horse set & forgets so far today which is a lovely start.
Already have BF manager and looking to import the set and forgets but not the most tech savvy so might be a struggle!
Looking forward to the journey!

@tony-hastie welcome! Try having two boys
-
@ryan She was born in Brigg, although family moved to Scotland when she was 6..
Yeah, I really did enjoy searching for selections but think I was becoming a bit TOO engrossed in things and forgetting I had a wife and kids...
If its another girl you are in so much trouble Good luck...
-
Yo!!!!
Look at you you are a charmer!!!
Where abouts in Lincolnshire? Love that you were with the girls as well, my little lady is my fave person in the world and sure the one about to drop will be too.
Is it spam if it's good for you?
That's interesting about the time saving element as well, that was the click moment for you. Did you enjoy the process of finding the selections before? Was it tedious?

Hey Folks, Im Tony
Im the third Scotland based newbie in a row, staying in sunny North Ayrshire for the past 7 years. Originally from New Zealand. My wife was born in Lincolnshire and I lived(and played rugby) in Norwich in the early 90s so already feel a strong bond with Ryan and Martin(Ive been watching youtube videos)
Ive been matched betting for 6 months and dabbling in trading for the last month or so.
Spent 30 odd years as a joiner but for the last 7 have been an at home dad to 2 girls(7 and 3)
Why did I join? To stop you guys spamming me with emails The one that got me was the how much time I would save with the software.
Instant profitable strategies with a view to creating my own...hopefully in Rugby union!
Learn learn learn. Develop a steady income, take pressure of my wife who is sole income earner without having to get a job when the youngest starts school!Good to be here
