Hi All.
I am Jason from North Wales.
New to trading, but have dabbled with some matched betting, so this is week 5 of working my way through Betfair trading.
Decided to join BTC having watched and read many elements and felt I need the support and knowledge of all you guys.
I am keen to learn and get the most from trading, I work full time but would like to invest more time over the coming months/years into trading.
I am focused on Football for now, it seems vast the amount I need to learn and move my trading into something that's profitable.
I want to learn and I am like a sponge with it all, I can be a little impatient in life, but I am really focussing on taking it slowly.
Thanks Guys.

What Stage? Just starting out on my trading journey?

@richard-eckley great to see you here look at me, pitching you!
Sometimes I do pitch a bit harder when I know the person could be a good member and the kinda people we are looking for.

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 ยฃ10 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!
