@kevyn-clark Welcome Kev, your in ther right place to learn more

Hi Guys
My name is Kev, I am from Essex
I have been trading on and off for about 5 years with limited success, I started match betting originally and when that started to dry up I turned my focus to trading. Initially I started with horses trying to scalp the markets pre-race and in play back to lay but really struggled with it tbh, I moved over to football and had a bit more success mainly on the over 1.5 goals market but I found if I hit a losing patch my discipline would fail and i would chase losses etc and make rash trades out of frustration and then think this isn't for me, I can't make this profitable etc and then walk away for 6 months or so and then come back again rinse and repeat, I am hoping to try and break this cycle moving forward.
My background is that I work in IT
I joined BTC because I want to find a community where I can grow as a trader and interact with other like minded people and learn as much as I can.
I would really like to consitently make a profit from trading part time and maybe in the future make a full time career from it.

Hi guys,
My name's Sam I'm 31 years old from Grimsby. I'm back for my 2nd attempt at becoming a semi-pro sports trader.
I was here a couple of years ago but with bad bank management and discipline ended up going tilt and lost everything Id spent months building up.I've had a bit of time out and now feel In a better head space to give it another try.
Originally I was trading the over 1.5 goals market and was getting quite good at feeling when the next goal was likely to be scored. I'll start again with this method and try learn others along the way.My aim is to do this around work and have a nice second income and hopefully become a good trader so that in 7 years when my time is up in the military I can do sports trading full time.
Really good idea, sounds like you are coming at it from a much better point of view this time around.
Great work!

@andrew-cripps Welcome!
There's some good stuff in here and some super simple strategies to follow as well which should get you going, let me know if you get stuck!

Who you are? Andy Cripps
Where you are from? West Sussex
What stage are you at in your trading journey? At the beginning
although I know my way around an exchange and am modestly successful within forex.
What's your background? Been matched betting full time for 6 years but am a bit bored of it now, plus it's become much more effort for much less reward.
Why did you join BTC? I was looking for somewhere where I could be introduced to some strategies without getting overwhelmed and avoiding 'get rich quick' hype.
What do you hope to get from the community? It's always great to be part of a larger 'mastermind' group to learn from and then hopefully graduate to a point I can pay it back by contributing and helping others.
What are some of your trading goals? Consistency, consistency and consistency.
