Introduce Yourself to the Community

Who you are? Lee
Where you are from? Near Preston, Lancs
What stage are you at in your trading journey? Traded a couple of years ago but with no structure, no mentality, no bankroll management. Developed ‘fuckarounditis’ and trading didn’t last for me (also for personal reasons). Didn’t do anything with it for 18 months and then 5 months ago I started again with a much improved mindset and mentality. Set a target of 10 PTS per month and I’ve hit it each month so far
What's your background? I worked the 9-5’s now I do matched betting full time for the last 3-4 years
Why did you join BTC? I was a member a couple of years ago and always like the members and the guys who run it
What do you hope to get from the community? Bounce ideas around and pick up strategies and ideas
What are some of your trading goals? Hopefully trade full time. I want to continue to develop some solid strategies, lots of discipline and knowledge. I’ve got some decent thinking in certain aspects but bad habits in other

Hoping to read how people's journeys, how people make trading work for them on what ever scale, and how people tackle the most difficult aspect of trading "the mind"

@darri Hi Darri welcome to the community, i'm also in Aberdeen! If you ever want to grab a coffee and chat trading give me a shout
-
Who are you? Darri
Where are you from? Aberdeen
What stage are you at in your trading journey? Trading part time around studies, scalping pre event on markets and hoping joining the community will help my in play trading
Whats your background? Started betting on football, golf and horses, transitioned into laying and now trying to get to grips with trading as find it more satisfying when there is a small bit of logic behind it
Why did you join BTC? I have a big lack of discipline in the markets and thought after watching the videos of ryans routine that joining a community with like minded traders would keep me more grounded with a more professional mindset
What do you hope to get from the community? To interact with like minded traders as its a very niche subject talking to anyone who hasnt traded before. To learn and develop ideas and share experiences of trading
What are some of your trading goals? To be able to watch sport full time and make profit at same time sounds good to me

\ Paul
\ Co. Durham
\ I joined BTC 1 week ago,
\ I have used betfair from the start, mainly gambling, betting/laying horses/football, and like most others with no game plan, although a few years back I did study front runners and when to lay them, and had a good run , I came to a halt when I broke the rules of bankroll managment.
\ Plasterer for 45 years, now semi retired. Poker player from before the online boom, gave me a head start when the online masses arrived into the game, and for the first 5 years made a very good side income, the game changed and the next 10 years I was a break even player, and the last couple of years, I have been a losing player, what changed? the players and the game changed, now the AVERAGE decent poker player has a good education and some kind of maths background, these are an essental part of the tools needed to get you to the next level imo,
the amount of different software, time and study I have put into poker is second to none, but the modern game study needs to be at a different level, which I just cannot do.
\ I joined BTC, because I enjoy the challenge, I believe with the software and knowlege and help from members, the different stat sites, the Xg sites, and info for study thats out there I could become a winning player, although I would be happy to break even, I like nothing more than studying form and getting stuck into software until I get it right, its my kind of thing .
\ I hopefully hope to get help from the community if needed, and once I learn the ropes I would be the first to help others.
\ My goal is to enjoy the challenge, I realise from life experience the more you put in. hopefully the more you get out -
@martin-futter Yes, for reporting on his hidden money in Luxembourg after Panama gate.
-
@frode-lia he sued you?
-
@martin-futter He sued me in 2015. But but. He will probably go for a 4-3-3 formation with attacking wingers. The play will be build up around Pogba. He will probably favor the defenders that is best with the ball (and worst to defend).
-
@frode-lia any inside track on him?
