Hi
I'm Dave from sunny Manchester
I've been dabbling with some trading for about 4 months or so, partly because I saw it as a progression from matched betting, but mostly because my bookie accounts had almost dried up.I'm hoping to learn how to keep some (most!) of my trading profits I make, as up to now, I seem to go a 100 ahead and then a 100 behind.
My background was electrical engineering and then for the last 20 years or so Facilities Management. This means that I'm pretty anal about record keeping and looking for usable information within those records, which is a habit I hope will help me in my trading education.
Fingers crossed that by the time I retire (still ten years away
) I'll know enough to supplement my meagre pension. -
@david-pickett well good luck with it! keep us updated on your progress

@martin Hi Martin,
I've been trading football.
I read lots of books about trading horse racing, but I just don't know enough about it or have enough interest in it, to dedicate lots of time to trading it. Football is my forte, and once I have a better grip on things, I would like to try tennis trading too. -
@david-pickett Hey buddy
Welcome! Great to have you here, seems we are getting a lot of guys from matched betting coming over to the trading side!
