Hello everyone,
My name is David, I am from London. I am very new to trading. I have been match betting for a while and then came across the BTC videos on YouTube. I’ve been watching for months so I thought I would take the plunge and here I am. Being a newbie I thought I’m going to need some support to get started, hence why I joined the community.
I’m going to be very honest here. I have arthritis of the spine which means I can only work short hours, which is a reason I am free to trade the horses in the day. Over the years I have tried various businesses from home, that haven’t gone well and have built up around 4k debt on a credit card. So, my initial trading goals would be to cover the minimum payments so to bring that debt down (£100 p/m) so it doesn’t impact my family. I’m only starting with £400 bank, so I don’t know how long that could realistically take? I would eventually like to make this my main source of income but I’m not in a rush.
I think I am going to start with Jon’s laying at short odds strategy. I’m going to take £100 and use 2% of that to start. I would like to automate all the strategies in the long run.
I am using the software and have decided to create a dobbing strategy, to play around with.Sorry for going on for so long. I’m very excited to be on this journey.

Welcome! @david-blake
Seems like you are very well set up to get cracking here

Thank you.
I have seen the videos, all makes perfect sense. I am just going to start with one strategy (Jon’s short odds lays). I’m also getting used to the software and trying to create a dobbing strategy. I have been looking for the latest strategy Jon has done (I think it’s got 4.0 in the title) to use as a base to play with. I am rubbish with spreadsheets so I will probably need some support on that. I’ve also just finished the free trial with bet angel and I’m going to use fairbot next. I have seen the bot for this strategy on the fairbot thread, so I’m going to play around in practice mode to get used to it.
