Hi everyone,
Im Lee and I joined earlier today, I've been using the exchange for sometime now on and off for punting on football. I want to give trading a go and have been reading alot to try and venture into it. I've traded matches since January and found myself in profit but feel I'm still punting not trading. Long term wise I do want to try and trade full time and know its a marathon not a sprint so look forward to speaking with you all very soon.

@dan-mackinnon Oh its good. Jonah Hill's therapist. He basically didn't believe therapists should let you work the issues out and created a set of tools you can use straight away - it's great! I've bought the book and started it yesterday very very good book!

@dan-mackinnon Have you watched Stutz on Netflix?

@lee-snape I tell everybody one sport, one strategy. Get that nailed first.
Too many people come into trading like a squirrel, then wonder why they aren't getting results. Put all effort into one strategy nail that then move on.

This sounds very interesting. I’m also starting my journey and will follow closely your posts
I’m looking at football strategies and low stakes first to find a profitable formula before staking up with an appropriate bank!
Good luck

@lee-snape I love reading and have read a couple of books about trading and psychology. What books are you reading?

I have to admit you guys are one of many that I've been YouTube stalking for a while when I thought trading could potentially be a full-time job (way into the future).
This is what I've been researching/subscribing to the last couple of months.
Purchased odds monkey subscription
Purchased Bet angel subscription
Enrolled into 2 academy's regarding racing but then contradicted myself by buying 3 books which 1 of them has hit me sideways with the research that the author states I should be doing.
This week I havent been trading much as I'm reading a book on the psychology of trading and how we make our decisions.
Football trading is by far my biggest strength but maybe some of my negative thinking about only having 1 discipline when guys online have many has been a set-back? I'm now just focused on Football until that results in continuous success.

@lee-snape Yep a blog is a great idea, I think watching the getting started videos and starting a blog should be compulsory here.
So many times people have said they know they should watch the videos but dont lol

Thank you for the warm welcome.
Most definitely need help
I have a few trading ideas, which I'm hoping stop me feeling like I'm punting and also thinking about keeping a blog. -

Hello.
Which planet did you land from? Not Zarg, that's my home world! Nice women, they have lovely moustaches. A bit like Glaswegian mothers
