Lee's Diary, wanting to be Pro eventually

Hi Guys,
Time to fully commit to a strategic approach and see where about's I am in the process.
The story so far.......
I've been punting conservatively as a hobby for the last 20 years with some small success and took a long break from it in various stages. I discovered various youtube videos and blogs last year about matched betting and trading in general and became an online stalker to learn as much as possible.
I was amazed to see how many people actually are successful enough to progress into full-time trading and became intrigued that potentially it may be an option if I'm successful at this. I love the idea and principles of trading, more so than matched betting, the challenge of creating strategies. This is why I've decided to start this blog and document absolutely everything in my journey please forgive me if I'm stating obvious things here lol.
I've decided to start today by staking 2.5% of my bank for each trade and primarily not to overtrade which has been an issue in the past through overconfidence (especially on Saturdays and Sundays). I will only be trading on football markets at the moment as they suit my time frame well and have been a follower of the sport since I was walking.
I must also add that this is by far the best community chat that I've come across regarding trading and I hope you won't get annoyed with my questions lol.
Good luck all and happy trading

Hi Guys last 2 days' results, a negative day yesterday which made me evaluate my research and came to a decision to try and use the software filter (which i've struggled to use before). Tonight's results were very good and put me back on track after a couple of bad trading days.

@lee-snape Love the comments about the forum and community, thank you.
We won't get annoyed. I encourage people asking Q's, especially as I bet you asking them there's10 people wishing they could ask it.
So it helps everybody - I know this for a fact as well actually.
Interesting to watch this play out.
