Anyone been watching the Asian Cup or the African Cup of Nations?

Been watching the Asian Cup, quality isn't great, but pleasantly surprised. The African Cup of Nations is horrendous. For the quality of players on show, it really is poor.

Not the best day yesterday:

I hate days like these. I had a poor day yesterday too. I should've known it was going to be bad, because I upped the stakes!

Here's an interesting one for folks to consider reading an article re the impact of Afcon:

So almost inevitably with me in celebratory mood - a couple of trades give me a kick up the arse , but as this is about accountability I can't hide from them.. very angry with myself about Girona game, all the signs were there and I also traded it badly in play which I can only describe as a deviation from my discipline and the danger of over confidence.. so last night I had a proper word with myself and revisited that one...

LTD

Parma vs Ascoli

Can't avoid a losing weekend now but will be just over 1pt if this comes in. My only trade for Sunday. Lay under 1.5:

2-0 already

Bit of a shocker today with 4 out of 5 set and forget trades going south. You never quite know where you are with the Turkish football - sometimes you get 5 or 6 goals, and other times (like today) you get 27 goal attempts and 8 shots on goal and the score ends 0-0. Didn't help that I put on a SHG trade on that match as well - double whammy. Having said that it's swings and roundabouts, as yesterday was a good day so I suppose it just about evens itself out. Hope everyone else had a better day today. We go again tomorrow.

@Mark-Maguire All good, Im just slightly concerned with the formation of another boyband...

Martin

@Richard-Latimer great to hear!

@Martin going in the right direction but only because:

I watched all your videos in the training Course (taking notes like I was in school)

the advice you gave

the advice and mentoring and ideas of Ryan

the stats and technical help from Adam

Without the boyband I would be floundering with stupid ideas and would have given up what I'm hoping will now be my livelihood so will always be grateful to you lot (and I have to say the established traders on here who have always been generous with their advice).

You are too kind!

Glad it's working for you though. Good to know that the hard work is paying off!

@Trevor-H I'm still very much learning this and have my horrible moments too.. I often over think which is why I bang on about my stats stuff because that helps me personally narrow things down.. there are professionals/more established traders on here who don't need that and I think its important to get to a point of confidence in what works for you personally - different people will succeed in trading in very different ways. Personally I post what I do on here to hold myself accountable and then on the occasion that I go and trade something stupid out of boredom or restlessness I give myself a proper telling off
