Default My blog

during christmas I decided to revive my blog since I'm starting trading again, this time I'm really going at it as I need to be ready to go fulltime in 4-6 months, that's when I finish college...

I'm starting to get the hang of trading, mostly 10-15 minutes before the off where I scalp, but today I also found something interesting which allows me to do some long term swing trading, which I will try to do monday. I'm not sure yet if my theory works in practice but it looks good on paper. hopefully it'll work.

ps. got my 25 posts now Geek, and I'm also a consistent spammer.. eeh contributor. so don't tear down my blog again! :P

I don't have a blog because it would be very embarrassing. I traded out at half time in two big games tonight and took small losses because I was throwing a tantrum after the Real Madrid game. They were lazy and cost me money.
In the other games, in the Over 2.5 market, final score in one was 3 - 0, and the latest score in the other was 4 - 0.
I mention this because a great deal of trading is influenced by emotions. They can either make you do well or make you screw up.
I could do with a bot to instill some discipline in me but don't know where to get a suitable one. I don't think they make one for stupid old blokes like me.

I'm really in to bots myself.. I love making bots, actually I'm working on a bot for world of warcraft at the moment with a few other guys around the world. we are doing something that has never been done before (not in public bots anyway) can't tell you more as it is a private project and has to be kept underground - legal reasons :/

my point is, I may make a bot for trading when I'm profitable myself (the bot is only as smart as its creator)

You are much younger in heart than many in here. I think this is that counts.

MF is not so complicated as it may looks. It depends on what you are trying to do but a simple trigger is not a big deal. You can ask for a specified trigger and download when its ready
Triggered betting in MF is easy compared to using Excel.

No, I am not using MF myself but who knows...still have to find strategy for automated bets

That's it, I'm going to pull it for excessive ass kissing.

Good luck with it.

This is why I took my blog down. I didn't like the fact that I couldn't control who was reading it. Give away too much information for free, and you may find yourself out of opportunities. (Legally, as well as pure strategy... No need to tempt the tax man into reading just how much gambling is actually being done)...

I'm anonymous on my blog because I don't want my family to stumble upon it and read it. there's no way my blog can be traced back to me, expect of course by IP tracing but that won't happend..

and don't worry about the taxman, betfair is categorized as gambling for everybody or it's categorized as something else for everybody, can't make special rules.. oh and, I am gambling I just change my mind about the horse every 10 second :P
