Trading as we see it...

yes I know, I am actually accessing the page (when I'm logged into my accnt), but like I said only by pasting the address in the browser's navigation bar. The scope of my question was to find out whether there was a link (from the "My Account" tab or elsewhere) to access the PCs page, that I'm missing.

PS: another funny thing is that even if I have an account in € the page still quoting everything in pound sterlings. never took the pain to calculate the rate applied and stuff, gotten pissed off enough to see those figures as they are not to feel the need to stare at larger ones... so they might well be ripping me off more than I think..

Ah I see. In that case then the answer is no, there is no such link unfortunately

Just a question to anyone dealing with it (it's OT and I do apologize for that):

I still can't find a direct link to my Premium Charges summary page, and still pasting

https://premiumcharge.Betfair.com/PremiumPortal/portal

in the browser's address bar to get there.

Am I missing it or BF still at unease to supply an easy way to check the bloody levy out?

Ouch. Been a while since I checked in there. Paid them 60k pounds, so they better not come knocking on my door. EVER... :S

I think I have donated your premium charge over the past few years, long way back for me from a bank of about €200, but trading is the only way. I'm going to compund until my stakes are huge.

A question, if I miraculously started winning big now would my 10's of thousands of previous losses be taken into account for future PC calculations ?

Yes everythings based on the lifetime of your account, so you'd need to at least get in profit of at least 4 times whatever you've paid in comms before you'd start paying.

trading is six of one, and half dozen of the other ?
or is it half of one, and six dozen of the other ?

(just because your'e not paranoid, doesn't mean there not all out to get you)

Here is one for you:

Trading is like the future, full of endless possibilities but it is down to you alone to grab each opportunity and make the most from it. No one else can do it for you and you alone are responsible for both the good and the bad no matter how much you try and blame it on others.

Absolutely what i expected from yourself leon.. spot on

Hi all,

A few good responses.. shame there wasnt a few more, the reason i asked was after alot of reading lately and work on my own mental state of mind when trading i've come to realise the association metaphors, questions and projections of ourselves mentally are a good way of measuring where we are aswell as changing our perseption of things. This was more to reinforce my findings aswell as feeding my curiosity... mental states seem to come down to a few things mainly although there are probably hundreds of vairiables. Perseption, Posativity/Negativity, Accepting responsibility and generally being openminded... are the main ones in my opinion.

As expected the full time traders perseptions were as i expected... lost you yet?? to make it easier here are two examples;

Consistently successful trader's metaphor;

Trading is like sailing. You harness the forces that are there. You take into account the wind direction and velocity, the currents, and your destination. You've got your charts to guide you and you constantly adjust to nature's forces, sometimes pointing into the wind, sometimes running before the wind, sometimes tacking, but always in partnership with your boat, your crew, the wind, and the currents. Sure, storms can come up, but you can always let down the sail and anchor and wait out the storm. You work with the forces that are there, the forces that are much bigger than you, but you enjoy the journey, the day, the sport, and you're confident you can get to your destination, your port, your safe harbor.

Unconsistent/loosing traders metaphor;

Trading is like going to do battle. You charge forward brandishing everything you have, when you get knocked down you sheild yourself before picking yourself back up and finding the courage to fight back even harder. When you defeat an opponent you go rushing onto the next still pumped with adrenaline......

I think you get the point... clearly if you see the market like a battle or a fight as in the second example your probably best withdrawing your bank and spending it on something nice while you learn how to change your view/attitude.

Good luck all
