Mets' Trading Diary: July 2011
http://mets-trading-diary.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 27 July 2011. Well I managed to get the new iMac in without too much bother. And the Mini is on the other side of the room to run my bot and so I can write some more data import code. Not my usual mug you understand. The beauty of running a virtual machine is that you can copy over the image and run it in another vm on another machine right away. I copied over my Mini's vm image to my iMac last night and was glad to see Windows 7 boot up without any bother. Don't get in there as I've already h...

Mets' Trading Diary: January 2012
http://mets-trading-diary.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 31 January 2012. I wasn't even going to trade today but was pleased I did as just about everything I did went right. The pre-race trading has been a bit hit-and-miss lately but I couldn't put a mouse-click wrong today. Sometimes, just having the rub of the green. Last week, I spent ages in the editing room, polishing up some footage of my trading which I recorded recently. Links to this post. Saturday, 14 January 2012. I'm really impressed actually, everything looked exactly the same as the Betf...

Mets' Trading Diary: August 2011
http://mets-trading-diary.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 22 August 2011. To Matt over at Mind Games. For helping me load my lifetime Betfair profit-and-loss log into his excellent Results Summary spreadsheet. For a couple of quid this thing is the biz. I've finally got an idea of how I'm doing on other events besides the horse racing and the answer is.rubbish! I'm pleased that I haven't got too much to claw back on the football and golf, as I'm intending on becoming consistently profitable in these sports within 12 months. Links to this post. John Send...

Mets' Trading Diary: June 2012
http://mets-trading-diary.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 27 June 2012. I've been having a bit of a move around in the trading room. I'm probably on my 4th configuration of my trading setup now! I quite like ripping it all out and starting again - it helps me to streamline my setup (and get to that hard-to-reach dust! My workspace is vitally important to me, especially as my OCD doesn't cope well with clutter! I'm a bit apathetic towards my trading at the minute and it spilled into Ascot unfortunately; developing my swing-trading has taken quite a lo...

Mets' Trading Diary: December 2011
http://mets-trading-diary.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, 31 December 2011. Well, 2012 is nearly upon us and it's certainly been an interesting year as far as the trading goes. About this time last year, things started to "click into place" and January was the first month when my income actually matched that of my old job. When February and March followed suit, I could relax knowing I would be financially ok, at least for a little while. My strike rate is approx around 65% at the moment so my goal for 2012 is to improve that to at least 75-80%. Late 2...

Mets' Trading Diary: What a difference a-ldi makes
http://mets-trading-diary.blogspot.com/2012/05/what-difference-ldi-makes.html
Wednesday, 23 May 2012. What a difference a-ldi makes. Well, I'm still here grinding away.and what a grind it was today. Two low grade all weather meetings on a Wednesday afternoon should have had alarm bells. Ringing as far as pre-race trading is concerned but that didn't stop me getting stuck in. One day I'll learn from past mistakes. The markets were so horrendously manipulated that only a fool would get involved.especially when there's a Barney Curley. To think I can crack. Even after all this time, ...

Sledge Poker!: April 2010
http://sledgepoker.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, 22 April 2010. After my recent rant regarding the tennis trading I calmed down and realised that a player retiring is rare, I was just unlucky.and have been doing pretty good since, have had limited success at the small go at the Flw, as I bottle it when the first one loses lol! The pic above shows how sweet Betfair trading can be.when you cant lose with the home/away win or draw, maybe getting the hang of it, nice when they all hit green. This is the last 7 days trading at bus driver levels.

http://sledgepoker.blogspot.com/2010/04/april-half-time.html
Wednesday, 14 April 2010. Well its not brilliant half way through, in the first few days lost 10 buy ins! Was all the usual trips v trips, aa lost 3 times pre etc etc.Yawnnnn! Got 3 buy ins back at Omaha, and some small Mtt cashes.

But then came the zinger! Nothing on Betfair screen and it vanishes?
