Hi everyone, so here is my first post of my new blog. For the past two years I have been doing match betting using Betfair and various bookie websites. I did this in my spare time, trying to make a bit of extra cash to pay off debts and generate some savings. However, now I am looking to go one step further and start trading in the world of sports. I first heard about sports trading on various websites, and started to read all I could on the subject. I have been 'Paper Trading' for about six-seven months and doing the odd 'real money' trading trying to get a feel for the various sports markets. So, at this point in time I thought it would be good to start documenting my progress. Hopefully as I learn, you readers will learn too and enjoy my story!!!! I will be starting with a bank of £100. Wish me luck. Here is my initial set-up for my trading. It is a bit basic at the moment. Eventually I am hoping to set-up an upstairs office for my trading.
This blog will follow my journey into the world of sports trading and matched betting.

Hi there!
ReplyDeleteOnly today I've found your blog via racingtraders forum.
I'm now following it!
I started a year ago with match betting, my current bankroll is around 2000 euros. Some of this money was won on online poker playing freerolls.
I intend to continue with match betting as long as bonus exist, but in the future I know that I must go into trading.
I don't mind to live with small daily profits like 5€ to 25€
6 months for paper trading is a lot of time experimenting... I guess you're very cautious (like me)
Good luck and I'll be posting here a lot ;)
