17th-18th August

Hi Folks,

The last few days I have tried to be a bit more selective with my trades.

I only traded one Tennis match yesterday and that was Murray Vs Nalbandian. I backed Murray from the start for half a stake (2.5%) of my bank and then when he went a break down, and Nalbandian held serve, but far from comfortably I backed Murray again at 1.57 for another 2.5% of bank. Eventually Murray broke Nalbandian and then went onto win the set and I hedged out for a £1.05 (19.4% ROI).

Today I traded two Tennis matches. Firstly I traded the Nadal Vs Verdasco match, but only once Nadal was an early break down and his odds moved out to about 1.43. I backed him with half a stake (2.5%). When he broke back and then won the first set tie-break I hedged out for a £1.17 profit (29% ROI).

I then backed Fish in his match against Gasquet at 1.63, again for half a stake. When he broke and won the set I hedged out for £1.17 (29% ROI).

I also traded one football match this evening and that was the Hearts Vs Spurs. Once I saw the teamsheet for Spurs, and the fact that it was a strong line-up I laid the draw, with a stop loss of 1.9, which was 3.5% of my bank. Spurs scored inside the first 5 minutes and I hedged out for a profit of £2.31 (41% ROI).

So over the last two days I made £5.58.

Happy Trading
