Sunday 2nd December 2007

It has been another very busy week for the Sports Trader, not only on the trading front but also personally as on Friday my eldest daughter, Jenny,  got the keys to her new flat and moved in over the weekend. Below is a summary of the weeks trading.

Monday 26th November - It was a good start to the week with 15 horse races and 1 football match traded and only 1 losing trade. I ended up with a profit of £80 on the racing and £83 on the football to result in a profit of £163 on the day.

Tuesday 27th November - Another good day with 12 horse races and 2 football matches traded and again with just the 1 loss although this was a big one. My day started off well with the 12:10 at Kempton where I laid Procas de Thaix for £2306 @ 1.30 quite early in the race and then backed back £1720 @ 1.57 to leave myself with a profit of £290. My race trading finished with a profit of £357. I ended up losing £320 on the Sevilla v Arsenal match after some very quick goals were scored but I did make back £150 on the Man U v Sporting game to result in a profit on the day of £187.

Wednesday 28th November 2007 - The day started off well after trading on 11 horse races with a profit of £218 but then I gave it all away and then some more with some poor trading on two football matches. I ended the day with a loss of £31.

Thursday 29th November 2007 - This was a much better day. I traded on 18 horse races with 1 loss to result in a profit of £224. In the evening I traded on 2 football matches with a profit of £53 to give me a profit of £277 on the day.

Friday 30th November 2007 - I had a very short day of trading as there were many things to do with Jenny in preparation for her getting hold of the keys to her flat. I only traded on 6 horse races but still managed a profit of £256.

Saturday 1st December 2007 - This was a good day of trading and also the main day for moving Jenny so I missed the first few races. I ended up trading on 17 horse races for a profit of £524. In the evening I traded on 3 parts of football matches which resulted in a profit of £39 and later I made a further £36 on the Hendry v O'Sullivan snooker match to end my day with a profit of £599.

Sunday 2nd December 2007 - This turned out to be the best trading day of the week for me after trading on 17 horse races where I made a profit of £710 and 1 football match which resulted in a profit of £20 to leave me with a profit of £730 on the day.

After a very good week of trading I managed to make a profit of £2181.

This week also saw the end on my November trading where I made a total profit of £5962.

Hi Martin, Dave & Keane,

Thanks for your comments. The hardest thing to learn in this game is to get consistant profits and limit the losses. I try to do this by setting myself targets and not letting the odd loss get me down. It is easier to make a series of small profits than one big profit and if the trade goes wrong it does not hurt too much.

Good Luck with your trading.

Hi Ray

Good to see another very good month and long may it continue...also hope those issues in your personal life are getting sorted.

I think there are many traders out there that have a bad day/week or take a big loss and think of calling it a day but after reading your blog it really does inspire in a big way, to re assess and carry on..

All the best

Jimmy

Do you have a viable business but lack the necessary finances to get it off it’s feet?
