The Sports Trader had a bad day today and it was caused through a momentary lack of concentration, will I ever learn. I only traded on 5 horse races. One small loss, three small gains and one big loss.
The loss came as I was trading on the 14:35 at Beverley. My son Oliver had come to see me for a while and we were deep in conversation about family matters when I saw the chance of backing what I thought was Spiritofthewest so I duly clicked the mouse and backed for £555 @ 1.35, when in fact I had got the colours wrong and had backed the favourite, Kingship Spirit. An easy way to lose £555. It was, of course, totally my own fault I should have been concentrating 100% which is imperative when trading in-running horse races. I should say another lesson learnt but in reality this type of thing is bound to happen on occasions.
Later in the day I traded the match result on the Celtic v AaB football match. I only caught the last 10 minutes of the match but I did manage to back the draw for £882 @ 1.45 and then proceeded to lay off at prices ranging from 1.39 down to 1.22 to leave me with a profit of £163.
My day had ended with a loss of £390.
it's good to see this information in your post, i was looking the same but there was not any proper resource, thanx now i have the link which i was looking for my research.

I am feeling sorry for your father as well as other who was also victim of that day. But matter of fact that it is a nice blog with some valuable information. Thank You a lot.
