Thanks for your help.<br /><br />Thanks Robert. My maximum liability is about £800. I don't have a set rule about backing or laying first. That's determined by the direction in which I think the price will move. <br /><br />I agree, Leonthefixer. I'm hoping to eventually break that habit.Allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685370058479260016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6989857505057441594.post-51480652546980596682009-08-09T07:46:37.777-07:002009-08-09T07:46:37.777-07:00very inconsistent profits, seems you're almost...very inconsistent profits, seems you're almost gambling judging by the spread in wins/losses.

Great totals on Saturday, may i ask are you using your own knowledge of horse racing to access the markets? or trading them blind shall we put it? <br /><br />I can hopefully guide you in the right direction of nailing that all important discipline rule. First i'd say don't worry about targets, personally i think it adds more pressure on yourself and too be honest like gambling you don't really know what the day is going to throw at you. Also the reason I red up every single time I'm in a loss is to ensure my solid discipline is not touched for the remaining day. Lets say the big red came in, you will be regretting not redding up for at least the next race and prolly the rest of the day. Its almost too easy to lose again the following race because your controlled midset has been thrown out of sync. Redding up enables you to deal with that loss there and then and not let it carry on in your head for the rest of the day. Hope this helps<br /><br />JackJack Birkheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02334478351378276126noreply@blogger.com
