Transforming into a much calmer trader now!

Hi there, I’m Gary (29) I have been a member of the xclub for coming upto 4 months now. The umbrella of resources avaliable to you as a member has completely transformed my trading, from a “break even if lucky” to a more focused, better prepared trader and it is starting to pay dividends. One thing that is true in life is that you get out what you put in. that is certainly the case when applied to trading

It has been an intesting month for my trading so far with a couple of large movements in the pre-game match odds for a couple of games, notably in the Manchester United game and on the Arsenal game recently

Under the guidance of the xclub I have been able to put myself in a position to take advantage of these low risk bank boosters, I have also been concentrating on trading on horse racing following the advice and guidance within the x movers service. The live commentrary provided by Matt is fantastic to slow the market down and to prompt you what you should be looking at, and to me at least it seems as thought the markets move slower (which I know isnt the case I cant just process faster) My trading as a whole has been calmer so far this month and my bank has steadily increased, of course there have been loses but the bottom line is creeping up. What danger this now presents is that I dont get over confident in my abilities as a trader as I have done at times before.

The Arsenal Vs Porto game on the 9th, I found difficult to trade. I successfully made a profit on the game but I found the game hard to make judgement on because of the pace of the game. One thing that I was please regarding my performance was that I stayed out of the markets as I could not be sure wheras before I may have lept in, or not had the discipline to sit out of the market. In black and white this seems silly, but when its in your mind and you have a finicial interest then even the simplist decisions can become paralysing – if you let them be.

I am looking forward to the next issue of the x report and in particular the analysis on past IPL games, with the IPL starting in a few days it is something that I keen to attack. however I do not want to spread my self to thinly and I need to dedicate my trading to mastering or at least improving my football and horse trading, with the start of the flat season in just over a week the markets I have been told will feel like different animals to what we have seen throughout the bleak wintertime.
