Morning folks. Bit of a late post this week as I get ready for a family member’s birthday. And probably only a quick one. I earned a profit of over £126, which is my second highest amount achieved during the season. I’m really happy with this, and it shows a good change in fortune. Here’s a screenshot of some of Week 14’s trades:

Not a bad week in all honesty. Something I did want to mention, is that at the beginning of the week and up to Saturday I was just over £100 in profit. This put me in a dilemma. I was wondering whether to just stop there for the week and not to trade on Sunday or Monday and accept the £100 profit. Thankfully, after my lessons learnt throughout this trading journey, I decided to just carry on doing what I’m doing and trade the fixtures that have been put in front of me. A wise decision as on the Sunday I added a bit more to the bank. Monday took a bit of that away, but overall I added another 25% to the bank over the 2 days.

What would I have thought if I lost a lot of money on the Sunday and Monday? I probably still would have thought that I had made the right decision. The thing is, if you do believe you have an edge, then you’ve got to utilise that edge in all circumstances. You can’t not trade because you have a “bad feeling”. A lot of my trades I’ve not held out much hope for, but they’ve surprised me and turned out winners. So you just need to trust that you’ve done your homework and you should come out on top.

So, what does that £126 do to my overall journey so far this season? Here comes the table and graph…:

With 10 games left until the end of the season, I still need to make up a fair bit of profit just to break even. Without trading the last 2 weeks, I probably need to make just over £60 profit a week over those 8 weeks. It’s doable. I just need to keep on top of my game. I decided to do a bit of maths and have a look at what increasing my stakes would do to potential profits. And if I increase my stake units by only £2, I can add an extra 33% profit (or loss, but I’m thinking positive here) to my figures. I know I need to make the step up at some point, and I’ve built a nice little bit of a bank behind me, I’m just wondering when is the best time. Looking at my P&L, my results have been all over the place this season, so that’s not much to go off. I probably just need to make a decision to increase my stakes and ensure I can absorb a few losing weeks and just keep to the new staking level. It’s something to have a good think about over the international break.

So, that’s it from me for this week. I wish you all a successful trading week. And as always…may the Lord be with you, always!
