I appear to have forgotten what happened in 2015?
API became sticky ~8m out then crumbled in the final few mins before the Grand National.
Shutthefrontdoor was drifting and if I recall £ traded at 1,000 at BSP probably as a result of layers not being able to close.

Think I remember you saying that year you were pretty much all sorted by then as it was so late on.

Last year I got 21/21 winning trades

This year I'm 0/1

Not the best start for me, but a long way to go yet!
Shame they're not running the competition again. Last year I lost all chance after oversleeping, this year I'm 2 from 2 but done little better than break even.
You must have already stopped trading a few mins out or were really confident to post a result a few mins before the off :)

Managed to get a green in the second myself so I'm up and running after that stumbled start
I closed my last trade 3-mins out for a small green and just didn't see or fancy anything else in the market - hope the next is better.

Pretty small fields today, not the perfect set up.

Market suspended 3 times and prices reduced before Verdana Blue was actually pulled out of the market!

I managed a paltry £6 on the third, just couldn't get hold of it.

I done better on it than I did on the 2nd, I just kept chipping away and it did require me trading 4 runners at once, and again had it not been for servants doing there jobs that would have been cut in half at the very least

Y, I did OK, better than I imagined. But it was intense.

7 out of 7, though total profit wasn't great and a change of underpants needed at one point. ;)

I was a bit below where I was expecting, took another loss on the forth then followed that up with my best result of the day so very up and down for me
Hope to settle into a better rhythm tomorrow

Did a quick check on the National runners to see if any of the names are relevant to Brexit (in the hope they might get backed in), but only Exitas (non runner) & Borice (withdrawn) seemed to fit the bill - ah well (
