I wouldnt have much faith in what folks post online regarding profitability. Any photo or video can be edited to show anything. Most are trying to sell something at the end of the day
do you follow anyone profitable on twitter ?

It's a strange phenomenon, you don't find many plumbers on Twitter posting big invoices. Everyone I know personally who does well just quietly get on with the job so it's either sales or ego and I don't have the time for either.

on twitter and in many other media
you can find willing experts to help you with their knowledge about any subject
Tend to agree although there will be the odd successful one who is happy to share P/L or their tips. It's very hard to confirm who is profitable though, I recently met a successful trader who told me he has had losing quarters in the past, so seeing the odd daily P+L doesn't say much by itself. Personally I play down my profits if anyone asksShaunWhite wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 4:30 pmIt's a strange phenomenon, you don't find many plumbers on Twitter posting big invoices.

I'm not sure I would discover Betfair if one of CB's videos didn't somehow pop up on my Youtube to introduce the concept, during my very short betting phase.
That's why I don't usually mind people promoting BF stuff and bringing in some much needed liquidity, as long as it's not an outright scam they do provide some value to someone out there.
No real negativity intended in any of my comments or memes etc, all just light-hearted stuff, even if it can at times be construed differently, which I rarely realize at first!

I've ever seen an expert in any other subject using income as credentials. I'd always choose someone with peer and industry respect over the latest Jack the lad.MakeThat$$$ wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 4:43 pmactuallu they doShaunWhite wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 4:30 pm[

But the best thing to do is make real world connections, it's far more rewarding in every way.

Beware of anybody sharing P&Ls, particularly if just a few dozen results. With natural variance I could demonstrate the same with coin tosses if I could pick and choose what period to show.Anix015 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 12:42 pmmaybe because it records live trades and shows p&l , or even that is not enough, you have to go directly to his house to make sure if he is profitable

Ask them to share their all-time Betfair P&L. Even then, there's nothing to say that the method they are demonstrating is the same method that is driving their profit. Ask yourself why they are sharing their method if it's profitable?!

Bit of a bizzare thread!
Who knew this topic would bring about polarized opinions
Many a shot was fired, in multiple directions, I think one randomly whizzed past my ear and somehow hit alexmr2 (?!), let's just hope nobody was gravely wounded as a result of people firing blanks!
But jokes aside, I will say this when it comes to influencers in general, good or bad, by all means learn what you can from others but make sure your journey is your own
