21 yr old looking for all round advice
It would have been better for me if id have never started trying to trade sports markets in the first place, It was an emotional journey for me as a friend of mine who i played football with was genuinely making decent profit on bet angel and when he did show me his p+l it got me hooked , I had a potential mentor to show me the ropes but sadly shortly after passed away suddenly, Here i am 10 years later, 10 Bet angel subscriptions later , I firmly believe ive digested every resource available to learn this over that time, Paid for online courses etc , Lost unfathomable amounts of time staring at ladders, and i still cant find an edge in the markets. Yet despite this its not unheard of for someone to get the hang of it and start turning a profit in a few months.

I dont think theres any conspiracy to all of this as is potentially being suggested. My point was more around its future with greyhound racing in turmoil and horse racing in decline, especially on the less major events. What this could look like by you find an edge is anybodys guess. However, it is a discredit to the people who have, and are currently, doing this profitably to call it a conspiracy or anything along those lines.
How about you take you own advice.Safeway wrote: ↑Fri Jan 16, 2026 9:14 pmI sympathise with the difficulties which you have experienced. I cannot do pre-race trading (like nearly everybody) and the ladder doesn't fit my way of looking at things. I have received no benefit whatsoever from viewing videos from BA or any other source.
There is too much talk on this forum likening financial trading with sports trading (betting.) There is no similarity between the two except that they are both ways for most people to lose money. James makes a good point asking why you want do do this. If your experience is financials why not stick to that and stop coming on here with your pompous, grumpy posts?
