Lucky Luke, buying something for £2 and selling it for £220 isn't luck. It's research and moving one foot in front of the other lol
Can you not apply the same level of research, and effort of moving one foot in front of the other to trading, instead of asking the forum to do your research and move your feet for you?
I am, I have watched around a hundred videos and about 90% of Caan Barry's book.

What is?

I know someone who bought a WW2 fighter pilot leg watch for £20 and sold it for £8,000.

When fighter pilots were flying they had a watch that was attached to the top of their thigh that they would look down on when they need to look at the time.

That's not an effort because you're not taking anything in, you forget everything as soon as you've read it. And you're not moving one foot in front of the other, your posting to the forum and asking us where you should place your foot for each step!

Having left the thread about 150 pages ago I thought I would check in. It's got quite surreal.

This is my view at the moment. I have read stories of current pro's who started out by losing a lot of money. I am trying avoid that. People told me about calculating Expected Value but no-one seems to actually do it. It's a concept of looking for value which is obvious. I am trading on an almost daily basis - it doesn't help when I can't watch the matches unless I go the pub.

There are some great people on here and I am very thankful to them.

That must have been handy when it was time for lunch.

I find this thread useful. Only because of Luke's dumb questions :)). I learned a lot from some answers of you.

I think quite a few of us have learned something or other from this and similar threads from Luke

Maybe some have missed this little detail but Luke wasn't trying to be funny here, it was someone else. That's what you get when you try to type in his name on the forum or in a PM :)
