I would like to privately speak to someone from bet angel managment or someone with a lot of experience about how i'm making profit, i have been in profit everyday for the last month and things are going really well, and its easy, but i have never seen this method mentioned anywhere. I really want to know if its commonly used and if it's even classed as an edge.
If your happy to talk to me about it and your a horse trader please pm me, i'll know who's an expert and whos just after my method.

Cheers

If you have found an edge why speak to anyone. I have been trading for 6 months or so and still cant find anything that I really can get on with and make consistant profit having tried more or less everything. I like the horse trading markets and am currently working on numerous things and I can only hope that one day I find a method like yours. Just enjoy it. Happy trading!

you'll know who's an expert?? but you can not define what an edge is. Isn't that a bit contradictory?
A few years ago I introduced smb to trading. He put 30pounds into his bf account. Believe it or not in about 3weeks he made 3k just by laying horses. But then in one week lost it all. He's not "trading" now.
You will see it for yourself if it's an edge or not. Time will show.

If your making a profit just shut up about it and get on with it. Who cares wether you have an edge or not. I certainly don't.

If your still using that crazy reverse martingale as when you posted as "frustrated" my guess is your gonna crash and burn in the most spectacular style ever seen in these here parts.

My advice to any aspiring trader is ignore the "I have cracked it and have found the holy grail" type posts. Looking for an edge is BS. Trust me there are cleverer people around with huge resources looking for an "edge". Let them get on with that.

Learn the basics.
Good discipline
Money management - match your strike rate to the odds taken and the size of your bank. You wouldn't use the same stake on a 1.3 shot as a 9.8 shot would you?
Manage your expectations
Gain an understanding of the market your trading and how it behaves and why.
Have an entrance and exit strategy and a reason to enter the trade.

Once you master these your over half way there. Edges come and go. The skills of trading are always relevant.

That advice is free, No charge, Gratis

I'm sorry about this, but I'm going to be slightly confrontational

Why would you want to speak to BA management about your edge? If you have discovered a winning strategy then keep it to yourself, why the heck would you share it? Before long, you'll either have your edge eradicated by BF's PC, or there will be too many other people using your nuggets of gold, and that will also ruin the strategy

My guess is you're a bullshitter, who simply wants to sell a strategy to desperate newcomers. You're hoping that will make you more money than simply operating the system yourself

Top post, i have seen so many adverts like the betting selling systems poping up all over the place but trading lessons at £300+ ago. Trading takes years to master

You are so wrong, i dont want to sell anything, i'm very happy with what i'm doing, it just seems different, maybe thats why it works, look i'm sure that the ba team either no of this because it works, or because it doesn't if it doesn;t i'll be back to the drawing board and i'll be back on here asking questions. Thinking about it mugs is right, just shut your mouth and get on with it.
