Yes, I've just constantly been too slow off the mark. Even when you know an opportunity is there, that alone isn't enough to win.superfrank wrote:i suspect that reading this and your earlier post that you're too slow off the mark and not being decisive enough when you see an opportunity (no good waiting for others to confirm it).
also you're deluding yourself if you think you call 90% of the moves right. it might feel like that but i very much doubt it - if you can prove it i'll offer you a job to be my co-trader (50/50 split) - you call the shots and i'll trade them!!
btw, don't use stop losses - they should be called loss bankers.
I do claim to be able to predict most price directions on selected runners. I didn't say 90% though, I claim my prediction rate is around 70-80% accurate on selected favourites.
Yes, the stop-losses have cost me an absolute fortune. I believe that there is clear evidence that people are targetting BetAngel users, you can clearly see massive deliberate spikes in prices at fixed times, often around the 10 minutes mark. I believe scammers are 'sweeping stops' ,and there is a range of other nasty price manipulation tricks going on also.
