Planets


First day at work after the weekend and guess what, I did not enjoy it at all.I have made 5 trades which resulted with just over 10% on my stake or £16. Still running in big red for this month -£1659.Tomorrow I have a squash game and will miss most of the games, but hope to catch up with some late games.

Weekends


Today I have made 7 trades as there was not much action on the footy front. Made a profit from them about £20 and my total loss for the month is currently just above £1,700 which I will not cover by the end of the year if all goes well. Now I devoted to withdrawal every day if I have made a profit.

As I mention before the last week was manic. Almost everything I touched when in the red and my mistake was that I chased my losses thats why I ended where I am now. And I should know better! Then another error which I made is not withdrawing on a regular basis.

Downturn


I had a few very bad days which almost wiped me out. It is a kind of a curse when I start a challenge and all goes into tatters. So the challenge £3,000 is over and now I will try to recoup my losses for this month, so will be glad to recoup some of them if any at all. The last two months were so good which made me dream a bit too much so now I am back to reality again :( and no more stupid challenges in future for me.

Challenge £3,000 - Day 3


Today I have made 14 trades which brought back just over 42% back on my stake or £245 - one of my best days for a very long time. I am still minus 9% of my crazy target of £3,000 for this month!

On trade number 13 the internet connection miraculously broke down I was not able to return to action in the next 10 minutes which drove me absolutely mad. Yes it is my own fault that I am still not technically prepared to such situations as they will occur now and again, however my point is that I hate number 13 with passion.It defo brings me bad luck. As I mentioned, yesterday I had a feeling something bad will happen and that was due to the fact that I kept seeing number 13 everywhere. And I was right, the bad thing happened. Today how on earth to explain that my connection broke down exactly on trade number 13!!! Yes I was lucky enough to escape a serious damage (in fact I won) but I shortened my life with a couple of months due to this number which I hate so much!Maybe I go mad but I still hate that number.

Sundays


Today I woke up with the determination to trade after yesterdays horrors show.I went for breakfast in the morning to a friends house and because of that did not trade the first games in the morning.I have been very busy recently because I work during the week and after that I tend to trade in the evenings and weekends which leaves me with no spare time at all.I love trading so I am not complaining, however I am dreading to go to work my normal job tomorrow as simply it does not give me the same pleasure.

I felt very calm yesterday after the big loss which I made (over £600) which got me thinking that this is unusual for me. Probably it is because I have believe in myself and I am able to control my actions more.I am still very chaotic and the target which I set to myself for this month seems ridiculous now.If I trade every day I will have to do £97 a day to be able to reach such a target, saying that I am in the red so it will be even more difficult. But there you go I love to challenge myself!

I had a feeling!


Today I had a feeling that something bad will happen while I am trading...and it did. With one of my first trades and i was in the red. I stayed calm and around evening time I was in the green which made me very happy. And then the final hour came where I lost my entire stake due to stupidity. I lost a chunk of it firstly and then started chasing....why? The annoying part is that I knew I do the wrong thing and despite that I went ahead and lost and the rest of my stake! It happens so often when I start a challenge and all ends in tatters. So day 2 and I am already minus 17% of the £3,000 aim. I will try at least to finish the month in the green.

Pretty women


What is all about pretty women? We (men) all go mad about them and do so silly things just to get their attention ( me for sure). I just cant handle women at all, and the prettier is the woman the more difficult is to handle her! Crazy stuff....anyway
On the trading front I made 6 trades which resulted in around £89 in the green. I would do some experiment this month to see can I reach the £3,000 mark. I will not chase it at all, just want to see how it will go and what percentage if any I would manage to do.I will use stakes between 100 and 500 depends what I can afford.So today on the first day I am currently 3% into my aim, so 97% more with 30 days to go!
