    That spreadsheet at 1:20 is the most beneficial thing you have ever posted in maybe 100 videos. Fully shows the reality of trading. of course your edge is 15-20+ years worth of trading experience which simply can not be replicated as now you most likely trade on instinct now. I still find the hardest part is not allowing the emotional effect of a bad trade to not effect the rest of the day. No matter how many times you say it in your videos. No matter how many times i tell myself. It is same cycle. Maybe if i spend 10 years of therapy I can change that mindset haha.

      Ultimately it’s a question of funding. The product is free and when we have invested money in upgrading it, we get no new users. So it’s a bit of a catch 22 situation.

    This was also highlighted many years ago on a BBC documentary where they gave a reporter £5k to 'gamble' away and to see if you could actually make money, he met a courtsider to see what it actually involves and he even tried it himself, there was a lot of negativity when the programme was aired saying it was staged because of the lengths the courtsider went through to avoid getting banned at the Tennis events.

      @betangeltv There was a Turkey game a week or so back 'Pendikspor v Antalyaspor' £23k was suddenly matched on the U2.5 goal market @1.64 and within minute or two there was a goal, I don't believe that's all down to coincidence or strategic management

    i actually attempted to courtside for first time last week at a cricket match. I was able to place my position based on the toss 30 mins before game started with intention of trading in-play , using my phone for Internet connection. However, once the game started and the ground filled up (20k), all the bandwidth was sucked and i couldnt connect to internet, leaving me with open position that i could do nothing about. Eventually, i left the game after 6 overs of 2nd innings to take refuge in local bar to find that side i had backed was way ahead of run rate req. at 1.03 and was sitting with a big green ! :) Phew - lucky.
    So, courtsiding is not so simple.

    I’m British but live in Sweden and work as a football data recorder. It’s always amusing to have halftime conversations about my role, the swedes find it very strange
