Day 23 (Project day 31)


Disaster. I didn't realise how close to the off it was while I was trading. When I realised, I paniced and tried to cancel a bet. At the same time I pressed the hedge button. Net result, a lay bet with a liability of €99.43.


To say the horse romped home is an under statement. I am not back to square one, I am at square -1.


I don't feel emotional about the mistake. I am not angry, I didn't yell, I accepted I made a mistake. This gives me heart. I am going to stop for tonight and watch some telly.


I will start again tomorrow (hopefully, NTL are installing 3Mb broadband tomorrow, hopefully it works.)


Again this is a setback, it may affect the timelines, but i have faith that i will succeed with this. When I do, the taste will be so sweet.
