Emotions & Yesterday's results

Although I have kept records for a  few months, they have been recorded in what I call a 'jotter pad', everything is there, just not that easy to analyse.
From the 24/09 I have recorded everything.   Initially in the 'jotter pad', but the morning after I up-date a detailed spreadsheet.
For some reason I had come to the conclusion that earnings would be smooth.....

  • Week 1     +£1605   I did a little dance that Sunday.  I multiplied this by 4 and estimated a steady £6k a month, easy.....
  • Week 2    +£33
  • Week 3    +52
  • Week 4   -£192
  • Week 5   + £1227
  • Week 6    - £551  and that was after being £1000 up on the Friday.  -£1600 on the Saturday and Sunday.
I followed the tipsters exactly the same each day. Not exactly a smooth ride.

I cope (just) by looking at the long term results and if I dig deep I know that I will have great months and poor months but overall, if the past is at least some guide to the future I should make money over a longer period.

I am also relieved that after 6 weeks that I am £2175 in profit and not an overall loss.  That is less fees of nearly £600.   I cannot live off that return, but I do hope that the average earning per month will increase and I know over time I can get the subscription costs down by speaking to the vendors and negotiations a long term package.

What I will say is that I did hit a new profit high of £3800 before I received the big punch on the nose over the weekend.   The data within the sheet is too limited for now to draw any conclusion but over time I hope to make decisions based on the information recorded.   It's data in the real world, to the best of my ability.  

Anyway, to move on to the results;

CD Probet    -1 pt
CD Bargain  +9 pts (a win was due:-)
Sportyy  -2 pt
Tennis Desire + 0.17 pts  (this would have been a negative but the last tip duplicated the Sportty selection so I did not place it).  
CD Football + 0.64 pts
ZH Banker -2pts
50/50 service +0.77 pt.
WRS - 1pt (NH)
Proball Tennis -1 pt
Proball DC +0.5 pt
Proball LTD I did not place the bet as the odds were near to 10, way to high for me on a LTD
Proball Horses (lay) + 0.23 pt
Probandit Hybrid, -6.16 pts
AHC +0.8 pt
Fav Lays -2.87 pts

Overall loss for the day -£106.65
