Positive start
I didn’t expect Goodwood to be that easy and it wasn’t. But thanks to my preparation I did get off to a good start on the week. In fact I managed a clean sweep on all the races yesterday. Which meant, after carrying over races from Monday, I am entering today on 43 winning races in a row! While a run like that sounds great, it’s not. It just adds pressure to perform on the next race and you end up being cautious. Sometimes caution is not the right strategy. If you look closer at yesterday, I did manage a 30p and 34p race, not exactly impressive but a positive none the less. You need a bit of luck to put a run together and both those races involved a huge slice to get them positive before the off.
This morning I am sifting through all the data I collected yesterday to see what I can learn from it. If you are active in the market and put a lot of orders through, its often worth spend an hour or so doing this. It can tell you a lot about how the market is acting. I run a spreadsheet which acts as my gatherer of ‘control’ data and I match the two and analyse my performance against what is happening in the market in general. It can give you some great insights. Incidentally my control spreadsheet, which trades at random, put through just over £2k yesterday, it lost on £8. Hidden in that stat is a very clear message for all market participants.
I don’t have particularly high expectations for today, but that’s usually a sensible approach. It makes any expectations much easier to beat! I’m actually feel a bit poorly today, so I may not be on my best form. I think I may be burning out a bit after a really busy summer, so I definitely think an enforced break may be on the cards! I’ve been keen to chase down some really long term targets this year but I think I have been pushing myself a little hard.
I hope you had a positive start and with at least a couple of additional cards on this afternoon hopefully you can find something in the markets.
