You asked for constructive criticism, plus my post had no mention of omitting red screens either. At the end of the day people are only ever going to post what they want you to see regardless of what you'd like to see.psychoff wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2019 11:37 amOf course I have losing trades, days, even weeks in loss. The ones I share are the most successful ones. People sometimes ask me why I dont share red screens as well. Have you ever seen Barcelona FC sharing Messi's top 10 misses?spreadbetting wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2019 12:00 am'tJf76 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 8:45 pmThis is my first post on here and it’s great to see Pyschoff posting in here. I’ve started football trading since stumbling across his twitter account and being dumbfounded by the results he had posted on there. my results in the first two months have been more down that up but it’s a learning process, also I’m ‘practising’ in leagues that I’m not overly familiar with and going on pre match and in match stats, rather than watching the game. Looking forward to the major leagues starting again and hopefully seeing an improvement in my results.
Don't want to come across as the voice of doom but when you get people posting their own screenshots purposely omitting the number of markets played don't assume every market is a £20k winner in that 3 month pnl of £300k. I'm sure he may have had a few losers not 15 straight wins

Why even question someone's motives for posting results if they're not selling anything? Who cares, they can be any number of reasons including personal ones that shouldn't be shared. Wasn't Psychoff trading from restricted territories for years before moving to England? It must feel liberating not having to hide everything after so long, I feel that's something that the Brits take for granted.
The closest thing to a criticism that I can think of would be that there should be more disclaimers for all the followers about the risks of this style of trading/betting because people are idiots and they will lose money despite your desire to help them out. I don't think the average Twitter follower even knows what +EV is, wonder how a Twitter poll would look, I can easily imagine them jumping on a few random trades and catching a losing streak and then giving up, missing out on that +EV in the long run.

Thank you, I am 100% agree. Maybe I should warn my followers about the difficulty of trading business more frequently..Kai wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2019 7:28 pmWhy even question someone's motives for posting results if they're not selling anything?

By "here you are" I meant here are his 10, not a serious response. Couldn't help googling it to see if anyone has compiled his misses. Only watched the first few but he appears younger in the ones I saw.
Not familiar with her/him/it but wouldn't surprise me one bit
Nancy might be a top trader idk, but in general I've met quite a few traders who are able to pull off fantastic results with very little knowledge about the markets, it always surprises me how much some people manage to get out from what appears to be a minor edge, they find something that works or their little niche and they'll just scale up right away without caring about anything else.Someone once said that most people probably already know enough to be able to trade profitably, hard to disagree with that one!
