A comedy of errors!

This could easily describe my sub standard activities yesterday, but instead it relates to an incident yesterday evening.

I started trading a race with the urge to visit the loo. The race was a little late getting off, so with the position in reasonable shape I thought I would do a quick sprint to the loo. I promptly kicked the door on my sprint out of the study and smashed my toe against the corner. So instead of some relief, I now found myself on the floor in pain, desperate for the toilet with an open position in the market. What to do? Ease the pain and see if I still have a toe left, get some relief or save a position in the market?

The market won, the pain eased during the process, my toe was just about intact and some needed relief followed.

There are a few lessons in there somewhere!

I left a good job in the consumer technology industry to go a trade on Betfair for a living way back in June 2000. I've been here ever since pushing very boundaries of what's possible on betting exchanges and loved every minute of it.
