OK, \u00a31.76 may not seem a great deal of money, but remember we are starting with a trading stake of only \u00a310. This means that on day one we achieved a return on our stake of 17.60%. We can now raise our stakes to the grand sum of \u00a311.76 for day two. I have included the full P&L so you can see how we made our \u00a31.76. Lots of little amounts, but they eventually all add up to our final profit and that is the essentially the essense of trading.<\/p>\n

For a supposed quality meeting it was very dissapointing, if there was one more race you wondered whether they may come out with a 1 runner race!<\/p>\n
