Matched Betting led me to learning Forex.
Matched Betting was good to me for a long time and I still have a bet here and there as I enjoy it but i don’t believe it is viable financial income long term.
It was through matched betting circles that I was introduced to forex and saw the potential and scalability once the skills were mastered.
Both MB and Fx have enabled me to work part time after maternity leave ended and not return full time, ultimately I aim to be financially secure enough from trading to step away from the part time work as well.

Ah thats cool my partner used to do matched betting, he still works for a forum that helps people with it now! Forex is great for that i no longer have to work full time either which is brilliant.

Earning Extra money is the reason for many one. Because it is the business which we can do anytime and from anywhere.

yes it is too much easy to kick off this business from any place including low amount , but the main problem is to keep survive continuously which is really difficult in practical.

What a lovely comment!
Exactly that’s the beauty of it.
i love mind games and puzzles, that’s where i got my motivation to start trading. had a friend who already was trading for quite a while, ask him for help and there i was 3 months later trading on a live account.

when learning it is not appropriate to hurry , to be experienced is a long time approach by learning , so keep cool always and learning slowly , actually any valuable thing cannot achieve very rapidly,

I started trading shares back in the tech bubble in 1998-1999. It was ridiculously easy and though it was an obvious bubble, I didn’t realise that when the bubble burst everything would go down with the tech stocks. After 3 years of trying to buy shares in a falling and volatile market I set up a spreadbetting account (I’m in the UK) so I could go short as easily as long on large-cap stocks. Forex was a natural progression from there. Still seeking improvement and development of course. Can’t understand why I don’t have a Lexus parked outside…
