Morning Karmacat,

Hope that you managed to get some sleep despite the lateness when you got home.

What is the papertrading? Sounds very interesting and also by the looks of your posts it's definately well worth you doing it.

Tea

Hiya! The papertrading is about financial spreadbetting - legally, its a form of betting, so of course its not moneysaving in its purest form. Papertrading is practising doing it - there's lots of courses you can go on to learn when to stick your oar in, and I've been on quite a few of them, especially when I was rich, before business fell off.

The scary thing is doing it for real, and these bonuses that have been on offer in recent months have started to get me over that - £100 from NatWest in August, and now £75 from tradefair. People do it just for the bonuses of course, on the Gambling Introductory Offers Loopholes board, on here, but I'm doing it cos I want to spread bet regularly - and each one I've done to get the bonus money, I've made a (very small) profit. Which is encouraging! Now its just a case of doing it regularly for real, and building up my confidence further.

The papertrading shows me I can make money, as I've been studying and practising for years (literally years.... ). I won't go into more detail than that, its a very personal thing on risk assessment to go into, and its probably against site rules anyway.

Sorry this goes on for so long!

Aren't you people just the best? Thank you once again!

The m.b.ing can be scary, can't it. I've usually done it 3 days in advance, so that I can go back to it the next day, check it out afresh, and if I'd made a mistake, there's plenty of time to correct it. With the spreads, there's no time lag at all, and it can go like a rocket. When I posted yesterday about the first trade, the currency pair I look at moved, after a signal on my system, by 40 points in literally 3 minutes. Quite a lot of money is involved there!

This evening, I went out to do those dreadfully difficult mystery shops that involve buying a bottle of wine twice that sorts a couple of evenings where I need to bring a bottle, and little tiny payments, so I'm happy, but I haven't inputted them yet, and I'm shattered. Still, it doesn't say 24 hours inputting limit, so I better do it tonight.

So I better go - have a good evening all (oops, just seen the time, whats left of it).

Morning! Going to be a quiet day today for me, I think. My kitchen really does look like a bomb went off - between the washing up, the basil plants that need to be pruned, the bags I've dumped on the way in from mystery shopping yesterday, and bits left over from three-quarters finished tidying up - yep, its a kitchen day today, and I have a supermarket order coming in.

I think I'll be doing a supermarket order every few months .... I don't mind bringing home the fresh veg regularly, but I just can't bear to do staples shopping by hand. Without a car, it means carrying it, and I remember before supermarket deliveries got started, how *poor* that made me feel. Paying out for a delivery every so often is money well spent if it means I don't feel like that (or not about that, anyway ).

Otherwise - surveys, clicks, posting on bingoport, is the dfw stuff I'll be doing, and thats about it, definitely got to be mindless today - after all, I actually finished inputting those mystery shops just before midnight last night! Wasn't my favourite way to spend Saturday night, but the hourly rate was the same as my usual awful m.s. minimum, and I did also get two bottles of wine out of it
