Round 3 : Week 34 Day 2 Trade Log
Tuesday, 29 April 2014
Round 3 : Week 34 Day 1 Trade Log
My trade log in the new format posted last week did not include my running profit and loss (currently -£8,362.83), so the total running PnL was not correct. Apologies about this, I asked Codefunc to add a record for the running PnL to my portfolio which they have now done, and the running PnL is now correct.
As you can see, times are tough!
I will as promised blog about where things went wrong (the wheels funnily enough fell off around the same time as my Excel workbook crashing - go figure!)

Round 3 : Week 33 Day 2 Trade Log
After more than three weeks of no trade logs, I have one from yesterday. This in the new format that I get from the sprdTrade app. I am not sure why the cell border colours in the table below are not all black (because they are in the email I get at the end of each day - I will ask the clever guys at Codefunc where the app was developed)
As you will see, I am also playing around with the look and feel of my blog and want to make it cleaner and crisper (basically) so please bear with me through these changes!
You will also notice that my PnL has decreased quite a bit since my last post. I have had some very black days in April and will post more about these soon.
Hope you are all well and are having more luck with the markets than I am at the moment!

I'm back !!!!
Firstly, a huge apology for the radio silence over the last 2 weeks.
As my regular readers will know, I have been having endless trouble with my Excel workbook that I use to track my bets. It has been playing up for about a year now and has finally packed it in, and pretty much given up working completely. While that is bad news - there is a bright side! If you don’t know already, I have had an app developed that replicates all the functionality of the Excel workbook, and will be much more stable, easier to use and apps are pretty cool anyway!
The ‘Excel breaking episode’ has forced me to test the app (which Jonathan Walker from Codefunc, the guys who developed this app has been asking me to do for over 2 months now). They have now pressured me into a release date; Tuesday next week (22 April), straight after Easter Weekend. I have scheduled in as much testing as is required over the next three days to ensure the app functions as expected, so far from what I have seen it looks great!
Have a look at sprdTrade for a sneak preview.
Please also check out Codefunc if you need any kind of software development work done.
Codefunc is run by a guy I used to work with; Jonathan Walker. Codefunc were great the whole way through developing this app, (and not just because I know the owner), they really were fantastic.
They are based in South Africa, but they could have been down the road in London; we used Skype, Google Hangouts, and Dropbox a lot, and the whole development process was seamless, productive, and to be honest - quiet fun!
So watch this space for some very exciting things coming soon!
