No losing days this past week. October overall was a bad month. Started with some kind of losing streak were the first 4 days of the month were all (big) losers. I reviewed my entry and exit strategy and switched to a broker that suits better with my trading style. The numbers below say enough about the bad risk/reward, but I see some improvements, clearly in the results of last week and I'm confident that November will be a much better month. .......................................................................................
