October will be my third consecutive losing month. I haven't had three consecutive losing months in the last four years, and that's just as far back as I looked. I probably haven't had three losing months in a row in a decade.
It's really difficult to put my finger on what exactly is the problem. Frankly, the only thing I do differently now is that I don't read daily market wraps anymore and I don't keep a daily market diary, just a weekly one.
