I really don't know where to begin to describe this month. Yet it's probably safe to say that I'll never see another month like this as long as I live. Never. It was a career record month in many respects, including my largest single-day draw (before I got used to the “new market”), most number of days > +$20K (nine), and largest total net of $318K. There's also probably a record in there somewhere for the most hours of sleep lost, but I don't track that.

And the truth is, I made a lot of mistakes—two significant ones come to mind—and those errors are the only elements of October that I'm going to take with me into November. By the way, if you're looking over my shoulder, there can't be stronger evidence that this business and life are about overcoming mistakes. Make a mistake? Get over it and keep moving (yes, I'm shouting). There's a reason we've been given a world of tomorrows. For despite the industry hype to the contrary, profitable traders make plenty of mistakes, and if making that point is the only purpose sharing this journal serves, it will have been worth the effort.

I'm not sure what else to say. All I know is that October is officially history, no longer matters, and the new game starts on Monday. The 2008 final table.

Two more months of tunneling to the surface before this year's game ends and countless opportunities for continual self-improvement. The self-improvement game will, of course, never stop . . . even after December 31.

So, we're once again back to square one with the only chart that matters:
