A reflection on the first 20 days of the year

With over 5% of year already over I thought it was time to take stock and have an assessment of how things are going.  The year started with a solid winning day of 4.48 points but then this was followed by 7 losing days out of 8 including some big ones.  In fact on the 9th January I had lost 27% of my betting bank. 

There is no doubt I did some soul searching and reflecting but I checked my calculations and my reasoning and I was happy to continue without any changes.  I am trying to be professional in my thinking and my actions so I have stuck to the plan.

The next 11 days have provided seven winning ones, 3 losing ones and 1 no bet day.  I have I am still in red zone by my bank is down by 9.6% thus I have recovered 17.4% of it in the last week and a bit.  I know there are going to be more losing periods and maybe larger amount but I have to stick to my plans.

The standings of the various systems are as follows:-

System 1: -12.79
System 2: -6.31
System 3: -19.50
System 4: -2.07
System 5: 3.65
System 6: 10.65
System 7: -5.3
System 8: 7.6

5 systems in the red and only 3 in profit.  It would be nice if 5 could be in profit by the end of the month but lets see what the next 11 days bring.
