🎯 October at a glance

Strategy October 2026 Growth since 2019 Year-to-date*

SCR-EURAUD -2.1% 🔻 +351% 📈 ≈ +11%

*Sum of monthly returns, January to October 2026.

Both strategies closed October in the red. In the context of their long-term records, though, this is a manageable pullback: each remains well in the green year-to-date, and the long-term growth curves are intact. 💪

🌊 What happened in October

October was a demanding month for the system, particularly its second half. Conditions were choppy, and the pressure built into the final trading day.

⚡ The final trading day. Markets were shaken by news of a major security breach at Binance, reported at $5.57 billion. Volatility spiked across the financial markets, and the system felt it too. This was also where most of the month’s loss was booked.

🛡️ The safety mechanism did its job. The protective layer of the system worked exactly as designed. Positions were closed at the pre-defined loss levels, and nothing got out of control.

A loss that was defined in advance and then taken as planned is not a failure of the system. It is the system doing what it was built to do. ✅

🔍 Under the hood: what drove the result

🔹 SCR-EURAUD (2 trading pairs)

• EURAUD, the engine of this strategy, accounted for about 40% of all trades and tipped the monthly balance to the negative side. 🚂
• AUDCAD was the strongest contributor of the month. 🏆

🔹 SCR-EURAUD_advanced (multi-pair)

• The weakest pairs were GBPCAD, GBPAUD and EURAUD. Together they generated up to 80% of all trading transactions, so their weak month had an outsized effect on the total. 📉
• AUDCAD was again the most profitable pair. 🏆

The takeaway: AUDCAD delivered for both strategies, which shows how diversification across pairs cushions the result, even in a tough month. 🧩

🗓️ A pattern worth noting: the “October effect”

While reviewing the history, we spotted an interesting seasonal tendency in SCR-EURAUD_advanced:

Year 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026

October -1.9% -0.3% -1.5% -1.4% -0.3% -0.0% +1.9% -4.5%

Out of eight Octobers, seven were negative or flat. Most were mild, typically around -1%, and this year’s was the deepest. 🍂

A few points for perspective:

• It is a statistical observation, not a forecast. We treat it as useful context and not as a trading signal.
• Past Octobers were all followed by recoveries. November has been positive in most years, and the long-term curve has kept climbing. 📈
• SCR-EURAUD tells a different story: its previous seven Octobers were all positive (+1.3% to +5.5%). So October 2026 is an exception for this strategy, not a rule.

🧭 Plan for November

✅ Continue trading in the current mode. There is no evidence that the logic of the system needs to be changed.

🕐 Account for the broker server-time change. Many brokers are moving to winter server time, and we are adjusting for this so that session-based logic stays properly aligned.

🔒 Risk management stays unchanged. It worked as intended in October.

A modest, controlled drawdown is a normal cost of running a systematic strategy over the long term, and October’s loss is well within that range. We stay disciplined and keep working. 🚀

💬 Final thoughts

Every systematic strategy has months like this. What matters is how the system behaves in them: risk was contained, protection triggered as designed, and the core edge is untouched. 🙌

Thank you for your trust and patience. See you in the November report! 🍀
