Monthly Progress Report October

My monthly progress reports serve a couple of purposes:

The first one, and primary reason for doing them, is that it allows me to see where I have been, where I am going, and where I am falling short in my personal goals.
The second purpose they serve is to let people, new accounts and old, see an honest representation of an account built from scratch and not really knowing anything at all about cryptocurrency.

Monthly Charts and Tables

The Monthly Progress Report Table:

Not a bad month at all. Almost 2000 HP earned for the year so far. Only 342.789 HP to go. It will be a close thing. For the month I increased my Current HP amount by 235.466 HP. A pretty banner month for me, I hope I do as well in November and December. If I do not I do have some Hive-Engine tokens I can sell to make up the short fall.

My curation still is where most of my current earnings are coming from, I just needed two more post and it would be a bit more of a balanced wheel I think. It was nice while we got a few Hive as a reward, but those days are past again, but it was nice.

Monthly Account Growth:

As mentioned above doing pretty good on the climb, slow but steady growth.

Engagement Charts and Tables:

Monthly Replies and Comments

Not a bad month. It did feel like it was going to be a slow month comment and reply wise for me, so I was pleasantly surprised to see I did pretty good.

Since more and more of my rewards are coming through curation it is important to me to try and keep my levels of engagement up.

Monthly Post:

Posting could have been much better, but still 5 a month seems to be my average, perhaps in November I will be able to get a few more post out, it would be nice to get my earnings wheel back closer to thirds than the majority being curation, also more post means I grow closer to my goal.

Daily Comments:

As you can see a few days of nice comment activity, unfortunately there were far to many days less than 10 comments a day. Middle of the month was pretty good, but I started out weak, and finished even weaker. Maybe November will buck the trend, but I do plan on doing some Python Code learning so that will take time from Hive.

Most of October was over the 80 comments a week point, but that slight down turn at the end of the month put me down in the 60 for standing over on the League chart.

The goal here is to reach the bottom layers of the chart, not the top. I float around pretty much in the middle of the road, There are a lot of people that have Asher track their progress via the engagement league. It is a nice tool and totally free service from him here is this weeks link; @abh12345/the-hive-engagement-league-6uv9cv

Conclusion and side notes

I am looking forward to the next spike in Hive. The last couple were nice spikes with only about a 35% to 40% pull back. It was nice to see Hive hold over the $0.70 range, and now to see it creeping into the $0.80 range on occasion.

I continue to increase some of my Hive-Engine holdings via support from Splinterlands. A couple H-E goals were met, and I am closing in on my goal of 150 SPI tokens. I think in the next two weeks I will be able to reach that. I did reach my little side goal of 12 EDSM tokens, and may toward the end of the year have to look at selling some of the EDS tokens they have earned.

My primary objective continues to be my 10,000 HP goal, and support of my Hive goals is why I dabble in H-E tokens. Though so far I have not had to do any major selling for wants or desires this year.

That pretty much concludes the overview of where I am and where I want to be by the end of the year.
