Are you taking you temp at the same time each day? You have a lot of open circles, which suggest either you waking time is varying alot, or you are checking "sleep deprived". I've noticed with my temping that 30min either side of my normal wake up time makes a difference.
Your last cycle looks annovulatory and it looks like you haven't ovulated yet this cycle either. I can't see your first month. Have you been able to work out other fertile signs, like CM?
I recommend you do the free course FF has - it makes a big difference to understanding. I don't think another system would make any difference if you vary your waking times alot - you'd find the same thing if you did it mannually.
It can be frustrating when you're first learning all this. Persisting will help. If it does turn out your cycles are annovulatory, your charts will help doctors know what's going on.

Also I found when I was using FF that taking my temp vaginally made a massive difference and was much more accurate than when I first started doing it orally

yer i wake up at dif times but i do try wake up the same time everyday but its really hard when my shifts r totally dif everyday. some mornings i have to wake up at 5am when other days i dnt start work til later n get more of a sleep in.
i was told there is a website that u can go to n type in the time u woke up n the temp u got n it will convert it to wat it thinks the average temp would be but no1 seems to no the website.

Lozza,
Go to google, search the web (not just australia) with 'BBT temperature adjustor', the first one that comes up does it!!
hope that helps!!

FF also has a temp&time convertor built into it. I used it often when I either woke early or late

From what I can see last month's cycle (started 10 September) was annovulatory and this cycle's data is erratic (with different waking times and open circles etc) it really is hard to interpret.
I will put your chart on my favourites and try to remember to check it in a few days to see if I can tell anything else from it  it can be so hard to interpret charts etc I hope yours shows something soon

ok not sure if ive done the right thing or not but if i havent ive written down the info so i can change it all bak... but i used a temp adjuster so all at the right time.. changed the temps on FF so they were the adjusted temps n then changed all the times so they were at the right time.
let me no if that was a big no no or the right thing.. just so i no if i should change it all bak or not
thanks

I did a similar thing when I was using FF and with a few more days data it showed me ovulation. FF might be able to process things better now it has more 'consistent' data
