It will be interesting to see how XJO behaves around ~3220.
XJO

A more substantial sell signal given yesterday as XJO broke down through a triangle formation. Should terminate ~ 3210. XJO

Hi folks,

Here's why, being short on the indices may well
be injurious to you wealth, no matter what the
gurus may say:

"05-08052006 ... should be positive cycle for DOW"

..... DOW up + 138 points ..... and a new high(?)

Quote above was taken post, above.

-----

So, why did the shorts get it wrong this time ...???

Simply, it was not TIME to go short ..... !~!

This means, that despite all their EW analysis,
there was an important factor that was overlooked.

While EW may be a guide to how the market is
unfolding, it has a fundamental flaw ... that is, if we
take 100 EW exponents and compare their analysis,
we will likely come up with almost as many opinions
about the wave count ..... that's because, very few
of them can agree, even about WHERE TO START
their wave count !~!

-----

So, to prove the validity of their analysis, another
INDEPENDENT means of evaluation is needed, to either
provide confirmation or render their findings invalid.

One area that most chartists ignore is the TIME axis
on our charts, yet TIME being constant, it is much
EASIER to evaluate, than the variable PRICE axis .....

..... and believe it, TIME CYCLE analysis thrives on
the KISS principle.

Earlier in this thread, the Fibonacci sequence was mentioned
and it is often associated with EW, as sometimes the
waves fall into line, with the projected Fibo numbers.

Now, Fibo numbers are part of a natural sequence, accredited
to Fibonacci, but known and recognised by the Pythagorean
Jews, with their "Harmony of the Spheres." ie ... they knew
about the relationship between the orbit of Earth and Venus.

A ratio, that has been in existence for millions of years,
circulating right above our heads and a ratio, that not even
GWB can change ..... :-)

Just as the Fibo sequence can be used on the PRICE axis,
so too it can be used to analyze the constant TIME, with
projections from previous highs and lows to key dates
ahead, where there may be a breakout, pause or reversal
in the market being evaluated.

-----

Key dates below were NOT derived using the Fibo sequence.
Instead, our TIME cycle analysis is derived by using Gann's
astrotools and an ephemeris. Very SIMPLE stuff, it is too ... :-)

Skeptix say, "its not possible" ... but so far, as per the
post above, scoreboard favours the astrotraders ..... :-)

... let's see how the rest of it unfolds, over the coming weeks.

We should also invite the skeptix to post their own take on
the DOW and XJO, for the same dates .....

..... it just won't happen !~!

-----

In summary, ignoring the TIME axis on our charts, means
that we are using less than 50% of the information, that
any chart has to offer ..... :-)

have a great weekend

yogi

Posted 10052006:

Hi folks,

As targeted, in our 07042006 post:

XJO ... today, we reached out 5386 target
from 13 March 2003 lows, at 2693 ..... :-)

Actual high today has been 5406, but it very
quickly pulled back to trade around our 5386
target ..... so, we have seen this market
DOUBLE in value in 1155 days.

=====

Expecting a strong DOW on both Thursday and
Friday this week, however XJO may not perform
as well, as we look for XJO to trade flat-to-down (?),
then rally again around 18052006.

Next XJO high will likely be about 24-25052006
and then, 26-29052006 will likely see our first taste
of a retreat from the highs(???), ahead of our next
critical day for world events ..... 07-08 June 2006 (???)

-----

Today 10052006, is also exactly 180 days ahead
of our target low, on 07 November 2006 ... ???

Let's see, how this lot unfolds.

happy trading

yogi

P.S. ..... more about the similarities,between 1987 and 2006, later.

[QUOTE=yogi-in-oz] :-)

Posted 12 March 2006:

Warning ..... astrostuff ahead:

Leaving aside the terrorists' propaganda, it has become
apparent, that they do seem to have a rhythm in their
attacks.

For example, the London bombings came 1000 days after
the Bali bombing, on 12th October 2002.

Some will say that is just coincidence and that's fine,
believe what you will, but be sure to be watching the
dates below for other big world events ..... not
necessarily terrorist related.

-----

08 June 2006 ..... Saturn transiting USA’s natal North Node
will likely see a drain on speculative markets.

We will be monitoring the money markets, at this time, as
well as XJO for another slide.

-----

yogi

:-)

[/QUOTE]

Hi folks,

So much for the skeptix who tipped the bucket on
us, after that post, above.

Now in this thread on 30 April 2006, we forecast last week's
slide in XJO from our astroanalysis and a critical time
cycle from the Bali bombing in October 2002 .....

..... and what happened this week ???

We get news of 17 terrorists arrested in Canada and
Al-zaqhawi killed in Iraq ..... two prominent terrorist-
related events, that supports our theory of some
regular time cycles in terrorist activity.

-----

So, what's ahead .... stay tuned, because we figure there
will be some huge world events this month, not necessarily
terrorists, between 14062006 and 30062006 ... in particular,
be watching on latitude 19 degrees North, (GOM???),
around 24 June 2006 ... and there's lots more as well ... :-)

...... POO down on 15-16062006 ???

More later .....

have a great weekend

yogi

P.S. ..... 7 November also marked lows,
in 1978 and 1979 ..... :-)

Hi folks,

North Korea tests 3 missiles .....

..... a little later than expected, but that may
have been to gain some psychological advantage,
in having total disregard for the US 04 July holiday.

XJO cycles and world events ..... :-)

xjocyclesjune2006.pdf (369.5 k)

Testing also came, on the current Mercury retrograde
station, which will keep us alert for much misinformation
being reported about this issue.

happy days

P.S. ..... file above was posted on 11 June 2006 and
provided our astroanalysis, leading into
this event.

Warning: ... astrostuff ahead.

Hi folks,

Some astroanalysis for DOW and XJO for April and May 2007:

DOW in April 07 ... an underlying difficult cycle for
the DOW, until the end of April 07, with negative
news coming in 20042007 ... watching longitudes
15 West, 138 East and 101 West ... (windy weather???)

25-26042007 ... more difficult times for DOW here,
possibly triggered by aggression or violence .....
another war ... perhaps???

26-30042007 ... likely to be VERY negative for
Aussie XJO market, too ...

04-07052007 ... should see a positive DOW.

18-21052007 ... minor DOW cycle ...

23052007 ... significant DOW move ... looking
currency trigger here ...(???)

18-28052007 ... 2 conflicting cycles for Aussie XJO
will have us looking for some extreme volatility, in
this period of time.

28052007-05062007 ... may be particularly negative
for DOW, as well.

06-07062007 ... Aussie XJO should be positive,
but will likely fade badly, from late-07062007 and
into 08062007 is likely to be very negative, again.

happy trading

Hi folks,

Continuuing on, from post above .....

..... this is simply posted to remind traders using Gann's
astrostuff, that 09-10122007 will likely be important to
watch for a significant swing point (low?) ... nothing more.

-----

... if you are to use a GEOCENTRIC ephemeris, then
Pluto and Jupiter will be conjunct on 09-10122007 at
28 degrees Sagittarius and less than 2 degrees from
Galactic Centre.

(For those into Bible Astrology ... Galactic Centre has
been linked to the lives of the Pope's ... just take a
look at when the last Pope was taken to hospital ...
... Mar's was transiting Galactic Centre ... !~!)

-----

Let's just clarify the difference between Gann's astrostuff
and personal astrology that we all see in the newspapers,
as they are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT approaches.

Firstly, the rubbish that you read in newspapers only
started to appear at the depths of the depression in 1931,
to help sell newspapers ... and it is still used most effectively
for that same purpose ... but, it is made up TOTALLY of
MAN-MADE interpretations ... and who would place
creedence in ANY man's views ... ???

-----

Gann's astrostuff is based on very accurate & God-given,
planetary movements, that have been in force MILLIONS
of years ... in reallity, the planets of our solar system are
really a cosmic clock, that NO MAN can CHANGE ... !~!

In proper financial astrology, there's NO MAN-MADE
interpretations involved ... instead, we only use VERY
SIMPLE mathematics and geometry, from the Pythagorean
schools .... all stuff that is evident in the Bible, too ... and
for more info, read Pythagoras' "Music of the Spheres."

In fact, the ONLY book, where Gann wrote about his
astrotools is TTTTA and in it, he used more than 150
Bible quotes ... and he did not put them there for NO
reason ....

Dan Brown, eat your heart out ... Sepharial and Gann
beat you to the punch, but only by about 80 years ...

For those interested in the links to the Bible, you may
also wish to read as much of Sepharial's work as you
can muster, particularly Sepharial's books on Gann's
own reading list, like "Cosmic Symbolism" for example.

"Bible Astrology" by Lyman Stowe is also another
interesting read, as well ...

-----

Just want to share Gann's Mechanical Stuff .....
...... as a backup our astrotools:

(To keep the calculations ahead simple, we employ a
factor of +/- 1 day, at the target dates. It IS possible
to be more accurate, but it requires considerably
more complex calculations and that effort is unlikely
to be substantially rewarded. )

Okay ... so, let's put the bulk of the planetary stuff aside
and just consider something, we all know as accepted
fact ... the APPARENT movement of our Sun or Earth's
360 degree orbit around the Sun, in 365.25 days.

XJO ... 13 March 2003 = 2693 and XJO market low

XJO ... 10 May 2005 = pullback low

XJO ... 09 May 2006 = high in 1H 2006 = 5406 and
1154 days from 13032003 low. If we project
a 50% (577 days) Gann time factor, from
09052006, ahead ... 1154 +577 = 1732
13032003 + 1732 days = 09-10122007 and
exactly the time of the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction !~!

XJO ... 10 November 2006 = Sun is 180 degree or
DIRECTLY OPPOSITE to position, on 09 May 2006
and market breaks above 5406, after a pullback
over the past 6 months.

XJO ... 09 May 2007 = 6382 ... so far the market high
for 2007 and 1518 days out from 13032003 low.

6382 being just 4 points shy of 1000 points beyond
another milestone, that we also forecast, using
Gann's work ... XJO = 5386

XJO 5386 was reached on 10052006 (surprise !~!)
... high 5406 and closed at 5352.

5386 was DOUBLE the 13032003 low ... and
it took another 180 degrees movent of our Sun,
before the market would recover and break above
that critical level ... !~!

So, what now Gannsters ... ???

If we consider the nearby astrostuff for XJO, we
will likely see our market, trade strongly especially
on 06-07 June 2007 ... testing the highs ???

08 June 2007 ... expecting a significant negative
cycle to hit XJO .....

... and 180 solar days later, a positive cycle is
expected for XJO, right when our significant astro
-event comes into play ... 09-10 December 2007 !~!

Now, not only do we have Gann's astrotools pointing to
that event, we also have some simple mechanical tools
pointing to that time-frame, as well ..... that's two
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT approaches in our analysis !~!

If the expected rally, in early June fails to make any
significant gains, then the uncertainty ahead of the
coming Aussie elections may be enough to drive the
markets down ... having said that, we fully expect
mid-October 2007 to produce a rally, just as we
had in February 2007, though it may be short-lived,
with another negative cycle coming in, at the end
of October 2007.

happy days

paul

Good morning Paul
I find your entry very interesting.
I have not done any work in this area before however I am very interested. Would you please be able to give me some hints as to where the best place would be for me to begin.

Hi Helen,

To get started on Gann's work generally, just
punch W D Gann into google and a MOUNTAIN of
information will be returned ... !~!

Understanding Gann's astrostuff will take a lot
more effort, but a good place to start is ANY
of Sepharial's books, but particularly those
detailed on Gann's own reading list, like
"Cosmic Symbolism."

Of course, Gann also wrote about his astrostuff, in his
1927 novel, "The Tunnel thru the Air" (TTTTA), but his
methods were all cleverly encoded in that book and hence,
it can take a long time to decipher more than 150 Bible
references, that Gann used in TTTTA ..... and there's no
need to buy TTTTA, as there's usually easy access to it,
through the library system.

Other essential reading is anything about Pythagorean
"Music of the Spheres" Theory ... !~!

Hope this helps you some ... :-)

have a great day

Hi Yogi...Your Astro-analysis and Gann timings on the XJO are welcomed, always good reading, often "spot-on" and are usually easy to follow. However, I do have a couple of questions re your 21st Of May, 2007 posting though and they are:-

1/. ...What is your significance of the 10 May 2005 pullback(or should that be the 5 May 2005 low?)as your ongoing analysis mostly revolved around that date and the important swing low of the 13 March 2003?...and,

2/. ...Given that we have taken out the 9/10 May 2007 and 06/07 June 2007 timing highs before time(180 degrees) would you favour that your "end of October negative cycle" may result in a pullback to the 6382-6406 (timing date)levels by, say, the significant 09-10 December 2007 Astro-event day?

Thanks, again, for your regular and informative inputs to this forum.

Hi Dolphin,

1. ... yes, you are quite correct the low came in,
on 05 May 2005, but astrologically that's
not really surprising ... as it fell EXACTLY
halfway, between the March 2005 equinox and
the June 2005 solstice ...

... Gann used that 1/8th division of the
calendar, in the same way that he used
the same division on a price range, for example.

In fact, many markets respond to the 1/8th
time divisions of the annual calendar.

-----

2. Our next MAJOR upside target would be around
8079 (3 x 2693 ... 2693 = 13032003 low) or
5386 range from 13032003 low ...

Actual price level of 5386, also being in the
top third of the daily range for 10052006 highs !~!

Expecting the negative cycle, at the end of October
to be a significant, but short-lived pullback to
test support, around 1000 points higher than the
10052006 highs (5386) ... around 6386, which was
also reached last month, on Spring 2007 equinox !~!

-----

Using a retrograde astrotool, we will be alert for
a hit on 6386, around 26-29102007 ... just as it was,
on 24092007 .....

..... and may be so again, on the next mid-point,
between Spring 2007 equinox and December 2007
solstice, about 05112007 ... ???

Again, that's a 1/8th point on the regular calendar.

-----

Question remains, will the market blow-off to the
highs, another 1400+ points away ... or will the
6666 level prove to be the stumbling block ???

happy trading all

paul

Hi folks,

XJO ... should add, that there's another obvious
psychological level to break just above current
levels, at about 6693 or 4,000 points above the
13032003 lows, at 2693 ... :-)

Thanks Paul for your response and reminding me of the importance of Gann's 1/8th's on the calendar clock and the Devil's number(666).

Some other observations:-

I would have liked to add 6683 to your "cluster" of possible targets for today, being 1200pts from the 16th August low and 120 degrees from your June6/7 timing; we had already exceeded the 144cd out from the 9/10 May timing (came in on the 1st Oct.)but thats obviously going to fall short(unless we can recover from todays fall by the 6/7 Oct).

Oct.6/7 will also be the +50% of the time the XJO took from the May 9/10 timing to the August16/17 lows(99/100cd)and +150% of time from the July13 high to August 16/17 lows(34cd).

Hi Dolphin,

... those clusters of shorter-term cycles certainly
point to some intense market action soon and with
the positive sentiment coming up next week, my own
bet remains long in XJO.

By sector, two areas that may suffer over the coming
week, may be uranium and the high-tech sectors(???).

This is due to a square aspect between Jupiter
and Uranus, next from 08-12102007.

have a great weekend

Hi folks,

From post above, on 21052007:

XJO ... 09 May 2006 = high in 1H 2006 = 5406 and
1154 days from 13032003 low. If we project
a 50% (577 days) Gann time factor, from
09052006, ahead ... 1154 +577 = 1732
13032003 + 1732 days = 09-10122007 and
exactly the time of the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction !~!

-----

06122007:

..... figure the next couple of days will be
VERY NEGATIVE, ahead of a long-anticipated
world event, around 09-10122007 ... :-)

Details of this event have been posted
previously, so suffice-to-say it should
be BIIIIIIG ..... !~!

For the brave, buying into ASX stocks late on
Friday 07122007 may bring big rewards, as our
market may well be seen as a safe haven and
could decouple from the US markets, on Monday.

have a great weekend

Hi folks,

Posted 08072008:

"2909-07102008 ... DOW likely to be strongly negative here"

... as per post above, DOW negativity takes its cue, right on time ..... :-)

-----

... and to add a little more for the next couple of months:-

DOW ..... if you think it is bad now, just wait until Jupiter gets
in on the act, 17-27102008 !~! (New Moon 28102008)

And more negative time cycles, just in time for the US elections:

..... be watching for the Saturn/Uranus opposition,
as it becomes exact and is triggered yet again, by:

Venus 03112008
Sun 11112008 (Full moon 13112008)
Jupiter 03-19112008

have a great day

paul

:-)

Cycle analysis suggests the gap will be filled with some action ...

Hi folks,

XJO ... just some thoughts about some Gann stuff
and anniversaries in the marketplace, in particular.

..... Friday 13032009, marks exactly 6 years since
the last significant low in XJO (2633), which came
in a week before the invasion of Iraq.

Friday 13032009 will also mark 499 days out from
the high (6851), on 01112007 ..... :-)

..... so, we have 2 significant anniversaries
coming together on 13031009 and coincidently two
positive time cycles for XJO should come into play
16-20032009 .. that should be enough to give XJO
a strong short-term bounce, though we may see
some volatility on 18032009, with some negative
news expected.

Further volatility expected in early April 2009,
as 2 positive time cycles around03-06042009 are
offset by two negative cycles, at that time.

-----

DOW ... we may see a flattening of the current
downtrend, around 11-16032009 ..... however, the
strength in XJO, a few days later, should be more
obvious, as stronger and more positive cycles will
be at work.

Updated XJO chart shows the sharp retrace, since 11122007 ... :-)
