<br />
OK There is a long answer but here's a short list:<br />
<b>Mercury Retrograde </b><br />
Mercury's apparent forward, stationary, and backward movement as seen from our planet is always the astrologers best example of how muddled brains all over the world can get. The best current example is the TARP program passed by the Congress and signed into law all during a Mercury retrograde. I discuss this phenomena in my <a href="mailto:marley527-astrologicalinvesting@yahoo.com?subject=The Textbook for Financial Astrology&body=Hi, I'm interested in Financial Astrology. Please send me information on how to purchase The Textbook For Financial Astrology, by Kaye Shinker" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003333;">Textbooks for Financial Astrology Book 1 Lesson 2</a>.<br />
Your average student astrologer will probably have a long list of Mercury retrograde events. Most are pretty funny. <br />
<br />
<b><b>Happy Solar Return </b>and Natal Planetary Conjunctions</b><br />
<b>
</b>On the day you were born a pattern was set. Every year the Sun comes to
the exact same position as it was on the day you were born - the transiting
Sun is conjunct Natal Sun. So much energy focused on that particular day
of the year can make you happy or depressed. So we manage and celebrate the day it by giving you ice
cream and cake and sometimes we invite your friends over to sing songs - but if you are really lucky an astrologer will read your solar return chart. A Solar Return is a chart drawn up at the exact time the Sun returns to the exact same degree is was on the day you were born. An astrologer using this chart can assess and predict the themes that
will arise for you during your next “solar year”—the 12 months that
happen from one birthday to the next.<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">You probably get used to the energy and moods of the <b>Moon</b> since it returns to its natal position 13 times per year, however, <b>Mercury </b>returning to its natal position can often produce a really great idea, <b>Venus</b> can bring a note from an old friend and <b>Mars</b> can make you super energetic when they return to the position it occupied in your natal chart.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Jupiter</b> returns to its natal position about every 12 years. Watch carefully for this event - usually something really nice happens around that date! Jupiter's energy bring expansion, opportunity, luck and in general good vibrations. You need to watch for the sextiles, squares, trines and oppositions of Jupiter and Venus to planets in your horoscope chart as well so you can anticipate that they will bring</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"> some special gift your way.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;">About every seven years <b>Saturn</b> really whacks you and pushes the book of life right in your face and says study up. Saturn is the planet brings
astrologers clients. No one can explain your lessons or understand your
Saturn transit better than an astrologer.</span><br />
<br />
Saturn can be just down right mean. He can take away your love, your money and your health and throw it in the trash. He refuses to return it until you
learn your lesson. Saturn wants you to learn your lessons and learn
them so well you won't forget. Right now Saturn is opposed my Sun and I
am learning to live by my wits and write lengthy prose to a young
astrologer named Leah, my student who asked me "Do planets influence our
daily life?". Hell ya! Saturn forces you to get up and get your act
together.<br />
<br />
The other planets <b>Uranus, Neptune,</b> and <b>Pluto </b>tremendously affect you and your peers
about the same way. You should all get together, call it a study group; you WILL
learn your lessons whether you want to or not!<br />
<br />
<b>Eclipses</b><br />
Then there are eclipses. They interrupt or rip the electrical field that
protects the earth's atmosphere. In 2005 there was an eclipse visible
over New Orleans. In August everyone there learned a lesson as did the
folks who were devastated by Rita. If an eclipse aspects your natal planets the sensitive areas of your life that will be triggered. Beginnings and endings occur and often we’ll begin a new stage in our life. <br />
<br />
Everything I mentioned above influences companies large and small as well! You
can read about them in the<a href="mailto:marley527-astrologicalinvesting@yahoo.com?subject=The Textbook for Financial Astrology&body=Hi, I'm interested in Financial Astrology.

<br />
<b>Wouldn't
it be great if one could say with certainty that when a certain planet
transits another planet the stock market will go up, or that the stock
you just bought this morning will increase significantly in it's price
per share by tomorrow?</b><br />
<br />
Why, we'd all be rich! Unfortunately there is
always room for more than one interpretation of geocosmic energy and
there is always risk involved in the financial markets. <br />
<br />
Nothing
is quite so simple. However, if we do our homework well and then use
astrological principles to help time when we buy and sell stocks, we
have the potential to increase our profits and greatly limit our
downside risk in the financial market. Potential is the keyword here. <br />
<br />
The
best way to use astrology for timing the buying and selling of stocks
is to follow the principles that Kaye Shinker lays out in her <a href="marley527-astrologicalinvesting@yahoo.com?subject=The Textbook for Financial Astrology&body=Hi, I'm interested in Financial Astrology. Please send me information on how to purchase The Textbook For Financial Astrology, by Kaye Shinker"><i>Textbooks for Financial Astrology</i> </a>Then choose a sound and solid stock in a favorable sector. <i>Textbook 2</i> explains the astrological research involved in doing that. <br />
<br />
Then,
most importantly, research how that stock has performed during past
transits by comparing the stock price chart to the transits of the IPO
chart of the stock. For researching stocks according to their IPO and
incorporation dates, the very best and most reliable source to use is<i> Michael Munkasey's Company Data.</i> Historical prices are easily downloaded in Excel from from sources on the internet.<br />
<br />
<b>ASPECTS</b><br />
<br />
Rule
#1 for a Financial Astrologer: DO NOT think in terms of "Good" =
"Trines and Sextiles" and that "Bad" = "Squares and Oppositions". You
may find yourself being surprised at what can move a stock price! The
benefic planets still seem to line up as "good" planets in financial
astrology, but it is the dynamic energy from 4th harmonic aspects that
creates price change and market movement. Trines and sextiles can be
just a momentary blip up in the price on a day when the entire market is
substantially down. <br />
<br />
<br />
Although there is no cosmic
guarantee that a particular aspect will predict either a rising or
falling market or stock price, there are a number of geocosmic contacts
that often do produce a predictable rise or drop in price! <br />
<br />
As
a guideline, I urge that when using astrological cookbook
interpretations to always first look at the stock's IPO chart and/or
chart of incorporation to see how planets are aspected in the horoscope.
Generally, I go by the "nothing promised, nothing gained/ or lost"
theory proclaimed by astrologers <a href="http://www.solsticepoint.com/astrologersmemorial/ivy.html">Ivy Goldstein Jacobson</a>
and other traditionalists, who have taught that if there is not an
aspect in the natal chart between planets then there is "no promise" (no
significant - if any at all - impact ) from an applying aspect between
the same two planets in any future chart. <br />
<br />
I have
found if a planet is not aspected strongly in the IPO chart of a stock
chances are, when transited, the price movement will not be significant
or sustaining in either direction - up or down. Additionally, if a
stock is badly aspected by a planet in it's IPO chart then a planet
which is considered to bring about a bullish rise may surprise you when
it does the very opposite! (And visa versa, if a stock is aspected very
well by a planet that is considered to bring about a bearish movement -
you may not see a negative effect, in fact, it can be very positive!) <br />
<br />
Using
a First Trade chart (IPO) you must take into consideration (1) the
chart of incorporation, (2) the daily aspects of the moon, and which the
phase the Moon is in (New or Full or Quarter Moon phase) and (3) pay
attention to the unfolding geocosmic energy from planets. Especially
important are which aspects are applying to the First Trade chart as
well as the financial sector of the stock at the same time as the stock
chart. <br />
<br />
In <a href="http://www.billmeridian.com/">Bill Meridian's</a> book, Planetary Stock Trading - III, he gives a list of Bullish and Bearish planetary combinations by
transit that, in my experience, I've found to be very reliable. The
following is a list of transiting planetary contacts that he lists (and a
few I have added) - primarily 4th Harmonic aspects - that have more
often than not proved reliably as favorable (or unfavorable) and
generally have moved the market and stock prices: <br />
<br />
<b>BULLISH ASPECTS -</b> <br />
Major
aspects from Jupiter to most planets and points. Jupiter is very
favorable to all planets and points with the exception of Jupiter
aspects to Mars and Saturn which can trigger both favorable and
unfavorable price swings. (Remember to look at the IPO chart to see how
these planets are connected)<br />
<br />
Major aspects between Sun and Venus are generally favorable.<br />
<br />
Major
aspects from Neptune to the Sun and to Venus. (With Neptune comes times
of uncertainty filled with hopes, wishes and dreams - they often
coincide with false rumors and illusions. Be sure to take careful note
of how Neptune is aspected in the IPO chart!) <br />
<br />
Major
aspects from Uranus to Venus and to the chart angles are generally
favorable. (Note: one must be very certain of the accuracy of chart data
if using angles and pay attention to how well Uranus is placed in the
chart!) <br />
<br />
<b>BEARISH ASPECTS - </b> <br />
Major aspects
by Saturn to most planets, and points - with the exception of aspects
from transiting Saturn to Mercury and Mars which can trigger both
favorable and unfavorable price swings.<br />
<br />
Major Uranus and Neptune aspects to Pluto.<br />
<br />
Major Pluto aspects to an angle or the Lunar nodes. (Again, be certain of the chart!) <br />
<br />
A
takeover can be favorable or unfavorable to a stock's price per share.
Pluto, representing power and control, is often involved by transiting
aspect in buyouts and takeovers of corporations. Jupiter-Pluto an
aspect representing optimism, expansion, change and a thrust toward
power and success is often very favorable. <br />
<br />
<b>Eclipses</b>
- An eclipse can have a positive or negative effect that may last as
long as two or three months depending upon the planet aspected by the
eclipse. Eclipses impact the market and the movement of stock prices
by triggering, or turning on, whatever planets they touch within 3
degrees of the applying eclipse aspect. This geocosmic energy can be
triggered during the eclipse or later when a transiting planet
(particularly Mars) activates the eclipse degree by aspect. The hard
aspects, especially the conjunction and square are most notable.
Aspects to either Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus or the stock chart angles
from an eclipse are all favorable. Generally they will give rise in the
price per share of a stock, while eclipses to Saturn and Pluto do the
opposite and tend to drive a stock price down. During an eclipse stock
prices can be unpredictable and erratic. <br />
<br />
<b>An important note about the the transiting Moon! </b>-
Always, always, always, pay attention to the daily aspects of the Moon!
The Moon will trigger applying geocosmic aspects into play, as well as
determine the general mood - minute by minute - hour by hour - of the
market each day. Day traders can use the times when the Moon forms an
aspect to time intra-day turning points or reversals. On days when the
Moon makes many aspects the market often has large volumes of buying and
selling, while days when there are not many or no aspects, the market
can be slow or filled with uncertainty. Some astrologers prefer not to
trade during the Void-of-Course Moon, (as well as during Mercury RX),
but I have not been convinced that one necessarily should avoid the
market during these times. Also, the phase the Moon is in - New, Full or
Quarter Moon phases - is important in timing. <br />
<br />
The phases of the Moon - New Moon, Full Moon, and Quarter Moon phases are discussed in Randall Ashbourne's article, <i>Moods of the Moon</i>.<br />
<br />
On our blog we have posted an article written by Randall Ashbourne, titled <a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.blogspot.com/2011/08/using-daily-aspect-calendars-to-time.html">Using Daily Aspect Calendars to Time Intraday Trades.</a>
In this article Mr. Ashbourne gives interpretations of the Moon
through the signs and how they affect the market. I find both of these
articles quite noteworthy and recommend them for reading. Highly
recommended is Randall's book, "<a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html" target="_blank">The Idiot and the Moon</a>" (click link - also available to click from right link navigation on our blog.<br />
<br />
Transiting
planets and geocosmic combinations of aspects influence the market in
many different ways, and each combination of energy driven by the
transits of planets has both positive and negative influences depending
upon many different types of circumstances including the influences of
the greater cycles of geocosmic energy - cycles of the outer planets -
that are unfolding at the same time. Always check your ephemeris and
pay particular attention to the trending market and the unfolding
cycles. <br />
<br />
Happy Trading! <br />
<br />
Author's
notes: Success in the financial market begins first with the
understanding and use of the principles of what has been considered
traditional types of market analysis, and then applying geocosmic
principles as a final step in one's investment strategy. <br />
<br />
Astrology
is a precise market timing tool, but it can not sensibly be used as a
stand-alone strategy for financial investing. For example, astrology
cannot be used to determine market trends like technical analysis, nor
can astrology be used as a key to determine whether a particular stock
has a sound and solid economic basis like fundamental analysis. My
absolute favorite trading book using technical tools with astrology is
Randall Ashbourne's <i>The Idiot and the Moon</i>. In fact, I wouldn't buy a stock without first checking it using Mr. Ashbourne's "Idiot" method. <br />

It will take only a few minutes of backtesting on your part to see

I will also outline the details of a Lunar Cycle trading system that

I will show you advanced and original techniques using unique planetary
software to determine the probable start and finish prices of intermediate

stock indices.<br />
<br />
And I will show you how to make the most use of some simple technical

The book is written for those who, like me, forgot the first thing

losses; and it will prove itself to be a lot smarter than you think
you are.<br />
<br />
But wait … there’s more. As they say in the tackier
TV commercials.<br />
<br />
I will also outline the details of a Lunar Cycle trading system that
will also help you to make profits and to avoid costly mistakes. And
I will show you advanced and original techniques using unique planetary
software to determine the probable start and finish prices of intermediate
and long-term moves in some of the world’s most widely-traded
stock indices.<br />
<br />
And I will show you how to make the most use of some simple technical
indicators, unlike some others who tell you what they are, but not
how to tweak them and interpret their signals and secrets.<br />
<br />
The book is written for those who, like me, forgot the first thing
they knew – but, also, for everyone just starting out learning
how to trade stock markets.<br />
<br />
The simple truth is that most traders lose money. If you remember
the first two thoughts and learn to follow The Idiot, or even only
The Moods of the Moon, you will not be one of them." </i>- RA</div>

This
is a short and simple, yet serious book that
promises to increase your profitability and
reduce your trading losses in the market using
a unique trading tool Randall Ashbourne calls
<i>"The Idiot"</i>. <br />

In his book, <i>The Idiot & the Moon,</i>
Randall shares the method he has developed
over years of trading with us. Additionally,
he shows us how to combine <i>his "Idiot"
method </i> to profitably trade the stock
market using lunar phases, (New Moon, Full
Moon, First and Quarter cycles) with technical
tools and astrology. </h1>

<div align="justify" class="astroinvestStyle">
<b><i>INTRODUCTION:</i></b><i> "The last thing
I learned was the first thing I knew.</i><br />
<i>Somewhere between then and now, I’d forgotten – drowned
in a daily deluge of data and information, cunningly disguised as
knowledge.<br />
<br />
But, it was not. It was a long way from being knowledge and farther
still from being wisdom.</i></div>
<div align="justify" class="astroinvestStyle">
<i> So, this book is an
attempt to begin at the beginning – at least so far as stock trading
is concerned. And we begin with just two thoughts:<br />
</i></div>
<div align="center" class="astroinvestStyle">
<i><b>·</b>
ALWAYS protect your capital</i></div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<div align="center" class="astroinvestStyle">
<i><b>·</b> I am NOT as smart as I think I am</i><br />
<div align="justify">
<i>It’s not a big book, but I hope it distills
many years of information accumulation into a taut collection of useful
knowledge that you, in turn, may be able to convert to trading wisdom.<br />
<br />
Its primary purpose is to outline the rules of a simple trading system
– a system so simple and so easy to follow that I call it:<b>
</b>The Idiot.<br />
<br />
It will take only a few minutes of backtesting on your part to see
that it does work; it will protect your capital; it will deliver enormous
profits without agonising, analysis, or angst; it will limit your
losses; and it will prove itself to be a lot smarter than you think
you are.<br />
<br />
But wait … there’s more. As they say in the tackier
TV commercials.<br />
<br />
I will also outline the details of a Lunar Cycle trading system that
will also help you to make profits and to avoid costly mistakes. And
I will show you advanced and original techniques using unique planetary
software to determine the probable start and finish prices of intermediate
and long-term moves in some of the world’s most widely-traded
stock indices.<br />
<br />
And I will show you how to make the most use of some simple technical
indicators, unlike some others who tell you what they are, but not
how to tweak them and interpret their signals and secrets.<br />
<br />
The book is written for those who, like me, forgot the first thing
they knew – but, also, for everyone just starting out learning
how to trade stock markets.<br />
<br />
The simple truth is that most traders lose money. If you remember
the first two thoughts and learn to follow The Idiot, or even only
The Moods of the Moon, you will not be one of them." </i>- RA</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 16px;"><b>Since
January we've been chatting about a new Bear ... one which rapidly
mauled 20% out of some markets, but has been more like a soft-chew gummy
bear on the major Wall Street indices.</b></span><br />
So, we'll spend some time in this edition of the Eye taking a look at just what sort of Bear we're dealing with.<br />
<br />
And whether it's a real Bear, or a Bull that dressed up as one to play mind games with us!<br />
<br />
In the last edition, in April, I indicated the potential negative impact of Mars going retrograde, something the planet does every couple of years, but which can be particularly dangerous when it occurs while markets are in a topping phase.<br />
<br />
Mercury is also now a little over midway through one of its regular retrograde periods, often a time when prices change course every few days and it's difficult to get an accurate reading on what to expect next.<br />
<br />
The Reserve Bank of Australia is the latest of the central banks to cut interest rates and there is talk it, too, is headed to the negative interest rate area.<br />
<br />
And there's the problem ... because it makes stocks the only "growth" option.<br />
<br />
The desperate search for yield is having different impacts on different markets. We'll begin the analysis with a look at Wall Street's main trading index, the SP500.<br />
<br />
In the last edition, I explained the impact of Mars, the planet which symbolises drive and energy, on the price of stock indices and how the 500 (as well as other indices) rises over time very much in-step with the angle of Mars' travels through our solar system. Scroll down to April's blog if you need a refresher.
<br />
<br />
In our first chart, I'll reiterate the "drive" on a weekly chart. Looking from left-to-right, we can see that almost all of the price action since the last Bear bottom in 2009 has been contained within a rising channel between two Mars price lines placed 360 degrees apart.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7M7i6xtBjJYpLzN59yUFYXVA0b70p26Eds8OJtksNHO6qVSpYSkfK1KjQSoT5NPeX_xNT-UIo0kKPhtzcnmqntE3c0HjV6oMf1TPEg7iARDX0jbjRW_AFqA6wySopJF5VtWiVu9q2CAc/s1600/Polly+Mars+1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7M7i6xtBjJYpLzN59yUFYXVA0b70p26Eds8OJtksNHO6qVSpYSkfK1KjQSoT5NPeX_xNT-UIo0kKPhtzcnmqntE3c0HjV6oMf1TPEg7iARDX0jbjRW_AFqA6wySopJF5VtWiVu9q2CAc/s400/Polly+Mars+1.png" /></a></div>
There have been three downside breaks of that channel, with Pollyanna recovering each time to claw her way back inside the rising channel. The next chart shows the most recent action and narrows the Mars lines down to 90 degrees, as well as including the falling channels.
<br />
<br />
The 360 degree channel of the first chart is marked by the thicker red lines in this one and we can see how the 500 has been slowly dropping since Mars went Rx a few weeks ago. It is still trying to cling to the support that channel provides.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcFD2KA_RzzzfjOLDud2QTdpzGdli_KoORNtIU_kePp1XGiLgdKA5gtnarzTt7Rj2AOMybbRBURp1rJ0dSldxn0l2zj3Gs-hHsdLXDWgVwAsb4gP69PqMyqa8R9IkZ4lRfPHVly7QzNe4/s1600/Polly+Mars+2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="293" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcFD2KA_RzzzfjOLDud2QTdpzGdli_KoORNtIU_kePp1XGiLgdKA5gtnarzTt7Rj2AOMybbRBURp1rJ0dSldxn0l2zj3Gs-hHsdLXDWgVwAsb4gP69PqMyqa8R9IkZ4lRfPHVly7QzNe4/s400/Polly+Mars+2.png" width="400" /></a></div>
And while Mars tends to dictate the <i>angle</i> of rises and falls, it tends to be the price lines of the slower-moving outer planets which set the more horizontal levels of support and resistance.
In the February 7 edition, <a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.blogspot.com/2016/02/waiting-for-dead-cat-to-bounce.html"><i>Waiting for the dead cat to bounce</i>,</a> I said: <span style="color: blue;"><i>"It is possible a rebound could take price all the way back to the 2080s."</i></span>
The index went a little above the 2087 level for a few days before being repelled by a falling, primary Mercury line (pink). In theory, the rally on Wall Street should be over, done and finished.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhesGdGEQ_Vb0Mk1-sqmIm2tBbwbXBKqgO3cInyNGmzeqESC8JODk2zokf2sW2kG_7ytTN3OWuvODePZD8NCi3vDDkaQNUgN0u8ZSDIgj-rhjd4rxxrMOo453EF29adFyTDKQJAvQXf-YU/s1600/Polly+Primaries_14.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhesGdGEQ_Vb0Mk1-sqmIm2tBbwbXBKqgO3cInyNGmzeqESC8JODk2zokf2sW2kG_7ytTN3OWuvODePZD8NCi3vDDkaQNUgN0u8ZSDIgj-rhjd4rxxrMOo453EF29adFyTDKQJAvQXf-YU/s400/Polly+Primaries_14.png" /></a></div>
We'll turn now to the top two European indices ... the DAX and the FTSE. Both certainly appear to be well within the grip of a real Bear. The DAX has fallen out of a long-range Pluto/Neptune price cluster and hasn't been able to score a close inside it for the past 5 months.
<br />
<br />
Its Big Bird oscillator, the 50 CCI, is in Bear mode without even a hint of positive divergence suggesting a sustained rebound.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikhSTjWsAdspfSNxwnj20lfIAId1O0LnoTb0Qrl_nLwJ_UbxNaaukDGphTloxv_ZclgbmMhMucrObsR4dJq3uiy3Kf5zLohENzhThyW1PIi1mrfKp2ySJy6sCmBHIKZF9dFoXGBzKsvdk/s1600/DAX_07.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikhSTjWsAdspfSNxwnj20lfIAId1O0LnoTb0Qrl_nLwJ_UbxNaaukDGphTloxv_ZclgbmMhMucrObsR4dJq3uiy3Kf5zLohENzhThyW1PIi1mrfKp2ySJy6sCmBHIKZF9dFoXGBzKsvdk/s400/DAX_07.png" /></a></div>
Instead of using planetary prices for the FTSE we'll use a couple of really simple technical lines ... the rally angle and a black horizonal line of support and resistance.
<br />
<br />
The FTSE has not closed below that black line, despite the spikes down, for many months. And that's one reason I remain more than a tad cautious about the exact nature of this Bear. The FTSE is finding support on TOP of the line, rather than consolidating below it.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfRLacy9bQowP0dhLvWII9w60owZ2kXHoSBKAwEoIOXoyotiIuZeCAGEaZRsC4ayWgpdcgWwlv62rJ79xvgreOP429LvizA6UoZitWTaMqKUKrp1CQ92Fuw9AFC_AqbmeIqxOz5trNexA/s1600/FTSE_11.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfRLacy9bQowP0dhLvWII9w60owZ2kXHoSBKAwEoIOXoyotiIuZeCAGEaZRsC4ayWgpdcgWwlv62rJ79xvgreOP429LvizA6UoZitWTaMqKUKrp1CQ92Fuw9AFC_AqbmeIqxOz5trNexA/s400/FTSE_11.png" /></a></div>
And what makes me cautious is that price is not following the patttern Big Bird established during the 2007-2009 crash. Yes, this Bear also took a huge bite out of the index on its first decline ... but lately has morphed into some sort of gummy bear. Normally, when the oscillator drops but price simply goes sideways, it is a preliminary warning that the oscillator is just readying itself for another rally surge.
<br />
<br />
And I've been getting the same sense of real caution on the ASX 200. This index slumped more than 20% in 11 months from April last year and Big Bird started a death dive much the same as it did after the previous Bull peak.
<br />
<br />
But something odd is happening. Big Bird's dive has been constantly stalling, something it did not do during the crash into 2009.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCd1GOsEHcuLNMPrDuDGH0TnCNTVHG8VMB5YzyCoGvji8aKQljRGcjIxLQctUZYyGvGkya71cPdVDJyD81_nr8ECk5ip9_GPYNto4jrAePL1TxmuxOhMGmuMouFD_ejDQIeZUv14rZBiI/s1600/ASX+Monthly_02.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCd1GOsEHcuLNMPrDuDGH0TnCNTVHG8VMB5YzyCoGvji8aKQljRGcjIxLQctUZYyGvGkya71cPdVDJyD81_nr8ECk5ip9_GPYNto4jrAePL1TxmuxOhMGmuMouFD_ejDQIeZUv14rZBiI/s400/ASX+Monthly_02.png" /></a></div>
We can also see it in the performance of all three Birds on the weekly chart below. The rebound hasn't been able to climb and stay above the 50% retrace level ... but the performance of the red Medium Bird and the blue Big Bird strongly suggest the index is not finished trying to do exactly that.
<br />
<br />
The only negative divergence here is in the green Fast Bird, which indicates only short-term resistance.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit_c2eSROjrtiEZQvK4oQp6ruoTxMdp79SzO1TB_caPDf77lyEExtjFaWuMe36ONpjvwXXoS6VPPOE_UPBJFX_qETXGBzffAnr1NpC2jVJLnup1I7uLkIoWrqanx4MKoNTUE8WqkSyfFU/s1600/ASX+Weekly.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit_c2eSROjrtiEZQvK4oQp6ruoTxMdp79SzO1TB_caPDf77lyEExtjFaWuMe36ONpjvwXXoS6VPPOE_UPBJFX_qETXGBzffAnr1NpC2jVJLnup1I7uLkIoWrqanx4MKoNTUE8WqkSyfFU/s400/ASX+Weekly.png" /></a></div>
So, overall, my impression is that we are probably still wrapped in the claws of a very nasty and quite long-range Bear.
<br />
<br />
But, there are a few caution flags warning us not to get so certain of that as an imminent outcome ... and to be gently aware that Yogi and Boo Boo are taking time out for a picnic!

In the past two editions, I outlined the price targets and potential time turns for what seemed likely to be no more than a significant dead cat bounce within a new, long-term Bear market.<br />
<br />
Now that the probable targets have been hit, I wish to talk, just a little, about <i>The Spooky Stuff</i>.<br />
<br />
Mars, the planet of drive and energy, goes retrograde next weekend until late in June. Mercury, which deals with thinking and communicating, goes retrograde on April 28 for about a month.<br />
<br />
Long-term readers know that any trend which starts within a day of two of Mercury going Rx is likely to reverse course again about 1.5 to 2 weeks later; And that we're prone to making mistakes, so need to double-check before hitting the Buy or Sell buttons.<br />
<br />
Mars is another matter entirely. The symbolism is simple: Mars is Drive; when the planet goes Rx, Drive slips into Reverse.<br />
<br />
It doesn't happen <i>every</i> time. But. If the circumstances are in place, that slipping of the gears from Drive into Reverse can see indices backing off a cliff!<br />
<br />
Below is a monthly chart of Pollyanna, the SP500. As I've remarked many times, Polly moves up and down within Martian channels. If we look at the Bull peaks in early 2000 and late 2007, we can see the big Mars channels which defined the overall angle of the entire Bull runs.<br />
<br />
And we can see the same impact almost all the way through the 2009 to 2015 Bull market. Now, note those little "blips" along the lines ... they're the retrograde periods. In the two previous Bears, prices slipped out of the main rising channels ... and started to crash badly when Mars Rx came along. Those two instances are marked with the yellow ovals. <br />

<br />
And we can see from the current price position of the index, such a danger period is now immediately ahead of us. It is not guaranteed, of course. But if it does take hold, the index tends to fall sharply down declining Mars channels, even more easily than it climbs the rising channels. You can see the impact during the two previous Bear markets.<br />

In the last edition, <a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.blogspot.com/2016/03/dead-cat-bounce-nears-its-likely-peak.html" target="_blank"><i><b>Dead cat bounce nears its likely peak</b></i>,</a><span style="font-size: xx-small;">(click or scroll down to March 13, 2016 post)</span> I indicated that I expected the SP500 to hit a Saturn line, then priced around $2049, but that while that might signal the "price" target, it was unlikely to satisfy the "time" component.
In fact, I was a tad mean with the $2049 price tag. When I shifted to a daily chart, Saturn was around $2056 by the time the daily bars hit it. After making first contact, the index backed off before aiming for a gap breakout. At this stage, still a "false" breakout ... because the index is back down to play with the primary Mars line.
<br />

<br />
Miss Polly isn't the only index driven up and down by Mars channels. Despite some positive divergence in the oscillators at the time of writing the March edition, the ASX 200 hit the lower limits of the weekly price targets I showed then ... and, instead of hanging around to fill in "time", as Polly did, it just started sliding down a primary Martian channel ... making its actual Highs and Lows very close to long-range Neptune price lines (grey on the chart below).<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTMnZXUUrMhgnYTz_Rhmd329Bz8vO80VXDUXZEUG8cc58Qn2ZCPeTnXV0QcIR56jmtlOl3TsNFe7oQA_FChEApopKfvLp2ezqBfVEB7RviBw6zOXvjtKkrUageZAkYKsirvGzhp5X2lZk/s1600/ASX+Mars.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTMnZXUUrMhgnYTz_Rhmd329Bz8vO80VXDUXZEUG8cc58Qn2ZCPeTnXV0QcIR56jmtlOl3TsNFe7oQA_FChEApopKfvLp2ezqBfVEB7RviBw6zOXvjtKkrUageZAkYKsirvGzhp5X2lZk/s400/ASX+Mars.png" width="400" /></a></div>
That does leave the ASX more than a little vulnerable to further falls ... especially if Mars has a Bearish impact during this Rx period. You can see on the weekly planets chart below the index continues to hit those lines regularly during multi-week moves.<br />
<br /> A drop below the blue Saturn lines, right where it finished last week, leaves a large hole to fall down. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: black; font-family: "verdana"; font-size: 16px;"><b>In the last <i>Eye of Ra</i>, on February 7, I predicted a dead cat bounce in major stock markets was imminent.</b></span><br />
<br />
Five weekends later, we need to go into ultra-cautious mode yet again because that bounce is probably very close to hitting its peak ... in Price, though maybe not in Time.
<br />
<br />
In the last edition, I indicated the bounce may already be underway, with the mid to late January lows marking a turning point.
<br />
<br />
That was the case in some markets, with others hanging on another few days, until February 10, to hit a final low before the bounce took off.
<br />
<br />
I also indicated it was probable that Central Banks would try desperately to stop the drop ... and we also saw that happen with the European Central Bank taking unbelievable risks with a decision to prop up corporate bonds.
<br />
<br />
This edition will be relatively short. I'll give you the all-important planetary price targets for the SP500, but use the ASX 200 as an example of why the bounce may be running out of Price, but not of Time
<br />
<br />
As usual, Wall Street has been leading the pack higher. The Pollyanna index, the SP500, ended last week only about 5% off its 2015 peak.
<br />
<br />
There is still a slim chance that we have not entered into Bear territory and that Wall Street could make new all-time Highs in the next few months. But, it is very slim.
<br />
<br />
More likely is that Pollyanna will start to roll over again, possibly around Wednesday after Jupiter trines Pluto.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjth1Kl3UAWm4k6l_EJ6UPnnsNC3EA-jr6hALJLeMUh3xUceN3928Rfqte_0eeE3zYh55NxeNElgzXRbrl2XvYBqE9jCXYFloRYH1WDU-ToN5SSFCEoR4mSP9yg7NQWsQ7WQFMfoQqG3Jo/s1600/Polly+long+range+planets_02.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjth1Kl3UAWm4k6l_EJ6UPnnsNC3EA-jr6hALJLeMUh3xUceN3928Rfqte_0eeE3zYh55NxeNElgzXRbrl2XvYBqE9jCXYFloRYH1WDU-ToN5SSFCEoR4mSP9yg7NQWsQ7WQFMfoQqG3Jo/s400/Polly+long+range+planets_02.png" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The most obvious price target is $2049, a Saturn price line on the index's long-range planetary price chart. I think there is enough positive momentum in the daily, weekly and monthly charts to get Pollyanna to those levels.
<br />
<br />
In fact, it's the positive momentum, especially in weekly and monthly charts of various indices, that suggests markets are not going to hit a certain price point and then collapse and go into crash mode.
<br />
<br />
Most Bears seem to be trying to call a "top-and-crash" at every single overhead resistance level and then stand there wondering what went wrong when prices just power through that supposed resistance.
<br />
<br />
Simply, they're reading the wrong charts. Or reading the right ones wrongly.
<br />
<br />
Below is the Weekly Planets chart for the ASX 200.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDDRIVq_Zay-eTOKylWEECecdRqfH0Spdbjheiu3nkv8u3lzV3_zJv7A2NZDQ_g0nLUL-v0EKsJ07749d32aoCKYqzqDpKg2S4oUEx7L1n_gScAvuI8lqEE8tbQsqerprphDno_tQ0tcQ/s1600/ASX+Weekly+Planets_04.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDDRIVq_Zay-eTOKylWEECecdRqfH0Spdbjheiu3nkv8u3lzV3_zJv7A2NZDQ_g0nLUL-v0EKsJ07749d32aoCKYqzqDpKg2S4oUEx7L1n_gScAvuI8lqEE8tbQsqerprphDno_tQ0tcQ/s400/ASX+Weekly+Planets_04.png" /></a></div>
<br />
It shows the 200 is about to run into heavy resistance. But the need to be wary of being overly Bearish ...<i> here and now </i>... is the slow build-up of positive divergence in the Big Bird oscillator. It's distinctly possible it will need some Time to be sufficiently debased to warn of another imminent Bear leg down.
<br />
<br />
The next chart shows price is still reaching for a Fibonacci 38.2% retracement of the first downleg. It's worrying that it hasn't climbed back as far as Pollyanna, but you can see how the Fast Bird (green) and Medium Bird (red) lines mirror the Big Bird's efforts to make higher peaks at lower prices.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvdIfM-c6QuOhX17c7e2qRsxfk0GgW6dx5Q9_ZN8aj3Ip8njNFI4UANaApUlOxGUi5FQKD1JrItWZ8Zl-aZGw-3fjzG_1qmmiZkKnKQ5PlRhO-BWQ8wa6o30EEDi0dDOmZQqYomNG34bA/s1600/ASX+Weekly+FiboRx.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvdIfM-c6QuOhX17c7e2qRsxfk0GgW6dx5Q9_ZN8aj3Ip8njNFI4UANaApUlOxGUi5FQKD1JrItWZ8Zl-aZGw-3fjzG_1qmmiZkKnKQ5PlRhO-BWQ8wa6o30EEDi0dDOmZQqYomNG34bA/s400/ASX+Weekly+FiboRx.png" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
And if that's not sufficient to warn the Bears to be just a little cautious in growling so adamantly, take note of the higher troughs in both Fast and Medium Birds on the monthly chart below. <i>Monthly </i>divergence. That's not something easily wiped away ... and is why I said in the introduction to this edition, we may well be nearing the peak of the bounce in terms of Price, but not of Time.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRvbN88GxwD4IfH4oWNax7Pp2_VZgDSFlLTfan4_auHHxTybEktP6WMrZac1XGXrWqo7_B1MlV-uh2JkQZ4QZeG24vsrJTixmvEK5kJIvcbgpo3q0G4ffsz49YMFdilsXh1JkYszLwrjk/s1600/ASX+Monthly+FiboRx.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRvbN88GxwD4IfH4oWNax7Pp2_VZgDSFlLTfan4_auHHxTybEktP6WMrZac1XGXrWqo7_B1MlV-uh2JkQZ4QZeG24vsrJTixmvEK5kJIvcbgpo3q0G4ffsz49YMFdilsXh1JkYszLwrjk/s400/ASX+Monthly+FiboRx.png" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Markets have an annoying habit of trying to fool the majority of investors.
<br />
<br />
So, that's it for this edition. We did get the strong dead cat bounce I spoke about last time. There is a slim chance it will morph into a totally-surprising final upleg of the Bull market.
<br />
<br />
I urge you to do what I always suggest:
<br />
<br />
Use the monthly and weekly charts for the long and medium range targets ... up or down. And WHEN price gets near to those targets, THEN turn your attention to daily and intraday charts for signs from the momentum of the oscillators that a trend change is starting to get really close.

We discussed the probability of that in the first two reports for this year, both of which can be accessed by scrolling down.<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;"><b> </b></span><br />
There is still a chance that Central Banks will try desperately to stop the drop, but they appear to have exhausted their ammunition.
<br />
<br />
The next major rally is, given the extreme levels of technical damage, most likely to be a dead cat bounce which will provide the last chance for many traders to exit Long positions before being wiped out.<br />
<br />
That bounce may already be underway, with the mid to late January Lows marking a turning point for a upward-leaning grind that could run into May, perhaps even early June.
<br />
<br />
Venus conjuncted Pluto and squared Uranus last week, two strongly negative aspects. This week brings a trine to Jupiter. Given both planets are "benefic" and Earth signs are involved, we could see a level of stability return.
<br />
<br />
I did promise last month to include the current position of some Asian indices; we'll do that this week, as well as taking another look at Wall Street's SP500 and the ASX 200.<br />
<br />
The Nasdaq took a major hit last week, with some of the big name tech stocks rolling over badly. These had been helping to hold aloft the entire American market.<br />
<br />
Pollyanna, the SP500, has not yet, I believe, actually <i>confirmed</i> it is now in a Bear market. But that scenario is now leaning heavily towards the probable, rather than the possible.<br />
<br />
Below is the 500's long-range planetary price chart. The index is still trying to hold the Pluto level in the early 1870s. It is possible a rebound could take price all the way back to the 2080s. Still, long-term history shows it finds strong levels of both support and resistance at those orange Node lines.<br />

The Weekly Planets chart for the ASX 200 is below, with the index opening and closing last week's trading within a band between grey Neptune now at 5012 and Uranus now at 4974.
<br />
<br />
There isn't much to stop a further drop if it dives again below the blue Saturns now converging at around 4949. And any rally is likely to find barriers in the 5184 to 5249 range.

India's Nifty is playing very closely to Pluto price lines. Traders can use these lines as potential targets, keeping a very close eye on daily charts for signs of positive or negative divergence starting to show whenever these targets are approached in actual trading.
<br />

Hong Kong has already fallen off its Bullish trend line ... something which has not yet happened decisively on the SP500 or ASX 200 ... and has also completed a backtest of the line. Big Bird, the 50CCI, is gasping in the dust of the mine floor.
<br />
<br />
There is a little positive divergence in the two faster Birds, giving at least some hope for a bounce "from the obvious" level of Fibonacci support.

It's a difficult call, though, since the index is currently stalled below long-range planetary price support. You'll note that in both charts, the next layer of major support doesn't come into force until around 16,000.
<br />

Singapore is holding up a little more strongly than the Hang Seng at this stage, still just hanging onto planetary support.

We can see the alternative levels of Fibonacci support and resistance in the chart below. Fibonacci levels and planetary prices will very often be quite close to each other.

<br />
The black lines are linked to the previous Bull High and Bear Low and the red ones run from the Bear Low to last year's High, and even a quick glance will show you both sets provide a reliable guide to the likely length of rallies and declines. Again, if you're actively trading in these dangerous conditions, use these as a big picture guide and watch the daily charts like a hawk for any potential turn as the prices are approached.
<br />
<br />
If this is a major, new Bear ... and it probably is ... the biggest, nastiest, fastest section of the crash is still ahead of us.

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>Last weekend I warned that the alarm bells are screaming very loudly. </b></span><span style="font-size: xx-small;"> (scroll down to read last weeks post,. Beware of the Bear.)</span><br />
<br />
After a week of deep-diving stock markets worldwide, I will review below where we may now be in long-range Elliott Wave terms.<br />
<br />
It is possible, Stocks would need to begin bouncing strongly and virtually immediately for that to be true.
<br />
<br />
The alternative is that virtually all major worldwide stock indices made a long-term Bull market top last year and we are already in the grip of a Bear market which could last at least another year and, if follows the "norm", will wipe out perhaps as much as 50% of your net worth. And possibly more in the Wall Street markets.<br />
<br />
The onset of the new Bear is not yet set in concrete. However, it is only a few per cent away and as I said last weekend, it was distinctly possible even before last week's dives, that some markets, such as Australia, are already in its grip. because of major astrological events last week, that the drop is a head fake.<br />
<br />
We will begin this report with an updated look at the broad Elliott Wave roadmap, where Bull markets rise in 5 waves.<a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop.html" target="_blank"> In Forecast 2015, <span style="font-size: x-small;">(still available to download)</span></a><span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span>, I had drawn the red arrow on the left indicating where we were at the start of 2015.
<br />
<br />
It is possible ... but only just ... that Wall Street still has two more rallies before the current Bull is dead. If that is so, those indices are close to where I have drawn the black arrow.
<br />
<br />
However, the very real danger is that the top is in and a large-scale meltdown is already underway. If that is the case, we may already be within the early stages of a crash ... the second part of a crash which has been underway for months.
<br />
<br />
As a rough guide, my best guesstimate would place Wall Street about where the red triangle is positioned. In short, we ALL need to watch the next rally very carefully and be prepared to: Get the Hell Outa Dodge!!

<br />
We'll look this weekend at the long-range charts for the FTSE and the DAX. England has slumped back into the price zone marked by the two thin, black horizontal lines.
<br />
<br />
Its position within that zone needs to be monitored VERY closely, because the Big Bird oscillator certainly looks to be in a death dive.
<br />
<br />
If you look at what happened during the 2007-2009 Bear market on the left of the chart you have a graphic illustration of what I mean when I say we may already be in the early stages of a crash.

The monthly Idiot is now firmly in Sell mode on Germany's DAX. The blue-line Big Bird oscillator is in deep trouble and so, too, is the red-line Medium Bird, which is clearly warning that more trouble is looming. The green-line Fast Bird is showing some positive divergence, though this will not be settled until the end of the month.
<br />
<br />
Still, it is giving preliminary notification of a potential bounceback nearby.

Please note in the chart above that the Fast and Medium Bird oscillators are looking suspiciously similar to their behaviour just before the 2008 crash.

Below is the DAX's long-range planetary price chart ... and that's one big hole its price is starting to drop into.

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>Best
wishes to everyone for a happy and prosperous 2016, though if you're
counting on stocks to provide either happiness or prosperity, you'll
need to be very nimble.</b></span><br />
2015 has ended with very few worldwide stock indices holding onto the gains they made early in the year.v<br />
<br />
Many commentators, even the optimistic ones, expect more trouble and few gains to be made in the coming 12 months.<br />
<br />
From a contrarian point of view, there are ... perhaps ... too many people calling an end to the Bull run and a return of the Bear; the market rarely does what the majority expect and forecast.<br />
<br />
Still, even the best Elliott Wave analysts now believe the end of this very long-running Bull market (at least for the American indices) is only a rally or two away from starting.<br />
<br />
It is distinctly possible that some stock markets are already in its grip. Over the next week, I will try to bring you up to date on all the major markets ... starting today with Wall Street's SP500 and Australia's ASX200.<br />
<br />
My apologies for my prolonged absence during the past few months. I am still ill and no longer have the energy to write regular columns.<br />
<br />
Bear markets tend to be defined in line with the percentage crash from their Highs. The Australian stock market has been one of the world's real laggards in terms of its Bull run since the last Bear terminated in 2009.<br />
<br />
The ASX200 made a double top at $5996 last March and April. In the next 4 months, it crashed a tad more than 17.5% from the High and has made four "tests" of that crash level, with December finally making a bounce from the obvious ... contact with a rising trendline.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil8ul7EuGwRmtYC_C7H6u41pWURWQzMQePPL_UMEFW__7E3qDgeYxnHplrPmdHGgrmMx8yQ1EI0c-XTMaHLorVgDqqoGcVjEJ4e9jflzcL6rC3gMPRINopOLM6YUoGotZSG4tTjvC09b8/s1600/ASX+1_08.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="307" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil8ul7EuGwRmtYC_C7H6u41pWURWQzMQePPL_UMEFW__7E3qDgeYxnHplrPmdHGgrmMx8yQ1EI0c-XTMaHLorVgDqqoGcVjEJ4e9jflzcL6rC3gMPRINopOLM6YUoGotZSG4tTjvC09b8/s400/ASX+1_08.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The Idiot remains on a monthly Sell signal. Big Bird, the 50 CCI oscillator marked with a blue line in the lower panel, has plunged below the +100 level. There remains some hope for a rally in the first part of 2016; we have a bounce from the long-range trendline, Big Bird appears to have made a Zero Line Rejection (ie: it has bounced higher from the red, dotted zero line which tends to indicate a reliable bounce) and Fast Bird, the green line, has spiked above Medium Bird (the red).
<br />
<br />
Now let's take a look at the Pollyanna index, the SP500, using the alternative Bi-BB method recommended in <a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop-IdiotandMoon.html" target="_blank">The Idiot & The Moon</a>. The August mini-crash took the index down 12.5% from its High. The fast MACD remains in clear Sell mode.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMNFw04-G74cJeugyloB1uITTkFkWI9ZCrWY_jP20vAESmWJMKyZGdB7KjM_7Dv2_f6nII_heB3vmgc83OoxiRD25O1gyDk_Iu4rf-TEHzhjTK0Jvaymqk-ALrJa-vTUwcaLBr0c-12TE/s1600/Polly+1_09.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMNFw04-G74cJeugyloB1uITTkFkWI9ZCrWY_jP20vAESmWJMKyZGdB7KjM_7Dv2_f6nII_heB3vmgc83OoxiRD25O1gyDk_Iu4rf-TEHzhjTK0Jvaymqk-ALrJa-vTUwcaLBr0c-12TE/s400/Polly+1_09.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Nor is Pollyanna's Big Bird singing a happy song. In the chart below, take special note of what happened to this index when that blue oscillator line plunged below the red +100 line after the two previous Bull peaks. The alarm bells are screaming. Very loudly.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXef4vKtrmYTYq3S5ZGhAFciYsv5IWXvjraIvDKwTb6AOydo-uhetnL0sTxDLnnN9xiZLoShWmsxjII-tQuZZxf3qW78yIy7eqhwokAtjqZxX8CWj7PPud7rl4PvatZt1YdU5xY9w2fJE/s1600/Polly+3+Bull+peaks.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXef4vKtrmYTYq3S5ZGhAFciYsv5IWXvjraIvDKwTb6AOydo-uhetnL0sTxDLnnN9xiZLoShWmsxjII-tQuZZxf3qW78yIy7eqhwokAtjqZxX8CWj7PPud7rl4PvatZt1YdU5xY9w2fJE/s400/Polly+3+Bull+peaks.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Thankfully, we have some tools which can be used to help us trade these volatile markets. The ASX200, for example, has been making regular stops and reversals at two sets of Fibonacci Retracement levels ... the blue ones from the 2007 peak to 2009 low, the red ones from the strong Bull market leading into that 2007 High.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbujnJ6EvFxhLvuaAZEto3Omjxf2x-M-_0nfROiu_bwueiIVI6LFUIKkdFZBynU2TdbYweFsEwkK32-FVbxHaN6FmEbuGI-iTs3LNig-vyBKJq8dDAiYY1wrdvOcnOLbGVXjo2t8Fz-aY/s1600/ASX+Fibs_01.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="295" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbujnJ6EvFxhLvuaAZEto3Omjxf2x-M-_0nfROiu_bwueiIVI6LFUIKkdFZBynU2TdbYweFsEwkK32-FVbxHaN6FmEbuGI-iTs3LNig-vyBKJq8dDAiYY1wrdvOcnOLbGVXjo2t8Fz-aY/s400/ASX+Fibs_01.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
These are long-range markers and should be used to inform any short or medium term trades you may be considering. In other words, if your daily and weekly charts are starting to show oscillator or momentum weakness as the price rises into any of these Fibonacci Rx targets you need to be very careful about staying Long ... and also need to move your Loss Stops much closer to the current price action at the time.
<br />
<br />
And we also have my long-range planetary price charts which can be used effectively for price targets ... up or down. The ASX 200 is quite simple. You know from past columns and the book that it is an index with a very strong relationship to Neptune.
<br />
<br />
Those price lines are marked with both grey and orange lines on the chart below and while there are often overshoots, the reliability of using Neptune prices as targets for moves in both directions, I think is too profitable, and too regular, to be ignored. Again, use these long-range targets to inform your decisions when daily and weekly charts are showing positive or negative divergence and the strong chance of a looming trend change.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
In Forecast 2015, I published a basic Elliott Wave diagram, where a Bull run is made up of 5 large waves, with (1), (3) and (5) being the major rally phases and (2) and (4) being the downtrend waves. I marked last year with a red arrow, indicating we were nearing the end of 5 intermediate waves within a long-range 3 rally and that would normally be followed by a major wave 4 correction.
<br />
<br />
That appears to have happened fairly accurately. If it remains so, we start 2016 at about where I have placed the black arrow. In short, the good times are running out of room and time.
<br />
<br />
Do NOT go to sleep at the wheel any time during 2016.

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>The month of August is showing its habit of being a wild month for stock trading.</b></span><br />
On Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrials have been in downtrend mode since May, but the Pollyanna index has been bouncing around in a trading range for all of 2015.<br />
<br />
Astrologically, we have a couple of major events. This weekend has Venus, the ruler of money and material wealth, in the middle of its current Retrograde phase.<br />
<br />
And the head honcho of the Old Gods, Jupiter, has now changed signs ... moving from extroverted Leo into the far more discreet and discerning symbolism of Virgo. Jupie loves the Fire signs, especially Leo, which is associated with gambling and speculative profits.<br />
<br />
The symbolism of Virgo is much more picky. It always want to see the evidence on the books ... books attended by accountants and subject to nit-picking auditors.<br />
<br />
We should see an accelerated shift in support for some sectors and a withdrawal from others. Since Virgo rules health stocks, it might be worth studying those charts more closely than usual.<br />
<br />
I'm going to concentrate in this edition on the position of the Australian stock market ... with a quick look at the SP500 and the DAX. In the last edition on July 13, I published the following chart and warned the ASX 200 was heading into a major hurdle.<br />
<br />
It was a major set of downtrending inner planet lines ... Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars ... which had a strong track record of sending the index into a dive.<br />
<br />
This was the chart:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBObX3tXdjrpkh3syoA1szSijOzf29juJ7ATm7v8lb19Iqjz6wHrZ-hpbn1cfRydL7gBW465-nCtgO9ISZOSuzG8-KU-oJKkpoKLsOo0oM-Snl6ETueo53ytn0jTB3c39lmxsyegu0zkU/s1600/ASX+Primaries.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBObX3tXdjrpkh3syoA1szSijOzf29juJ7ATm7v8lb19Iqjz6wHrZ-hpbn1cfRydL7gBW465-nCtgO9ISZOSuzG8-KU-oJKkpoKLsOo0oM-Snl6ETueo53ytn0jTB3c39lmxsyegu0zkU/s400/ASX+Primaries.png" width="400" /></a></div>
I said in that edition:<span style="color: #0c343d;"><i> "The trouble will come if the index rises into around $5700 by the end of the month."</i></span><br />
<br />
And this is what happened. On August 4, two trading days after the end of the month, the ASX 200 hit a momentary spike high of 5727 ... and then its wings fell off.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Which brings us to the potential good news. On the chart above, I've now included a set of <i>rising </i>primary planet lines. As we did last time, take a look over on the left of the chart.<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><br />
<br />
</b></span>The ASX flopped down until it made contact with a rising (pink) Mercury line ... and a new one of those is now very close to the current price action. There's no certainty the rising Mercury will be strong enough to change the downtrend back into full-on rally mode, but we can use some other techniques to get a sense of where the drop will stop.<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><br />
<br />
</b></span>Firstly, let's take a look at a weekly Bi-BB chart. The use of Bi-BB charts is outlined in The Technical Section of <a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop-IdiotandMoon.html" target="_blank">The Idiot & The Moon,</a> and is one of the two most strongly-recommended techniques for trading safely.<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><br />
<br />
</b></span>The first thing to take note of is the distinctly higher trough developing in the histograms of the fast MACD oscillator ... positive divergence. The second is the projection being made by the Fibonacci extension tool.<br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><br />
</b></span>A corrective downtrend tends to make what Elliott Wave analysts describe as an ABC pattern, where A is the first wave down, the B is a bounce, and the final downleg is the C wave. We appear to be well into the C wave.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihvSXnvqV7EDtJ46_WoDjfNKkx_LHYa3PUAW7mF0zsCKXa57wbgAgwnlfpTm7uRTSAQEklYL9tHARI8_SWf33ISVTtXkn8nG8ONAyx4_QlP6G-b-UrLPKHQTU-0-J-B8DRBArb2SrC8Ow/s1600/ASX+weekly+Bi-BB.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="313" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihvSXnvqV7EDtJ46_WoDjfNKkx_LHYa3PUAW7mF0zsCKXa57wbgAgwnlfpTm7uRTSAQEklYL9tHARI8_SWf33ISVTtXkn8nG8ONAyx4_QlP6G-b-UrLPKHQTU-0-J-B8DRBArb2SrC8Ow/s400/ASX+weekly+Bi-BB.png" width="400" /></a></div>
It is not at all unusual for the C wave to be some level of Fibonacci projection of the A wave. The index ended last week with a touch of the 618 extension of wave A. Often A and C are close to the same length and if that holds true this time, the ASX is headed to the 5100s before either a major uptrend, or even a resumption of the overall Bull trend, starts.<br />
<br />
We have a couple of alternative price targets to watch using Auntie's Weekly Planets chart, which most of you are now thoroughly familiar with.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLqIQ-UBg8npPUEOuhd5OachVMPDwWW1stFlJbPPUV3vhyphenhyphenX-NMPiyRPjuhiNjd8l-uqSW6ybrfi__vDFdMLq1cW27Tnv4LbIIDBbyerxIBHWczxagUmlYfpkrHPWgihQt55MJXk-tJWyA/s1600/ASX+Weekly+Planets.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLqIQ-UBg8npPUEOuhd5OachVMPDwWW1stFlJbPPUV3vhyphenhyphenX-NMPiyRPjuhiNjd8l-uqSW6ybrfi__vDFdMLq1cW27Tnv4LbIIDBbyerxIBHWczxagUmlYfpkrHPWgihQt55MJXk-tJWyA/s400/ASX+Weekly+Planets.png" /></a></div>
Our Big Bird oscillator is in a dive, strongly suggesting there is more downside to come before a reliable and safe bounce can take hold.<br />
<br />
Traders should be very cautious if any bounce in the next week or two cannot close decisively above those two blue Saturn lines which have just failed to hold the price lows. The price levels around 5200 and 5100 should also be monitored for bounce potential should the decline continue.<br />
<br />
Turning now to the SP500. I went into its position at some length in the July 13 edition and not much has changed, so you can have a look at that report in the Archives if you need a refresher on the price targets to watch.<br />
<br />
We are on the verge of getting a preliminary sell signal using the monthly Idiot chart. Pollyanna is still trying desperately to hold the upper tier line on the monthly Bi-BB chart, but both the fast MACD signal line and histograms have gone negative, so traders do need to be really cautious opening new Long positions on the 500.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Germany's DAX continues to be Europe's outperformer, but it is also into a multi-month correction. The chart below is its long-range planet price chart.<br />
<br />
It's playing inside a Pluto/Neptune price zone ... and it has a history of doing so. It occurred during the 2007 Bull peak and the 2009 Bear bottom.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

There is much talk about the woes of the Australian market being heavily under the influence of how China is going. It's an easy explanation for the talking heads, who seem to overlook the fact that Australia didn't soar with the eagles when Shanghai went into a major Moon shot this year.<br />
<br />
I'd rather trust the planets! And the Idiots. Long story short ... if Auntie goes into bounce mode shortly, hitching a ride on the rising primary planet lines, so too will the other Western indices.<br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>We are now entering one of the astrological high-impact zones of the year.</b></span><br />
In<a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop.html#forecast" target="_blank"> Forecast 2015</a>, published in January as a free download, available in the Archives and in the <a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop.html#forecast" target="_blank">Astrological Investing's shop</a>, I outlined this period from mid-July to
early-August with a heavy red border and indicated it was one of three
periods likely to be significant for stock prices.<br />
<br />
It has already been triggered by the passage of the Sun, but is about to get potentially even nastier.<br />
<br />
Mars will oppose Pluto and square Uranus. Mars is symbolic of drive and energy, Pluto rules big power, big money and taxes, and Uranus is representative of "the little guy" demanding a fair go and radical reform.<br />
<br />
We've discussed these many times in the past few years because of the long-running square aspect between Uranus and Pluto.<br />
<br />
It'll start to get even more intense this week when Venus squares Saturn, an aspect the big guy, Jupiter, will repeat in early August.<br />
<br />
And Venus, the ruler of money, material values and diplomatic relations, will soon go retrograde.<br />
<br />
Let's not worry ourselves too much about trying to predict the outcome of the astrological transits and, instead, take a look at where we are, primarily with Wall Street's SP500.
<br />
<br />
In March, I warned that the 500 was about to start running into a series of primary, downtrending planet lines likely to heavily stall the rally.
<br />
<br />
Incidentally, the same thing will happen to the Australian stock market in the next couple of weeks, but I'll deal with that later in this edition. In the June edition, I indicated traders had to keep a close eye on a primary Pluto level of $2084 for the Pollyanna index (SP500).
<br />
<br />
It lost the support of that line and is now on its third attempt to retest it from the downside. Strong recovery, especially on a weekly basis, could see Wall Street launch into a rally likely to take it to $2180 or higher. A failure to do so will see prices drop back down under the influence of the falling primary planet lines. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJy3yuTkAvSoOlOdNkVogwaowCSqfAN3vrh1xXQp4eSHAEGWWXbSDha2IdbI5v460kJN3z_enLIjgS6UtGcCLICLQxtVwqzyVX7E65bfV8r0OLu9VRMN5TqPM4Zt4wKcYJk4IjyaWB_nM/s1600/Polly+Primaries_12.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="297" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJy3yuTkAvSoOlOdNkVogwaowCSqfAN3vrh1xXQp4eSHAEGWWXbSDha2IdbI5v460kJN3z_enLIjgS6UtGcCLICLQxtVwqzyVX7E65bfV8r0OLu9VRMN5TqPM4Zt4wKcYJk4IjyaWB_nM/s400/Polly+Primaries_12.png" width="400" /></a></div>
Remember that we are now in the weakest portion of the stock market year and the "sell in May" theory may be taking effect, with a decline all the way to October.<br />
<br />
The chart below shows Pollyanna's long-range planetary price lines and a continued decline could see it drop a lot further yet.<br />

<a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop.html#forecast" target="_blank">Forecast 2015</a> also listed the major Bradley Model turn dates for the year ... and this is what has been happening, so far. I always warn you it is the dates which are important, not the direction nor the amplitude of the trend change.<br />
<br />
April 3 was two days off a low; May 22 was one day off the all-time closing high; June 8 was one day off a low. The next major turn date doesn't arrive until early October, though there are two minor dates in the next couple of weeks during this high-energy astrological zone.<br />

Now, let's take a technical look at how Pollyanna is holding up. Below is the long-range monthly Bi-BB chart, using a fast MACD as the oscillator and showing a trend pitchfork.<br />
<br />
For the past few years, the 500's prices have travelled very strongly within the upper tier of the monthly Bi-BBs. This very useful technique is outlined in The Technical Section of <a href="http://astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop-IdiotandMoon.html" target="_blank">The Idiot & The Moon.</a><br />
<br />
As well as that, Polly has been trying valiantly to ride along the top edge of the major, blue tyne of the pitchfork. We are starting to see signs of deterioration in the strength of that advance ... and with negative divergence in both the MACD signal lines and histograms.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGq61hEZEGqTU_-lquimmoq4noEWK_WMYLurZhxw20szUg4JKnuZkqeE6EMdMrLoMdIQBKe8RoOmzL70YeI-m7ziqh18gWvpXEWtL2K5bDzFprop8nWHBuOwctWALYHHr_xl7IjuX3W_Y/s1600/Polly+Bull+Fork.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="311" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGq61hEZEGqTU_-lquimmoq4noEWK_WMYLurZhxw20szUg4JKnuZkqeE6EMdMrLoMdIQBKe8RoOmzL70YeI-m7ziqh18gWvpXEWtL2K5bDzFprop8nWHBuOwctWALYHHr_xl7IjuX3W_Y/s400/Polly+Bull+Fork.png" width="400" /></a></div>
The deterioration is also evident in a weekly chart, where the pitchfork's tynes are anchored at the first major correction after the Bear bottomed in 2009. The angle of the uptrend continues to hold, but price is finding it increasingly difficult to sustain ... and the Big Bird oscillator doesn't seem convinced that the current correction has completed.<br />
<br />
In short, we all need to be very careful in these few weeks into early August.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfDra6b-krjwJMjiEaZLZSfOsSrBN1HPwc1yATb6kGUcFrJ7jcDOReWbwL2DoaMESU7w-v7tHXcZwIAc-I3isF52rrphBrtl67lXXwVyEpigBC_Cn43jb0qVOzKC5-4-UfVV1PGya4R6s/s1600/Polly+Weekly+Fork.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="305" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfDra6b-krjwJMjiEaZLZSfOsSrBN1HPwc1yATb6kGUcFrJ7jcDOReWbwL2DoaMESU7w-v7tHXcZwIAc-I3isF52rrphBrtl67lXXwVyEpigBC_Cn43jb0qVOzKC5-4-UfVV1PGya4R6s/s400/Polly+Weekly+Fork.png" width="400" /></a></div>
That might be particularly true for the Australian market. It is now facing the same problem which has thwarted the Wall Street rallies in recent months ... a heavy set of downtrending inner planet lines almost immediately ahead.<br />
<br />
If you take a quick eyeball at the left-hand side of the chart, you get an idea of what contact with these once-a-year downtrend lines can do to the index!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi64OzS4P_VQwLKl49JmNxtCtaiIBIkk-UqxLY4lwI_m1H227pZ2YztTCPB2IaacFNxfdPmijwhax2dEZYhcBheKV9uxOMPi1lMNcQm_lX3kzKZgi34pippAjXnPrYh9r2sVgfaypej7Jc/s1600/ASX+Primaries.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi64OzS4P_VQwLKl49JmNxtCtaiIBIkk-UqxLY4lwI_m1H227pZ2YztTCPB2IaacFNxfdPmijwhax2dEZYhcBheKV9uxOMPi1lMNcQm_lX3kzKZgi34pippAjXnPrYh9r2sVgfaypej7Jc/s400/ASX+Primaries.png" width="400" /></a></div>
The trouble will come if the index rises into around $5700 by the end of the month. During all the volatility of the past couple of months, the ASX 200 has been routinely playing with blue Saturn price lines on its Weekly Planets chart.<br />
<br />
The Big Bird oscillator isn't hopeful, at this stage ... and you can see the resistance around the $5700 level is also emphasised on this chart. In any case, these price targets have been working exceptionally well for weeks now ... for initiating Longs or Shorts!<br />

I indicated then that the SP500 faced strong headwinds as it ran into primary planet downtrend lines and that even if it overcame those, there was a stack of resistance to overcome in "the next 20 to 30 points"<br />
<br />
At that time, the Pollyanna index was at $2102. It ended last week at $2107 ... after putting in some sort of top at $2134.<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b> </b></span><br />
<br />
June kicks off with Mercury halfway through a Retrograde phase and it's not unusual for a trend change to develop at that halfway mark.<br />
<br />
We also have another of the year's major Bradley Model turn dates approaching, around June 8. The details of the Bradley dates were provided in <a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop.html#forecast" target="_blank">Forecast 2015</a>, which you can read, or re-read, in the Archives.<br />
<br />
In this edition, we'll take a look at exactly how Pollyanna has been coping with the long-range planetary price lines.<br />
<br />
And, also, how the greenback gold price is holding up.<br />
<br />
In the April edition, I showed how the 500 had started to bump into primary downtrend lines. The track record of contact with these lines was dealt with in the March 30 edition.<br />
<br />
We expected that price would get caught up in that downtrending planetary jumble. And it did ...<br />

In the past couple of weeks, the index has tried to break northwards from the downward pressure, but has been unable to reach as high as strong, horizontal resistance provided by Uranus and Neptune price lines around 2140.<br />
<br />
The Pluto line at 2084 has provided support in the past during this churning, sideways grind and should be watched closely in the days ahead.<br />
<br />
The grind has been going on for months and it's likely that this month will see the issue resolved with either a breakout or a breakdown.<br />
<br />
Many commentators are leaning heavily towards a breakdown. The only problem with that is when people are expecting a breakdown, the market usually bursts northwards.<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><br />
<br />
</b></span>In <a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop-IdiotandMoon.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><i>The Technical Section</i> of <i>The Idiot & The Moon,</i></b></span> </a>I showed you how to create a simple, hand-drawn trendline and use that as the basis for creating channels which can be used to forecast future price moves.<br />
<br />
The basis is that indices and individual stocks have a strong tendency to repeat a particular angle over-and-over again and that by taking parallels of the original line you can create a reliable roadmap. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJXftvo1QNGPYn4lRUUzjUhPNvq4plDU8RsVVHG5XQmPX0mlrxQkZbFhlEPmzJPrhBbDjzgGLteIBunfdObBcHF-eG73OXhVz0Eo1eRSixAlM3mOIFYgvIxo6hrLkqE85JMX7C-NJbf4Q/s1600/Polly+wide+angle.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJXftvo1QNGPYn4lRUUzjUhPNvq4plDU8RsVVHG5XQmPX0mlrxQkZbFhlEPmzJPrhBbDjzgGLteIBunfdObBcHF-eG73OXhVz0Eo1eRSixAlM3mOIFYgvIxo6hrLkqE85JMX7C-NJbf4Q/s400/Polly+wide+angle.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
As we can see, it has been quite useful in determining the angle which is repeatedly in play for this long Bull run.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl3_4h-eKQ1HPFL9VNd3iPTlRMvTfpEODkq3FNjLZUjgtRTU8YU9eMgd4wGJFfdVNZh2Ir3LnUnrkRrPDaooqwefvWEWbz9XzuGf4N_PS4PchHf1SNHGb7eQewQ0Okpq7UiE2WbIRPGhg/s1600/Close-up+angle.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl3_4h-eKQ1HPFL9VNd3iPTlRMvTfpEODkq3FNjLZUjgtRTU8YU9eMgd4wGJFfdVNZh2Ir3LnUnrkRrPDaooqwefvWEWbz9XzuGf4N_PS4PchHf1SNHGb7eQewQ0Okpq7UiE2WbIRPGhg/s400/Close-up+angle.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The 500 closed out last week falling off one instance of that rising angle ... and with the green Fast Bird dropping deeply, warning of the potential for more downside to come in the short-term.<br />
<br />
Obviously, further price gains in the index are getting more and more difficult. Negative divergence continues to build in many monthly oscillators and the danger of a large correction continues to grow.<br />
<br />
The ASX 200 has been stalled for the past 3 months at a double Fibonacci barrier and its recent price highs have arrived with negative divergence in the Big Bird oscillator. The oscillator has not yet declined below the +100 upper red line in the indicator panel and the May monthly price bar has ended in mid-range, indicating a high level of indecision between both buyers and sellers.<br />

<br />
Now let's take a look at the price of gold measured in US dollars, starting with the daily Sun/Pluto chart.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJPZ-GH-Cwq5I-AVCa2su3DJJPvtA6JFbEMH-pt-7S7PugWeJLsh04ZeI_ERQLaDhO3lrmtM6MXmEOrNKigQn54UJx4hNXvJRymUzmpkhO3aqYW61pRIiyLqNxcManu4FpoO6KUe6wg7U/s1600/POG+1_06.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJPZ-GH-Cwq5I-AVCa2su3DJJPvtA6JFbEMH-pt-7S7PugWeJLsh04ZeI_ERQLaDhO3lrmtM6MXmEOrNKigQn54UJx4hNXvJRymUzmpkhO3aqYW61pRIiyLqNxcManu4FpoO6KUe6wg7U/s400/POG+1_06.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The minor Pluto price line at $1185 continues to provide reasonably strong support, which is even more obvious when viewed on a weekly chart ...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWk6dTDqtFP4ZdTSimeWck2HteayNTF0R1gPufFv2nvCB1sOd8aBXEZiBdjJHXnfA_u_WR9jYFTt2AS9nu5IG0OpbnYWewlKMZGF7PgajnijJA84Yh37KBFP0i1wVnOrG72DNUqUbe4e8/s1600/POG+2_03.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="303" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWk6dTDqtFP4ZdTSimeWck2HteayNTF0R1gPufFv2nvCB1sOd8aBXEZiBdjJHXnfA_u_WR9jYFTt2AS9nu5IG0OpbnYWewlKMZGF7PgajnijJA84Yh37KBFP0i1wVnOrG72DNUqUbe4e8/s400/POG+2_03.png" width="400" /></a></div>
We can see this line first came into play in June 2013. What is interesting is that each subsequent visit to this line, and the stronger, lower one around $1155, has been met with <span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><i>higher</i> </b></span>troughs in the Big Bird oscillator. That's<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b> <i>positive</i></b></span> divergence, a sign that internal strength continues to build, despite the constant shenanigans with the price, especially on the futures market.<br />
<br />
And that positive divergence is even more obvious on a monthly Bi-BB chart, using a fast MACD as the oscillator. Pressure for a major gold price rally has been building. It's certainly worth keeping a close eye on individual gold mining stocks, especially those with a relatively low cost-of-production.<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b> </b></span><br />

Well, I think that's enough for this edition. As I said in <a href="http://www.astrologicalinvesting.com/html/shop-IdiotandMoon.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><i>The Idiot & The Moon</i>,</b></span></a> the smartest thing you can do in trading is shut-up and shut out the constant barrage of noise. This sideways churning is probably driving a lot of people totally nuts ... and that's not a good state of mind for making rational decisions.<br />
<br />
Still, it has been going on now for so long that a big move, one way or the other, is becoming imminent.<br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>The coming week, heading into various religious festivals, also brings the first significant Bradley Model turn date for 2015.</b></span><br />
<br />
The Full Moon next weekend will be a lunar eclipse ... sister of the recent solar eclipse ... and the configuration will again trigger the broad implications of the long-running Uranus-Pluto square we've talked about many times in the past few years.<br />
<br />
Uranus and Pluto have now completed exactitude of the square for the last time, but the "orb" of the aspect will continue to linger.<br />
<br />
Jupiter, head honcho of the Old Gods, will also be strongly influential in the next few weeks, as it goes Direct and receives a trine from the Sun. Strong Jupiter periods tend to exaggerate either optimism or fear, so we can expect some explosive moves ... one way or the other.<br />
<br />
The period finds Wall Street's SP500 index beginning to bump its highs against some major planetary resistance and it's that we'll spend a little time looking at in this edition.<br />
<br />
There are also updates on the ASX 200, Germany's DAX and London's FTSE<br />
<br />
About once a year, depending on the speed of rallies or downturns, the SP500 comes into contact with primary price lines from the inner planets ... the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars.<br />
<br />
In our first chart, we'll look at how these tend to impact rally phases in the index. It's a weekly price chart showing only the Sun and Venus primary lines. Price tends to rise at an angle closely aligned to the annual movement of the planets.<br />
<br />
Sometimes price stalls and goes sideways, until it picks up a boost from contact with the next set of rising price lines. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBLySNpL-b3-OVuWqLKmTui5rg5XXu6TK1nsH1k2Ia8W8CxPtOP5Qal83wAGui28Q3VsBmJ9RGiQGRvU57IEpa7qtY0yHsJB0yxQJxYro1WXPz8AjfXYidARnvrFifnRrvON7oEg2-iag/s1600/Polly+Sun++Venus+uptrends.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBLySNpL-b3-OVuWqLKmTui5rg5XXu6TK1nsH1k2Ia8W8CxPtOP5Qal83wAGui28Q3VsBmJ9RGiQGRvU57IEpa7qtY0yHsJB0yxQJxYro1WXPz8AjfXYidARnvrFifnRrvON7oEg2-iag/s400/Polly+Sun++Venus+uptrends.png" /></a></div>
<br />
But, what goes up must come down, at least to some degree, and our next chart shows the Sun-Venus impact on the timing and speed of major downturns and significant Bear plunges.<br />
<br />
Contact with these downtrend planetary price lines does not always produce a major downturn. But, when one is becoming due ...<br />
<br />
Well, the impact can be dramatic.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgltm_N5yKbnJBYYQCDMia75J4RPZNShAFUsoct8afnkmxwT5ohYp-Wh_hd6lQMcKBTr5NJ2dKkvP8HK0sayPODegSB_NgVHcd5s4Dw5X35l3_SnP0sN_Peo1Sd61s9Awf6TjdwAn6EJyg/s1600/Polly+Sun+Venus+Primary+Downtrends.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgltm_N5yKbnJBYYQCDMia75J4RPZNShAFUsoct8afnkmxwT5ohYp-Wh_hd6lQMcKBTr5NJ2dKkvP8HK0sayPODegSB_NgVHcd5s4Dw5X35l3_SnP0sN_Peo1Sd61s9Awf6TjdwAn6EJyg/s400/Polly+Sun+Venus+Primary+Downtrends.png" /></a></div>
<br />
In our third chart, I have included Mercury and Mars into the mix and we will take a close-up view to show the sort of danger the 500 now faces if it cannot burst above the resistance of the planetary downtrend lines.
What it suggests is that Wall Street is now very close to hitting a major hurdle ... a set of planetary influences which almost always produce a multi-week correction.<br />

<br />
Our next chart shows the more horizontal price lines of the outer planets and provides the major probable targets for rallies and declines. Regular readers will have become quite familiar with these and know they provide excellent Entry and Exit levels for trades ... if the oscillators on shorter-term charts are showing distinct potential for a trend turn.<br />

<br />
Of the other major Western stock indices, Germany is the strongest. And just maybe too strong. Its northbound breakout in the past few months catapulted it above what should have been, based on historical behaviour, a strong resistance barrier.<br />
<br />
And our Big Bird oscillator isn't really overjoyed by the move.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihUf9clTcK53TAfh6ZG29yIZH2SAILDmHBrIRktCeoYQVsl0toyQGFdefeSRfMoz11onztnyXZjBGJWH18KbfI1eatoa5qt6YqYmnj7vgLJAgXD_b3xNuR5REyzqVXdrvO0UEcqwiI-0c/s1600/DAX+Long+Range+Planets_01.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihUf9clTcK53TAfh6ZG29yIZH2SAILDmHBrIRktCeoYQVsl0toyQGFdefeSRfMoz11onztnyXZjBGJWH18KbfI1eatoa5qt6YqYmnj7vgLJAgXD_b3xNuR5REyzqVXdrvO0UEcqwiI-0c/s400/DAX+Long+Range+Planets_01.png" /></a></div>
<br />
While the DAX has left its two previous Bull peaks way behind, the British market continues to struggle against the long-range planetary price lines which acted as a slaughter house for the earlier Bulls.
<br />
<br />
Allow a little leeway for the posted prices because they're "wavy" and exactitude depends entirely on timing for the monthly bars.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Australia is also faltering at a hurdle ... in the ASX 200's case, a double Fibonacci Retracement barrier. The index managed to break free of the doldrums in the past few months and put on a spurt.
<br />
<br />
There is some disagreement about exactly where the current blue Fibo Rx level lies because of data differences at the 2009 low ... but all levels of the blue lines displayed below have been important during the past few years and the data difference is not really major.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
You'll note that on the chart above, the Big Bird oscillator is starting to sing off-key and that it is a double Fibonacci barrier.
<br />
<br />
Turning our attention to the ASX 200's Weekly Planets chart, we can note a primary Saturn barrier not far ahead at around 6050, with a Neptune level at 6082.
<br />
<br />
Weekly Big Bird is even more distinctly off-key than his monthly version as price battles to overcome the minor Saturn resistance around 5942.
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And, yes, I've been terribly slack this year ... first time in years I've been able to enjoy the southern Summer and, literally, take some time out to smell the roses.
<br />
<br />
And they smell so much better than Pollyanna!
<br />
<br />
I will try to include the Indian/Asian indices in the next few weeks.
<br />
<br />
In the meantime, just keep a weather eye on the near-term charts, especially with the Bradley date approaching (all of which was covered in the Forecast in January) and as Pollyanna bumps her silly noggin against the inner planet downtrend lines.<br />

<b>The New Moon in Pisces marks the beginning of the Chinese Calendar. </b>The exact new moon time is at 07:48 a.m. on 19-February, 2015 in China's time zone.<br />
<br />
<b>The Chinese calendar is based on a lunisolar year </b>(relating to both the Moon and the Sun) - Because the first new moon after the Winter Solstice is the <i>12th month </i>of the Chinese calendar year, usually the<i> second new moon of the year in the Georgian calendar</i> is actually the first lunar month in the Chinese calendar. Chinese New Year usually falls in mid February. (Even though China now uses the Georgian calendar, their new year is based on the ancient Chinese calendar.)<br />
<br />
New Year’s Day is the most important date in the Chinese calendar, and is normally a three day work holiday, although some may stretch the holiday even longer. Celebrations actually continue for the entire month!<br />
<br />
<b>Is 2015 The Year of the Goat or Sheep? </b> It is the Year of the Goat, but sometimes is referred to as the “Year of the Sheep” because of confusion which stems from the translation of the "yang" Chinese character - which can be translated as either a goat or a sheep.<br />
<br />
<b>The Goat is the eighth animal of the Chinese Zodiac.</b> Goats are resilient and create their success through perseverance; they are thought of as gentle and sympathetic, but have a strong sense of justice. According to Chinese astrologers, luck within careers will fluctuate for those born in the year of the goat and their financial fortune will be average. However, they are said to possess a power to turn their fortune around – so that when things seem bleak, their luck may change. This year looks good for health.<br />
<br />
<b>What is your Chinese Sign? </b>Many Chinese Sign calculators do not account for the non-alignment of the two calendars, using Gregorian-calendar years rather than official Chinese New Year dates! <br />
<br />
It is important to check your sign based on a <i>Chinese calendar </i>- you may have miscalculated your Chinese sign using a Georgian calendar! Here is a link to some interesting Chinese Zodiac trivia and a calculator to find your sign. <a href="http://www.char4u.com/content/chinese-zodiac-sign/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.char4u.com/content/chinese-zodiac-sign/</a><br />
<br />
<b>The Chinese 60 Year Cycle</b>An uncomplicated explanation of the 60 year cycle - and fairly decent history of Chinese Astrology - can be found on Wikipedia: <i>"The 60-year cycle consists of two separate cycles interacting with each other. The first is the cycle of ten heavenly stems, namely the Five Elements (in order Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water) in their Yin and Yang forms.<br /><br />The second is the cycle of the twelve Zodiac animal signs (shengxiào) or Earthly Branches . They are in order as follows: the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. In Vietnam the rabbit is replaced by the cat.<br /><br />This combination creates the 60-year cycle due to the least amount of years (least common multiple) it would take to get from Yang Wood Rat to its next iteration, which always starts with Yang Wood Rat and ends with Yin Water Pig." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_astrology "</i><br />
<br />
Hope you are planning something special - 2015 New Year celebrations continue until the the moon is full, March 5!<br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>We are currently in the middle of the first Mercury Retrograde cycle of the year.</b></span><br />
<br />
It happens a few times, for a few weeks, each year and they tend to be periods where stock markets are choppy ... with changes in direction every few days.<br />
<br />
Communications can easily become <i>miscommunications</i> during Mercury Rx ... and not because the planet is "doing" things.<br />
<br />
Rocks and giant gas balls Out There are just ... there.<br />
<br />
The astrological symbolism is that WE tend to become inattentive and prone to making silly mistakes during these periods.<br />
<br />
For the moment, I have nothing to add to the 2015 Forecast published in January. However, I am slowly working on reports for individual indices and can now include the 2015 outlook for the Australian stock market.<br />

<b>It Moves Backward, you say?!?!</b><br />
Of course, Mercury doesn't actually reverse it's path around the sun!
Everyone knows this!<br />
<br />
<b>Retrograde motion is the<i> apparent motion of a
planet </i>to move in a direction opposite to earth. </b>It's all an illusion!<br />
<br />
The Earth
completes its orbit in 365 days (+ a few hours), which is a slower trip
around the Sun than the planet Mercury has; thus, Earth will
periodically overtake its orbit, resulting in the illusion of Mercury's
backward motion. This happens 3 to 4 times a given year.<br />
<br />
The
outer planets don't move as fast in their orbits as Earth, but even still, when
planet Earth passes their orbits it results in the same phenomenon. <br />
<br />
<b>The
outer planets retrograde period begin and end when the planet is
approximately past 120 degrees (or Trine) from the Sun. </b>The center of
their retrograde motion occurs when the planet is exactly opposite the
Sun. <br />
<br />
<b>The inner planets, Venus and Mercury, can never
be trine or in opposition to the Sun. Their retrograde cycles are tied
to their conjunctions with the Sun. </b><br />
When Venus and Mercury are conjunct
the Sun they transition from morning star to evening star.<br />
<br />
<b>Retrograde Sun? You're kidding, right?</b><br />
The Sun and Moon <b>never </b>appear retrograde from planet Earth. <i>However, the Sun does appear to move backward from the surface of Mercury!</i><br />
<br />
Interestingly, Mercury has a most eccentric orbit. (view image above)<br />
<br />
If we were able to view the Sun from Mercury's surface, we would observe the Sun rising part way, then reverse and set before rising again, all within the same Mercurian day. Thus, to the hypothetical observer on Mercury, the <i>Sun</i> appears to move in a retrograde direction! <b><br />
<br />
</b>This apparent retrograde motion of the Sun from Mercury's surface occurs four Earth days before the conjunction of Mercury and the Sun; the Sun's "normal" motion resumes four days after the conjunction. <br />
<b><br />
<b>Intense Mischievousness of Mercury
during Stations</b><br />
</b>The apparent motion of Mercury stopping to change direction – the station - is felt by us Earthlings more intensely than during retrograde motion. <i> I can't help but wonder, </i>is the retrograde Sun viewed from Mercury's surface the reason stations of Mercury are felt by us Earthlings more intensely?<b> Who knows?<br />
</b><br />
<br />
***<br />
<b>RETROGRADE, JANUARY 21ST - February 11</b><br />
On the 21st of January, Mercury STOPPED its forward moving direction and began to move in the opposite direction - it will do this until it will reach 01.18 degrees of Aquarius (where it was on January 5th).<br />
<br />
The Mischievous Maker Mercury will stop again on February 11th, change direction, and begin to move forward once again. <br />
<b><br />
<b>WHAT IS MERCURY'S SHADOW PERIOD?</b><br />
</b>The time it takes for Mercury to move between 01.18 degrees of Aquarius to 17.05 degrees of Aquarius - where it was on January 5 and return back to where it was on January 21 - moving first forward, then backward, and then forward again - is approximately 59 days. This is what astrologer's call Mercury's Shadow Period. <br />
<br />
Astrologer's say this entire shadow period is subject to difficulties related to anything the planet rules astrologically, and we all need to proceed cautiously during this time. However, what gets everyone's attention is when it is considered actually retrograde for approximately 21 days!<br />
<br />
It is NOT a good time to sign contracts, or purchase big ticket
items if it is not something you <i>normally</i> do during daily activities during Mercury retrograde. One should go about their normal course of
business and daily activities of course! But it is a time to be cautious. New, out of the ordinary, important decisions
made during Mercury retrograde often come back and regrettably haunt you
- and often they are reversed.<br />
<br />
Basically, it is a good time to
do things that start with “re”. Example: read, research, recycle,
repair, restore, review. Now is the best time
to clean up and finish up with those old projects we have been
procrastinating doing, and wait to begin new projects.<br />
<br />
Oh, and if you haven't, CAREFULLY back up your computer! Computers tend to be buggy, and crash during Mercury Rx.<br />
<br />
<b>MERCURY AND THE MARKET</b><br />
During Mercury Rx the markets are
unpredictable and volatile. Especially
a few days before and after the
stationing periods (when Mercury stops
to change direction).<b> </b><br />
<br />
Mishaps and misinterpreted
communications can happen. And during Mercury's retrograde chances are greater that they can happen. So be very,
very careful when pressing the buy/sell button if you decide to be in
the market!<br />
<br />
Kaye Shinker used to remind us that usually
about half way through the retrograde cycle you will see a
change in the direction of the market only to return to where they
started 90% of the time. <br />
<br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>It's time
for me to take a break, so I'll take this opportunity to wish everyone a
happy holiday season and, especially, a happy New Year.</b></span><br />
<br />
Markets tumbled last week as we head into another direct hit of the long-running Uranus/Pluto square due to "finish" ... at last ... in 2015!<br />
<br />
The key price levels for the SP500 and DAX were published last weekend, along with still-relevant Weekly Planet levels for the ASX.<br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px;"><b><br />
</b></span>Charts for the FTSE, Nifty and some other indices have also been published recently and you can find them in the Archives.<br />
<br />
There will be no annual Forecast this year and some major changes for the <a href="http://www.theidiotandthemoon.com/eyeofra.html" target="_blank"><i>Eye of Ra</i></a> next year. It's unlikely the Eye will appear each weekend.
<br />
<br />
Instead, I'll probably do only one major report each month, incorporating much of the detail I normally include in the annual Forecast.
<br />
<br />
Hopefully, the changes will allow me more time just to enjoy Life ... as well as writing occasionally, in non-market report weeks, about the broader social changes being influenced by <i>The Spooky Stuff</i>.
<br />
<br />
Until sometime in early January ... Best wishes and thanks for your company during 2014!

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> </span><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>Wall
Street continues to make marginal new Highs, though the SP 500 is still
shy of touching a major planetary price barrier at 2082.</b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> </span>Trading on Wall Street was relatively subdued last week, despite some strong astrological aspects involving Jupiter and Uranus.<br />
<br />
There are more of them to come, especially over the next week when Jupiter goes Retrograde, Venus moves to Capricorn, the Sun trines Jupiter ... and we get another exact hit of Uranus square Pluto.<br />
<br />
Europe, especially Germany, is now bouncing back from weakness earlier in the year. You might recall that some months ago we talked about the DAX running into long-range overhead planetary price resistance.<br />
<br />
It was strong enough to send the DAX into a multi-month downfall. However, the pick-up in performance since the low in mid-October has lifted the German market back into the same territory.<br />
<br />
European traders are hopeful that the ECB will now follow Japan, taking over monetary expansion from the US Federal Reserve.<br />
<br />
We'll look at the key levels now.<br />
<br />
Below is the long-range planetary price chart for the DAX. Midway through 2014, the index ran into the Pluto barrier priced in the early 10,000s, prompting a strong correction.<br />
<br />
The index is now making another attempt to breakout northwards. At this stage, the Bird Bird oscillator seems very dubious. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The SP500 continues to fall just short of touching its overhead Pluto barrier in the early 2080s. It's entirely possible the resistance could be breached by a gap Open, opening potential targets in the 2100s. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
A couple of weeks ago, we discussed the under-performance of the ASX200 and I suggested a Uranus price line, then priced at 5270 could provide a stronger level of support.<br />
<br />
The index had a one-day dive below the level last Monday, but recovered the following morning. The weekly resistance from Saturn lines around 5382 and 5417 need to be overcome before the index has a chance of challenging the August highs.<i> </i><br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> </span><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"><b>American stock indices changed little during last week's Thanksgiving-shortened trading.</b></span><br />
<br />
India continues to hit new Highs, but now faces a technical challenge after the Nifty hit 8617 last week. That's a precise 100% extension of the first recovery rally from October 2008 to November 2010, anchoring the current rally from the December low of 2011.<br />
<br />
Germany's DAX was also a strong performer last week, but many other indices mirrored the go-nowhere behaviour of Wall Street.<br />
<br />
The SP500 is still trying to reach the planetary barrier at 2082 shown in last weekend's charts. Astrologically, we are heading into statistically negative Full Moon next weekend, but the key day in Euro-American markets is likely to be Thursday when the Sun trines Uranus, Venus trines Jupiter and Mars leaves Capricorn for Aquarius.<br />
<br />
As we've talked about before, trines have a tendency to break barriers and Uranus, in particular, likes to break things. With the Sun and Venus both in Sagittarius interacting with Uranus and Jupiter, we would expect to see some exaggerated moves ... simply because Sadge, the FatBoy and El Weirdo never do anything with quiet good taste and discretion.
<br />
<br />
So, we're likely to see the professionals return to their desks this week, bouyantly optimistic about where it's all going ... or gripped by fear that they've run too far, too fast.
<br />
<br />
Thursday should give us a clue.<br />
