Wednesday Recap

 

As expected in my last post the Mars energy was mostly consumed on the ground in Iraq. The Uranus energy after yesterday's close resulted in a postiive finsih to a flat day. The only reqal movement was overnight. I doubt it was the Mars energy manifesting ahead of the exact Moon oppose Mars midday.

 

I think it was forward energy from Venus trine Uranus (exact @ 5:46 pm Wednesday). One interpretation of this aspect is "strange urges". It has a window of 1 - 3 days on either side. Perhaps this accounts for Goldman valuing GOOG at $215. Sounds strange enough to me. :lol:

 

Happy Acres, We Have a Problem

 

By most technical indicators we had a sell signal Friday, but the holiday trading looks to be negating that. I am looking for a pullback to retest the breakout zones on the major indexes. However, if that doesn't start happening next week, the window is closed and it's off to the races. (As if we're not at the track now. :lol: My bets are on a horse named Jickiss.) Not a good sign for the bears. This is very much characteric of major price advance sections of the move from the March 2003 lows. Sell sginals are negated. Downward slopes of cycles are inconsequential and negative astro periods are brief and have minimal downside impact.

 

Friday 11/26

 

There are no hard aspects exact during the abbreviated trading day. The Moon enters Gemini before dawn EST. After the close we have Sun square Uranus exact around 3 pm and Moon squares Uranus is exact around 11 pm and the trading day is abbeviated. Both are close enough in orb for a T-square around 3 pm. (Will post a chart later if I can figure out how to get the file size small enough). Jupiter trine Uranus is still in effect. Consequently a moderate upwards movement in price, especially techs and biotechs is likely as a continuation of late Wednesday's upturn.

 

Monday

 

Soup's nightmare. Looks like a positive day. Jupiter Trine Neptune overnight (we will see two more occurrences of this in 2005. Moon Trine Venus 11 am (attractiveness). Moon trine Mars (vitality, force) and Moon square Jupiter 7:30 pm (expansiveness).

 

With Moon square Jupiter after the close it look's like a toppy day. Especially considering Tuesday's astro.

 

Mahendra, in the portion of his newsletter posted on the free portion of his site as a teaser, told his subscribers to go short Friday 11/26. Consequently, there may be some soiled shorts on Monday depending on the size of his subscriber base. Depends on how deep their pockets are.

 

Wonder what Crawford's hotline subscribers are doing? If you're reading this Bareister, I expect a report. :lol: If they are short too, I would expect a good post holiday up day. :P

 

Tuesday

 

Mercury goes retrograde around 7 am. Expect communications foul-ups until it goes stationary again.

 

The main aspect during trading hours is Mars square Neptune @ 10:25 am. Mars = force, aggression, vitality, will. Neptune = liqudity, water, oil, illusion. A square is a stress aspect. Possbile interptetations are underhanded tactics, either on the trading floor or on the battlefield. Covert operations perhaps. Chemical/biological warfare. It can also be a loss of will or enthusiasm. It should be a strong negative for trading. Note that Jupiter Trine Neptune is still in effect. Combine all this with Mercury being retro and things can get interesting, to say the least.

 

We also have Moon conjunct Saturn around 11 pm. Tragic explosions. Sometimes grave. Sometimes freakish like fireworks for a circus. Something that stands out from the usual background rumble from Iraq. This occurs monthly, but keep in mind 911 was one day after a Moon conjunct Saturn. Usually a 1 - 2 day window.

 

Combine this with Mars square Neptune and Mercury retorgrade and caution is advised. It wouldn't hurt to hedge your longs with some index puts.

 

Wednesday

 

No hard aspects. Negative price action would be expected based on Tuesday's astro. If we get only a minor dip Tuesday and Wednesday, cover your shorts and go long.

 

Thursday

 

Complex to say the least. We really won't be able to read this with more clarity until we see how the first part of the week plays out.

 

We start out with Moon Square Venus around 6:30 am (valuation issues, attractiveness) Followed by Moon opposed Neptune around 8 am (liqudity issues). Keep in mind aound 8 am would be the bond opening (assuming they trade in NYC and not Chicago). Moon sextile Jupiter around 9 am (expansive, positive). Moon square Mars around 10:45 am (force, agression, could play out in Iraq rather than in equities).

 

Venus conjunct Mars is around 3:20 pm. Not exact but close enough for action on valuation.

 

In the evening we have Venus square Neptune around 9:20 pm. I have already mentioned this in last week's posts, Venus = value, attractiveness. Neptune = liquidity, water, oil, illusion. Also Moon square Mars around 10:46 pm. Mars = froce, action.

 

I would expect currency or inflation issues to come to the fore here, or if not, the seeds to be sown for something that will come to the fore shortly. Think of Donald Coxe's "Rule of page 16". It is the events buried on page 16 that are on their way to page 1 on which you make or lose money. Maybe we see a major producer pricing their oil in Euros.

To this I'll add AnotherOne's law: "What doesn't bite you in the @ss now will surely bite you in the @ss later. Especially, if you're not looking." The question is how much later? Or put in the word's of an obscure Detroit playwright: "All living things must eat or be eaten. We only ask that we not be eaten today."

The more I think about what I just posted for the week ahead. This is starting to look like a Short the bonds/TLT & financials. Long gold and techs. BondsTLT and fiancials would likely be impacted by an oil/currency shock, but less so the techs. Could be that we see money flow in that direction.

 

Gold is pulling away from it's moving average and the gold shares are pulling back. Looking at $Gold, the 30/60/90 day moving averages need to diverge more before it corrects. I won't add new positions here, just raise stops on current positions until they stop out.

 

$Gold daily--2 years:

Newmont still holding above the 30 day MA. As long as this holds and the 30 day MA doesn't cross below the 60 and 90 it's a hold. If it falls below the 30 day MA and the 30 crosses below the 60 and 90 then past chart action would predict a drop in price below the 90 day MA before it bounces back.

I posted charts of Genzyme (DeadCharts snapshots) last week. One day it looks poised to break out of handle. Another day it look's poised to break down. Worked it up in SharpCharts. Will probably buy Dec 55 calls on Friday. Really should have done this on a dip to the bottom of the handle earlier this week. Will probalby close out 500 shares of WHT to raise the capital.

After playing around with Acrobat Distiller (ScanSoft's product hoses the symbols) Photoshop 6 and ImageReady 3 (yes I should upgrade sooner or later, but my wallet likes later. :lol: ), lets see how an 11/26 chart for Uranus squared to Sun and Moon goes. (1) Create ChartWheel in AspectTrader. (2) Print to a pdf file. (3) open in ImageReady and save to a psd file. (4) Save as a optimized jpg file.

A-one, thanks for all the great work and info you're posting. Really appreciate it.

 

as far as Tuesday --

 

"Tuesday

It can also be a loss of will or enthusiasm."

 

Could this be realization of the impact of oil shock III? Dare I use the C-word?

Mercury retrograde -- internet going down at a heavy trading time? (like it hasn't before, ha ha.)

Drano, it could very well be. If not Tuesday, this could happen Thursday. Keep in mind that the trigger could get pulled this week, but the public may not catch on until later. Especially with Mercury retrograde. It should be an interesting week.

Enough of an annoyance factor from the Sun, Moon, Uranus T-Square put a damper on trading during the last hour resulting in a flat close. This overpowered the usual post-holiday "E-Trade crowd" who usually bid up any techs in sight.

 

Though the USD has dropped to new lows, the 93 lows have not yet been taken out. The furthest back I have been able to go with USD charts is 1985. Anyone know of an online source for charts going back to the 70's????

 

As written earlier, Monday has a Moon square Jupiter after the close which should be positive, but toppy. This is where I would look for a top to be in. It is possible that Mars square Neptune which is exact Tuesday morning will override any postiives for Monday. It is a strong aspect.

 

My game plan is to close out non gold share calls and add to puts by the end of day Monday.
