    About this ebook

    ?

    Can the movements of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus affect market cycles?

    ?

    Are prices swings on the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 a reflection of lunar and planetary placements?

    Many people are surprised to find that changes in price trends on the financial markets are a reflection of the changing psychological emotions of market participants.

    Our emotions are impacted by the varying gravitational pulls and energy levels in our planetary cosmos. Scientific techniques such as square root mathematics, the Golden Mean, the Golden Sequence and astrological phenomena like lunar events, planetary transits and planetary aspects can thus be used to identify short term changes in price trend and long term market cycles.

    In the early part of the 20th century many successful traders on Wall Street, including the venerable W.D. Gann and the mysterious Louise McWhirter understood that emotion was intimately linked to the forces of nature. They used these scientific techniques and astrological phenomena to predict changes to price trend and to profit from the markets.

    The Lost Science will acquaint you with an extensive range of astrological and mathematical phenomena. From the Golden Mean and Fibonacci Sequence through planetary transit lines and square roots to an examination of lunar astrology, planetary aspects and market cycles, the numerous illustrated examples in this book will assist you to deepen your understanding of the financial markets and make better informed and more timely trading and investing decisions.

    Introduction

    The investment industry is deeply flawed.

    Investment Advisors encourage clients to buy and hold investment products using the argument that investing is a long-term process. Carefully crafted analyst reports and wealth management marketing strategies support this approach. When markets rise, Investment Advisors inform clients that all is well and that their investments will probably continue to rise in value. When markets fall, Investment Advisors quickly remind clients that all is well as over time markets tend to gradually increase in value despite occasional setbacks. Regardless of market ups or downs, the financial industry continues to extract commissions and fees from the client.

    I used to be an Investment Advisor. I am well versed in the academic theory and econometric models that underpin the industry. I am well trained in how to sell to clients the notion of buy and hold.

    But I no longer subscribe to the decades old theories, to the flawed models, to the nonsense. Several years ago, I turned my back on the financial industry and walked away.

    Frustration can be a powerful motivator. I was frustrated with the investment industry and its focus on encouraging people to buy and hold. This frustration motivated me to look deeply into the forces that influence price action on the financial markets. Why do markets rise? Why do markets fall? I came to realize that the financial markets are largely a reflection of the mass psychology of market participants. When traders and investors are feeling positive, they buy. When they are feeling fearful, they sell. These changing emotions are what create changes in price trends.

    What then influences these emotions? Many in the investment industry believe that the daily news influences emotion. I take the reverse view. I maintain that the news we see, hear and read is created by changing emotions that have already affected the markets.

    For example, on days when investor emotion causes a change in price trend, the financial media will craft convincing arguments in an effort to show how a comment by a central banker, a change to an earnings multiple or a shift in
