Financial Astrology - June 1, 2014

SP500
I've been expecting a Primary cycle low on or around May 30. What we are seeing is a cycle inversion where a high comes in where one expected a low. Some indices made new highs while others did not. This has the earmarks of a high and this coming week has further aspects indicating a turn down.

This weeks post will be short as I am working on the second half 2014 forecast dates for subscribers.

This is 17th week of the Primary cycle (nominal 18 week). Previous posts had been expecting a Primary cycle low in late May / early June. I'm now looking for a high and a turn down in that period. It could stretch into the second week of June but I'm going with a turn in the first week of June.

May 30           Geocentric Jupiter is on the heliocentric North Node of Pluto (could be                              volatile)
June 1             Jupiter is on the it's shadow date or back to the point in the Zodiac where                           is was when it last went retrograde on Nov 8, 2013
June 2             This is a date where a Lunar mystery cycle hits. Sometimes indentifies a                             strong move and sometimes not very much. Nevertheless we should be                              aware it may tale affect. More details in this weeks subscriber letter
June 4             Jupiter conjunct the Antiscia (mirror point) of the April 29 Solar eclipse
June 5             Mercury returns from being "Out of Bounds". This is often a turn or at a                             minimum a big range volatile day in the markets. This is the date of the next ECB meeting as well. Note the US$ comments further down.

Later this week and early the following week we have Mercury and Neptune turning retrograde within 2 days of each other. As stated in the special report "Change is in the Air", this could be a very confusing time as Mercury is about ideas and short term thought while Neptune, although beneficial for the arts, music, poetry etc. also stands for illusion and delusion. We are not dealing with the arts. We are dealing with the hard world of money and the markets. Note the comments on the window in time between May 28 and June 29th.

This could be the time for fraudulent activity regarding the markets or exposing some lies from the past. This includes more than the US. This could be closer to June 6th-9th.

I'm expecting increased volatility over the next couple of weeks and the Primary cycle trough.

Following is a chart of the first half forecast dates for the SP-500 to date or as of May 30, 2014. The red circles are the forecast dates. The forecast dates were prepared in mid-November 2013 and based strictly on Astrology. They did a good job of identifying swing highs but didn't capture the early February and mid April lows. Also I had thought the April 23rd date would be much more significant. The original forecast had all the dates +- 1 week. As you can see they are pretty much +- 1 td (trading day). For the second half subscription I'll be supplying the forecast dates as before, but will be revising them once per month as market cycles develop.

Included in the forecast letter was a Gold date. This turned out to be the best trade of the first half of the year.

From the 1sthalf market letter sent out with subscriptions.

"There is one date in the attached list is for Gold. It is added here because it is so close and maybe a spike low and change in trend to up.

The date is Dec 23 +- a week. June 27, 2013 was the previous low and I was looking at that date as the 4.25 year low. If we are now successfully retesting that low, Gold should be ready to move up. The same is true if we have a spike low in this time frame. This should be a great buying opportunity"

I bring up the Gold trade here because Gold and Silver should be a very good trade for the second half of the year and is included in the 2nd Half Forecast dates, available next week.



Gold
Gold's status has cleared up. Gold is in the 22nd week of the older Primary cycle and due to trough out. I'm expecting a rise into mid-June although I'm expecting a much better opportunity early in the 2nd half of the year. Although the average length of the Primary cycle is 18 weeks it can range from 15-21 weeks. This one is a little late.

As you can see from the following daily chart of the SP500 Gold price has plummeted. Price is below both the 15 sma  and 45 sma and the 15 sma is below is below the 45 sma. All conditions we look for during a Primary cycle trough.



Gold should reverse shortly and should be volatile. Subscribers have the dates.

Crude
Seasonally this is a weak period for crude. Even weaker for NatGas. Unlike Gold, Crude has not defined whether we are at the end of a Primary cycle (21st week) or we just had the crest of the first Major cycle (6 week) and we are headed down to a trough. The latter assumes May 1st was a Primary cycle low. If it was, it wasn't very deep. Watch crude closely. We want to see price below the 15 sma and 45 sma.



Other things to watch. Neptune is active. Neptune rules Crude and NatGas. There are many issues surrounding both here and in Europe. Russia continues to negotiate with the Ukraine over gas contracts. This should continue most of the month.

Neptune also rules coffee. The following chart is the JO, ETF, for coffee. The green lines are the Neptune price lines. Notice how they have acted as both support and resistance. Watch coffee, crude and NatGas closely in the month of June. I'm expecting volatility and breaks in support / resistance lines.



I use the date of Aug 15, 1971 for the US$. This is the date Nixon took the US off the gold standard. Based on this chart watch the US$ from June 4-6 for either a significant issue and at the least a big range day. June 6th seems to be the most exact. Transiting Mars will be conjunct natal Uranus on this chart. Looking at mundane events that could be the trigger, the ECB meets on June 5th.

May 27, 2014 Special Update "Change is in the Air"

The following is an update sent to subscribers this morning.

May 28 is a New Moon. A new Moon is a conjunction of the Sun and Moon. This New Moon is in the sign of Gemini. This New Moon is in exact square to Neptune in Pisces and Neptune is trine to Kronos.

Gemini is a mutable air sign. Pisces is a mutable water sign. Mutable signs are all about change. In Gemini it can be changes to thinking or ideas.

We should experience multiple changes including changes in what we are thinking over the next few weeks and it should start this week.

We can either respond to new ideas that create change or we are confused by the changes taking place or both. This includes our thoughts on investments. This is prime time for changes in many markets and as I'm writing Gold is moving down quickly. As pointed out in the market letter a number of markets are in the time frame for cycle crests or troughs.

Re-read the comments on the blog about Neptune turning retrograde and the window in time between May 28 and
June 29.

This could also be a picture of a major market turn or some type of problem or event with water or the things Neptune rules. They are noted on the last blog post.

Aspects between the outer planets can also point to geophysical events.

The above appear somewhat negative, however, Neptune is also trine Kronos. Kronos rules mastery, elevation and all that is excellent. In it's lower form it rules government, bureaucracy and red tape. With it's trine to Neptune (rules oil and gas) for example it could indicate a decision on the long held up Keystone pipeline or other oil and gas issue.

I'm looking for changes in market direction.

PS

Gold looks like it's heading for the Primary cycle trough.

Financial Astrology - May 25, 2014

SP500
The next two weeks outlook hasn't changed much from last weeks. post.
The SP500 is entering it's 16th week of it's Primary cycle. I am expecting a Primary cycle low in late May / early June. Some possible dates are;

May 26           the 1/2 cycle of the 225 cd cycle or 112 cd
May 30           Geocentric Jupiter is on the heliocentric North Node of Pluto (could be                              volatile)
June 1             Jupiter is on the it's shadow date or back to the point in the Zodiac where                           is was when it last went retrograde on Nov 8, 2013
June 2             This is a date where a Lunar mystery cycle hits. Sometimes indentifies a                             strong move and sometimes not very much. Nevertheless we should be                              aware it may tale affect. More details in this weeks subscriber letter, 
June 4             Jupiter conjunct the Antiscia of the April 29 Solar eclipse

I'm expecting increased volatility over the next couple of weeks and the Primary cycle trough.

There is a long term transit taking place this weekend. It is Jupiter trine Saturn. When reviewing the whole cycle (synodic cycle) from the conjunction this is the waning trine, that is the trine (120 degrees) after the opposition and before the next conjunction. This cycle started with a conjunction in 2000 near the Dot Net top.

The Jupiter in waning trine aspect has not been a good signature for trades. When there are multiple passes, like this one it often marks a major change in trend between the first and last exact trine. Since this is the last of 3 passes it is getting late for this to occur this time. Following is a daily chart of the Dow Jones Industrials showing the dates of this waning trine and the three dates it was exact. They are the 3 red circles.



The dates on the chart are the shadow dates for Jupiter, that is, when Jupiter turned retrograde and then later direct, this is the date Jupiter returns to the position it held when it had turned retrograde.

In previous centuries, those Astrologers that went before, studied the Jupiter / Saturn aspects and treated them as the key aspects when looking at the course of history. Of course some of the outer planets were unknown. Following are the dates of discovery of the three planets outside Saturn's orbit.

Uranus             March 13, 1781
Neptune          Sept 23, 1846
Pluto                Feb 18,1930.

The Jupiter / Saturn cycle is a 19-20 year cycle and changes a little due to retrograde motion. A 20 year cycle can be found in many markets. This is also part of a larger 240 year cycle which hits again in 2020. This is called the "Mutation Conjunction" as the conjunctions of Jupiter and Saturn change signs. This will be an important time in history. The "Mutation Conjunction" is changing signs into Aquarius, an Air sign. I would expect tremendous technological innovation in many fields.

The French Astrologer Barbault has identified this cycle as dominant in the study of European history. We must watch the Euro zone and possible changes around and approaching the next conjunction date in December 2020.

Back to the current time frame. As stated above we are in the 16th week of the Primary cycle and due to turn down into a cycle trough. The Primary cycle is a nominal 18 week cycle but the length really falls in a range of 15-23 weeks. Nevertheless we are in a right translated cycle with the cycle high near the end of the cycle. This is bullish or continues to be bullish.

Following is the daily chart of the SP500. So far the date we identified as a "High of Significance" on May 13, 2014 has held but the SP500 has been moving up quickly. We are nearly at the high. We are still short the NAS100. We are still nervous and getting more so.


Venus will be entering Taurus on May 28, it's rulership and Venus stands for stocks. Traditional astrology would tell us this should be favourable. Looking back at previous Venus ingresses into Taurus, oftentimes, if stock prices have been going up, they reverse within a few days of Venus entering Taurus. If stocks have been going down the reverse is true and Venus' entry into Taurus marks a change to up.

A major aspect for turns is the Sun square Neptune. This occurs this week as well. It's another good indicator for a reversal. Someone tell the FED please. Somehow I suspect they have their own astrologers.

In this instance it is the square before the Neptune retrograde. Also the Sun will trine Neptune on June 29. This is important to note. This is the waxing square where the Sun is 90 degrees after Neptune.

When Neptune turn retrograde (this time on June 9) there will always be a Sun squared Neptune approx. 13 cd's (this time May 28) before the retrograde and there will always be a Sun trine Neptune approx. 20cd's (this time June 29) afterwards.

Rather than look at the exact date of the Neptune station I look at the time period from May 28 to June 29 as a window for Neptune related activity. Neptune can equate to issues with water (especially now since it's in Pisces, the sign of it's ruler ship), oil and gas, charities, spirituality, hospitals and things that are hard to grasp. Like me. The feeling of being lost or the unknown. In it's highest form it is the recognition of the spiritual and the lowest, lies, deceit, fraud and corruption. With the way things are at this time I unfortunately look to the latter to manifest. Watch, oil and gas, coffee, drugs and pharmaceuticals, alcohol, the oceans and pollution.

Per the last post Jupiter will be active over the last week in May, first week of June. Jupiter is the co-ruler of oil and gas. See the last post for dates and comments.

As mentioned in a number of previous posts I'm still looking at the Pluto price line as major resistance for the SP500. We have moved above it. We need to reverse course quickly or we are off to new highs. Highs that don't make sense other than the continuous stream of money being printed and cheap rates.

Company management can get these near zero interest rate loans and can buy back their own stock thus driving the price up. George and Martha in Poughkeepsie on their Windows 3.1 PC and 1200 BAUD dial-up coupler don't have a chance.



Also from the last post.
"Also what is coming shortly is Mercury stationary retrograde on June 7 and Neptune stationary retrograde on June 9. This seems to indicate a period of lies, deceit and false hoods. Since we already have all these, perhaps a period of enhanced lies, deceit and false hoods better sates the case."

And also from the last post
"On the daily Nasdaq 100 index there is a wedge continuation pattern from which you can take a measured move from the top in the wedge. This is showing a possible target close to 3300. Also note on this chart the 15 sma is below the 45 sma and price is just above the 45 sma."

Now this didn't work out very well. Most times with this setup, a wedge continuation pattern, price will exit the wedge in the same direction as it entered it. This would be down. This needs to reverse quickly or the Nas100 maybe off to new highs.



Gold

The status of Gold is still not clear. We are either in the 21st week or the 5th week, of the Primary cycle.  Normally prices would be rising if this is the 5th week of the Primary and dipping if this is the end of a longer term Primary cycle. The Primary cycle is the nominal 18 week with a range of 15-21 weeks so we should be near the end of the 21st week Primary. I was looking for a rise in Gold into mid-June so a quick resolution of this cycle would give this outlook more credibility.

I'm looking for a big move in Gold and precious metals this year, first down for a major low and then up. Subscribers will have the dates in the 2nd half 2014 forecast. This will be available approx. mid-June.



Heliocentric Mercury in Sagittarius is usually a period of volatility in Gold and other PM's. This time heliocentric Mercury enters Sagittarius on June 9 through June 20th.

I'm looking for a low in Gold the last 2 weeks in May to the first week in June (hopefully the Primary cycle trough) and then a crest somewhere between June 13 - June 23rd.


Crude
Seasonally this is a weak period for crude. Even weaker for NatGas. Nevertheless Crude should still be in an older Primary cycle and be 19 weeks along. It is possible May 1st was a low but I always look at the 15 and 45 sma near a low in any market. I want to see the 15 sma lower then the 45 sma. On May 1st this was not the case.

If this is a new Primary we are in week 4 and should be expecting a Major cycle (6 week) crest.

Financial Astrology - May 17, 2014

SP500
The SP500 is entering it's 15th week of it's Primary cycle. I am expecting a Primary cycle low in late May / early June. Some possible dates are

May 26           the 1/2 cycle of the 225 cd cycle or 112 cd
May 30        Geocentric Jupiter is on the heliocentric North Node of Pluto (could be                        volatile)
June 1             Jupiter is on the it's shadow date or back to the point in the Zodiac where                           is was when it last went retrograde on Nov 8, 2013
June 4             Jupiter conjunct the Antiscia of the April 29 Solar eclipse

We got the move higher I was looking for, now, should be down and I'm looking at the first week in June for the Primary cycle low.

As can be seen on the following daily chart of the SP500 the 15 sma is above the 45 sma and price is above the 45 sma but below the 15 dma. For the Primary cycle low we ideally want to see the 15 sma lower than the 45 sma and price lower than both. Watch these unfold into the low.


As you can see from the list above Jupiter is quite active. As Jupiter is known as the greater benefic one might expect highs rather than lows. Jupiter also encompasses the principles of optimism, sense of well being and material goods gained of all types. Jupiter can also equate to periods where things have been over done. Certainly the FED's dovish policies and quantitative easing can be construed as overdone.

As mentioned in a number of previous posts I'm still looking at the Pluto price line as major resistance for the SP500. We have just moved below it one more time.



Also what is coming shortly is Mercury stationary retrograde on June 7 and Neptune stationary retrograde on June 9. This seems to indicate a period of lies, deceit and false hoods. Since we already have all these, perhaps a period of enhanced lies, deceit and false hoods better sates the case.

On the daily Nasdaq 100 index there is a wedge continuation pattern from which you can take a measured move from the top in the wedge. This is showing a possible target close to 3300. Also note on this chart the 15 sma is below the 45 sma and price is just above the 45 sma.


Gold

The status of Gold is still not clear. We are either in the 20th week or the 4th week, as of April 24, of the Primary cycle.  Normally prices would be rising if this is the 4th week of the Primary. It should be getting ready for the first Major cycle crest and be bullish. This is not the case so we must be careful trading Gold here.

I am suspicious that we are in the older 20th week Primary in which case we may see a sharp move down to a trough. Mars will be turning stationary direct on May 19th which can be very volatile for Gold.



Heliocentric Mercury in Sagittarius usually is a period of volatility in Gold and other PM's as well. This time heliocentric Mercury enters Sagittarius on June 9 through June 20th.

I'm looking for a low in Gold the last 2 weeks in May to the first week in June and then a crest somewhere between June 13 - June 23rd. We'll try and forecast this a little closer as we approach those dates.

I'm looking for a more substantial low in Gold in July. I've mentioned the 13-13.5 month cycle many times. It should bottom in July. Aspect wise July 4th has the Sun opposing Pluto , Jupiter enters Leo on July 16 and Mars enters Scorpio while in quintile to Pluto on July 25. Somewhere in there is a turn.

Crude
Seasonally this is a weak period for crude. Even weaker for NatGas. Nevertheless Crude should still be in an older Primary cycle and be 18 weeks along. It is possible May 1st was a low but I always look at the 15 and 45 sma near a low in any market. I want to see the 15 sma lower then the 45 sma. On May 1st this was not the case. We are just now entering a period where the 15 sma is lower than the 45 sma. I'm waiting for a low.



Of course I also look for Astrological signature which would relate to a turn in Crude. In this case that would be  May 19. May 24 is also possible.


US$
This is my biggest concern and has been for some time. The concern is the US$ remaining the reserve currency of the world. The US is run by a military / industrial complex that will resist any change in status that is detrimental to the US buck. Resistance in this case will probably mean war and generally involve blowing things up.

The current US foreign policy seems to be intent on driving Russia, China and Iran into an alliance. This may include India.

As mentioned a number of times in previous posts we are entering the 18 month low period for the US$, the green vertical line on the following chart. On reviewing the previous 18 month lows it is apparent they are often long periods of low US$ prices rather than a quick move down.

To complicate things there is a 38 month low due in mid-June (brown vertical line). I believe this is a dangerous period for the US$. Previous 38 month lows were April 2011, Feb 2008 and Dec 2004.

I thought a breakdown in the US$ would be a 2015 event. It may be earlier. I'll watch this area closely.

Special Daily Note May 13, 2014

PROBABLE HIGH OF SIGNIFICANCE

With the surge on Monday with no follow through this looks like it is close to a high of significance. With all the Astros mentioned on the weekly blog and letter this is probably for all the US indexes: SP500, DJIA, Nas 100, although I'm looking for the Nas to lead the way lower.

Sunday, May 11, 2014

Financial Astrology - May 11, 2014

SP500
The SP500 is entering it's 14th week of it's Primary cycle. I am expecting a Primary cycle low in late May / early June.

We didn't get the move higher I was expecting last week, other than the NYSE which put in a new all time high. I was also looking for a reversal lower "either late last week or in the coming week". Subs have the dates, but I can say we will have Venus about to translate the Grand Square, the Moon entering Scorpio and a Full Moon close to a conjunction with Saturn and Mercury going out of bounds. I also have a proprietary Astro indicator pointing to a reversal in the next couple of weeks.

That's a lot going on, however, we still have an active FED and a situation in the Ukraine close to civil war. Surprises affecting the markets can come out of these volatile situations.

The following chart of the SP500 shows we have generally been moving side-ways for the past two months. This chart also shows the 15 dma has crossed above the 45 dma which would generally be construed as positive. I'll be watching these averages closely as I was expecting a move down and with it, the 15 dma would be below the 45 dma. See the following daily chart of the SP500.



As mentioned in a number of previous posts I'm still looking at the Pluto price line (blue) as major resistance.




Mentioned above. Mercury will be moving "Out of Bounds" this coming week. This is often found at market turns or at least some big range days. The red vertical lines on the following chart show when Mercury goes out of bounds. The light blue shows when Venus goes out of bounds. 



Proprietary Astro indicator.
Reserved for subs.



Mars turns stationary Direct on May 19. Looking back, Mars turned retrograde on March 1st, just at the time the Ukraine situation was heating up. The sitting President Yanukovych, disappeared in late February. I'm looking at the period around the Mars Direct date to have an effect on the Ukraine situation, hopefully a peaceful one.  Look at the period around the Mars direct date, not necessarily on the exact date.

As far as US stocks are concerned the markets have basically gone sideways since Mars turned retrograde. I'm looking for a move in the market indexes within 7 days of Mars turning direct and I'm looking for a move down. A stated in previous posts I expect the Nasdaq to lead on the move down. We often get a dip in the US indexes when heliocentric Venus passes through Aquarius. Heliocentric Venus entered Aquarius on May 8th and will be there until May 25th.

Gold
We got a lower low on May 5 currently making that date the Primary cycle low. As this is still quite volatile we may go up from here or put in additional lower lows. With Venus translating the Grand Square and Mars turning stationary Direct on May 19 we may see additional lows in the coming week or around May 19th.

Somewhat frustrating but not uncommon. We are in either the 19th week of an older Primary cycle or the 2nd week of a newer Primary.

For the Mars Direct signature, the cycle is often opposite the type of cycle present during the Mars retrograde period. As that cycle was positive it would point to this cycle being negative and therefore we may be looking at lower lows over the next couple of weeks.

The following daily chart of Gold shows the 15 dma lower than the 45 dma. I'm now waiting until I see the 15 cross the 45 dma upwards.



For Gold, I often use the Heliocentric Bradley Indicator. It's next turn date is May 19th as seen on the following chart. This is the same date as the Mars turning Direct.

Remember, this indicator denotes a change in trend and not direction. This means the indicator can be going down when Gold, in this case, is going up. It is the change in direction that should indicate a change in trend.



Taking all into consideration I'm looking for a low between May 12 and May 19 and then upA low in this time period makes the June / July period confusing as I had been looking for a 13-13.5 month low in June/ July and probably mid-July. This would be at the 9 week period if we have a Primary cycle low in the next week or so. This makes the mid-July forecast rather confusing.

In these situations, when I'm waiting for a low, I put in resting buy orders on Gold bull related ETF's. and let the market take me in. Personally I just use 2x as the 3x and above are too volatile. If I'm waiting for a high, I put in resting buy orders on bear Gold ETF's.

Same comments on Silver.

Crude
Seasonally this is a weak period for crude. Even weaker for NatGas. Nevertheless Crude should still be in an older Primary cycle and be 18 weeks along. It is possible May 1st was a low but I always look at the 15 and 45 dma near a low in any market. I want to see the 15 dma lower then the 45 dma. On May 1st this was not the case. We are just now entering a period where the 15 dma is lower than the 45 dma.



Of course I also look for Astrological signature which would relate to a turn in Crude. In this case that would be May 13 and May 19. May 24 is also possible.

US$
As mentioned a number of times in previous posts we are entering the 18 month low period for the US$, the green vertical line on the following chart. On reviewing the previous 18 month lows it is apparent they are often long periods of low US$ prices rather than a quick move down. To complicate things there is a 38 month low due in mid-June (brown vertical line). I believe this is a dangerous period for the US$. Previous 38 month lows were April 2011, Feb 2008 and Dec 2004.

Financial Astrology - May 4, 2014

SP500
We are in the 13th week of the Primary cycle. It appears the effects of the Grand Square will drag on and probably revolve around the Ukraine political unrest. Mars will be turning stationary direct on May 19 thus heading back to the spot it was on when the Grand Square was exact on April 23. Mars will get back to that point on June 16th. There are other Astro indicators around that time pointing to general disruption. We'll expand on these in a subsequent post.

The SP500 is approaching it's all time high on April 4th. That was also on a 40 td cycle high. The 40 td cycle often inverts and can be a high or low in stocks. The next iteration for the 40 td cycle is the last week of May. This is also the 16th week of the Primary cycle.

Mars turning Direct for the general market indexes usually is a period of volatility and may be close to a Primary cycle turn. May 19 would be in the 15th week of the Primary cycle. So, like the 40 td cycle mentioned above, it could be either a crest or early trough so we must watch price action of the index's over the next few weeks.



If we are headed sharply up or down the Nasdaq should lead the way. The following daily chart of the NAS 100 shows the index right up against the fib retracement level of 38.2% of the move up from Feb 5th to March 7th. The index could briefly spike higher but we expect a move up will fail. Watch the 15 and 45 dma. Currently the 15 dma is below the 45 dma and should stay below or this analysis is incorrect. See the daily chart of the Nas 100 below.



There are a number of aspects, mid-May that point to a turns in more than one market. Watch this time period closely. Subs have the dates.

Basically I'm looking for a move higher in the general indices this week and then a reversal either later this week or early the week of May 12th when Venus starts it's translation of the Grand Square

I'll be looking to short any move above the current all time high in the SP500. I'm looking for a Primary cycle trough in the SP500 during the last 2 weeks of the month but need price action to agree with this analysis. I'll be shorting the NAsdaq 100 as well as it should lead the parade on any move down.

I'm still looking at the Pluto price line (blue line) as resistance, although the SP500 (below) has nudged above it a few times.




Gold
We are in either the 18 week or 2nd week of the Primary cycle. If the Primary cycle started on the spike low on April 24 then Gold should be bullish. If we are in the older 18 week we are still in a generally bullish position as the Primary low would be due very soon and probably this month. Mars turning Direct or Venus translating the Grand Square would both be good signatures for a change in trend.

There was a sharp move up on Friday May 2nd so watch early next week. I want to see a daily close above 1303-1305 area to confirm a new Primary. See notes on Silver. May 6-7 may be good dates for a sharp move.



Silver
Silver is in the 18 week or 1st week of it's Primary cycle. Watch for a sharp move in Silver and most probably up particularly around May 6-7.

I've posted the following chart many times before. It shows the heliocentric (Sun centered) price lines for Venus and Jupiter. Note the support on the heliocentric Jupiter price line (blue line)

We often get a sharp move when the Venus price line (green) crosses the heliocentric Jupiter price line (blue). This occurs next on May 6 with a heliocentric Venus / Jupiter opposition. If Silver is going up Gold will be going up as well.



Crude
May 5th starts the 17th week in the Primary cycle for crude. Price is below both the 15 and 45 dma, however, the 15 dma is above the 45 dma and falling. Ideally we would like to see the 15 dma below the 45 dma for the Primary cycle low.

Note where we are in the fib retracements. $98.21 would be a 50% retracement of the move up from early Jan'14 to early March'14.



Remember we have a potential war going on so commodities in general and Gold and Crude in particular could be very volatile and not follow normal analysis.

US$
