You are down and out after making some bigloses, you have knowledge because you made moneyin the past, but not all the knowledge because youbroke the rules, gave it all back and some. Learnfrom this lesson. W.D. Gann is the Methodology thatI follow to a tee, using no other indicators to supporthis methods. If you have to use other indicators tosupport W. D. Gann methods then you haven’t studiedGann in depth.

Having made big losses you are going to bestressed, maybe sick, your relationship could be introuble because you have lost all your capital except$5,000.00 US.

Before we get to trading strategies there’sgoing to be quite a number of issues to address –W. D. Gann’s most important thing was good health.

HEALTHA person can not make great success in any

business unless health is good and more so in thebusiness of trading stocks and commodities. A brilliantmind cannot work successfully with a weak body. Inbad health you do not have the patience to wait orthe nerve to act. If your health is bad you becomedespondent, you lose hope, you have fear, and youwill be unable to act at the right time. I have tried totrade when I was sick in bed and I had forgotten thatI had placed twice as many orders in coffee marketthan I thought and lost $10,000 in a few days. I nowtry to do a couple of hours exercise 5 days a weekand eat healthy food. If your health gives way, themost important thing to work on is to get your healthback in perfect shape for HEALTH is WEALTH.

KNOWLEDGEWhen you have paid in advance with time and

study, and gained knowledge, then you will find it easyto make money. The more time you put into gainingknowledge the more money you will be able to makelater.

CAPITALCapital is important because without capital

you can’t trade. You have a small amount of $5,000U.S. and you can make large profits, providing youuse a stop-loss order, and take small losses and don’tover trade.

2004 Trader’s Astrological Almanac Page 4

WHAT TO TRADEYou only have $5000.00 U.S so you can’t

afford to lose it. W. D. Gann preferred to trade incommodities than stocks. The pitfalls of stocks are:• Stocks are issued to the public to get interest freemoney• Staff and management get bonuses when thecompany makes large profits instead of going to theshareholders.• Staff and management travel first class or businessclass, stay in the best hotels, have credit cards andcompany cars• The company can go bankrupt – like Enron, WorldCom. Etc. It’s amazing the C.E.O.’s get paid millionsin salaries each year and the company goes broke.• The insiders sell before the public becomes aware

THE ADVANTAGES OF COMMODITIES• They are the necessities of life.• They do not become worthless, they can only fall invalue (you make money shorting them).• They generally follow a natural seasonal cycle• They have higher volatility in drought, floods etc.than stocks.• Most commodity markets have greater liquidity totrade options and futures contracts.• W. D. Gann said “it’s easier to predict commoditiesthan stocks.

SET UP THE TRADE!I don’t use a computer for charts – it is not the

W. D. Gann method. Hand draw up at least 10 monthlycharts on different commodities, currencies, metalsor bonds that are trending. By trending markets thathave broken highs or lows from tops or bottoms overthe last 5 years or more. Make sure you have at least20 years of data, but 30 years is better when you canget it. Next draw up your weekly chart going back 3to 5 years from the last major high or low.

Look at the market that looks the strongest tobuy and the weakest market to sell out of your 10monthly charts you have drawn. For the market to bein a Bull market it has to make higher tops and higherbottoms (at least 3 of each).

Draw all your geometric angles (Gann angles)from all highs, lows and zero line on monthly chart todetermine whether the market is in a strong or weak

position.

FORM READINGEighty-five percent of what any of us learn is

from what we see. It has been well said, "One pictureis worth a thousand words." That is why FORMREADING or the reading of various formations atdifferent periods of time is so valuable. The future isbut a repetition of the past. The same formation attops or bottoms or intermediate points at differenttimes indicates the trend of the market.

Therefore, when you see the same picture orformation in the market the second and third time,you know what it means and can determine the trend.

You do not have to accept my word that therules I give you will work in the future as they have inthe past but you owe it to yourself to prove by pastrecords that these rules work; then you will have thefaith to follow them and make money.

FORMATION AT BOTTOMS AND TOPSBy studying stock formulations of the past you

will be able to determine what is going to happen whensimilar formations occur in the future, just as you knowthat there is going to be rainstorm when you see aheavy dark cloud form.

After accumulation or distribution at a bottomor top has been completed, there is a BREAKAWAYPOINT. When you buy or sell stocks at this point, youmake money very quickly.

Study the volume/open interest, seasonalpatterns, the space and price movements and thelast and most important time period. Similar action ofthe market occurs around the same month yearsapart.

Study the different types of bottom formations- sharp, double, triple, flat and ascending bottoms.

LAST STAGE OF BULL OR BEAR MARKETIn fast, advancing markets in the last stage of

the campaign, reactions get smaller as stocks workto higher levels, until the final section or run hasended. Then comes a sharp, quick reaction and areversal in trend.

In the last stage of a Bear Market, after all oldbottoms and resistance levels have been broken,rallies get less or smaller as prices work lower.Therefore, people who buy have no chance to sell onrallies until the final bottom has been reached andthe first rally takes place.

This is why it never pays to buck the trend inthe last stage of a Bull Market or the last stage of aBear Market.

RANGE OF BOTTOMSNever consider that a major or a minor trend

has reversed or changed until the bottoms of previousweeks have been broken or the tops of previous weekshave been crossed. The number of points that a stockor the averages should decline below a bottom toindicate a change in trend to lower levels, variesaccording to the price at which the averages or thestock is selling.

We consider a range within 1% to 3% points adouble or triple bottom or a double or triple top. In astrong market a stock will break only 1 point under abottom and then rally and, in extreme cases, not morethan 2 points. As a rule, when bottoms are broken by3 full points it is an indication for lower prices beforeany rally of importance.

SINGLE "V" OR SHARP BOTTOMThis formation can be a sharp, fast decline

followed by a fast advance, or even a slow declinefollowed by a quick rally from the bottom withsecondary reactions until it advances to higher levels.

"U" BOTTOM OR A FLAT BOTTOMThis “U” bottom is a formation where a stock

remains for 3 to 10 weeks or more in a narrow tradingrange, making about the same top and bottom levelsseveral times; then when it crosses the intermediatetops, it has formed a "U" or a flat bottom and is at thebreakaway point.... a safe place to buy.

“W” BOTTOM OR DOUBLE BOTTOMWhen a stock declines and makes a bottom,

then rallies for 2 to 3 weeks or more, declines andmakes a bottom around the same level the secondtime, then advances and crosses the previous top, ithas formed a "W" or double bottom. It is safe to buywhen it crosses the top or middle of the "W".... Whichis the BREAKAWAY POINT.

"WV" BOTTOM OR TRIPLE BOTTOMThis is a third higher bottom after a double

bottom or three bottoms near the same level. It is safeto buy when a stock has formed a "W" and a "V" onthe side and crosses the second top of the "W".

"W W" BOTTOM OR A 4-BOTTOM FORMATIONSThis formation shows first, second, third and

fourth bottoms. The safest point to buy is at theBREAKAWAY POINT or when a commodity crossesthe middle point of the second "W".

RESISTANT SUPPORT LEVELSDivide the highs, lows, and ranges into 1/8th

and 1/3rd. This will give 12.5 %, 25%, 33.3%, 37.5%,50%, 62.5%, 66.6%, 75%, 87.5% and 100%.

W. D. Gann was the first trader to do this andall traders since then who say they don’t use Gannare misleading you, because they all use these supportand resistance levels.

Look to buy and sell on these levels providingthe market is conforming to the previous condition setout in this article.

STRATEGYWith W. D. Gann’s method you should divide

your capital into 10 equal parts (Rules to Follow). Thiswould equal $500 U.S. There might only be 3 trendingmarkets, therefore you would only use $1500U.S. Youwouldn’t be able to trade futures, you would only beable to trade options. The cheapest way is to do Bullcall spreads and Bear put spreads. This will keep yourcosts down. If you get a strong trending market thenyou can buy out of the money calls or puts.

Example is December cotton chart below.

If you bought a call 5 cents out of the moneyat the double bottom for $99 and sold a call 10 centsout of the money for $400 (actual costs) you wouldhave a net cost of $500.00. When the market went upto 25% retracetment for $1520 U.S (minus costs$500), it gave you net profit of $1000. Do that 10 timesin different markets you have doubled your money.Now you have a $10,000 account and you apply thesame rules by dividing into 10 equal parts, or whenthe market broke the 50% level at 62 cents you broughta call out of the money strike of 10 cents (72 centstrike) for $400. It would have been worth $6,000U.S. The top 84.80 minus strike of 72 – cost of option.

Now that you have made money you need tokeep it.

GANN’S 28 RULES TO BE READ EVERY DAY

TWENTY-EIGHT VALUABLE RULESIn order to make a success trade in the

commodity market, the trader must have definite rulesand follow them. The rules given below are basedupon my personal experience and anyone who follows

Page 12: Almanac 2004

2004 Trader’s Astrological Almanac Page 7

them will make a success.

1. Amount of capital to use: Divide your capital into10 equal parts and never risk more than one-tenth ofyour capital on any one trade.2. Use stop loss orders. Always protect a trade whenyou make it with a stop loss order of 1 to 3 cents,never more than 5 cents away; cotton 20 to 40, nevermore than 60 points away.3. Never overtrade. This would be violating yourcapital rules.4. Never let a profit run into a loss. After you oncehave a profit of 3 cents or more, raise your stop lossorder so that you will have no loss of capital. Forcotton, when the profits are 60 points or more, placea stop where there will be no loss.5. Do not buck the trend. Never buy or sell if you arenot sure of the trend according to your charts andrules.6. When in doubt, get out, and don't get in when indoubt.7. Trade only in active markets. Keep out of slow,dead ones.8. Equal distribution of risk. Trade in 2 or 3 differentcommodities, if possible. Avoid tying up all your capitalin any one commodity.9. Never limit your orders or fix a buying or sellingprice. Trade at the market.10. Don't close your trades without a good reason.Follow up with a stop loss order to protect your profits.11. Accumulate a surplus. After you have made aseries of successful trades, put some money into asurplus account to be used only in emergency or intimes of panic.12. Never buy or sell just to get a scalping profit.13. Never average a loss. This is one of the worstmistakes a trader can make.14. Never get out of the market just because you havelost patience or get into the market because you areanxious from waiting.15. Avoid taking small profits and big losses.16. Never cancel a stop loss order after you haveplaced it at the time you make a trade.17. Avoid getting in and out of the market too often.18. Be just as willing to sell short as you are to buy.Let your object be to keep with the trend and makemoney.19. Never buy just because the price of a commodityis low or sell short just because the price is high.20. Be careful about pyramiding at the wrong time.

Wait until the commodity is very active and hascrossed Resistance Levels before buying more anduntil it has broken out of the zone of distribution beforeselling more.21. Select the commodities that show strong uptrendto pyramid on the buying side and the ones that showdefinite downtrend to sell short.22. Never hedge. If you are long of one commodityand it starts to go down, do not sell another commodityshort to hedge it. Get out at the market; take your lossand wait for another opportunity.23. Never change your position in the market withouta good reason. When you make a trade, let it be forsome good reason or according to some definite rule;then do not get out without a definite indication of achange in trend.24. Avoid increasing your trading after a long periodof success or a period of profitable trades.25. Don't guess when the market is top. Let the marketprove it is top. Don't guess when the market is bottom.Let the market prove it is bottom. By following definiterules, you can do this.26. Do not follow another man's advice unless youknow that he knows more than you do.27. Reduce trading after first loss; never increase.28. Avoid getting in wrong and out wrong; getting inright and out wrong; this is making double mistakes.

When you decide to make a trade be sure thatyou are not violating any of these 28 rules which arevital and important to your success. When you closea trade with a loss, go over these rules and see whichrule you have violated, then do not make the samemistake the second time. Experience and investigationwill convince you of the value of these rules, andobservation and study will lead you to a correct andpractical theory for successful Trading in Commodities.

‘Trading As A Business’

by Larry Pesavento

Habits can be a trade’s best friend or his worst enemy. A habit is like a strong steelcable that weaves itself each day until it becomes almost unbreakable. There are fourprimary habits that should be acquired by a trader. They are listed in order of importanceto this writer. Your priority may have a different sequence.

1. Know how to lose – the quicker you grasp that losing is natural and necessary in trading,the quicker you will become successful. Remember that losers think, “what can I win” andwinners think, “what can I lose”! Take care of your losses and your profits will take care orthemselves.

2. Think in probabilities – learn to think of each trade as a small part of your trading. Itshould have a minimum effect on your net equity should you lose. A series of losses willinvariably be followed by a string of profits. Disassociate yourself as soon as you take aloss, “forget your profits but forget your losses faster”. Don’t trade in the past tense.

3. Preparation – this is the easiest of the four habits! Whatever your methodology, a certainamount of trade preparation will be necessary prior to the next days trading! This can besimple or complex. Don’t get caught up in the “paralysis of analysis.” We never knowwhich trades will be winners so learn to do all the trades that are within your parameters!Remember the words of Benjamin Franklin, “luck is where preparation meets opportunity.”

4. Discipline – this is the art of putting together everything we know, for the purpose ofmaking money, and becoming a consistent and successful trader. Discipline is the hardesthabit to acquire because it is made of the sum of all the other habits. Trading is a journey,not a destination. Traders improve through evolution. Great traders learn this evolutionaryprocess early in their careers. Work on discipline every trading day!

Astrologer RayMerriman has beenconducting researchon market timing usingfinancial astrology for

decades. His research has been widely published;he is author of several books, including: "The UltimateBook on Stock Market Timing Vol 3: GeocosmicCorrelations To Trading Cycles," "The Ultimate Bookon Stock Market Timing Vol 4: Solar-LunarCorrelations To Trading Reversals,” and "The GoldBook," among others. His Financial AstrologyResearch (FAR) Program for the Galactic Traderoffers traders an easy and practical way to use thisresearch. Galactic Trader is a powerful programdeveloped by astrologer Jeanne Long and used byastro traders, and FAR is simply an upgrade to it.The program is useful for traders of any financial orcommodity markets.

Through his extensive research, Merrimanhas discovered certain geocosmic "signatures" --

based on transiting aspects -- at which marketreversals have a high probability of occurring.Categorized by strength as Level One, Level Two andLevel Three. Level One is the most powerful andcrucial for market turns of the greatest amplitude. Hisstudies have shown that when major reversalshappen, they are within three trading days of “criticalreversal dates.” Critical reversal dates occur whenmultiple geocosmic signatures appear in close timeproximity, or “clusters.” A critical reversal date can thenbe determined by taking the midpoint between thefirst and last signature. That midpoint, then, must alsobe within three trading days of Level 1 signature inorder to have the highest probability of correlatingwith an actual market reversal.

Let's take a look at a few examples:

As you can see in this SPDR example, wehad fairly significant reversals when Level Onesignatures were present.

As with standard technical indicators,when there is confluence of astro events, it addsto the reliability and force of the signal. In thisexample, look what happened when "Ingresses"was added to the Level One signature: the exactswing low was identified. While on the topic ofconfluence, it’s important to mention that theGalactic Trader program has numerous technicalanalysis indicators that can easily be used inconjunction with the geocosmic signatures in theFAR program.

FAR allows you to identify the potentiallymost volatile days -- ahead of time. If you’re adaytrader, volatility can be quite useful to you.It’s obviously better to trade on more volatiledays versus less volatile days. Swing tradersand mutual fund timers too, can benefit fromknowing when the large range days are likely,as markets tend to exhibit one or more largerange days in a row when a b low-of f i shappening.

The program also allows you to do your

own research. After identifying significant highs/lows, you can do an astrological quantitativestudy on those dates to determine if anythingstood out that could help identify future swingpoints.

It’s worth noting that one doesn’t have tobe a semi-professional astrologer -- or have anyexperience in the field, for that matter -- tosuccessfu l ly use the FAR program. Theindicators are easy to understand and read, andthe 47-page manual for the program is verycomprehensive and gives plenty of excellentinsight that even a beginner can understand.Merriman has a very clear and easy-to-readwriting style that makes getting started with theprogram a snap.

IntroductionFor thousand of years people have been

relying on astrology to forecast TIME. What islittle known is that the PLANETS in our solarsystem along with the SUN and the MOON canalso be employed to forecast PRICES of stocks,commodities, currencies, bonds and futures.Better - all this can be achieved with an amazingdegree of accuracy. Actually from a TRADER’SPOINT OF VIEW it is easier to learn tradingastrological PRICE as opposed to tradingastrological TIME. You will see this for yourselfas you follow me along these lines.

Trading with AstrologyWhy could it be easier to trade on price

than on time ? Take for example ANY ASPECTbetween TWO PLANETS and consider itsimplications for time.Is it bullish or bearish ?For which markets or commodities ?How long and strong will it effect a market ?

Three questions - many possible answers.To answer these questions a financial astrologerwill come up with a SET of RULES ofINTERPRETATIONS that he has establishedthrough study, research and experience. Whilethis task is certainly not an easy one for a skilledastrologer, it becomes even more difficult for atrader with little background in astrology.

Take on the other hand the same aspectand apply it to price. By applying simplemathematics, anyone can immediatelyTRANSFER ANY PLANET to the PRICE of acommodity or stock.

In fact W. D. Gann believed that thisprocess of planet to price conversion takes placein the SUBCONSCIOUS MINDS of the massesand that is why sometimes a market will reach atarget and sometimes it will fail. The reason is

hidden support and resistance as defined by themovements of the planets in our solar system. Inthis respect the planets also act as magnets andconsistently attract price to them and repel pricefrom them.

Converting Cosmic Energies to PriceThe circle has 360 degrees and serves as

a map to record the position of the Stars, Planets,the Sun and the Moon as measured along theECLIPTIC. The ecliptic is the apparent path ofthe Sun across the celestial sphere inclined at anangle of 23.5 degrees to the equator. Theinclination of the ecliptic is responsible for the fourseasons.

Astrologers use the Greek word “Zodiac”which translates into “Wheel of Life” or “AnimalWheel” as another term for "the circle". The Zodiacis divided into 12 divisions (“Signs”), eachcomprising 30 degrees. The starting point of theZodiac is the vernal equinox (March 20 or 21,beginning of Spring). At this point the eclipticcrosses the equator. On this day night and dayare equal in length.

Thus if a planets stands for example at 69degree of the Zodiac (9 degree of Gemini asGemini is the third 30 degree division of theZodiac) it will give support or resist to an index orstock at a price of 69, but also at a price of 429(69+360), 789 (69+360+360) and 1149(69+360+360+360), ·.and so on. This is the basicidea behind a very powerful concept.

You might now wonder whether there areparticular planets that provide support or resistto a particular market. The answer is no. Everyplanet can provide support or resist to a market,however important support/resist will only comefrom planets that are in aspect to each other. Anaspect exists if two planets stand in a certainharmonic relation to each other such asconjunction (0 or 360 degree), an opposition (180

degrees), a trine (120degrees), a square (90degrees) or a sextile (60 degrees. Also the 30and 150 degree relations are important as theycomplete the family of 30 degree aspects.

W. D. Gann's Law of VibrationIt is known that W. D. Gann would draw

planetary price lines on his price charts. This isevidenced by his famous Soybean chart(courtesy of Myles Wilson Walker).

The line starting at point "1" is the Jupiterplanetary price line and the line starting and goingthrough the points labeled "7" is the Marsplanetary price line. A planetary price line issimply the conversion of the movement of aplanet to a price chart.

While the conversion of planets to pricecan be done mathematically once the positionof the planets is known - this in turn is a taskcompleted by any astrology program - it is veryhelpful for the trader to get a graphicalrepresentation of the movements of the planetsin relation to the price chart of a commodity, stock,futures contract or stock index. If you do not wantto draw the lines yourself as W. D. Gann did it inthe above example - I recommend using a

software to complete the task.

Making the Law Visible with Galactic TraderThere are only a few financial software

programs around that can draw planetary pricelines and the best and most sophisticated one -in my opinion - is the program Galactic Trader -which was developed by Jeanne Long, and isavailable from PAS Astro-Soft in Jacksonville,Florida.

W. D. Gann has noted that sometimes aparticular planet will provide continued resist orsupport to a market as it is activated by otherplanets in aspect to it. A good example of this isthe recent price action in the S&P 500 and theplanet Mars.

Below I have provided an S&P chart forthe period of April to December 2003. The redthick Mars Line is providing resist as it is activatedby aspects from other planets on October 16(Mercury), November 3 (Sun), November 7(Neptune), November 14 (Venus), December 3(Venus) and December 15 (Uranus), 2003.The thin red lines represent the thick red linesmoved by exactly 90 points. 90 divides the circleof 360 by 4. Thus we speak of cosmic Mars

Page 18: Almanac 2004

2004 Trader’s Astrological Almanac Page 13

energies of the 4th harmonic.Knowing the hidden planetary forces

would have provided the trader with goodreasons to sell and buy the market repeatedly atthe Mars line.

As you see there is not only one Mars linein effect, but also a second one. The one comingdown is the first one MIRRORED across theEast-West axis.

Any planet can be MIRRORED along the

East-West Axis by simply subtracting itspositional degree from 360. This is puremathematics.

21 becomes 339, 50 becomes 310, 179becomes 181 and so on. Thus as the nonmirrored planetary lines are moving up - alongwith the movements of the planets, the mirroredplanetary lines will move down.

The concept of mirroring perfectly reflectsthe philosophy of “as above, so below” and itsimportance cannot be overstated whencalculating planetary price lines.

In the Galactic Trader program anyplanetary line can simply be mirrored by choosinga “Y” instead of a “N” in the edit features of eachplanetary price line. Further more an aspectresearch feature will list the most importantplanetary aspects for a given day.

SummaryPlanets can be converted to price by taking

their position in the Zodiac and applying simplealgebra. W. D. Gann used to manually draw theposition of the planets on his price charts. Todaya software program like Galactic Trader can dothat cumbersome task for you and thus make thehidden energies of the planets visible. The

Page 19: Almanac 2004

2004 Trader’s Astrological Almanac Page 14

concept “as above so below” can be shown onprice charts by mirroring planetary lines.

The energy of the planets will be strongestwhen planets are in aspect to each other. In thiscase the energy of the planets will first attractprice and later repel price. This process is partof a natural law. W. D. Gann used to refer to thisprocess as the “law of vibration”.

The discovery of how planets attract andrepel price enabled W. D. Gann to consistentlybuy the low and sell the high of the day and gavehim a sound idea of where price would trade inthe future.

By consistently applying planetaryenergies to forecasting future prices I haverecently made the same discovery. Thisbreakthrough discovery has enabled me to

consistently forecast the high and low prices ofthe day in the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 indexduring the last month and before and to correctlyforecast the direction of the S&P 500 for 12trading days in a row. The probability of achievingthis result is "0.5 to the power of 12" to "1" or lessthan 1 to 100.

I also offer a mentoring program that willshow traders all they need to know to achievesimilar results and to get a clear edge on themarket.

If you are a trader and if you are notinterested in learning geometry and astrology, youcan still get a clear edge on the market bysubscribing to the Rosecast market letter.
