WILLIAM GANN AND VEDIC MARKET CYCLES

pmontesdeoca — Sat, 18 Feb 2012 22:34:39 +0000

THE ONLY MAN TO EVER HAVE MADE ENORMOUS AND QUICK PROFITS IN THE STOCK MARKET HISTORY USING CYCLES

William D. Gann was a trader of the early 20th century. His abilities for profiting from the stock and commodity markets remain unchallenged. Gann’s methods of technical analysis for projecting both price and time targets are unique. Even today, his methods have yet to be fully duplicated.
Known as “The Master Trader”, W.D. Gann was born in 1878, in Lufkin, Texas. Gann netted over 50 million $ from the markets during his trading career, averaging a success rate for trades of more than 90%. It has been said that Gann could very well have been right ALL the time. Any losses incurred by him were only there by his own design and not because of any faults with his methods.
His successes are legendary. Gann literally converted small accounts into fortunes, increasing their net balances by several hundred percent. There are numerous examples of his trading successes, among which are these:
1908 – a $130 account increased to $12.000 in 30 days.
1923 – a $973 account increased to $30.000 in 60 days.
1933 – 479 trades were made with 422 being profitable. This is an accuracy of 88% and 4000% profit.
1946 – A 3-month net profit of $13.000 from starting capital of $4500 – a 400% profit.
The following paragraph appeared in the December 1909 issue of “Ticket” Magazine. It was written by R.D. Wyckoff, the former owner and editor of the “Ticket”, and describes Gann’s proficiency for projecting price targets forward in time:
“One of the most astonishing calculations made by Mr. Gann was during last summer (1909) when he predicted that September Wheat would sell at $1.20. This meant that it must touch that figure before the end of the month of September. At twelve o’clock, Chicago time, on September 30th (the last day) the option was selling bellow $1.08 and it looked as though his prediction would not be fulfilled. Mr. Gann said, ‘If it does not touch $1.20 by the close of the market, it will prove that there is something wrong with my whole method of calculations. I do not care what the price is now, it must go there’. It is common history that September Wheat surprised the whole country but selling at $1.20 and no high in the very last hour of trading, closing at that figure”.
Gann’s trading methods are based on personal beliefs of a natural order existing for everything in the universe.

Gann was part of a family with strong religious beliefs. As a result, Gann would often use Biblical passages as a basis for not only his life, but his trading methods. A passage often quoted by Gann was this from Ecclesiastes 1:9 – 10: “What has been, that will be; what has been done, that will be done. Nothing is new under the sun. Even the thing of which we say, ‘See, this is new!’ has already existed in the ages that preceded us.”
This universal order of nature also existed, Gann determined, and we have the same opinion now, in the stock and commodity markets. Price movements occurred, not in a random manner, but in a manner that can be pre-determined. The predictable movements of prices result from the influence of mathematical points of forces found in nature… And what is the cause for all this points of forces? Right… cosmos…universe… all planets around us. This Gann could say at that time.
These points of force were felt to cause prices to not only move, but move in a manner that can be anticipated. Future targets for both price and time can be confidently projected by reducing these mathematical points of forces to terms of mathematical equations and relationships.
The mathematical equations of Gann are not complex. They result in lines of support and resistance which prices invariably will follow.
Gann held that time is the most important element of trading. Time is the factor that determines the length of a commodity’s price trend. When time dictates that trending prices should react, prices may stabilize for a short period, or they may fluctuate within a tight range, but eventually they will react by reversing direction.

THE STOCK MARKET MOST POWERFUL AND MOST MISSED WAVE – THE 9TH WAVE OF VEDIC CODES!

pmontesdeoca — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 20:26:24 +0000

By Patrick MontesDeOca

Every system has a division of 9 elements in Vedic Code Waves. Whether it is the conception of a child or a business or a plant or the stock market, they are all within a system of 9 divisions according to the time line. The time line can be any unit chosen, such as an hour, a day, a month or a year or a decade. Since time has no end or no beginning, we have to create the beginning when it comes to choosing to calculate a system.

There are certain universal parameters that help us to calculate time. As you can see the number 9 is very predominant in all phases of the universe. It acts like zero and at the same time acts like a powerful number that completes a system and prepares it for renewal.

The Huricanes Katrina (8/28) and Wilmer (10/8) both were destructive in their paths. The 9th hurricane in 2011- IRENE was very destructive and fearful. If you check the history, most of the 9th hurricanes were destructive in nature. Most burial grounds are located on 72nd streets in the United States and if not on a street that begins with the letter “I”. OJ Simpson was living in a house number of 720 (9) when he was accused of murder and lost all of his wealth. Martin Luther King was killed in front of his hotel room number 378 (9). Al Capone the Mafia leader that murdered many was born on 9/27 (9). The Stock Market Crash of 1929 ended in 1935(9) and most of the natural disasters occur around the month of September (9) such as 9/11, the stock market crash of 2008 and the stock market crash of 2011. The Great Depression Era of the United States actually started at the end of 1926 before going into the big crash in 1930.

As you will observe, most stock market crashes occur around the months of September and October, or February. That is because we have two year ends, a lunar one and a solar one. The solar year ends in September-October and the lunar one ends in March. Some Vedic traditions have been following the solar calendar system while others are following the lunar system. The stock market tends to follow the lunar calendar of 13 months. Since September-October is the 9th month, most crashes will happen around that time. Most world disasters also will happen around that time, such as 9/11, the Tsunamis, the hurricanes, the earthquakes and so on.

The Market has seen significant crashes in the years such as the silver crash of 1980, the crash of 1989, 1998, and 2007. The September –October period will always see a significant drop in the energy of the stock market, especially the metals and non-eatable commodities. That is because the end of the universal cycle of waves occurs within these two months and is equal to the 9th wave in the Market as well in every person’s life.

We all get affected by the harvest season and we all get affected by the Stock market crashes at this time in the year. It is also the time when school terms begin and when lots of tuition payments are due. The 9th wave can match the 4th wave correction as well as the 6th wave correction. However the 4th wave is not as bad as the 6th wave and the 9th wave corrections. The 4th wave is a foundation correction, the 6th wave is a directional correction and the 9th wave is a death-renewal correction. The above table includes mostly the death renewal corrections in August-September – October months of the year.
