Trading The SPI - Gann Techniques

[wayneL]

This thread is for SPI trading discussion using any sort of Gann techniques.

Some ground rules.

No hindsite trades.

No solicitation of education services.

The posting of dollar sums of profit or loss is discouraged.

Do not post information or discussion on technique if you are not prepared to answer questions. Preservation of intellectual property is fine, but please, no teasers. This will be viewed as backdoor solicitation.

DO ask questions and partake in discussions for mutual benefit

DO respect peoples time and opinion.

Live calls of trades would be much better in the chatroom due to the inevitable time lag with the forum, and we would encourage people to post live trades there.

Thankyou

OK that all the stern moderator stuff out of the way.

Please enjoy.

Hi folks,

You will remember, for some months we have been
calling for XJO to go beserk in Feb 2007. Well, you
will be glad to know, that nothing has changed !~!

So far, XJO has been trading to the script, but the
best is yet to come ... for, if you think our XJO has
been strong, just wait a couple of weeks for the
grand finale in this rally !~!

Whilst there is an underlying negative cycle,
that will bring on long-term changes, Feb 2007
may bring us, some spectacular short-term gains.

So, looking at XJO time cycles for February 2007:

05-06022007 ... minor and positive light on XJO

08022007 ... minor aspect, but positive too

09022007 ... negative close ???

12022007 ... serious rally may get started

15-21022007 ... XJO goes into the stratosphere?

20022007 ... XJO = 1440 days out from 13032003 low !~!

24022007 ... XJO = 1444 days out from 13032003 low ...
1444 = natural square of 38 .....

07032007 ... 2 cycles here ... a NEGATIVE
spotlight on XJO, possibly partly due to
finances (interest rates?) or a currency rise ?

02042007 and 11042007 may also be interesting
dates for XJO, in April 2007.

happy days

yogi

P.S. ..... and the best part being ... we get to see
an uninhibited repeat of February madness,
yet again, from 10-18 October 2007 ... !~!

Hello Yogi,


Interestingly the cycles I come up with line up with yours Yogi: 24 February 2007 may be a significant date for the XAO, with 06 February 2007 as a minor increment, and 01 April 2007 as a major increment. I made mention of the 24th on the Zinc thread a week or so ago…

Essentially I’d expect a high on the 24th Feb if the time cycle I see is correct, (but if this is exceeded, may see a blow off into 01 April for a high). So the actual high may be + or – 1 trading day from 23 Feb or 26 Feb (22 – 27), but would expect the high on either the Friday or the Monday.

If this cycle is wrong, the alternative is 12 Feb and 20 March. Oddly enough 12 Feb lines up with your date too Yogi. Of course both cycles may be running concurrently… If the 24th is a low, I’d expect a possible high on 01 April.

How it plays out will depend on the price action – could be a blow off into 24 Feb or 01 April, or could be a distribution pattern that ends in a false break. If the 24th Feb is a low (or possibly a high), could see a blow off into 01 April from there, but suspect this might be a lower high or a low…

I certainly think that a strong move up to exhaust the move around the 15-21 Feb sounds quite plausible to me given that the market plays out the way it seems to be going.

Additionally, the Elliott Wave count seems to confirm this being a wave 5 of 5 of 3, (possibly a major end to a wave 3 in the longer term pattern). Could see 4800 or more if a major correction gets underway.

Of course this could just be an “ABC” then continue bullishly.

It will be interesting to see this in action. It is possible though from the 06 Feb onwards that a high comes in before the 24th is reached since this kind of cycle can exhaust prematurely…

It is interesting to see some very close correlation in our dates Yogi. I think you may be right, February will be an interesting month. What is noteworthy too is that we are arriving at very similar dates coming from different schools.

The other dates I neglected to include was the minor 14 March... and the majors - 13 April... and the 31 May...

More gobbledygook for those not into time cycles... but as we near these, I’ll try to flesh out what the pattern of trend may be indicating.

Intersesting posts - look forward to updates.

 

[Magdoran]

Current thinking for key dates now that the Feb 24 high is in… (All 2007 dates).



Crude oil – next key date 19 March (I was projecting this to hit $68.77 on that day, but may have to revise this).

DAX – Major dates: 10 March, 15 April (favourite for a top), 21 May; Minor date: 28 March.

NASDAQ – Major dates: 15 March (top?), 02 May, Minor: 09 March.

DOW – Major dates: 15 March (Top?), 27 March.

Gold - Major dates: 31 March, 12 April.

Yes Yogi,


This just illustrates the strength of Gann timing techniques if you know what you are doing, doesn’t it?

It was interesting that our times lined up. Freaky really since we’re using interpretations from opposite ends of the Gann spectrum, but share the core concepts…

Great call Yogi, well done.

Me, behave? Never@!!!

Actually it’s way too early for drinking, and there is a lot to do…

Still have to review the futures, that’s my chore now…

But thanks for the sentiment…

Hang on, aren't we still in February?

I only see highs been spoken about in February there. Where's the crash? Pretty convenient turning predictions about 'stratospheric' gains into a top... Hhhmmm, not convinced really Yogi. Perhaps I'm reading it wrong.

 

[yogi-in-oz]

Hi Kennas,

You may not be convinced ... but, some of us have been around long
enough to recognise a blow-off top, when it comes along .....

..... so, we hope you are out by Monday Kennas, as
we will likely see more blood spilt, then ... !~!

(... see post above for more details)

..... as per post above, more XJO bloodshed expected next week,
on WEDNESDAY 07 March 2007, in particular ... to test support
several times, before a minor positive move, expected around the
March equinox, on 20022007 .....

..... but, some currencies may be in a positive mode
around 07032007, too ...???

Hey, Yogi,


Do you have a time/price projection currently for the low of this bearish phase in the XAO?

Also, have you done much work on commodities like Gold, Oil and the metals recently?

I’d be interested in comparing notes if you’d like to, since some of the cycles I’m seeing are about as clear cut a vibration as I’ve seen in a long time. Are you seeing something along the same lines too?


Mag

 

[hissho]

hi Yogi and Mag
your Gann approach is just so intriguing!
any update on XJO analysis? or even on US markets?

thanks

 

[hissho]

just to bump this topic...

any updates Yogi and Mag? Thanks!
