weekend review.

Hello all

To the financial astrology students as we have seen this Sag Moon is a growing moon as I stated in the previous posts.
The power of understanding astrology.
Now what you need to do is find the low in all growing commodities, Coffee, Cotton, Wheat Corn or Oats. Once you establish that a 2% move below that price will negate  the astrology.
So yes they popped up which was wonderful but they can also still fall.
The 19th is the sealer so its like a jig saw puzzle when you looking at serious moves up and your just placing foundations down for the move.
I did say the could doesn't mean the will.
No I have not taken any positions as we had some small technical issues with our system this week.

To the MA we took a hit this week which was disappointing but the simple fact is, the market refused to go down on negative astrology while pushing higher when the astrology was waning.

That's telling me that this market has a hell of a lot of juice and can turn it on in a heart beat.
There is no point shorting for a couple of point when the move is to 1530 at least before month end.
Frightening but true,considering we have the debt ceiling talks already hitting a brick wall for next month..

To the metal players Platinum is the only metal I'd be buying the rest are a dead basket case.
Gold is just teasing investors, and with no positive astrology I don't see how it will stay at present levels.

In the currencies time has come to start looking at spreads across the board.
A$ is looking very rich while the yen is looking like a good buy.
Euro is looking very rich and the dollar is looking like a bargain...
Do your homework on them.

With some of giant tech firms reporting NASDAQ might struggle this week while the SP should power ahead.

Please be careful this week as there is a lot of cross currents in astrology that will catch many out.
Money which has come out of the commodities and bond funds is being put to work in Equity funds, so please be aware of it..
Yes I am aware that the technicals are screaming overbought but they screamed over bought periously for months.
So please be humble as we will also.

Hello all

We are now entering into a Sag New Moon.
For the financial astrology students this is a moon that tends to bottom out Agri commodities.
Yes that means softs, grains, cattle and  hogs etc.

That doesn't mean metals.
Metals don't grow, this is a growing new moon.
The degree's in which it is coming in at will have bottoms to many of the above markets.
That doesn't mean that they will make what ever the previous low was.
It means that the low which will come over the next 24-48 hours will hold for a while.
Do your homework and look at whats near or close to there lows and see if they interest you.

In the market the AA news was I thought disappointing but the market doesn't agree with me at the present time.
We currently have the ECB spinning out crap about supporting to the high hills the euro and the China news is saying they are back on line..
Well we shall see about that in Feb/March.
I have done the Chinese horoscopes of both the country and the new president and they aren't good so, we will have to wait for this illusion to play itself out first.

For those who want to know which options I'm looking at
Cotton July 79calls
Coffee July  180 calls...
Please look at what suites you and decide for yourselves.
In the market interesting times, last day or so no negative or positive astrology.
There is positive astrology tomorrow so see what plays out.

Hello all

This is what I mean by being smart about looking to take up positions in softs.
The market is down at the present time, dollar is also stronger and coffee is down over 2%
Because it closed above 150 the March contract doesn't mean anything.
Softs are not indexes where most times are true to the break outs... softs 90% of the time are fake outs.
Where the illusion of a move is yet the producers are selling into it.
I don't want to go into the dynamics of it but please be smart about it..
No I have not bought any positions in either yet as I said we have until the 19th to purchase position.
The one thing you need to be aware of is that, anyone who has bought the March contract has lost money as most traders and market makers are short.
The one thing that will squeeze the shit out of them is weather damage to crops, which isn't been taken into account.(because of cocoa)
This is what the astrology is showing so your aware of it.

On another note AA is reporting after the close and I think they might report disappointing numbers numbers.
 The guidance I think is what many will be looking at and I don't see them being to positive with the Chinese slowdown play out.
I might hold the shorts after the close to see the numbers and if they are what I think we might get that quick spike down .

Venus in Cap 11.11pm
Remember be smart and wait for the opportunity to arise..

Hello all.
Markets trying to decide which way to go while the technicals are up.
Metals are fighting to stay afloat and the softs are gathering momentum.( astrologically speaking).

We are still holding our shorts at the present time confident of the move in our favor.

For the financial astrology students
Tomorrow we have Venus moving into Capricorn.
Also the VC kicks in after the close so regardless tomorrow I will be closing out shorts as the energy is starting to wane.
So it looks as tho the market might run for a while on illusion.. and be sure to write down the gap that still exists as when we go down later on that will be  a target area.

To the soft commodity traders yes tomorrow is the beginning of a coffee move but it won't really get going until the 19th of this month.
So I guess it up to you how you go about it.
I'm looking at both cotton and coffee.
Also looking at the options on both dec calls but futures July.
Please note we don't really care where the technicals are we are looking at what the astrology is showing.
Yes crop damages are on the cards for both.
As my work is showing so be aware you have been warned.
To the bulls you have 9 trading days to set yourselves up do watch how it trades, you don't have to jump in tomorrow.
Let the technical traders play with it, and buy when it's down.
To this I'm looking at a gold or silver sell as a hedge.
But time is on our side here so let's be smart.
I'm looking for end of year 260 coffee and 120. Cotton , won't surprise me if we see these prices in September before a correction tho .

Q&A

Its been put to me many times as to how can the bonds be sliding while the economy is weak and with the tax hike these will kill of any green shoots.

When you first look at the astrology sure there isn’t much support and up or down move at the present time.

Then when you look at the economics of it you see the changes.

Now to some of you this might be hard to see as the US tertiary system no longer teach old fashion economics. Which I don’t understand why as the Treasury and the fed are using old school economics yet we are more concerned about the words they use in there language speeches.

I say the above because the only place in the world that excluded just about everything except wages growth from inflation is the United States.

Power usage, grocery costs, energy, luxury good, clothing all these should be calculated in Inflation yet in America their not. (I’m talking about core inflation).

So what’s old school economics?

When a countries currency is low the first thing you do is write up debt.

The more you write the lower your currency falls, which you want, short term.

In the mean time your country low currency helps exporters gain market, against competitors.

Your companies begin making nice profits and the economy gains as a hole.

That’s the short and sweet of it.

The US hasn’t had the ability to pay any of the debt it’s written up in the last 10 year.

With low tax receipt that was very obvious.

In the current climate where taxes have gone back to 2001 levels and spending cuts have been made it’s a start to what’s to come.

The currency will begin to gain value whipping off 20-30% of the US debt just by appreciating value.

Now I’m not say the US will pay its debt off what I’m saying it will make moves to.

The amount of debt going forward to fund the government will slow down therefore make bond yield pick up.

As a result bond will begin to slide.

Don’t be sucked into the new way of thinking economics as the decision makes are using traditional old fashion methods.

My personal opinion the US has to stop being the worlds sheriff and look at itself.

The US military budget should be cut to a quarter of what it is.

Clinton was the only president that cut defence spending and the US was running economically.

Anyway I hope this answer your question on economic understanding.

This is why I say there is no reason to hold preservation of capital (gold/silver).

I’m sure some more very experience investors like Eric Sprott and other have their reasons behind being massive metals bulls, but my work doesn’t support their views.

Please note that the Sprott investment vehicles are also very interlinked to the price of the metals.

So should the metals fall these investments will also fall.

Please just be open-minded when you read or hear stuff over the net.

In regards to coffee the time is upon us next week so until then just wait.

Reason I’m bullish on coffee this year is that serious weather damage will hit the growing regions.

Copper too looks good for a potential long-term trade but not yet.

Waiting for the astrology to kick in and with news of the ETF to come on line the market will be supportive of the metal.

Hello Readers

Once again another bad day for the commodities.
To the MA once again you will see we attacked gold again at 1658.40 and covered at the 1630 level.
All in all a wonderful week for the MA's over 4% in 2 days.
While this is great please note that this is the exception not the norm.


Its important for all to understand that I am not a gold hater just a trader.
I get paid on the money I make for clients not the calls I make.
The easiest thing to do is just make calls on contracts with out fear as there is no financial loss.
When there is financial pressure on the decision you make peoples stress levels or pressure to cope increases 10 fold.
When there is loss the calls become far more precise. Just Be aware of it.


We also took up shorts in the market 1456.25 and 1460 and holding over the weekend.
Note for all as we do have weakness over the coming days be aware to the fact that if money is coming out of Fixed interest and Commodities well its got to go somewhere.
Its doesn't just sit in cash.

Market today had a nice up move but without the leader AAPL.
So can the market keep trading higher without AAPL time will tell but I dont think so.

Enjoy your weekend

Hello Readers

Happy New to you all ...

First... I want to say thank you to all who have become new Managed Accounts.
We did our first trade as you will see tonight in your statements.
Sold gold at 1680.50 closed out at 1664.
It's very important to note when your start trading or a business or anything of the nature that your first move is always the right move.
So ours was and yes we are very pleased.
This is why it was important to be ready by 4am 3rd Jan.

Second....I would like to welcome all new readers , traders, hedge fund managers  and astrologers to the blog.
Should you have any questions please feel free to make comments and should you want your questions personal you can always email Barracoutta@gmail.com

The agreement or arrangement that was done, regarding the fiscal cliff was ok.
Problem was it was done with Mercury in Capricorn at zero degrees which is a major problem.
Sure it took the world stage but as I have mentioned to other fellow astrologers as it moves to 1,2,3 degrees cracks and real understanding isn't going to be what was agreed upon, so watch the space.
How will the market react! will be interesting!!

After all the WHO WHA has finished with the end of year new year juniors trading, professional money is on board today and the rest comes on Monday.
As everyone is still talking up the rally and everyone feels great a reality check is coming so just be aware of it.
Markets don't go up in straight lines, and with the present gaps in the market there is no way this market will run up until they are filled.
I'm no tech guy so please check your own work or ask someone who knows technicals.

1420-1438 gap is massive.
Even a 1426-1438 gap is huge.
I see it like bricking a house.
Ok 1 maybe 2 bricks no big deal you can get away with not putting them in.
But when you leave out 18 bricks and your trying to build on top there is no way that's going to hold.
So just be aware of it.

To the metals readers well don't say I didn't warn you, the world never ended, so the reason for buy gold is what now?
Don't freak out if we see a $50 down very soon.
My concern is if it breaks $1600 there could be a huge pocket, please be careful and hedge yourselves.
In regards to gold stocks any of them which are not hedged to the price of gold at these levels dump them, as they will half in price soon.
Please remember the lower the price of gold trade, the less gold the ETF has to hold and therefore just increases the move down.
Yes I'm going to be attacking the metals aggressively this year, as it will be a bad year for them when the astrology assists.

Yes I will be teaching astrology this year.

For the students of astrology and for those who want to be able to have some understanding of how it works.
First will be understanding astrology?
How it works ?
How to use the Void of Coarse?
How the planets affect human behaviours and how to use them in trading.
Aspects to the V/C
New/Full Moon, super Moon
You need to understand the differences between a Super and a dud moon in the Financial Market.
This coarse will take a few hours.

I'm also looking at either skype conferencing or doing one on one.
My preference is for one on one at the present time.


This is the foundation to understand financial astrology once you gel this information your will begin to see the real advantage you will have in the markets and the difference in your own trading.
Please note if financial astrology saves you from making 1 or even 2 bad trades a year or month its has served its purpose.
As one reader said  It's insurance. worth every cent.
