rules are important

Hi readers

Yesterday for the first time in about 3 years I started seeing professional money being seriously stopped out of positions.
This is a wonderful thing as they are going to have to buy the market back later on to get back in.
The idea that money sits on the sidelines for more 60 days is crap..
No fund manager can sit on the sidelines while the market moves in  either direction.
Media spin out the crap to entertain the public.
If any fund manager has more than 5% allocated to cash they will quickly see his allocation taken away from them by either client or superior.
Not many will tolerate managers holding there money and charging 2% management fees.

Yesterday also I had a lot of fun.
I thought I'd help readers who trade the futures markets with astrological timing.
I believe it was
9 from Australia
3 from New Zealand
3 from United States
4 from Singapore

All did quiet well and made some good money.
I guess sometimes it's good to have a tutor around to help out, as trading is a very lonely game.
Yes Twitter is out there for all to communicate but sometimes people I guess fear asking question which to others would sound stupid but to them it's important.
End result everyone made money, some more than others .
But the objective was to help out and give confidence to those who need it in a skidish market.
Maybe next time will do it in Skype so it's instant, instead of emailing around .
Also I will charge for it and donate that to charities.
It was just an experiment
As I doubt that those involved donated anything.
Which is fine, it is what it is I guess.

The one thing I got out of it,is that not many have rules for trading .
I don't know if people just didn't want to express them but the feed back I got was there isn't any restraint to a trade, in the event it goes wrong.
This is vitally important if you want to survive and make money.
Think of it this way .
If you speed in a 60 zone 75 and get caught you'll pay a $200+ fine to the government for speeding.

In trading if you over trade or margin yourself beyond comfortable levels you'll loose money so why do it ..
There has to be some sort of guidelines which has to be followed.
What that is ,must be work out by you the trader.
I could post one out why would you want to follow it as it won't sit right with you.
Something to think about or you won't be lasting long in this game people.
Markets don't always agree with anything you do, wether it's astrology or technical or numerology.

Example last week I lost a bucket on the NQ trade.
Now if I did what some  readers do my account would be destroyed.
Trading is like a poker game you need first to survive and then make money.
Get it right and you can buy new cars weekly so to speak.
Rules are in place to protect you from making bad trades and to limit your losses.
Something to think about guys

Be patient

Hi readers

As you can see markets are in a tail spin at the present time and while many retail would be panicking over what's going on the smart money is looking at value.
While easierly said than done look at the market and the current valuations.
Stocks that have fallen badly could be good value for long term investments ..
Long term investments are 3-5 years, not weeks.
The banks are still well overvalued at the present time, and I don't think the unknowns have been answered either.
In the energy sector as I said before its all about bankrupting shale oil, nothing else.
With Iran now coming into the market expect oil to trade under $20 soon.
Iron ore is the same game, the amount of mine coming on line around the world including in China is huge yet prices are still around $35-40... That will come down to under $20 before mines start seriously closing.
What that will do to the Australian economy and its people is wake them up from the illusions of living on the Chinese growth.
China's only interest is China not Australia.
So it time for the government to stop the welfare empire from growing and move to the European system.
Assistance for 6 months and then your on your own.
That's the only way the people will learn to save for a rainy day.
This 3 generations on welfare is ridiculous.
It's no wonder people try and hide funds overseas and not pay tax.
As the great Kerry Packer once said.
"I don't mind paying tax if you (the government) spent it wisely".
Today report came out that  the top 1% own more wealth that the 99% of us..what a said fact.

On the political front.. Hilary got some media competion in Bernie Sanders. That's healthy.
Hilary just need to be smart and not do anything stupid like Donald.

Is Donald flexing his muscles at the Republician party and it's processes.
Going after the preferred candidates and making them look stupid.
Wether Ted Cruz can run or not the end result is he has burn himself, with the comment made about New Yorkers, taking loans from Investment banks.
Sunshine there is no way people are going to vote for him after that information surfaced.
So the only serious runners are again Trump the time bomb, the surgeon, and the politician.
I'm still backing the surgeon.

In the NFL well the packers where ok but we just couldn't hold out as I was hoping we could with the injuries we had.. Good effort by the boys but need to seriously do some running back recruiting.

Now I'm watching OBE one..
They are coming from a long way back but deserve to and should make it.
Big Ben is just that the big show, until the Bronco's move on Manning this games is for the steelers to loose.
Manning was a good Quarterback, but can't hit a target consistantly more than 20 yards.
Current score as this is written up
0-6 Broncos.

In small cap stocks people you tend to find retail money freak out and sell all winning trades while holding losses.
Set your prices or wait for it to settle down before entering the market.
A lower $A increases Farm Prides profitability. Remember that 

Dam Mercury retrograde

Hi readers

Welcome to Mercury retrograde.
Apple wants to buy Time warner, that won happen and if it does it will bleed Apple dry.
The economy grew in the last quarter , maybe then again maybe not.
NFLX isnt keeping it trial subscribers as thought...What's new...

Market took a nose dive from lack of buyers, on a positive astrological day.. This is a very bad sign people.

Fact that the market was down last night has me very concerned and I'm putting stops on.
It's been my experience that if the market freaks out and trades opposite to the astrology then there is seriously some thing wrong with the market.
I strong urge you all to use caution, as that's a warning sign of trouble.
Up or down not sure let the market work in sync with the astrology.

My stops will be for those who want to know

ES 1867
NQ 4153
ASX SPI 4817

This is not how I planned my year to start so we adapt to market conditions and move on .

Jan astrology still stands

13th Positive
14th Positive
18th Positive
20th Negative
22nd Negative big day
25th Mercury goes direct

ASX SPI 4878-83
Es 1897-1901
NQ 4249-55

Please note that I will be closing out of position Friday morning singapore time.

This would have to be my proudest moment for 2016 so far


Hi James 

It's 10.15am on Wednesday morning and as you predicted BHP is under $15 dollars as you clearly said.
Since I first started reading your posts BHP was trading at $32.35 and had a heated email discussion regarding your forecaste as apposed to my brokers (Macquarie ) outlook on the stock.
As the stock traded under $30 I started to get worried that you could be right.
As you saw from the transaction I sent you I lost $225,000 in my CFD account.
I'm not a very wealthy man but thought this was the time to make it .

I reversed the position on the 25th of May and never looked back.
I haven't paid you a cent and yet you have just help me make over $6 million.
How the cards fell on BHP or what I don't know I am just so truly thankful.
My wife still can't believe we have made so much .
I have send you copies of the trades for you to post them on your blog. 
So your readers can see that your astrology does work.
Monica has asked me if we are able to come and see you and thank you for everything you have done for us.
Also please email me a charity you want me to donate to.
I'm in your debt should you need anything of me .
Thank you James 
Trevor & Monica 

outlook

Hi readers

For those who want to know I have closed out my shorts on stocks and indexes carried from last year, yesterday.

Let's look at the year ahead, as we are going to go through a turbulent year.
2016 is going to be a very profitable year for many earth and fire signs , while air and water signs will struggle if not humble.
The key word here is humble!
The stubbornness of earth and fire signs will be there down fall if not humble.
A 9 year is very profitable with good volitility in markets. People born in odd years you will find it very easy to make decisions this year.

If you go back and read past posts you will see that the Chinese have still a long way to go before they get out of there mess there in so this will drag on this whole year.
The quicker they come to terms with letting the market go to its true value the quicker they will get over the mess there in.
Propping up the market with state funds and retail investors is borrowing time.

Oil.
Yes there is a glut of oil at the present time but not at levels the media is stating.
This is all about Saudi Arabia protecting its future and future earnings.
If oil has to drop to $15 a barrel it will as long as shale oil goes bankrupt.
This is at any cost game so don't think oil will bounce back to $50.
Talks of cuts are nothing more than media hype. Just feeding the mice what they need to hear.

Iron ore
Same scenario there is a cartel playing around with the market.
Blaming the Chinese slowdown on prices yet selling far more than the market can handle.
Little did I realise until I obtain an email from a friend who has clearly shown the forward sales of production until 2019 at a set price.
Way above the current prices, posting shelf companies as buyers at current prices and selling to contract buyers . Third party
Nothing illegal about it, it's just saves the company billions in potential tax and put the Australian government out of pocket.

No disrespect to the Australian readers but you do have state governments there who paid I believe $1.6 billion in compensation not to build a road, yet you so badly need it.
Government in Australia don't have the smartest tools in the shed so to speak.
As my American reader David said once (DUMB PEOPLE BREED MORE DUMB PEOPLE. PEOPLE WHO VOTE AND LISTEN TO DUMB PEOPLE BECOME DUMB.
That's why the gap between haves and have not is so great.

In regards to grains at the present time they are very cheap.
I'm a big fan of grains because no matter what happens people must eat.
Animals must eat, and with climate change so real supply will always be affected.
Farmers are the most smartest people around they just play dumb to get what they need.
Talk to a farmer about an issue and talk to a metro person about the same issue and you get very different answers, truly fascinating.

Not a metals fan this year again it will be a sluggish year for metals, second half will show some light but not worth investing in them.

In stocks
I found a number of real good potential companies with huge upside in them, some have moved up aggressively with news of development while others are dormant at the present time.
Until the astrology is done on them  I refuse to post out who they are.

With my own play I bought some Stock before the year was out at 1.05-1.10, but still looking to pick up more at the right price.
What tends to happens when markets get jolted around is many small and medium investors sell out of profitable stocks to buy blue chip stocks thinking they are cheap.
Only to realise the can fall just as easy as any other stock.
That's why patients will be hugely rewarded 2016

2016. Here we go

Hi readers

Happy new year to you all ..
First I want to say thank you to all of you who sent emails and XMAS wishes.
I met so many of you while in Melbourne and Sydney it was wonderful.
Never expected to met so many CEO of small and medium companies, it was wonderful to see so many diverse people taking an interest in financial astrology.

So where are we at with the market.
BHP is now trading at the $15 level as expect.
China is still trying to hold back what has to happen.
America raised rates thinking all will be ok.
Economies around the world are showing sign on contraction.
Governments around the world are looking to raise tax revenue.
Currency war is alive and ripe.

So all in all the world economy is in a dangerous period.
It's now more than ever that you will need astrological guidance to give you an idea of what's ahead.

I want to seriously stress that trading is a business.
It's not for those looking for an ego rush or an ego trip for that matter.
If not taken seriously you will loose a lot of money, and some will fall into drepression if not taken seriously.
The market will take your money and spit you out like chewing gum.
When people start out in business they do there research, learn the job and then look at getting into it.
Work hard to succeed, and yes long hours.
The result is job satisfaction that you did something and got paid for doing it .
For some unknown reason when it comes to trading people put there full trust in charting and that's it.
Then when charting goes wrong they blame charting and not themselves for failing to research.
Loosing life savings and then arguing with people around them.

I totally understand it's hard to find good peoples do ask for help.
Many stockbrokers and financial planners are and always will be failed traders.
Some will tell you while others will refuse to admit the truth.
There are tho some who are seriously good people, who can help you.
All you need to do is ASK for help.
Calling a broker and asking every morning what he thinks of the market is not asking for help.
That's called an opinion.

Note this.. your trading against 490 million account 37,000 hedgefunds, 3100 pension funds and 200 wealth funds.
Even in Australia the ass end of the world has these accounts looking at the market daily.

So please think about the above before deciding to trade.

Last post for 2015

Hi Readers

Posting the last update for the year as its time to enjoy the profits we have made over the year.

So we got a rate rise and the market ran up.
Those of you who trade markets for a living will realise it was the ideal pump and dump play.
In the end market is right where it was before the rate move.
Best time for the rate rise was in July, now it's way too late.
People, professional money simply boost the market up to catch amature short and then dump it right back to where it started the move.
Please remember when trading your up against algorithms and computer programs which can detect weight of numbers.
That's why charts alone are a very weak tool, as these systems know and detect when buys and sells will be triggered.
Now we have computers detecting computers, it's simply get way out of hand.
Trading daily is becoming deadly for amature traders.
I've never seen a market stay up after a rate rise followed into XMAS, how could it be good for the market?
Anyway I'm holding some nice shorts in stocks, that ran up..
Yes AAPL, NFLX and BHP.
Australian market could be in for a tailspin Monday as BHP has had its assets frozen by a court in South America.
While it won't be the end of BHP, it is seriously now damaging its name.
To our Astrological stock I saw on Thursday a number of small funds and brokerage house now own the stock also.
It's easy to see as the stock is held in good hands.
Not much gets flipped .

On the political front, in America .... Trump is really stirring the pot, and now we see the establishment ganging up to push him out.
Now you can see why trump is a loose cannon.
It's disappointing that the republican party won't support there best candidate to win in Ben Carson ..
Bush and the others will loose seats not gain.
It's true the country can't afford another Bush .

In Australia the honeymoon is over for Malcom Turnbal.
His done everything the media has ask for and his the Mr fix it .
Now it's time to show his leadership.. Both he and his supporters (Bishop and Morrison) will face a very difficult period next 3 months.

I'm heading to Australia for a couple of weeks, for holiday and research.
Will be back on the 12th of Jan.
Just want to wish you all a safe and happy XMAS and a wonderful new year.
