Delta Society Intl./Financial Matrix Ltd./Calendar Research Inc. are three Wall Street advisory firms which teach the ability to predict stock and futures prices using Lunar architecture and Fibonacci Square root mathematics.

Above three companies are Internet based and here is a thread for discussion of their methods or other astrological prediction methods which are lunar/mathematics based.
 
I am a new member currently unable to post URL's or images.

When I attain 15 post status, I will post many impressive charts and compelling images.
 
Why do I think "random walk" when I see stuff like this? Or, "Rising tide lifts all boats"?
 
Well, don't just drop a steaming pile of claims in our laps without also providing the evidence to back them up!

If there is evidence that it actually works, then show it or the links to it.

Otherwise, welcome aboard.
 
Not buyin it. Too silly.

I mean really. The moon affects stocks. Seriously.

Edit: I don't mean that as an insult on you Robert. Smart people can believe silly things sometimes. Welcome.

If you stick with this thread, you may be convinced there is no such thing as Random Walk. (unable to insert smiley here until 15 posts)

Indeed.

Thanks.

Why are you trying to steal thunder from my bayesian analysis threads?
 
The moon probably does affect stocks. Seasons certainly seem to. And longer (and shorter) climate change cycles probably do too. Doesn't mean one can't base a horsehit theory off of legitimate factors that affect stock prices.

Based on a hidden order which can be solved for any financial market, The Delta Phenomenon, discovered by Welles Wilder® actually plots expected market turning points, in advance, for any market, and any time frame.

The Market Matrix is a very powerful tool, powerful enough to predict future stock market prices, currencies, interest rates and any other traded instrument in the world. It is based on simple mathematics and has its foundations starting with the formation of the universe.

The newsletter focuses on identifying those points in time that may witness an emotional reaction and an accompanying market trend change. Traditional technical tools, especially sentiment indicators, are used to supplement the calendar analysis.

I am unconvinced.
 
Of course, if enough people bought into that idea, then they would buy a little early and sell a little early, and lo, the link is off a little. Then people would attempt to anticipate the anticipators, and the even a naïve treatment soon produces complex (chaotic?) behaviours.

Predicting the trading behaviour of independent intelligent agents in a speculative environment involves second guessing them. And they are going to be trying to second-guess you. I'd recommend insider trading as the only surefire method (from a practical and not moral POV).

Maybe it doesn't happen now. (Yes I am just going to pay Silvia Browne for a reading to confirm this).
 
From the thread title, I expected this to be about how we can predict the orbit of the moon with great accuracy (btw, assuming a simple elliptical orbit doesn't work very well, because it's not a two-body problem).

Getting a model to fit existing data is easy, if you include enough fudge factors. That it "predicted" past behavior the model was designed around doesn't mean it has any predictive power concerning the future. I have no reason to suspect anything beyond that with any stock market analysis that incorporates astrology.
 
God bless you and the counterhierarchy you've adopted to keep your self-esteem independent from those genetically/biologically etc. better able to utlitize empircism than you. I think you and your friends should be able to have your fun, and if for some reason you occasionally go bankrupt, remember to vote for higher taxes on those arrogant bastards to redistribute some fun money back to you and your friends. Fcuk scientists, applied mathematicians, etc. It's you, me, and Albert Einstein against those a-holes, Robert Gordon.
