    SS who is a 4 poster on ET (new to ET possibly) has opened a discussion.
    Why not let the discussion roll on, I'm not a believer of predictions nor a believer in astrology, but I do like to hear people discuss issues outside of mainstreet thinking.
    Shutting down an idea with stupid comments creates a reluctance which is counter productive.

    Actually I think in truth it has long been recognised that astronomical occurrences coincide with stock price movements. But what I'd like to know before investing is "How?".

    I would not accept this. Reason...most, common , repetitive, orbital, future motion is known. Question is: has it been correctly discounted.

    Well I suppose it's like the old worn out TA argument.
    The critics of TA say "prove it", (which some do) but also TA critics can't get it to work for them so they assume it is snake oil for everyone.
    My observation on the subject of Astro and trading, those who are true believers are so secretive of their methods you would think they were Masonic Lodge members.
    So no matter how far the discussion goes regarding Astro & trading, you will never learn anything because of this 'secretive' attitude they have.
    Which brings on the next thought, anyone who is habitually super secretive may have something to hide - their failings.
    So not wishing to torpedo this thread, I would love to hear an open discussion on it but I'm not holding my breath that this would ever happen.

    Errr, WD Gann? Credibility?
    Welles Wilder I think is also questionable.

    As for the others I must confess my ignorance, dunno them and not gonna bother looking them up. Sorry.

    Astrology might work, there just might not be any good astrologers around.

    Yes, now this is something useful, thanks for the links.
    I then found this very recent article https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnna...-astrology-and-the-stock-market/#2a718f261343
