3 star turndate tomorrow?
Yes, I am hoping that we see something of meaning...we'll see...
TraderGirl,
Could you explain the significance of a 3 star turndate for someone (me) that knows nothing about it?
Here is an excerpt from Merriman..
These dates affect all markets. They are the midpoint of geocosmic clusters, and have a range of three days either side. Sometimes they expand to as much as 5 days. The idea is to see a new two-week or greater high or low, and then a reversal. It is especially effective when major, half-primary, or primary cycle troughs are due. These are more important than the solar-lunar reversal dates. The more the stars, the greater the historical correlation with a cycle end and reversal. For more information, please read Volume 3 of the Stock Market Timing series. Below is the date of the midpoint and in parentheses the length of time containing the geocosmic signatures (known as a “cluster”). If the cluster is very long (more than 15 days), there may be other possible reversals, based on tighter geocosmic clusters, within the greater cluster.
February 7** (we are here now, and USA stocks are making highs)
February 14***
February 25**
These periods are usually more important than the solar-lunar reversal zones, but not necessarily any more accurate. It’s just that when they do hit, they usually correspond with primary cycle, whereas lunar reversals need only correspond to 2.5% reversals.
The period of January 25-March 6 is a very long time band with numerous geocosmic signatures with no more than 6 calendar days separating any two consecutive signatures. Thus, this may be a ragged time with different markets reversing at different times within this time band, whose midpoint is Feb 14. It may favor short-term, aggressive trading as opposed to position trading, especially as Mercury is retrograde Feb 23-March 17.
