Andy, I wouldn't count on this assumption.  It is likely that the 
dominant cycle itself may be composed of several major influences.

An objective observer would only need to take a look at any market's 
trading range - is there no dominant cycle at play here, or could it 
be that there are two or more influences, balancing & canceling each 
other out?

Base assumptions about the markets can be dangerous stuff - it can 
lead to a lifetime of pursuits based on little that resembles the 
reality of the markets.  One only needs to take a look at Gann "market 
cycles". Fib, etc, to see this.
Ooopsey, now I've stirred the hornets' nest.  :)
