1 minute Sept T-bonds drawn for EDT.

NW: Thanks for asking. I have been so busy, I forgot to check on the
Bond trade
until you asked tonight. Just for confirmation, would some kind person
please
post a one minute bar chart for Sept. T-Bonds for the first half of
the day on
Friday, July 16, 1999? Please have a good time and price scale
attached so
everyone can see exactly what the price was at the key times. Also, if
not too
much trouble, draw it for EDT as this will be less confusing due to my
posting
the aspects for EDT. Please designate which time zone. Thanks.
Now for a description of the results based on CBOT time and
sales for
Sep. T-Bonds.. (EDT) The market opened on Friday (8:20 AM) at 116-27
to 116-28.
It then rallied for the next half hour peaking with 117-14 trading
between
8:52:31 and 8:53:55. The market then dropped to about 117-01 during
the next 15
minutes. At this time, another rally began, going up in an Elliott
Wave ABC
pattern. Our aspect was due to kick in at 10:07 AM EDT. At 10:07:06
Sep. T-Bonds
traded 117-07, so we would have been short at this price. As you may
remember,
we expected a negative influence from this aspect. Sep. T-Bonds then
continued
higher to a high of 117:13 trading between 10:12:30 - 10:12:54.
>From this high, the market dropped rather precipitously to a low of
116-16
occurring at 10:51:32 AM. Then there was a bounce over the next ten
minutes to
about 116-24. Our target time of 11:07 was represented by a second
test of the
lows with a trade at 116-19 trading at 11:06:59.
Summary: Sold short Sep. T-Bonds at 117-07, closed trade via buy at
116-19 for +
20 ticks = $625 before commissions and slippage.
So, two S&P trades for + $1,250 and one Bond trade for + $625 =
$1,875.
Coincidence? Lucky?

NW: Jim, you have the times and trading parameters. It would be great
if you
could report back with the DJIA results. Remember, CBOT time and sales
will be
CDT and I posted the aspects in EDT, so either subtract one hour from
my times
or add one hour the the CBOT times. Thanks.

of a

NW: I have been doing this in my head and on hand drawn charts since
1975. I
know it works. The analogy is I have told you where the treasure is
and shown
you a sample. Your reply is to ask me to go dig up some more treasure
for you.
If I have to do all that work, I am going to keep it for myself.
Additionally, even if I did all the work you asked, which I have
already done
and it is buried in storage,
the skeptics would cry that I somehow fudged the numbers. So, if you
want a
really scientific study, I suggest someone with no bias (not me) run
the test.
But, what I really believe is that even after you see thousands of
data points
you will still be skeptical until you see it happen before your eyes a
few
times.
After 25 years of watching these aspects on an intra-day basis, I am
still
amazed.

NW: Jim, with all due respect, I don't have time to do that. All I can
say is
that I think for the aspects I have posted in the past couple of
years, my
recollection is that I am batting about 85% winners. I will let the
other RTers
be my judge and jury.
Now let me ask you and some of the RTers a question. Did you
require
this type of rigorous proof before you plopped down two or three
thousand
dollars for Trade Station, Meta Stock, or a similar program? Most
trading
programs advertise based on optimized results that occurred over a
relatively
short period of time. These optimized methods are likely to fail as
they only
capture some temporary pattern in the market. Now, I have pointed you
at
something based in nature and 5,000 years of studies,
which if it works, there is no reason it should not continue to work
for another
5,000 years. Perhaps it is worth further study and investigation? I
have shown
you the path and which way to "Emerald City".
The next step is yours.
Pointingly,
Norman
