Using a Maximum Entropy approach to
determining the cycles
in the DOW from 1920 till now
indicates that a 34.3 year and
an 8.3 year cycle are more
prominant than the 15.8 year.
With the indicated 3 cycles I use a
"strategy" which I wrote to
obtain the most profitable alignment
of the phases of these 3
cycles combined (see red/blue/red/
... curve). The "profit"
(DOW points) going long when plot is
blue and short when plot
is red if almost 20,000 points
seeming to point out that trading
the cycles would be slightly better
than buy and hold.

Subject: RE: [RT] Market status
To me the most dominant cycle in the market via the Dow is 16
years (see attached chart).
As to impulse dates, my analysis
all depends upon which index one chooses. For the Russell 2000 and
NYSE I get a 11/13 impulse date; for the Dow, a 11/14 impulse date; for the
NASDAQ a 11/17 impulse date; and for the S&P I really get no outstanding
date. Since 11/14 is the middle date I would guess that either the
13th or 14th to be a intermediate top or bottom and either the 14th or 17th
to be either the start of a leg up or
down.
