Moon cycles? Can they affect financial markets? Full moons are an often cited time for rallies in the metals markets. Below are some times of day that may have some effect on the metals or equity indexes. It's a new indicator and still experimental but if any one would like to join the fun and help me look for correlations please join in. They may be especially useful to futures or day traders as possible times for intra-day or pre-market ramps and selloffs. I can't reveal at this time how they are calculated. I will be updating them monthly.
New format:
The new times should probably be given 30 minutes leeway in either direction until we see how they work. The major and minor times are the same as before but the alt times should also be watched. Much like a Bradley turn it's important to use price or other indicators to anticipate what may happen. Though they often mark intra-day reversals they may only be corrections or even accelaration in the trend. My old source was somewhat unreliable so I've moved to a different calculation.
