Getting up a tad earlier than usual on Monday morning this week was certainly worth it!
The Supermoon eclipse was a rare and magnificent sight – and one that I will remember for a long time to come.
Apparently we will not see another 'Super Blood Moon' for another 18 years! And the last one to occur was in 1982.
So it was a pretty exceptional and privileged sighting.
Just thinking about it since....
Isn’t it amazing how we can be told years before as to when the next Supermoon eclipse will occur, to the precise day and hour? And where it will be visible – and for how long?
How is this possible?
It comes down to this indisputable fact...
These laws are logical, precise, indestructible and unchanging.
They are mathematical. And measurable.
And often profoundly simple (Einstein’s discovery of E=mc2 being a striking example).
And yet scientists will tell you there is no rational reason why these laws exist – they just do! And they govern not just our Earth or Solar System, but the entire universe.
It is beyond comprehension that, in the face of the above, some still do not believe in a Creator God, preferring to believe in some irrational ‘order out of chaos’ mumbo-jumbo theory...
...while before their very eyes they have this evidence of a magnificent, harmonious, law-abiding creation - a constant witness to them of His ‘eternal power and divinity – rendering them inexcusable’.
The fact is that modern science’s greatest advancements came from men who were convinced that God created an ordered universe that could be mathematically measured, leading them to discover the hidden, precise and valuable laws that were part of the divine plan for creation.
And we rely on these laws every day – consciously or unconsciously, whether for navigation, chemistry, agriculture, aeronautics, architecture, communication, surgery or music.
The discovery of these laws has enabled man to communicate internationally, to generate power and light, to build bridges and skyscrapers, to put massive ships on oceans and planes and helicopters in skies...
...even to put a man on the Moon and send a spaceship to Mars.
These unwavering laws have also enabled man to forecast sunrises and sunsets, tides, lunar and solar eclipses, and retuning comets with uncanny accuracy – years in advance.
And we believe and rely on these forecasts.
And that is that Man, as part of this magnificent creation, is also governed by Laws of Nature.
Human activity often seems random and irrational, but when we look at it more closely, there are patterns that repeat themselves. There are unconscious laws (of Human Nature) that tend to govern what we do and when we do them.
Ralph Nelson Elliott was convicted of this and set about in the 1930s to analyse patterns of human activity (seen most clearly then in stock markets) in order to unearth the hidden laws that govern these activities. And his resultant discovery of these laws, known as the Elliott Wave Principle, is as profound as some of the other discoveries of the laws of Nature.
As he said in his book published in 1946, Nature’s Law, the Secret of the Universe,
“...because man is subject to rhythmical procedures, calculations having to do with his activities can be projected far into the future with a justification and certainty heretofore unattainable.”
Skeptical?
Well, here’s some proof. Four years earlier, in 1942, he drew this illustration, forecasting a 70 year bull market for the Dow Jones, before the next major stock market crash!

There is no other market forecasting methods that could give you this kind of outlook - decades in advance.
And using this same methodology, it has given Dynamic Outcomes the ability to publish some pretty impressive forecasts ourselves over the past 10 years.
And this is one of them, which is opportune to showcase.

The above is the long term forecast I published back in April 2012, predicting a rise above R14 over the next few years (a forecast that even Clem Sunter found very difficult to believe some time back).
But, as you know, this was validated this month (on 7 September 2015).
and why I use to provide forecasts for the Rand and other financial markets.
Because it works with more reliability than anything else I know of.
It is based on laws and and guidelines – in principle, some simple rules (although it can get complex at times when two possible patterns).
Acknowledged, it is not an exact science, but what it does do is provide a framework - a perspective - of how the market is expected to unfold.
And it is this which has, over the past 10 years, given us and our clients an objective view of where the market is expected to head in time and price, with levels of support, resistance and invalidation
...instead of irrational, emotion-driven ones (which almost always we regret having made).
If you have Rand exposures, the volatility at present can play havoc with your decision-making if you do not have an objective view.
If this is how you are feeling – here’s what I would like to offer you.

Logically, the laws which govern non-living and unconscious matter will be a lot more reliable than those governing living and conscious man - non-living matter has no independent and free will whilst man has this attribute. This is why man's emotional tendencies are less easy to discern - and why EWT results should have less certainty than the results of the law of gravity. But knowledge of probabilities would certainly be a lot better than no knowledge at all! And if EWT provides this, then it will be extremely useful. The higher the qty of buy/sell decisions being made, the more likely it will be to discern the probability of the net of those decisions.
It is also clear that things aren't as simple as they appear to be, even in creation - e.g. light may appear to travel in straight lines but it is certain that individual photons do not do so; just that the probability is that, the closer to the straight line you get, the more probable it is that you'll find a photon travelling there.
Thanks, Dave - some valid comments and insights. To realize that there is some pattern to mankind's activities is a revelation, but it is by no means an exact science, for the reasons you mention. But what EWT does give us (like nothing else) is a framework and a perspective of market activity that allows us to make informed and educated decisions, based on probabilities. And, quite correct, the more liquid and traded a market is - the more clear will be the patterns of sentiment reflected in the market movements.
Appreciatively,
James
