Venus Latitude
George Bayer was a German immigrant who arrived in New York around 1900. He arrived well versed in astrology. Soon enough he had found a broker in New York whom he would use to enter trades on Chicago Wheat futures. In the late 1930s, he took the time to document the various rules and techniques he had used over the years to earn a living trading Wheat. In the early 1940s, Bayer “retired” and was seldom heard from again. Whether he knew W.D. Gann, he never did say in any of his writings.
The following is an excerpt from the Feb 25 issue of the Astrology Letter….
Venus latitude
The planets orbit the Sun following a plane of motion called the ecliptic plane. To an observer positioned on the Sun (heliocentric astrology system), the planets will be seen to wander slightly above and below the ecliptic plane. Bayer noticed a correlation between price on stocks and commodities and the time when Venus was at maximum latitude, minimum latitude, or zero latitude.
This chart illustrates Gold prices with Venus latitude displayed in the lower pane on the chart. I have used the drawing tool on my Optuma software to overlay the times when latitude is zero. Do you see trend changes? Using your eye, take a look at the mid-way point of the red arcs. Ask yourself – does the trend change at these mid-points? Early April should give a trend change on Gold futures price.
And….so what happened? you ask…
Well….the trend on Gold went from being generally sideways to being seriously bullish. And this happened in early April just as Venus latitude reached a low point.
Thank You ! George Bayer – whoever you were…..
