This book provides an intricate example of how to apply pattern recognition to the daily prediction of tradeable financial assets like Euro/USD and Bitcoin/USD. I demonstrate how the only way to be able to predict the price movement on a daily basis is by strictly using variations in positions of the 1. Moon, 2. Sun, 3. Mercury. & 4. Lunar nodes....and setting those variations within different parameters that call for predictions of either a price rise or fall.

Using parameters that call for predictions of either up or down based on variations of the position of the sun, moon, mercury, and lunar nodes, one can find significant patterns that could lead to predicting accurately a tradeable financial asset on a daily basis for a long period of time....possibly leading to a holy grail algorithm or holy grail theory of daily trading via quantitative analysis.

The book also demonstrates how the Dow Jones Industrial Average follows a pattern based on the position of the Sun and Lunar nodes. The basic gist of the algorithm decrees that from the point when the degree of the sun is 3 degrees past(or higher than) the degree of the lunar node(in any sign) all the way until the degree of the sun enters a new sign at the 24th degree mark(using western astrology), a prediction of a market upswing should be applied. From the point when the degree of the sun enters a new sign at the 24th degree mark all the way until the degree of the sun goes 3 degrees past the degree of the lunar node(in any sign), the prediction of a market downswing should be applied.

The final volume contains the percentage ups and downs of the BTC(Bitcoin)/USD currency pair during times when the Sun and Mercury are in the same sign and also during times when the Sun and Mercury are in different signs. These statistics go back to 2012. My initial observation would conclude that there is a higher prevalence of a rise in BTC/USD when the Sun and Mercury are in different signs and a higher prevalence of a drop when the Sun and Mercury are in the same sign. Mercury retrograde periods, however, seem to reverse that pattern, making it to where the Sun and Mercury in different signs would drive the BTC/USD lower, while the Sun and Mercury in the same sign (during the retrograde) would bring it higher.
