CURRENCIES MAY RISE & FALL, GOLD STANDARDS COME AND GO,

BUT, THE MARKETS WILL CONTINUE .

Chaotic, volatile times have arrived in the markets again and right on cue.

Contrary to what most believe or feel emotionally, these chaotic and ‘difficult times’ are a normal part of the investment scene and those with the proper trading skills will prosper greatly.

Financial cycles are repetitive and build from ‘pullbacks’ in a bull market to full-blown crashes and, eventually panics.

These, in turn, lead to quieter, less volatile markets stripped of over-speculation and a slow build-up of prosperity over the long-run begins again.

And, so the cycle goes. Over and over again over the course of about 4 generations on the long-term.

It takes about that long for those with the age and experience of these many cycles to disappear from the scene along with their Wisdom.

This clears the way for a new group of  fresh, open-eyed, inexperienced and optimistic youth to try things out for themselves.  And, so the cycle of experience begins again.

Most have heard the legends of past market crises and learned to fear market crashes and panics.

However, these are not what many think them to be.

 Crashes and Panics are, historically, actually short-lived affairs if government doesn’t interfere in their normal progression and purpose (which they almost always do).

The smaller cycles come every 10 and 20 years or so (the 1974 Crash, 1987 Crash, 2008 Crash), while the larger cycles affecting the Economy in a larger way are longer cycles of 50 years and more (1930’s lows to 1980’s lows, etc.).

The purpose of crashes and panics is to weed out the weaker parts of an economy so that what’s strong enough to survive will be able to grow unimpeded going forward into the future.

This applies not only to businesses but also to speculators, traders and investors as well.

Faulty philosophies of the markets and trading gimmicks will fail during the most stressful times of the market which come naturally at the ends of the great cycles.

Some events are hard to protect oneself from.

WD Gann himself, although a great trader, still lost his trading accounts 3 times when brokerage companies went bankrupt and took his funds with them.

Undeterred, and with sound foundations of understanding the markets, he began again and succeeded each time.

The recent news about MF Global brings this to mind as we’re again in that time cycle when weaker institutions fail in order to make way for the stronger, successful ones.

The end of these greater cycles come when the faulty economic experiments of politicians and bankers and their results finally can’t be ignored any longer and the 99% which hold the total system together reach their limits of abuse and corruption within the system.

Change will happen again just as it has happened in the Past.

It’s a perfectly normal function that can be seen at work in Nature.

Any gardener knows this principle. It’s called ‘weeding’ and the purpose is the same; to keep the stronger, more valuable plants vital and help them grow stronger.
All gardens have their ‘pests’ as does capitalism and the markets, and, the steps that need to be taken to make things ‘healthy’ again are similar.

Some serious ‘weeding’ is in order.

If care is taken and nature-based approaches are applied, then, as the character Chancy Gardiner said in the movie ‘Being There’; ‘there will be growth in the Spring.’

I’ve attached a chart today Cotton prices that covers a very long period of market history from the late 1790’s to 1896 for your examination and meditation.

This extremely long period of market history (over 100 years) covers periods of

• changing currencies,
• going on and off the Gold Standard,
• panics,
• recessions,
• depressions,
• periods of massive business failures,
• real estate bubbles, booms and busts,
• droughts (like the Dustbowl of the 1930′s),
• storms,
• pestilence (1918 Worldwide Flu Epidemic and others)
• Civil War, World Wars, military adventures and interventions all over the World and the war on terror.

In short, virtually all these economic cycles have been experienced by traders and investors who have preceded us.

From all this History we may derive one constant Rule: The markets will continue.

Through all these conditions and the swings of Human emotion of optimism, exuberance, panic and despair and back to optimism again, the markets prevailed and will continue to prevail.

Yes, some may fade or even disappear, but, they will always be replaced by others with new potential and growth will continue.

Just as in our garden analogy, Life is about Growth and, wherever you have Life, you’ll find Growth potential.

So it is with People and the markets they make wherever they live and work.

The Markets and opportunity will continue. - George

FUNDAMENTAL REAL KNOWLEDGE OF HOW MARKETS WORK WILL BE YOUR BEST DEFENSIVE & OFFENSIVE WEAPON IN THE MARKETS

Knowing early, for instance, where the highest probability BUY & SELL price points are going to be for Stocks, Commodities or Currencies.

Markets will continue to function. Profits will continue to be made.

As I’ve stated before on this site, it’s just during such historic times in the markets that the new millionaires are made.

They will be the ones who understand the markets and their movements.

Margin requirements may rise & fall, but, the right techniques will work even for CASH markets or commodities like Gold, Silver, Wheat & Corn or any other commodities in demand by people or governments.

Knowledge is the best antidote to the stresses of fear and confusion that these times are brewing.

The Excalibur Method of tracking markets and price momentum is derived from a very deep level of understanding WD GANN’s work and decades of research.

The Excalibur Method finds the hidden, highest-probability rate-of-return angles, BUY & SELL price zones and momentum inflection price points for any markets.
