Why Might The Markets Be Perfectly Patterned?

The charts and explanatory text on this website provide definitive, irrefutable evidence that market timing is often perfect to the day for periods covering many decades! This statement is equally correct when market time is measured in increments of one hour or as small as 15 minutes, and timing is accurate to a single hour or 15 minute period. These are very strong assertions, or to put it in the vernacular, this is pretty "scary stuff", but also very exciting! Nevertheless, as will be demonstrated, the math, the facts, cannot be ignored!

The big "WHY?" do markets conform to such orderly progression can be answered from a philosophical perspective. If you have read the article on Log Spirals, on this site or in the February issue of Stocks & Commodities, you are already aware of Ermanometry's concept that the markets belong to the natural realm and therefore order is "natural" for them. However, markets are created by humankind, and there is no evidence of any conscious plot by market movers and shakers to create perfect markets. Perhaps the urge to create order is subconscious.

Consider the spider spinning the geometrically perfect web. As far as we know, the spider has no conscious knowledge of the wondrous feat he performs. The eminent psychiatrist Carl Jung postulated that a mass collective unconscious unites all human beings.

Perhaps humankind, like the spider, is unknowingly creating geometrically perfect markets.

There is a wonderful poem by Theodore Melnechuk that sets forth the idea of humankind being manipulated by forces totally foreign to its collective conscious mind. The poem is about puppets speaking to their puppet masters and the audience, telling them that although they might consider themselves far superior to mere puppets, "transcendental gods", they too are puppets and manipulated by "some higher god's inserted arm".

PUNCH AND JUDY TO THEIR AUDIENCE

by Theodore Melnechuk, reproduced here with his gracious permission

Our puppets strings are hard to see,

So we perceive ourselves as free,

Convinced that no mere objects could

Behave in terms of bad and good.

To you, we mannequins seem less

than live, because our consciousness

is that of dummies, made to sit

on laps of gods and mouth their wit;

Are you, our transcendental gods,

likewise dangled from your rods,

and need, to show spontaneous charm,

some higher god's inserted arm?

We seem to form a nested set,

With each the next one's marionette,

Who, if you asked him, would insist,

that he's the last ventriloquist.

Could natural law, and humankind's collective unconscious be the "last ventriloquists" upon whose laps the markets sit? Think about it.
