The key is the location of the Moon not so much the phase. Do this, is the moon above the equator or below, is it close to the Earth or far away? Google "apogee calculator" for distance. Download this program for location.

Select view from Earth, moon and a location of the moon window pos up. The four day Delta cycle is triggered by the crossing of the Moon at the equator. As the Moon is above the equator and close to earth cycles force prices lower and as the moon drops below the Equator and is moving away from the earth cycles force prices higher. Last night the moon dropped below the equator and is moving away from the Earth. Today "should" hahaha be the last day of positive cycle forces as today is a day 1 inversion day. By Monday cycle forces are negative however we must allow 4 days of continued up pressure after the moon crosses the equator so it could be Tuesday before the market drops into next Fridays 1520s low. Work hard at it, this is the key.

dave:
i have a whole notebook full of major full-moon/new-moon turns going all the way back to the tulip top. i am not going to post all of my research here and now, but i will tell you this:
anytime you hit a major chart point at a new moon or full moon, and other indicators permit, there is a decent risk/reward trade using proper (but not too close) stops.
that occurred at this recent new moon. i entered half at friday's close and half monday. in this case, also consider the major turning points that have occurred in july. now, this decline MUST keep going for me to stay in. i can put in a small-profit-protective stop, now, on my major trading position.
regards and good luck to you and all!
p.s. longline swordfish fisherman have a VERY interesting view of the 1/4 moons on each side of the new moon, depending on the time of year.

I am a bit confused. I have downloaded a moon phase program "QuickPhase Pro" I don't see any refernce to above or below equator or 4 day cycle. Can you elaborate?
