1. Understanding Mercury Retrograde 

What's Mercury Retrograde? 

Mercury Retrograde happens when Mercury appears to move backward in the sky. This occurs three to four times a year and lasts about three weeks.

People often link it to confusion, delays, and disruptions.

But how does it impact markets? 

Impact on Markets: 

Studies suggest Mercury Retrograde can cause market volatility.

Yet, the effect isn’t consistent.

Sometimes, markets rise; other times, they fall or move sideways. This makes it tricky to rely on Mercury's Retrograde for predictions.

2. Common challenges for traders 

50-50 Results: 

A significant issue is the sheer unpredictability. Post-Mercury Retrograde, the market’s direction is often a coin toss.

Misconceptions:

Most traders assume Mercury Retrograde causes uniform market reactions. This static view and the cosmos are a lot more complex. The astrological system works very dynamically, and the market does not have a static response to the same astrological configuration in the sky. In other words, the market sometimes gives you the same bullish or bearish signal every time Mercury retrogrades, but only some of the time.

One key misconception is the belief that Mercury retrogrades or similar astrological events, such as the new moon or Jupiter retrograde, act as isolated "ignitions" causing significant market movements. In reality, these events rarely move the market independently.

Profitability Concerns: 

Attempts to hedge bets with a mix of long calls and puts often fall short, and high premiums eat into profits.

3. Introducing the Mercury Retrograde framework approach

Static vs Dynamic:

You are trying to find a simple rule: the market will rise or plummet whenever Mercury retrogrades or enters a specific range of longitude coordinates.  It is too static. Instead, think of Mercury Retrograde as a cycle, not a trigger. This dynamic approach can help you see Mercury Retrograde with a New Lens and crack the code.

Adopting a dynamic framework is crucial to improving research on Mercury’s role as a trend reversal indicator.

4. Real-life examples and charts: Nikkei, August 4-27, 2024

Step 1: Mark the Retrograde Period on Your Chart

Step 2: Add Layers to Your Strategy

To get the most out of the Mercury Retrograde framework, you can always combine it with WD Gann’s Mathematical Indicators:

- Repeat Energy Indicator: Place buy orders when you see a repeating energy pattern forming.

- Dark Energy: The Repeat Energy pattern can also help calculate Dark Energy, where the price won’t touch the chart. This helps keep a tight stop-loss in place.

- VSE Indicator: The VSE is designed explicitly for sideways markets. If you missed the reversal on September 1, you could still re-enter at 38,442 using the VSE indicator.

Combining these tools gives you a clearer picture of market behavior and more profits.

Using the Mercury Retrograde framework is a unique way to predict market reversals. When viewed through the right lens, it can be used to spot other markets where Mercury Retrograde plays a role, such as Nvidia.

5. 2024 forecast: Nikkei and Nvidia trends to watch in 2024

Keep an eye on the upcoming Mercury Retrograde from November 25 to December 15, 2024. Once you get a handle on the Mercury Retrograde Framework, you’ll know exactly what to do in the next retrograde.

Here's a hint: the energy of the Mercury Retrograde Framework driving price action works like a team rowing a boat.

Don’t rely on astrology software to give you the percentage accuracy for Mercury Retrograde based on backtesting to reverse next time. It’s about reading what is happening in the market at the moment. That’s what I mean by trading with a new lens.

6. Conclusion: Trade with a new lens

Always be open to learning. When you start seeing the market through a new lens, you can screen the markets affected by Mercury Retrograde and turn them into profitable indicators.

Stay proactive, keep growing, and happy trading!
