Big moves in USD likely

US DOLLAR

6/29 DX AO CL 94.470 8/03 DX AO CL 95.143

July Review – “Since April, the US Dollar Index has been in a strong uptrend. The chart shows that it may now be losing some upside momentum and that a correction or consolidation is coming soon.

Key Dates – 7/5, 7/9, 7/10, 7/11, 7/13 (Solar Eclipse), 7/30 (includes Lunar Eclipse).”

Results – 7/5 was not effective. 7/9 was the exact low of the month. 7/10 was close in price and one day past the 7/9 low. 7/11 was not effective. 7/13 was a short term high. 7/30 was a one day high.
Score = 4 out of 6 good dates = 66.67%.

August Update – The US Dollar Index has been trading in a narrow and narrowing trading range. Breaking out of this range could lead to a major move. One unusual thing I noticed about the US Dollar for August is a big drop in its Astro energy. I am not sure what this means. However, I have noticed that sometimes when this happens to a market there is a big move.

Key Dates – 8/9, 8/13, 8/14, 8/27, 8/28, 8/29, 8/30, 8/31 AC

T-BONDS

6/29 ZB U18 CL 145-00 8/03 ZB U18 CL 142-31

July Review – “Following a higher pullback low into mid June, T-Bonds resumed their uptrend contrary to the common market sentiment that interest rates are headed higher. As mentioned correctly last month, the T-Bonds seem to be following our T-Bond Fractal Forecast which indicates this rally could last into early August. Near term, T-Bonds are now approaching some major resistance levels and may need a pullback to recharge if they are going to break out to higher levels. If September T-Bonds can get past the 146 area, I see the potential for the rally to extend to 150 or higher. If the uptrend is to continue, T-Bonds must hold above the 142 area. The top 
Planetary Events for July for T-Bonds are: 7/10 PM – Jupiter in Scorpio turns Direct. Scorpio is the ruling sign for Bonds; 7/11 AM – Jupiter Contra-Parallel US Moon; 7/13 PM – Helio Jupiter in Scorpio Contra-Parallel Latitude Neptune; and 7/27 AC – Geo Jupiter in Scorpio Contra-Parallel Latitude Neptune. Key Dates – 7/5, 7/9, 7/10-11, 7/13-16, 7/30”

Results – 7/5 was close in price and one day ahead of the high of the month. 7/9 was very close in price and one day past the high of the month. 7/10 was a one day low. 7/11 was a short term high. 7/13 – 7/16 was an almost exact double top with 7/13 being one tick higher. 7/30 was a short term low. Score = 7 out of 7 good dates = 100%.

August Update – T-Bonds made it to the top of its recent trading channel in early July and then turned lower.

T-Bonds are now approaching the bottom of the higher of two possible trading channels. The top two events for T-Bonds this month are 8/17 AC – Jupiter in Scorpio 120 Neptune in Pisces. Scorpio is the ruling sign for Bonds.

8/31 AC – Helio Uranus enters Taurus. Taurus is 180 from Scorpio, the ruling sign for Bonds.
Key Dates – 8/13, 8/20, 8/27, 8/29, 8/31 AC
