Trust me, my disappointment in the direction of the conversation was reflected in my reply, not antagonism.

If your methodology didn't provide a result you were happy with maybe your methodology was at fault and not the dates you were testing.

You asked a simple question and I offered a simple generalisation which I though you would have been familiar with.

The intent was to consider degrees of trend.

- Why does a minor pivot have a less consistent effect on price than a major pivot?

- why does a lesser degree trend have a less consistent effect than a larger degree trend?

- why does a local fib have a less consistent effect than a major fib?

- why does an intraday rally on a green day have more overall effect on price than the same intraday rally on a 500 point down day on the DJIA?

- what happens when you get a cluster of SnR on a chart as opposed to one SnR level in isolation?

There is your why and I would suggest the planetary dates are no different. The minor dates are trumped by the larger degree dates and that is why some dates work and some don't. You first have to learn how to identify the varying degrees of trend within the longer and shorter time cycles and when they start/finish. From what I've seen Dave is doing this with his charts.

Volume merely provides confirmation that your cycles are correct and provides the impetus to push price. A bit like one of your lights at home. You need 240volts to push the current through the light bulb for the light to come on. The 240volts is always waiting at the light switch but nothing flows until the switch is flicked on.
