A few more notes on the astrological phaenomena underpinning bitcoin’s current price activity (week of July 12-18).
As mentioned previously, the current buy signal was precipitated by the full moon of July 12, which is referred to as a supermoon because it appears bigger and brighter than the average full moon.
What makes these moons so spectacular?
A supermoon, also known as a "perigee moon," occurs when a moon turns full around the same time it reaches "perigee," the closest point to Earth along its elliptical orbit. (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/11/supermoon-july-2014-video_n_5578759.html)
Also, according to the Christian Science Monitor, this moon is also called a 'Full Buck Moon.’
The name dates back to when Native Americans kept track of seasons by giving names to recurring full moons. The name for July’s Full Buck Moon originates from the full moon rising and setting at the time of year when bucks – male deer – typically begin to grow their new antlers, starting with velvety bumps on their foreheads. (http://www.csmonitor.com/Science/)
Clearly the little bumps on the current BTC price chart correspond to the little bumps on the male deer’s forehead, observable in the bright moonlight, which are destined to blossom into full-grown antlers that will ultimately be used for display and weaponry in the ancient sexual selection competitions held every Autumn.
Over the summer months it is anticipated that that BTC price activity will follow the testosterone-induced growth of the deer’s antlers and present itself as formidable spikes on the price chart. The growth is anticipated to continue until the fall whereupon the deer and BTC will encounter hunting season and be subsequently slaughtered by surprise, with the only remnant of its past glory to be seen on historic price charts, hung like trophy antlers in the sportsman’s den.
Topic: KEEP OUT: Paper Trading BTC Using Undefined Astrological Signals (Read 1351 times)
Some readers may be familiar with similar experiments regarding monkeys trained to throw darts at the New York Times Market Page in order to pick stocks. Notably, these scientific experiments have repeatedly shown that monkeys with darts produce significantly better investment returns than 60% of mutual fund managers. The OP has neither the time nor money to train monkeys to throw darts. Therefore, undefined astrological phenomena will be used as a surrogate.

ok where can i buy my dart throwing monkey?
Check your porch
(P.S. This is a joke, i'm not a racist)
Ok i think this is probably the single most mind boggling thread I've seen in this forum ever. And that's saying something.
paging aminorex and their trained monkey....

A Full Moon occurs on Saturday, July 12th, 2014, at 7:25 AM EDT.
On Saturday morning, a Full Moon occurs with the Cancer Sun in opposition to the Moon in Capricorn. The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon. It is an emotional time—a time of romance, fertilization, and relationships.
Purchase of 0.922 BTC @ $635.00; Position: BTC= 0.922, Cash = 0.00

BTC prices are deterministic, that is to say, they are determined by something. It is unclear, however, at this point in time, what these (or those) particular determinant(s) are. The purpose of this thread is to investigate potential factors involved in determining the BTC market price. To maintain focus, the investigation will focus on one subject that is widely considered an important influence on price discovery in the bitcoin marketplace, namely, astrological phenomena.
An initial obstacle to the investigation is that the OP has no knowledge whatsoever of Astrology. Therefore, by way of disclosure, the investigation will NOT be conducted in accordance with generally accepted astrological principles (GAAP).
The analysis, rather, will be based upon a series of, as yet, undefined astrological "Buy" and "Sell" signals that will be developed by the OP as time permits. A log of all trades will be maintained and posted on this thread on a regular basis for discussion and/or ridicule so that the methodology performance can be documented for evaluation by the greater bitcoin community.

I just wanted to reserve this Subject Title before someone else took it.
Argh!
You beat me by 2 minutes!
I actually lol'd.
Whew! Sorry about that, but feel free to contribute anything you feel might be relevant. I just need to finish one more glass and then will jot a few notes.

No time to present my thesis for this thread right now, but I DO have one. I just wanted to reserve this Subject Title before someone else took it. More to come soon...
