For readers not familiar with Bayer’s Rules, they were created in the 1930s by a trader called George Bayer.

Mr. Bayer was a German immigrant who landed in America around 1899. He came fully armed with a detailed knowledge of the connection between the planets and the financial markets.

He was somewhat vague in his explanation of some of his Rules.

In particular, Rule # 10-A says that from a significant daily chart high or low, determine when heliocentric Mars will have moved 1.625 Hours of Right Ascension. Note - there are 24 Hours of Right Ascension in the zodiac wheel.

His Rule # 11-A says that from a significant daily chart high or low, determine when heliocentric Venus will have moved 6.5 Hours of Right Ascension.

The fascinating feature of Rules 10-A and 11-A is that they work !

What they do not tell you is how much of a price reaction you will get at the projected point that the Rules show.

Here and now, a deadline looms. The administration in Washington has given the Iranian establishment until the evening of April 7 to fully open the Strait of Hormuz.

The above chart shows WTI Crude Oil price action. From the price point when the Oil market first reacted to the action against Iran, I have applied Bayer’s Rule 10-A and 11-A. Rule 10-A says to expect a price reaction of some sort on April 8. Rule 11-A says to expect a reaction point on May 2.

From the the price bar where Oil tested the $120 level on March 9, Rule 10-A says to watch for a price reaction point on April 17. Rule 11-A says to watch May 10.

The above chart has also been fitted with Jupiter quantum lines and the sub-divisions between lines. No0te that as of here and now, WTI Oil price is pressing up against the 1/2-way point between two Jupiter quanta.

Let’s take a look at what Bayer’s Rules are suggesting for the S&P 500 and several commodities.
