INTRODUCTION
T hank you for your purchase of the Galactic Trader™ Program, the only
true Planetary Harmonic software. We at The Galactic Trader/P.A.S., Inc. have
designed this manual as an educational tool to use with your program. Our
goal is to help you gain the greatest advantage from this program. The Galactic
Trader™ Program has planetary methods found no where else, as well the
standard planetary and technical indicators found in other trading software.
Developed by traders Jeanne Long and Thomas Long, authors of the Universal
Clock, Basic Astrotech, and the Trader’s Astrological Almanac, and Editors of
Long’s Market Detective. The Galactic Trader™ program stands alone in its
powerful and unique ability to isolate planetary harmonic levels in price and
can also be combined with Robert Krausz’s Fibonacci Trader™ software, the
only true Multiple Time Frame analysis platform, thus making a very powerful
trading tool.
Throughout this manual you will see the application of this approach.
You will see both your favorite indicators in a new light and proprietary
techniques exclusively available in the Galactic Trader™. As you read this
manual and use the Galactic Trader™ you too will see the advantages of
analyzing the market using Planetary Harmonics. We wish you super trading!

Trader/P.A.S., Inc. Without this document on file you will not have access to
support.
2. Set up the proper Time Zones by going to the Exchanges section on page 7.
(Also Time Zones for Latitude and Longitude.)
3. If you are using Real Time data you will need to set up your data feeder. This
procedure is covered in the Data Feeders section on page 100.

futures contracts have expiration months. Go to the Groups section on page 8.
5. For End of Day data go to the Contracts section on page 10.
6. A chart is called a Plan in the Galactic Trader. To set up a plan go to the Plan
section on page 16.
7. To add indicators to your plan go to the Indicator section on page 19.
8. See the next page for a key to the Galactic Trader functions.

TYPING VALUES b c
When typing in values, such as editing the low value in one specific bar, you must enter the
data in the same format specified when you first set up the Contract Parameters. Your contract
minimum parameter values can be decimals, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 or 1/32. Examples:
TICK SIZE ACTION AND EXAMPLE
Decimal For a price such as 4700.34, you type a period and two integers.
1/4 For example, 321-3 you type a dash (-) to show the fraction. In this case the price is 321 and
3/4. If you have a value such as 321-0 then you still need to type the -0.
1/8 Same as 1/4 contract except that the numerator ranges from 0 to 7.
1/16 For example, 110-05 you type a dash (-) and then the two fraction numbers. In this case the
price reads 110 and 5/32 but you must type -05. If you have 110 and 15/16 then enter 110-
15, or if the price is 110 even, then enter 110-00.
1/32 Same as 1/16 contracts except that the numerator ranges from 0 to 31.

G T INSTALLATION
HARDWARE SECURITY LOCK

Galactic Trader uses a hardware lock to ensure that only authorized users can run the program.
The software cannot be installed properly nor will the program run without the security lock in
place. The hardware lock is an electronic device and should be handled with care. Avoid touching
the ends of the lock. You can transport the lock between locations, such as home and office,
without fear of damaging it, but do remember that it is an electronic device.
Step 1 Exit your programs and switch off your computer.
Step 2 The security lock fits between your computer and printer (if you have one). If
you have a printer attached to the standard parallel printer port, disconnect it.
Step 3 Attach the hardware key lock directly to the empty parallel printer port on the
back of your computer. Only one end of the key lock will fit, so it cannot be
put on backwards. Notice that one end of the lock is marked computer.
Step 4 If you have a printer, (re)connect the printer cable to the now exposed end of
the hardware security lock. Make sure all connections are snug.
Step 5 If you have screws on the end of your printer cable that is attached to the
hardware key lock, tighten them and also tighten the hardware key lock’s own
screws in order to hold it firmly to the computer.
If you have more than one security lock, then “piggyback” them, putting the Galactic Trader™
lock first (nearest the computer). The program has run successfully with as many as four
locks attached. Nevertheless, if one of your programs requiring a security lock fails to run, try
switching the order of the locks.
With the lock now properly installed, proceed with the installation of the software.

G T INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE GALACTIC TRADER™ PROGRAM
The following steps will load the program and test files onto your
hard disk.
Step 1 Switch on the computer and start Microsoft®
Windows.
Step 2 Put the Galactic Trader CD in your CD Drive.
Step 3 Click on Start from the tool bar, click on run,
click on Browse and find the CD Drive. Select
Setup.exe, then click Open, and then click Run.
Step 4 Follow the instructions on the screen.
You Are Now Ready To Run The Program:

G T PLANETARY INDICATORS
AND TOOLS
The next set of indicators and tools demonstrate the true power of the Galactic Trader
program. In this manual we will describe the tools, how to apply them to charts, and edit them
to your own parameters. This is not necessarily a tutorial for the trading applications of these
indicators. We are initiating a new series of CD tutorials in the coming months which will be
designed to guide you through the basic uses of these tools, then on to intermediate and
advanced applications. First, however, it is of utmost importance that you gain a working
understanding of the design of each tool, and what the parameters of each tool means. In this
section we will focus on imparting that information.
SETUP
The first time you open the Galactic Trader program, you will see it building the
Ephemeris database. This is the database from which all of the planetary tools are calculated.
After the Ephemeris database has been created, there are a few things which you
must do to “personalize” the settings of the planetary tools. The most important is the setup
for the Live Planetary Time Clock.
Click on Planets in the Main Menu and choose Live Planetary Time Clock. You will see
the following window appear:

Click on Options in the Window’s Main Menu and choose Setup. You will see the
window below.
Within this window, you need to input the correct settings for your longitude, latitude,
and time zone. Some traders like to use the settings for the exchange they are trading, but if
you choose to use your own town, you can look up the correct settings for your location. In
the example, we have used the settings for St. Augustine, Florida. Note that locations west of
GMT are positive numbers, and locations east of GMT are negative. Make sure to check the
Daylight Savings box if Daylight Savings is in effect (i.e. from the 1st Sunday in April until the
last Sunday in October, unless you live in Arizona or another place where Daylight Savings is
not observed). This function is not automatic, so it must be manually enabled and disabled
when Daylight Savings time begins and ends.
Now we can begin to learn about the Planetary Tools.

PLANETARY LINES
Planetary Lines is an inclusive term which covers many tools. At this point you will
need to open a chart (plan) to explore these tools. Once you have a Plan on the screen, click
on Planets and choose Planetary Lines. You will see this window:
Within this window we have access to all of the Planetary tools which plot in line format
on your Plans. To add any of these tools to your Plan, just click on the tool you wish to add
and then click on ADD. The tool will then appear on the list in the top half of the window. Click
EXIT to go back to your Plan, and the tool will be added to the Plan. You can also double click
your left mouse button on any tool to add it to the top list.

You can edit the default parameters of any tool in this window and create new tools
with the settings of your choice. To create a new tool, click once on the tool you wish to edit
in the lower half of the window, then click on the EDIT button in the bottom of the window. This
will bring up the EDIT window for that tool. You can change any of the default parameters and
assign a new name to the tool in the box provided, then click SAVE AS NEW to save this new
tool on the list. If you wish to just change the default parameters for a tool, just click on SAVE
AS DEFAULT, and this will save the changes to that tool on the permanent list.

All Planetary Line and Aspect Tools can be temporarily edited for a particular Plan.
You can do this in one of two ways. The first is from the Tool List. To edit a tool from the Tool
List, click to highlight the tool you wish to edit in the top list of the window, and then click the
EDIT button in the middle of the window. You can change the parameters for that tool in the
Edit Window and then click Exit to return to the list. These changes will only affect the tool for
the Plan which you are currently viewing.

Within this window you can also Delete a tool from the current Plan by highlighting the
tool in the top list and clicking on the DELETE button in the middle of the window. If you click
DELETE ALL in the middle of the window, all tools will be deleted from the current Plan.

Once you have added a planetary tool to your Plan, you can Edit that tool directly from
the Plan if you wish. You will notice that as soon as you add tools to a Plan, the name of that
tool will appear on the top left corner of the Plan. You can right-click on the name of the tool
to access a drop-down window which allows you the following options: EDIT, DO NOT SHOW,
and DELETE. If you choose EDIT, you will access the Edit window for that tool, where you
can change the parameters of the tool and then click EXIT to return to the Plan. The changes
to the tool will now be reflected in that Plan. If you choose DO NOT SHOW, that tool will be
visually removed from the Plan. You can reapply it to the Plan by right-clicking on the name of
the tool, and choosing SHOW. If you choose DELETE, this tool will be completely removed
from this plan.

Now we can look at the individual Planetary Tools to better understand their applications.
Here we have a list of all of the Planetary Line Tools and all of the Planetary Aspect Tools.
Following will be a description of each tool and it’s intended applications. You may find new
applications for our tools which we never considered. The beauty of this program is that it
allows you the potential to follow your own research paths with relative ease.

24 PRICE LINES: The 24 Price Lines are a simple line format tool which project price levels
on your chart which are representative of a particular geometry. At the default setting, they
will project horizontal lines at multiples of 24. That could be 24¢, 24 points, 240 points, etc.
Our research has shown that price reacts at these levels, and also that planets moving across
these levels (multiples of 24°) create energetic points as well.

PLANETARY PRICE LINES
Planetary Price Lines
(Sun/Earth Price Line, Moon
Price Line, Mercury Price Line,
▲
Venus Price Line, etc.) are
Harmonic representations of the
position of a planet or planetary ▲
element in PRICE. This concept

of harmonic representation of
planetary positions in price is the
PRICE POSITIONS OF SUN-PLUTO ASPECTS
cornerstone of our trading
strategy and is not available in any other software. The important thing to remember is looking
at planetary positions in this manner is that the Universal Clock setting determines which
aspects you are viewing. For example, if you set a Sun Price Line to G (Geocentric), 30°
(Universal Clock setting), N (No Mirror), and use a Pluto Price Line with the same settings,
you will be viewing the price points created by the crossings of the two lines which are visual
representations of geocentric aspects between the Sun and Pluto at multiples of 30°. In this
way, you can find the most powerful points in price which related to any planetary pairing. For
example, on October 8, 1998 we saw a MAJOR reversal of trend in the stock market. On that
day there was a conjunction between Mars and the Moon’s North Node. To see this conjunction
in price, all we need to do is set the Mars Price Line and North T. Node Price Lines on any
chart, with a degree value (Universal Clock setting) of 360 (360 is the same as 0 on the
wheel). Note: DO NOT EVER USE A VALUE ON 0 (ZERO) OF THE UNIVERSAL CLOCK
SETTING. Using a 360 setting, you would be looking at the conjunction points between Mars
and the North T. Node in PRICE. You would also want to view the same two Price Lines with
the setting of Y for the Mirror, especially if you are analyzing a market in downtrend. The
Mirror concept is a proprietary tool of the Galactic Trader and is simply the position of the
planet inverted across 0 degrees. It may sound strange, but it works, especially for markets
in downtrend. Let’s look at a chart for the S&P future market on October 8, 1998, with the
Mars and North T. Node Price Lines set to G, 360, Y, -1 (we use a -1 factor to keep the
calculation at 1 degree = 1 point).

▲
PRICE POSITION OF MARS-NORTH NODE CONJUNCTION
Within a range of 360 points, the Mars - North T. Node conjunction occurred at only
one price, 929.4. The low of the S&P futures on that day was 929. This is not a form-fitted
point. Suffice it to say that this can be a very powerful tool.
If you wanted to see the price levels representative of an opposition (180° aspect)
between two planets, you need only set the degree value (Universal Clock setting) to 180 for
those two planets. Likewise, a setting of 120 will pinpoint the powerful price levels when two
planets are in trine. A square can be found with 90 degree settings, and a quintile with 72
degree settings. It is that easy, and it works extremely well for finding reversal points.
You will note when looking at the Planetary Price Lines on your charts, that sometimes
one line is thicker than the others. This represents the 1st harmonic, or actual position of the
planet in price. These 1st harmonic lines are very powerful.
Regarding the factor setting, this setting is used to manually adjust the calculation for
degree to price point values. Sometimes the program will automatically adjust to the proper
setting, but sometimes you will notice that the lines appear to be moving “too fast”. In this
case, adjust the factor from 0 to -1. You will probably never need to use any other settings
besides 0 or -1. Here is an example. If you viewed a December 1998 S&P futures chart, with
a Sun Price Line set to G, 90, N, and a factor of 0, you will note that the line is moving “too
fast”. A sun Line should always define the trend of a market. Change the factor to -1 and note
the difference.

INCORRECT FACTOR SETTING CORRECT FACTOR SETTING
The proper factor setting is usually very easy to determine with just a few moments of
visual scanning. Remember, W.D. Gann always said that Time = Price, so it is logical to
assume that the market, in a trend, is likely to move an average of one price unit per day, just
as the Sun moves roughly one degree per day, so with the correct factor setting, price trends
should follow the trajectory of the Sun Line.
To familiarize yourself with the concept of viewing aspects in this way, practice by
looking at all of the planetary aspects which are occurring in the next week, and then set the
Price Lines on one of your Plans to find the critical price levels which those aspects are
creating. You can do this with Moon aspects on your intraday charts as well. We will go into
more detail on this concept with the upcoming CD tutorials.
PLANETARY DECLINATIONS
This Planetary Tool will plot the
declination of the planet as a sub-chart below
your plan. Sometimes you may find that the
rhythm of a market responds to the cycle of
declination of a particular planet, in which case
this can be used as an oscillator of sorts.

Declination is the angular distance of a heavenly body either north or south of the
celestial equator, and is measured in degrees - equivalent to the degrees of latitude on Earth.
i.e. up to 90° north or 90° south.
PLANETS AVERAGE
This tool will take the average longitude
of two or more planets and plot that average
in price. Like the Planetary Lines, the thicker
line represents the actual position of the
average, and the Universal Clock setting
controls the harmonic distance between the
lines on the Plan. If you use a setting of 360
for an average of two planets, you will
effectively be viewing the plot of the midpoint
between them. Using a value of 180, you will
see a plot of the midpoint and the point
opposite to the midpoint.
PLANETARY LONGITUDE LINES

This tool will plot the actual longitude
of a planet as a sub-chart on your plan, on a
scale from 0° to 360°. These can be useful
as long-term oscillators. If you overlay two
planets in one sub-chart, the crossover points
show you where the planets are in conjunction.

PLANETARY RIGHT ASCENTION LINES
This tool will plot the degree of Right
Ascention of a planetary element. Right
Ascention is the angular distance measured
along the celestial equator from the VERNAL
POINT in degrees from 0 to 360. This tool is
plotted in a sub-chart on your plan. Right
ascention and declination are the principle
celestial coordinates used in astronomy for
locating objects in the sky.
PLANETARY LATITUDE LINES

This tool plots as a sub-chart on your
plan the angular distance in degrees of a
planetary element above or below the plane
of the ecliptic. This tool can function well as
an oscillator, given proof of it’s validity through
a thorough backtest.

PLANETARY ASPECT TOOLS
This next list of tools are accessible through the heading Aspects under the Main Menu
heading of Planets. All of the tools in this section are graphically represented on a Plan as
colored price bars. For example, if you choose to show an Angle Between Planets tool, with
the Angle setting of 30 degrees, the planets chosen as Sun and Jupiter, on a Geocentric
setting, and a Y (yes) for multiples. You will see (on a Daily Plan) the price bars appear in the
color of your choice on the days that these particular aspects occur. In other words, the days
on which any Sun-Jupiter aspect which is a multiple of 30 degrees will be highlighted. (This
will include 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150°, 180°, and 360° aspects.)
Likewise, if you choose to display Lunar Eclipse dates, those price bars will be colored
which correspond to the day the eclipse occurs. If a chosen aspect occurs over the weekend,
the program will highlight either Friday’s price bar or Monday’s price bar, depending upon
whether the aspect occurred on Saturday (moves to Friday), or Sunday (moves to Monday).
The program will also show you the location of the next aspect in the series projected
to the right side of the last available price bar. This future aspect date will be shown as the
same price range of the last occurrence. You can use your “crosshair” tool to locate the date
of the next aspect in time.
Future aspect date is

shown as repetition of
previous aspect’s price
range

If you are viewing aspects on an Intraday chart, the program will color the corresponding
price bar closest to the minute that the aspect occurs.
Following is a list of all of the Aspect Tools available in this section. We have designed
the list to allow you to research just about any planetary event on your price charts.
ANGLE BETWEEN PLANETS

The angular relationship between two planets is known as an aspect. Aspects are the
separation or distance between two planets calculated in degrees. Aspects are based on
divisions of a circle (360°). For example, dividing a circle in half results in an aspect of 180°
(360 ÷ 2). Two planets at 180° apart are known to be in an opposition aspect or relationship.
The division of a circle by 3 results in 120° known as the trine aspect. The traditional aspects
that have been used since ancient times are as follows:
Separation Name Circle ÷ by
0° Conjunction 0
60° Sextile 6
90° Square 4
120° Trine 3
180° Opposition 2
However, where the markets are concerned, several other aspects are also important:
45° Semi-square 8
72° Quintile 5
135° Sesquiquadrate ?
150° Quincunx ?
CHANGING SIGNS
There are 12 signs of the zodiac containing 30° each in the 360° circle. As the planets
travel (transit) through the 360°, they pass from one sign to the next. Planets changing signs
is also known as planetary ingresses. The date a planet changes signs can be the timing of
a high, low or reversal of price in many markets.

PLANETS ALL SIGNS
This option enables research of a planet in any degree (1° through 30°) of a sign. For
example the default is set for 15°, because this degree is particularly sensitive for reversals in
many markets.
CROSSING LINE
Varying points of the 360° circle are sensitive as support and resistance areas when
correlated to price. These points are displayed on the chart as a horizontal line. A default of
24 is illustrated as these lines offer great support or resistance for many markets. Also try 15,
30, 45, or be creative and research others.
NEW MOON
A New Moon occurs on average every 29 days 12 hours 44 minutes, then the Moon
makes a conjunction with the Sun. A New Moon is also called a lunation and represents the
beginning of a new monthly cycle.
FULL MOON
The Full Moon occurs at the mid-cycle of two New Moons, when the Moon makes an
opposition to the Sun. Many markets respond to the New and Full Moon cycles.
LUNAR ECLIPSE
A Lunar Eclipse occurs only at a Full Moon, but not at every Full Moon, only when the
Earth passes directly between the Moon and the Sun and casts its shadow on the surface of
the Moon. An eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are in opposition (Full Moon) and close
to the Moon’s Nodes. If the Moon is particularly close to the Earth it will be a TOTAL ECLIPSE.
If the distance of the Moon and Earth is greater, the eclipse may only be PENUMBRAL,
meaning that the Moon is passing through the penumbra, or half shadow of the Earth. If the
Moon has sufficient latitude, the eclipse will be PARTIAL, meaning only a portion of its surface
is blocked or occulted by the Earth. Throughout history, eclipses have been regarded as
triggers of major world events.

SOLAR ECLIPSE
A Solar Eclipse occurs at a New Moon (Sun/Moon conjunction), but only when the
Sun, Moon and Earth are involved, and when the Moon stands between the Sun and Earth
blocking the light of the Sun and casting a shadow on the Earth. Solar Eclipses occur when
the Sun/Moon conjunction is near one of the Nodes at which point the orbit of the Earth and
Moon intersect. If at the time of an eclipse the Moon is particularly close to the Earth (near its
perigee) then it is called a TOTAL eclipse. If the distance between the Moon and the Earth is
greater, the eclipse may be ANNULAR, when the Moon only blocks the central portion of the
Sun. If the Moon has sufficient latitude a PARTIAL eclipse may occur, meaning only part of
the Sun is blocked by the Moon.
Two long term eclipse cycles that have influence on some stocks and commodities are
the Saros cycles and the Metonic cycle.
The Saros cycle, discovered by ancient Chaldean astrologer-priests, is a period of
6,585 days or 18 years, plus 10 to 12 days, depending upon leap years. This cycle is when
the Sun, Moon and Node return to almost the same relative positions that the eclipse of the
following cycle occurs in approximately the same order, for the same length of time and so
forth. It was this cycle that enabled the astrologer-priests to predict the next eclipse with great
precision.
The Metonic cycle has no relationship to the Saros cycle. It has 19 year intervals
where an eclipse repeats in approximately the same degree of the zodiac and on the same
date 19 years later.
GOING RETROGRADE / GOING DIRECT

Retrograde (from the Latin term, to step backwards) is the apparent backward motion
of a planet along the zodiac belt when viewed from Earth. Mercury appears to be moving
backwards or retrograding for approximately 3 weeks, 3 to 4 times per year. Venus stays
retrograde for about 6 weeks, every 18 months. Mars appears to be in retrograde motion for
approximately 12 weeks every 2 years. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are in
retrograde motion 4 to 5 months out of every year.
The date a planet goes retrograde (Ã) and also the date a planet resumes forward
motion again (or goes DIRECT) are displayed on the screen as a highlighted bar with a
backwards arrow ← for one retrograde start date and a highlighted bar with a forward arrow
→ for direct date.

PLANETS IN ARIES (TO PISCES)
This option enables viewing of market action (price bars) while a planet is travelling
through the entire sign. The screen display shows highlighted bars for the whole period of
time a chosen planet (or planets) is in a chosen sign.
PLANETS IN CONJUNCTION
This option enables a quick look at conjunctions of planets. The same results can be
achieved by using the 1st option under the aspect menu (000 Angle Between Planets), but if
the research only related to conjunctions then this quick method saves time.
PLANETS TOGETHER ON WHEEL

See information under Universal Clock. This will show when the planets chosen are at
a multiple of 24° distance from one another.
ASPECTS TO A FIXED ANGLE

Through this facility you can take the natal positions (positions of the planets at the
time of the Incorporation or 1st Trade of a stock or commodity), positions of FIXED STARS,
ECLIPSES, Sensitive points or any other point, and insert them into the program to be used
to aspect the Transit Planets to this point. For example: if the natal Sun in a stock chart is at
20° of Capricorn, this position can be used to aspect to the transiting planets in order to
establish the very personal cycles related to this stock alone. In order to insert the Sun at 20°
Capricorn, it must be changed into its equivalent number on the 360° circle.
0° to 30° Aries = 0° to 30° 0° to 30° Libra = 180° to 210°
0° to 30° Taurus = 30° to 60° 0° to 30° Scorpio = 210° to 240°
0° to 30° Gemini = 60° to 90° 0° to 30° Sagittarius = 240° to 270°
0° to 30° Cancer = 90° to 120° 0° to 30° Capricorn = 270° to 300°
0° to 30° Leo = 120° to 150° 0° to 30° Aquarius = 300° to 330°
0° to 30° Virgo = 150° to 180° 0° to 30° Pisces = 330° to 360° / 0°
20° of Capricorn: Capricorn = 270° + 20° = 290°. 290° would be the number inserted into the
program, called the Fixed Angle degree, to use to aspect the transit planets to. Dates the
actual aspects occur will be shown as a highlighted bar on the screen.

PLANETS IN PARALLEL
This facility gives the dates as highlighted bars of when your choice of two planets are
at the same degree of declination. Parallels are powerful aspects for reversals of price in
many markets.
PLANETS IN CONTRAPARALLEL
This facility also gives highlighted bars on the dates the two planets of your choice are
at the same degree of declination, but one is North declination and the other is South declination.
Again these are powerful reversal dates for many markets.
NOTE: You can visually see the declinations of the planets under the PLANETARY
LINE Section where you would choose #12 through #22.
LATITUDE CONJUNCTIONS
This facility gives the dates as highlighted bars when the two planets of your choice are
at the same degree of latitude. These dates are often important market reversals.
LATITUDE ANGLE BETWEEN TWO PLANETS

This facility gives you the ability to put in an aspect value for the planet at Latitude.
#28, 29 & 30
Gives the dates of the planet of your choice at 0° Latitude, Maximum North Latitude or
Maximum South Latitude. These dates are also strong reversal dates in many markets.
APHELION
Maximum distance of each planet from the Sun. Shows important reversal points
(Highs/Lows) in many markets.
PERIHELION
Minimum distance of each planet from the Sun. Shows important reversal points (Highs/
Lows) in many markets.

wheel, the position of that element will be displayed in the lower right corner of the window.

Continuing on with the icons, the next icon appears as a cross between SUN and
EARTH. This icon will change the graphic ephemeris to view a plot of elongation. Elongation
is the distance (east or west) that a planet appears from the Sun. In other words, from our
view on Earth, the planets can be seen in a relationship to the position of the Sun, and this
angular relationship is expressed from -180 degrees to +180 degrees, with the Sun at 0°.
Click to view

The two icons on the left, which appear as a EARTH and SUN, respectively, control the
graphic ephemeris view. Click on the EARTH icon to view the Geocentric positions of the
planets. Click on the SUN to view the Heliocentric positions.
Click for Geocentric view
Click for Heliocentric view
The graphic ephemeris is an important tool for anyone who is interested in using
Planetary influences for trading or personal applications, because a familiarity with how aspects
“look” visually will clarify the geometric importance of these events. It is a good idea to use
the graphic ephemeris as a constant visual reference in this regard, so that you can stay “in
tune” with the system.

LIVE PLANETARY TIME CLOCK

T his concludes the list of indicators, both the Standard and the special. The next section
explains how to set up trading systems using these indicators. Time spent understanding the
use of these indicators will be well spent, and then you can work with them in designing
trading methods and testing to determine their particular applications in market analysis.

G T SYSTEMS
PLANETARY SYSTEMS
Using the Systems Window, you can create harmonic systems of planetary lines which
can be applied to your price charts to easily allow you to find the price equivalents of planetary
aspects. This is a simple concept which makes planetary analysis much easier. For example,
we could create a system using all of the planetary price lines with a 360 degree Universal
Clock value. This system, when applied to a price chart, would pinpoint the exact price levels
of conjunctions between any two planets.
To set up this system, open the Systems window by clicking on Systems in the Main
Menu. Once the Systems window is open, click your right mouse button while pointing any-
where within the space of the Systems window. You will then see the Systems menu. Click
on New to create a new System.
Right click to get

System
In the New System window, you can scroll down through the technical indicators to
access the list of planetary lines. For this system we need to add to the top list one of each of
the Planetary Lines, Sun through North T. Node, excluding the Moon (use the Moon only for
intraday).

Once you have added the lines to the top list you can click to highlight each line
individually and click EDIT to change the values for that line. We will set up this system to see
GEOCENTRIC CONJUNCTIONS between planets, so we will use the following settings for
each Planetary Price Line:
VALUE INPUT
Helio/Geo G (for Geocentric)
Universal Clock Division 360 (for Conjunction)
Mirror N
Factor O
Input Values

After you have edited each line you can type the name of the system, we call it
“Geocentric Conjunctions”, and click Save. This system name will now appear in the Systems
List. To apply this system to a chart, simply right-click on the system you wish to apply and
choose Use from the menu. Choose Clear to remove a system from your chart. You can also
Edit and Delete systems from the menu. You can create as many harmonic systems as you
like. For example, you might want to create 2nd, 3rd, and 4th harmonic systems, setting all
planetary lines to 180, 120, or 90 respectively. You can also create systems which combine
planetary lines and technical indicators.
Within the Systems section of the program, you can also create technical trading systems
which can be automated and backtested. An excellent tutorial for this process is the Systems
Section from the Fibonacci Trader manual, which we will include here. Galactic Trader users
do not have many of the technical tools included in the Fibonacci Trader, but the tools that are
available can be used in the same way. The other difference is that with the Fibonacci Trader
you are able to use indicators from multiple time frames within one system, whereas with the
Galactic Trader the indicators chosen will only apply to the time frame for which the chart has
been set up.
If you would like to include the Fibonacci Trader tools in your software package, just
contact us and we can easily upgrade your software to a combined package.

choose, from the standard
defaults.
These buttons add, edit or
delete indicators, and save
the system.
2) Select HiLo Activator Next, then

click on Add. Select HiLo Activator
Own, then click on Add.
3) Select the HiLo Activator Next.
4) Click on “Use as
trend indicator.
At this point the HiLo

Activator Next will be used as
the trend indicator. The
system will be trading daily
bars using the trend of the
weekly (Next) bars. Trades
will only be taken in the
direction of this indicator.

Next we will setup the HiLo Activator Own for our entry
TRADE TYPE
and exit signals. Each indicator has a default setting 1- Close past line
for it’s use as a trading signal (see table Trade Type). 2- Bar crossing line
3- Change of slope direction
There are nine different settings, with a specific setting
4- Stop and reverse
for the indicator. For example, the HiLo Activator uses 5- Overbought and Oversold
number 4-Stop and reverse. If we were using the moving 6- Slow average crossing
average indicator we would have three choices: Number 7- Change of trend
8- Crossing zero line
1- close past line, number 2-bar crossing line, and number 9- Step direction
3- change of slope direction. The HiLo Activator Own is
limited to stop and reverse, that is, the HiLo Activator is always in the market, reversing
positions when the indicator flips direction. However, because we are using the HiLo
Activator Next as a “Trend Indicator” the HiLo Activator Own will only initiate trades when
both indicators agree.
1) Select the HiLo Activator Own.

The Trade Type is limited to num-
ber 4- Stop and Reverse. Some in-
dicators have more choices, and the
selection can be made by pulling
down the menu.
Here, you can designate long posi-
tions only or short positions only. Do
not select anything for this system.
“The systems trade at” has three

choices for entry:
1 - Trade at bar’s close
2 - Trade at next bar’s open
3 - Trade at nearest ’indicator’s
value
(Note: This rule specifies the system’s
entry, not the indicator entry.)
2) Select “Trade at bar’s close”
At this point we have designated the HiLo Activator Own as our entry and exit indicator,
and the HiLo Activator Next as the Trend Indicator. We have also set the

trading signals to occur when the market trades past the HiLo Activator Own. For example, in
the chart below the HiLo Activator Next, which uses the weekly bars, is in an uptrend. Therefore,
the system will only go long when the market penetrates the HiLo Activator Own stop line by
two ticks (based on the indicators default values), as in point A. At point B, the market penetrates
the HiLo Activator Own stop line and the system only goes flat because the HiLo Activator
Next is still in an uptrend.
There are some

important points to note
when using indicators that
B
employ the Fibonacci
Trader’s exclusive multiple A
time frame techniques. For HiLo Activator Own
example, the HiLo Activator
Next is based on weekly bars,
therefore the indicator does A HiLo Activator Next
not flip direction until Friday’s

bar. Penetration, and even a
close below the HiLo Activator
Next line during the week, as
long as it is not Friday, will not change the direction of the trend.
Consequently, to employ the multiple time frame techniques and the unique
indicators available warrants time spent familiarizing yourself with the indicators. With
the Fibonacci Trader you can right click on the colored square up on the right hand
top of the chart and call up the scroll bar. Scroll backwards, then press the space bar
once to advance the chart one bar at a time. Time spent learning the characteristics
of the indicators will go a long ways towards developing trading systems. Let’s return
to the System Control window and look at Contra Trend Trading, Stops and Profit
Protection Techniques.

Contra trend trading is available as a rule if you want your system to take trades against
your trend indicator. For example, in this system the HiLo Activator Next indicates the
trend, and the HiLo Activator Own gives the signals. Normally, the system would issue
buy signals only if both the
HiLo Activator Next and Own
were long, and the system
would go flat if the two did
not agree. If you check
“Allow Contra Trend” the
system would go short if the
HiLo Activator Own indicated
a short position and the HiLo
Activator Next indicated an up
trend.
You can select the number
of contracts to trade with the
trend and the number to trade
against the trend. For example,

and the Contra Trend Contracts

contracts.

STOPS
Click on the Options button in the Systems Control Window and you access the Stop and Profit Protection
controls. Beginning with the control window below, there are four ways to set stops for your trading
system. First, your have the None condition, no stop is used. You would click here if you had set a stop

to see a set of different results with

your entry price. If your system

the price was 110-00 and you

your stop would be a 1 percent or Your stop loss point will be a

arrows to open the window.

The next stop loss option is the “Average range of” option. Here you have your choice of an
average range of the bars by selecting a lookback period and choosing a percentage of the
average range for the look back
period. For example, if you choose
5 periods then the program will
calculate the last five period bars’

T-bonds, and the average range was
28/32nds based on a five period
lookback for the T-bonds and you set
the stop to be 50%, then the program
will place the stop 14/32nds from the
entry point. In addition, you can set the
stop to be subtracted from the low or added to the high of the entry bar, depending if you are long or
short, and finally, the stop can be a trailing stop if you choose.
For the trailing stop, if you are long the stop will be subtracted from the highest low, and advance if
the low of each new bar is higher. If the next bar has a lower low the stop will stay at the same point. If
you are short, and choose trailing, the stop will be added to the high of the bar, and will drop each bar
that has a lower high, but will not advance if the next bar has a higher high.
The next option is to close all trades at the end of the day. Day traders, may want a
system that does not carry positions over night, so check this box and all trades based on an
intraday system will be exited at the close of the trading day. Otherwise the intraday system
will keep the position open overnight. Again, no slippage is considered for fills, but if the
opening price exceeds your stop loss level, then the opening price will be used. You also
have the option of having your stop loss point plotted as an arrow on the Plan.

PROFIT PROTECTION
Click on the Profit Protection tab. Here, you set parameters to take profits either by a set objective of ticks
or a percentage gain based on your entry price. You can also set also set the objective as a percentage
gain based on the average bar range of a lookback period. In addition, you can set the profit objective to
be based on a percentage
retracement from the peak or
trough of a trend. The first option
is “None.” This would be clicked
to remove any previous profit
protection instructions.
The next option is “By % of Check here to set the profit protection rules

exit price. The next option is “By

ticks for a profit objective.

For example, you may set up
your system to automatically
take profit 20 ticks from the
entry price. Another feature is
to calculate the average bar
range over a lookback period
as a profit objective. For
example, set the Average range
to 5 periods, and the percent to
100. The program will track the
5 bar range and add that to the
entry point if you are long, or
subtract from the entry point if
you are short. If the price hits
your objective the system will
go flat and wait for the next
entry signal. Finally, you have
the option of the Profit
Protection Arrow appearing on
the plan or not.
The Colors Tab provides

you with the choice of colors
for the arrows for Going Long,
Going Short, going Flat, Stop
Arrow and Profit Protection Arrow.
