==============================================================

The Bradley siderograph was developed in the 40ies by Donald Bradley to forecast the stock markets. Bradley assigned numerical values to certain planetary constellations for every day, and the sum is the siderograph. It was originally intended to predict the stock markets. The noted technical analyst William Eng singled out the Bradley as the only 'excellent' Timing Indicator in his book, "Technical Analysis of Stocks, Options, and Futures" (source: Astrikos).

It is crucial to understand what the siderograph is about since almost all traders (and even and even financial astrologers!) misunderstand it. Over the decades it has been observed that the siderograph can NOT (!!!) reliably predict the direction but only turning points in the financial markets (stocks, bonds, bonds, commodities) within a time window of +/- 4 calendar days (sometimes +/- 6 days). Inversions (i.e. a high instead of a low and vice versa) are quite common. Also, it is not a timing tool for short-term trends but rather for intermediate-term to longer-term trends because the turning window is rather wide.
-------------------------------------
The first chart shows the siderograph based on the original formula as applied by Bradley himself ("geocentric" means earth-centered, i.e. from our perspective)
important turning points 2004 (highs or lows): 4/26, 9/12, 9/28.

other turning points: 2/26, 3/6, 5/17, 7/30, 8/11, 12/3, 12/18
-------------------------------------
The 360° siderograph distinguishes between applying and separating astrological aspects, i.e. between 120°/ 240° and 90°/ 270°.

important turning points 2004 (highs or lows): 4/26, 7/30, 9/28

other turning points: 2/26, 3/6, 5/17, 6/17, 6/24, 8/14, 9/13, 9/28, 12/1, 12/10
-------------------------------------
The second chart depicts the siderograph from a heliocentric perspective (calculations based on the position of the sun instead of the earth).
important turning points 2004 (highs or lows): 5/9, 8/20, 8/20

other turning points: 2/28, 3/21, 4/16, 6/17, 7/14, 10/2, 10/11, 11/24, 12/8, 12/15

-------------------------------------

Perhaps you want to know now which one is the "correct" siderograph - the answer is easy: none. Since Bradley's time dozens of similar models with different paramaters have been created, partly optimized with the aid of artificial intelligence and for specific markets (oil, currencies etc.). A date which occurs in several different models is probably important.

additional updates

The older Bradley charts can be found here. How to receive the raw data: as a subscriber of Amanita Market Forecasting you get the raw data of all four Bradley models from 1990-2010 as a .txt-file (you need your access code, click here to subscribe).

[Bradley geo] [Bradley helio] [Bradley geo 360°] [Bradley helio 360°]

Another possibility: you calculate the data yourself with the aid of a financial astrology software, please go to the software-page (I use the Market Trader von Alphee Lavoie).

In my opinion the only way to construct a successful astrological bullish/bearish model would be either to use the planetary longitudes and synodic cycles of the planets (as researched by Meridian and Matlock), or a transit concentration curve based on the 5-10 major natal charts (as suggested by Koen Van de Moortel). In any way, aspects and declinations, the components of the Bradley, are dynamic by nature and not a good input for a static up/down-model, at least on the mundane astrological level.
