Cycle Model Charts for AMEX Oil Index (XOI.X) Experimental Long and Short Term Predictions
















I have not had time to perform formal backtesting of this cycle model. Also, since the time series data goes back to 1983, possible longer cycles cannot be determined.

How much data do you use for your analysis?

Comparing GOLD and Silver, I see a divergence, isn't that strange?

Could you do a USD analysis?

Thank you!

As much as there is if it's clean. For the DJIA, it's daily back to 1896.

Yeah, I know. I don't have any ready theory as to what is happening. It might be that one of the models is wrong, or silver really does something weird.

>Could you do a USD analysis?

Could you give me more time, more electricity and more CPU's? :) Seriously, right now I have no additional resources to devote to a new model.
