Okay, I'm looking good, Billy Ray feeling good, Louis. I'm going to start out the show today. By the way, our guest today is my very good friend from Airsoftware, Alfie Lavoie, who has the best software for cycles that you can ever imagine. But anyway, he'll be on to tell us about what he's got and a few other stories. But I posted the chart of the NASDAQ today, folks, because I wanted you to see this. This was the early morning from last night. We had the break, we had the rally back, and you can see we had a beautiful 3-8-2. And actually, the NASDAQ went down and took out those lows by just a little bit. But boy, when it reversed that level, that's when it took off like a stripe of deer running through the woods. Let me tell you, it was on its way. And we had a move from 350 down in the 350 point move in the Dow Jones to the downside and then 400 points to the upside. And boys and girls recall that volatility. By the way, I will be doing a live five-day session, five-day five-hour session from 9 to 2 on May the 17th. And this is there, we're going to be there to make money. I'm going to be doing some teaching, but I'm going to be doing more of trading than I am teaching. I'm probably going to do more trades in one day than I usually do. But I'm going to do them on a short-term timing basis so you can see that these patterns work on any time frame. And that's what we're trying to see as we look at that. Now, I'm going to take a trip down memory lane, folks, today, because this is an anniversary date for me. One of my very, very dear friends, Bob Gilmillian, who owned Wilshire Coins in Santa Monica, California, passed away, I think it was six years ago today, and I have been, you know, I think about him all the time. It was really fun. When I first came to California, this is the reason I'm bringing this chart for soybean oil up, because this is how I got started doing so much of this stuff. I met Bob in 1972. He had bought the coin. He had bought the shop from Doug Epstein. It was right on the corner of Wilshire Boulevard and Santa Monica Boulevard in Santa Monica. You could see the ocean. It was a block away, beautiful little building there, and he had the ground floor there. He had a little place called Wilshire Coin, and I used to go in there from 1968 when I first moved to California, and I was in Westlake Village, and I would buy coins from Doug Epstein, mainly gold coins, American gold coins, you know, $5, $2.5, 10s. Anyway, I got to be friends with Bob. He was an absolute dead ringer for Pete Rose. I mean, he really was. I mean, people used to ask him all the time if it was him, and of course he got a lot of fun out of that. Well, one day, this was in 1975, about February at 75. I'm in there talking to Bob and in walks, a couple of fellows, and they wanted to buy some gold. And Bob said, yeah, we can do that. And I didn't recognize who they were, and neither did Bob. And then they introduced themselves as Roy Huggins and Stephen Cannell. And I said, hmm, I said, I know who you guys are. Those are the guys that did the Rockford Files, plus a whole bunch of other stuff. Anyway, we became friends with them, and they were part of that soybean oil trade that I did in 1975 through 76. And I became friends with them, and it was nice fellows. They really were. I didn't get to see much of them, but I got to talk to their attorneys on the phone, because they did everything through a business agent. And then they had a falling out. I don't know what it was about, but they didn't speak to each other up until the time when Roy Huggins passed away. But I don't know what happened, but anyway, they had a falling out. But it was really fun to be able to, every time I see, and they did Hunter. God, they did so many of these things that it was just amazing. And they had a writer for them, a fellow you probably never heard of, Dick Wolf. Did a thing called Law and Order. He was one of the writers for them. Years and years ago. Anyway, let's get back to the markets. The reason why I'm bringing this chart up here, you can see the price here. We hit last night, we had soybean oil up $3, which is a lot. That's $1,800. The limit's off on the July, of course. And it's been bouncing around for a buck and a half today. But you can see all the ABCD patterns in there. The reason why you put this thing up here is that if you'll look at this little little square that I've marked off right there, that was the ABCD target folks at 88, right around 84, 15. But you can see the market went quite a bit higher. It went all the way up to 85, 50. So that's a that's a difference of $600. Now, if you just sell it point D. Sure, you can put a stop in wherever you want. The easier thing to do is wait for that target to be hit. Then let it sell off a little bit and then sell the rally back. And that's pretty much what we happened today. We had a pretty good break about a dollar and a half, around $900. And it rallied back right to the 61% retracement. And then it had its break. So that's the way to handle it when you have an ABCD up there. Sometimes I will just sell at D and just forget it. And a lot of times I will, as long as I don't have a real wide gap, which today is a wide gap that would have prevented me from doing that. Or if there's a gap going into point D, you just can't do that. The history says that the statistics are such that you just don't want to stand in front of that freight train. I mean, it's just not worth it. That's on a five minute chart, a daily chart, whatever you want to look at. We had another one like this. We had a beautiful pattern in natural gas today at 721. It backed off $1,000 very, very quickly. And before you could shake a stick at the computer, it was trading $1,000 higher on its way to $2,000 higher. So when you get markets that are this wild, you've got to be able to be right on the money. And you've got to be able to put your stops in and move on to the next one. That's the main thing. Now, something we talked about yesterday, very significant happened. And that is that at that $1,4304 yesterday in the bonds, we hit exactly a 382 retracement on the daily. We had the same thing happen in the notes. That's why they're selling off today. They've already sold off a little more than $1,200 and it looks like they could be going lower. But we have to let the market tell us what's going on. But I wanted to share that story. There were so many great stories there. The reason how I became friends with Bob is that when I first started going there in 72, I had to go, not had to, but I used to deliver kugarens because I was able to drive to Cedar Sinai Medical Center, USC Medical Center, City of Hope. So I was all over Los Angeles. So if he had some kugarens to deliver and they were close to where I was going to be, I would deliver them. And one of those trips, I went to a fellow whose name was Parker. And it was West Parker's father. And I delivered the kugarens to him. And when I went into his office, I saw the pictures of his son. And by golly, he said, hey, come on over and you'll visit my son today. He'll be here to have lunch. I went over and had lunch with him. And we became friends. I got to go to Dodger Stadium and into the clubhouse and then as luck would have it, about two years later, a dude from Tarot, Indiana named Tommy John was drafted by the Dodgers from the White Sox. Hey, we'll be right back. 877-927-6648. You might think that if you want to be successful at trading in the stock market, you're going to need a crystal ball.

Okay, folks, I want to talk just a little bit about the Euro. As you can see here, this is a daily chart going back several months. You'll notice that we've had a really nice ABCD coming down in here, right around this 104 and change. That's a really big number, folks. If you remember, we've been talking about in the newsletter, one of the things that we've been saying is that we were going to see at least 103 in the U.S. Dollar Index. And I believe we hit it today. If not, we are very, very close. And the reason why we were bullish this, i.e. bearish the Euro, was the fact that now I'll get this up here so that you can take a quick look at it here. We'll look at the weekly dollar index and you'll be able to see it here one second with a little help from our technical advisors here at Duke & Duke, where it says, share the screen. Okay, I hit that and I hit this. You'll notice this is a weekly and you'll notice how we've been, as of last week, we were already trading above the 61% retracement. And that means that that extension was going to go higher and most likely go up to the old highs that we had way back here near 104. And we're very close to that right now. Now, should we break above that 104 level? Oh boy, that's going to be real interesting because that means a dollar is strengthening and that would surprise a whole lot of people because no one thinks a dollar should be strengthening during this time. But frankly, folks, it really doesn't make any difference. It's a matter of who's got the cleanest dirty shirt and that's the one that you want to pay attention to. Now, we've had another one here that we've been following and been short for a while. Actually, we had the 382 back here in March and we said to hang in there because we were going to get down to the 125 level. Just give me one second and I'll get the old British pound up there. We were talking about this when we were in London we're doing the seminar with Tom and David Paul, Steve Ward and Al Brooks and you'll notice here that we've just been drifting lower all along in here and now we're down to this level here, folks. We're right near that 125 level. I believe I haven't checked it yet today because of the beepers that I rely on have not hit it. But that's a really, really good one. We had a beautiful three drive pattern here. We had a really nice rally here. You can see we went right up to two numbers, lining them up perfectly right there. You can see the red lines drawn in and then you start the downtrend and the key here was right there. On that weekly chart, you go down and you make a 61% retracement. You rally up to exactly 382 and the market says goodbye and down she goes and that's the ones that we're paying really close attention to here today. Some people have asked me, not related to currencies, but why could the stock market be so strong today with the bad news that it had in Google and Microsoft and all the others and Tesla and stuff? Well, folks, it doesn't make any difference because when the market gets oversold, that means people come in looking for value and that's why you've got to be a technician. You can't rely on what these earnings reports are. Okay, now we're going to have a little test. Everybody that thinks that Elon Musk bought Tesla to get free speech back into the Constitution and stuff, raise their hand. Now, I'm going to cross my arms because I don't think that's why he did it, folks. Let me explain to you what I think he did and I get this from a little bird who's very, very smart. If you look at Apple with the price of just under $2 trillion, okay? He pays roughly $54 a share, $45 billion I think it was. He's going to pay $45 billion. He's buying Twitter for $45 billion. They have a lot of users, folks, a lot. So he's buying that for $44 billion and look at the price of Apple. It went a little under $1.7 trillion or something, whatever it is. Look at the value that he has here. Look at the access to all of these people on this platform now. After he gets the platform working in about six or seven months, don't be surprised if you come out and see some things that are really interesting like what's happening with Amazon, what's happening with Facebook and what's happening with PayPal and other things like that. It will be a really good format to do that because he's going to get everybody interested in it. He'll still have the free speech stuff working and I don't think that'll change much at all, but that's what is going to happen. He bought value there. Folks, the one thing you don't want to do is to fade Elon Musk. Anybody that's done that, since that guy was born, has paid the price. So I certainly not going to pay for it, but stop and think that maybe he bought that not because of the free speech but because of the fact that he has access to all of their information and stuff and that's what he loves the most, which is data. That's what I'm referring to this as we go through here today. Our guest today is Alfie Levois. I mentioned tomorrow. Our guest is none other than Tim Bost. I believe. Oh, dear. I turned the page already. Yep. Yep. Yep. That's not right either. Just give me a second. Yeah, I think it's Tim Bost. Let's try it again. It's Shane Smolian is the man in the driver's seat for tomorrow. And then, of course, we got May coming up. Are you kidding me? Shut the front door. No wonder I turned this darn thing. Oh, my gosh. Do you realize that we have on over here? It's not this Saturday. It's next Saturday. The seventh is the first Saturday in May, which is the Kentucky Derby. And I will have the winning horse for you like I do every year for the past 17 years here at TFNN. I think I had one place winner in the 17 years that I've been doing this for making my prediction for the Kentucky Derby. So what you want to do is whatever horse I pick, scratch that one and pick one of the other 15 or 20 that'll be running. And then you'll have a little bit better chance of doing it. So anyway, I have a lot of fun doing it. And more than occasionally, I will be able to get it. Now, Rich Anderson asked me to share this about technical analysis. One of his customers was kind enough to send this to us. So I want to show you what you're looking at here. And then this is a scam call. Shut the front door. Oh, wait. That's Alfie. He dialed the wrong number. Hold on just a minute for these girls. Hello? Yes. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, they're going to call. Have him call in on 877-927-6648. On his telephone. On his regular, on his telephone. Just forget this guy. Yeah. We'll do it all by telephone, Carol. All right. All right. We'll see you later. Yeah. Bye-bye. Okay. That's Mr. Lavoise. Lovely bride, Carol. And she will, as informed as he will call in. Anyway, I wanted to bring this up to show you this chart here. Shucks. Hold on just a minute. I hope it pops up here. It's a little cartoon on technical analysis and it reads here. He says, you should buy a stock whenever the chart looks like a squirrel betting on a clown, setting on his clown shoulder. And that's what we call technical analysis. That's actually heading shoulders pattern folks. Holy moly guacamole. We'll be right back with Alfie Lavoille of Air Software.

Hey, listen, I hope your memory is good because I want to tell the folks a little story. I posted into the room today my natal chart from 1941, and we were at the American Astrology Conference in August of 1988, and I had just written my book, Astro Cycles, The Trader's Viewpoint, and all the people there, there were 700 or 800 people. They had this chart up there. They took my name off of it. I didn't know it was me because I still don't understand these things, but Archie Crawford was there, and I had just met Alfie for the very first time, and he was in the process of building his software program at that point, and they showed this chart up here because people said it had just a lot of positive things going on, and what I wanted to do, I don't know what it means, Alfie, and I don't want you to tell me about that because this is known as a hororary chart. Isn't that correct? A natal chart? No, a natal chart is the one that you calculate exactly on the birth time. A hororary chart is that somebody calls you and he says, for instance, should I invest in this stock? Somebody told me that this stock is going to go up. I take the time that they ask the question. I draw a chart, find out what the planets are in this kind of relationship with the earth, and I give them an answer. I give them an answer, yes, you should invest in this stock or not, because in hororary, supposedly when somebody is up to getting an answer, I don't care what answers you want. I get a lot of, well, I found a lot of missing people. People call me with a 911, and I use that time, and I found a lot of missing kids and things like that. And I find, as a matter of fact, yesterday, I just found $870,000 for this person, a business client of mine. He went to the bank, he had to pay a business with cash, and he came home, he couldn't find the money. I told him exactly the money he calls me back in 10 minutes. He said, guess what, I found the money. Do you still do, you were a consultant for PepsiCo, for Pepsi and Taco Bell, aren't you, and where they should put their, or Taco Bell, where they put their stores and stuff, you still do that, don't you? Yeah, I still have, I have a lot of business clients that have offices all over the world. Wow. Alfie, you've got a sale going on, and I think it's the best, well, I don't have to think, I know it's the best software for astrology and for finding cycles and stuff, and how long, you've been doing this for over, building this for almost 30 years, isn't it, Archie? Because you were building when I first met you in 88. Yeah. Well, we have all kinds of software, and by the way, we just came up with two financial software that really works well. As a matter of fact, two minutes later, before you call, I had an email, this guy was, you know, we have thousands of them up there, but this guy wasn't a trader, but he was, you know, he was interested, and he finally bought the software, it's $499. And he says, Alfie, it comes with 37 videos. For a whole week, I watched the videos. I made a trade on Thursday, I sold it yesterday, I made $600 and some odd dollars, and I'm at $200 ahead of paying for the software, thank you. It has that many videos with it, Archie, Alfie? Yeah. Wow, that's an incredible teaching thing, yeah. And it explains step-by-step, so if you don't know, you know, a lot of people say, well, I don't know astrology. They really don't have to know, because it's all built into software, we have the models for, you know, and what it does is that it works on five different kind of astrology models that we researched since the 80s. And, you know, so you find out that three of them says, this stock is going to be down here on this day, and all of them shows in a week is going to be way out. Then you buy it there and sell it later. Okay, now I posted a chart that you sent me, I believe it's a natal chart of a stock, and the question was, would you buy this stock? Is this what you're looking at when you're getting ready to buy a stock? Well, no, this is what somebody called me and said to me, should I buy this stock, all right? Okay. So when you look at it, the thing on nine o'clock, that's the person calling, it describes him. Okay. Each house has a rule something, and stocks are ruled by the fifth house. So if you look at the fifth house, we have Capricorn there and Virgo rising. So we look at Mercury and Saturn. It doesn't make any aspect, all right? So that tells us no, all right? But then we have Pluto in the fifth house right there, the planet Pluto, and the planet Mercury rules the man that asked the question. It triumphs, all right? So it says, okay, it's not 100% proof, but it's about like 70% proof you should buy this stock. Okay. That makes sense. 70% is pretty good. Not many people can hit 70% on these. Tell the folks some more about the sale that you've got going, Alfie. Well, the sale we've got going is on books. All right? Okay. I wrote five books on this technique, how to do it, and stuff like that. So this is the sale. Okay. That's the books. And one of them, and I was looking at your chart, one of them is the Four Paths to God. And I got all of this into a dream. I've been looking for these techniques to help people understanding themselves. And when I put your chart on the screen here in the Four Path to God, you're an eight, all right? Which means you've got a lot of 45 degrees aspect in your chart. And so to be an eight in order to balance on earth, eight means that, you know, this is you as a person when you stand on there. But in order to get this out into the world, you're going to be a one. And that means you could, you know, I found I'm an eight too. I found that people that are an eight is always hiding behind something. Like to you, you're hiding behind the stock market. And then your personal life sometimes doesn't go anywhere because you're not enough. Here I am, folks, you know? So you have to be more of a person that pushes yourself and not push yourself behind. Well, you know, I have a radio show, I wrote books and stuff like that. You've got to go above that and put that behind you. And once you've got that, then you've got to balance and things starts to work for you. Oh, that makes good sense. Well, we'll see what happens. Listen, I want to thank you for joining. Tell the folks how they can reach you, Alfie. If they'd like to purchase some of your software or your books, where is the best way to reach you? Yeah, my software, if anybody's interested in a new stock software, this is, you know, 1980, I've done research. They can reach me at www, you know? Alfie, A-L-P-H-E-E dot com. A-L-P-H-E-E dot com. Okay. I have everything there. I have my email and everything. Okay. And of course, my email is alfiecomcast.com. Okay. Listen. Thank you for joining us today, buddy. We'll have you on again, okay? Okay, thank you a lot. Get my best to care of you. Alfie Levoix, folks, Alf, air software. We'll be right back, folks, 877-927-6648.

Okay, folks, I posted the chart of the forecast last night during Europe and the E-mini S&P and then also what we're looking at for today. You can see it's been all over the map, but if you'll notice the green line, those of you that are in the car, this is a way of determining where the market may or may not be at any specific time. It's usually right within about 20 minutes. Today it was off by a little bit more, but we had very interesting hit. You can see that big rally that happened in the middle of the night. Then we went down and made a new low just by a little bit and then, of course, we turned around. The key to watch this, though, from the U.S. standpoint comes in here in about 15 or 20 minutes because at that point, if that's the case, we might start down in 15 or 20 minutes. But believe me, folks, if 20 minutes after that top is in and you're still going higher, you better stand aside because this thing could really go. Just remember, it's not about how much money you make. It's about how much money you don't lose. As you can see here on this chart, where we're sitting at right now is the 78% level. Now, what I would like to see is I would like to see it stay right in this area here until this time because if I sell it here, then I know my risk is only going to be about $15.750 max. And when you're swinging $3,000 and $4,000 a day up and down, folks, $750 is not a lot. But that's neither here nor there of looking at this. So that's the main thing to keep in mind when we're watching some of these. I'll be teaching you folks how to do this yourself on the 17th of May as an easy, quick and dirty way to do this that I'll be talking to you about. I won't be using this in the trading. I'll probably be showing it. But frankly, folks, when I do trading, I'm going to be there to try to make money because I have a quota. My theoretical quota is what I look at for the day. And I'm going to be doing the patterns and teaching why I'm doing that pattern and doing that. I have three PowerPoint presentations that we quickly go through and there's a whole bunch of material that you'll get along with that. But it'll be actual live trading, exactly what I did when we were with Tom Hougard over in London. It's not going to be any different than that. That's what I do. And so I think it's $299 and we've had three of these. This will be the fourth one. We've made money on all of them. Two were good and one was spectacular. So the very first one we did was we didn't have any losers. We made a lot of money. The other two had a lot of questions answered, no excuses, but we still made way more than enough to cover the thing. But I'm going to be spending more time on the trading part this time because that's what people really want to do. So I'll be doing more trades. I'll be looking at different markets to find ABCD patterns, Gartley's, One Three Fives, whatever I can find to try to make a dollar and looking at five, four, 10, 15 minute charts, whatever it takes to find a good pattern, that's what I'm going to be doing. That'll be on May 17th. You'll be getting some information in it in the mail, but that's neither what we're watching here so far. Now, I wanted to, regarding the charts that Alfie put up, folks, those, you know, we've had some pretty smart people on this show, Shane Smolian, Tim Bost, and a few other people. Norm Winsky, of course, and several other astrologers that have come on that are very, very smart, very, very successful. They all do it in their own way. And that's pretty much what we do here when we're doing our trading. I really like to focus on 15 and 30 minute charts because they give me the confidence of where I have to put my stop because the charts, they're very predictive in nature, but God, they're not 100%. And that's the main thing. The perfect example was that soybean oil chart that I posted earlier. It looked perfect, but by golly, you know, if you sold it at D, you're sitting with a $900 loss. Of course, yeah, it came back in your favor, but, you know, some of these, they don't come back. They just keep running and running and running, and you can't stand in front of those. I mean, that's just, look at the swings that we're having in crude oil, folks. You know, we were trading at 95 and change on Monday, okay? On Tuesday, we had a nine from the low on Tuesday to where we were yesterday. We rallied 700 points, $7 a barrel, folks. That's seven grand. Then we back off to the last night. We back off, makes an ABCD at the 3-8-2 this morning at 99 and change. I mean, these are wild swings. This is what we like when you're trading pattern recognition because you're going to see, you know, volatility and these numbers work pretty good. Let's just get up here, because I wanted to bring this to your table. There, just so you can just see it right now. We'll just go through this because I think it's worth, oh, just a second. I'm going to post the crude oil right now. Sorry about that, Al. There's the crude oil. There's the bottom yesterday. You see the measurement came right in here at 95-90. The low was 95-32. And from 95-32, we rallied up to almost 103. That's just, it was a little more than seven handles. And then that's when we had the 1-3-5 pattern. Then what we do from 1-0-3, we drop $4 down to 99. And now we're back into the range now at around 1-0-2. 1-0-1-50 to 1-0-2 was what I heard just a little while ago. So these are just huge swings. And we're having huge swings in the S&P and in the NASDAQ and everything else, you know? But the whole world, I mean, when you turn on Bloomberg or anything else, all you're going to see about how bearish the NASDAQ is, for God's sake, be careful when you start hearing that stuff, because this thing is way oversold. And believe me, if it starts to rally, and if it starts to rally for any reason, we're looking at bad earnings in Google and Tesla, all the other stuff, just pay attention to those charts because we've seen this before. If you remember COVID, how bad it was. And then all of a sudden, by the bing, by the boom, the market turned on a dime and left a whole lot of people standing there waving at the train as it went by. So that's the key is to watch how the markets react to the news. Either good news or bad news. That's the main thing that you want to be paying very, very close attention to. Let me see where we are now in the old 786 train. The 786 at S&P is at 42.11. This will be about 10 minutes after the show is when the top should be in. Pay close attention to that if you possibly can, and that would be something that you might want to pay some attention to as you look at these charts here today. We got gold still moving lower down at 1883. We tried to get short up there at 1917. We missed it by four bucks and the train went by us and we waved as it went by, but it'll be stopping again soon and we'll be able to get on. We're waiting to buy it, folks. My dream here, and I hate to use the word hope, my dream is that we get this gold $100 lower for where it is right now. Right around 17, 1780, 1776. That's when I will walk up to the old gold broker and say, el conos dos manos. That means with both hands, give me the gold and I will be buying gold at that price because that'll be a giant ABCD on the daily. And those are the kind we really like to see. 877-927-6648.

Okay, we're back, folks. Tomorrow's guest will be Shane Smolian, the WolfTrader.com. Also has done some great things. He's got a new product coming out, folks. I believe I better not say anything about it. Let him tell you about it, but if it's right, it's going to be rubbing off one of the things on my bucket list, folks, and that means it proves astrology really does work in real markets. So he'll be talking about that tomorrow, and I'm really interested to hear what he has to say. I've seen some of the preliminary results, and they truly are spectacular. Okay, someone asked a question about the grain markets regarding that soybean oil. The soybean oil has been incredibly strong. Wheat, beans, corn, not so much, but there's a possibility that we're going to have some correction in here, and that will tell us that by golly, we've got a chance here for maybe a little relief in the inflationary index that we've been banging on the door here for so long, but we'll wait and see what happens with that. So tomorrow will be Shane Smolian. If you have any questions, there's still a couple of minutes to go here, 877-927-6648 on Friday. I'm going to do a little nostalgia show here. The anniversary of Bob's death brought a lot of memories back to me, folks. I would like to share all of them with you, but I can't, but I want to share some of the more interesting ones that have happened to me through the years, and I think that that'll be fun, because I'm going to relate them to the trading, too, because that's the thing, as a matter of fact, one of the things I was doing this about yesterday when I knew the anniversary of his passing was there is that in 1976, we were in Las Vegas, and these guys were big gamblers, and I wasn't, but I was big shot this time. I took $1,000. This was 1976 in January, when I was buying these options, these bull spreads. I was long D, short July oil. Long July, short D, soil, and those spreads only cost about $160. Well, I lost that $1,000. That cost me six spreads. Those six spreads would have made me 22 grand, so not only did I lose that, I lost the opportunity of winning 22 grand. So from then on, I keep it close to the vest and don't mess with it too much, so that's basically some of the other stories that I'll be sharing with you, what's happened over the years. Some of them are funny, some of them are sad, but we'll cover them. We'll see you tomorrow with Shane Smolling at WolfTrader.com. Live every day in an attitude of gratitude and may God bless.
