5. Forex

6. AUDCAD - Daily — Extended Butterfly setting up here. Clear impulse wave up from January low. One could easily fit this wave structure as a possible wave 3 of 5 up secondary
wave. I believe its still worth considering for a harmonic trade setup. We have a nice price / momentum divergence on the last up wave. Suggested sell stop to entry level is 1.016.
Stop levels if triggered would be 1.0491 for 1/2 and 10452 for the remaining 1/2. Possible targets are .99 and .96.

7. AUDCAD - Weekly— On the weekly scale the pattern is even more convincing for a reversal here. We have a really nice ABC retracement pattern within the Gartley pattern.
AUDCAD has been testing the upper volatility boundary. A wave C target possibility is 0.92 to 0.88. We suggest using the daily chart for execution.

8. AUDJPY - Trade was triggered on 4/15. Stops loss orders are live. Clear corrective type wave structure from A to D. X is very impulsive, which should contribute to a well behaved
reversal here. .Sell stops to entry at 95, with stop loss levels at 97.15 for 1/2 the position and 96.41 for one half the position are calculated. Targets of 93 and 89.

9. AUDNZD - Smaller scale harmonic repeating fractal. Complex flat corrective EW structure. If AUD weakens across the currency matrix this could be a nice reversal.
No Trade suggestion because pattern rank is too low.

10. AUDUSD- Entry was triggered at 0.9350 with targets of 0.91 and 0.88. suggested stops are now at 0.953 & 0.947

11. EURAUD - Buy stop entry triggered at 1.488 still Very nice AB = CD wave setting up here at .618% of the previous impulse wave. Clearly a nice area to get long with
the prevailing trend. Current stops 1/2 @ 1.436, 1/2 @ 1.424. Minimum expected target is 1.59

12. EURCAD—Possible bearish reciprocal AB = CD. No trade suggested.

13. EURGBP—Possible Minor wave three drive reversal pattern

14. EURJPY—Corrective Symmetrical triangle. Slight upside bias despite the double top underneath a major top formation.

15. EURNZD—Buy stop to entry was triggered 4/11/2014, stops are now at 1.578 for 1/2 the position and 1.572 for 1/2. Preceding structure lacks the traits of a 5 wave im-
pulse or extension (blow off) at X so we are less confident in this particular trade.

16. EURUSD— Weekly scale corrective EW pattern suggests that the current up move from the 2012 low could be at a critical reversal juncture. The Gartley PRZ of 1.401
has not been tested yet but we think this pattern is of high enough rank to merit early short positions for aggressive traders. No formal trade is suggested yet until the
PRZ is reached for conservative traders. But if the PRZ gets hit a sell stop to entry at 1.367 is what we calculate. Stops at 1.424 and 1.415 would be used if filled. Poten-
tial downside targets could be 1.24 or new lows long term.

17. GBPAUD— Small scale crab caught a reversal here. No trade recommended due to low structure rating but suggested stops are shown for those whom want to take
the risk.

18. GBPCAD— Example of a successful Gartley pattern.

19. GBPJPY— Potential Fractal completion levels

20. GBPNZD— Buy stop to entry was triggered at 1.953. Current Stops at 1.92 and 1.91 Measured move targets at minimum at 2.00 and we suggest taking off 3/4 of the
total position if this is reached since the target 2 is beyond what we see feasible in the next move.

21. NZDJPY— Very high ranking pattern symmetry. Clearly a 5 wave EW impulse with a “Bat-Crab” in between wave 3 and 5. When we get a high ranking Ew pattern
that also has a Harmonic relationship in the 3—5 wave termination points it’s a very high conviction trade setup. We recommend 200% normal position size for ag-
gressive traders. Sell stop to entry at 86.00, with stops at 92.98 & 93.99 respectively. Minimum expected targets are 78 and 70.

22. NZDUSD— Sitting on nice profits here. Sell stop to entry was triggered on 4/11/2014 at 0.8635. Stops are now at 0.876 and 0.86 Potential targets include 0.8472 and
0.8150

23. USDCAD— potential bearish 5-0 pattern

24. USDMXN— bullish Gartley pattern developing nicely

25. USDSGD— potential bullish Bat, PRZ not yet reached

26. Commodities

27. WTI Crude Oil— Trade is Live! High pattern rank bearish Gartley pattern identified. Sell stop entry triggered @ 102.58, current stops at 105.21 & 104.00 respectively. Tar-
get 1 almost complete @ 99 .

28. Gold— Daily Fractals

29. Gold— Weekly Possible bullish Crown

30. Silver— Nice Bullish Bat setting up here . Suggested Buy stop entry 20.00 with stops at 1/2 @ 18.51, 1/2 @ 18.90 with Targets at 22 & 24.

31. US Ten Year Treasury Note—Bullish bat in early April reversed nicely but caught a bearish cypher in a minor wave. Looks like a potential wave 5 down move below
recent lows

32. US 30 Year Treasury Bond—Weekly Reverse Head and Shoulders bullish breakout. Tested neck line and failed. Large primary butterfly held support and we are now
seeing a bottom structure reversal. Small buy stop to entry at 135.16 is recommended with stops at 131.16, possible target measured move is 143.

33. Indices

34. SHANG HAI INDEX— Amongst the very complex structure here we have found a nice minor wave Bearish Bat pattern. The Sell stop to entry zone we suggest is 2185
with stops at 1/2 @ 2261, 1/2 @ 2286 Potential Targets are minimum at 1980. Trade is Live and aggressive traders can enter now. Conservative traders wait for anoth-
er push through 2185.

35. Jakarta Index—Update : ENTRY Suggestion Not triggered yet. High ranking bearish Gartley pattern on the weekly scale. There is also nice symmetry inside the X and
C legs. This indicates there is some well behaved wave energy occurring in this market and should be high conviction trade. We recommend %150 bigger position
size than normal.

36. Shanghai Index—Update : Current stops revised to 2225 for 1/2 & 2201 for 1/2. Target 1 almost realized

Methodology & Strategy
Harmonic— “any component of a periodic oscillation whose frequency is and integral multiple of the fundamental frequency.”
“The periods of neighboring waves in price action tend to be related by the small whole number.” - J.M. Hurst
Our aim with this report is to only focus on identifying the best possible trading patterns that are occurring in any given market. We utilize a variety of algorithms to find specific
geometric ratio wave patterns that have favorable risk to reward projected movements. Most of our trades are harmonic patterns and ideal symmetry elliott waves in the tradition
of H.M. Gartley, Larry Pesavento, Ross Beck, Scott Carney, R.N. Elliot, Ian Copsey & Bryce Gilmore. We blend all the best nuances that we have studied and thoroughly tested from
each of the noted analysts and have also developed some proprietary tools of our own for trade qualification, entry and management. In terms of Elliot Wave theory we analyze
waves in isolation for our primary trading time periods (daily & weekly). We don’t believe in the subjective nature of manually counting elliott waves but rather only focusing on 5
and 3 wave patterns that have perfect symmetry in regards to time and price. In essence we focus only on waves we recognize to have high probability fractal structures.
Meaning only if specific geometric symmetry is identified we then investigate for a trade entry point. When the market is creating wave fractals that are not amongst our high
probability pattern repertoire no trade is taken or forecasted.
Common Newsletter Nomenclature
Pattern Rank—Our proprietary measurement system ranks patterns based on many variables within the internal structure as well as the macro technical environment (longer term
waves & trend). We will highlight these patterns but if the rank is too low we will not recommend a trade.
PRZ—Potential Reversal Zone, is also defined as our clearly defined level that a pattern must reach / test at least once in order to qualify as a harmonic pattern
Pattern Names—BAT, BUTTERFLY, GARTLEY, GARFLY, CYPHER, SHARK, ALT– BAT, CRAB, DEEP CRAB— These labels refer to specific harmonic 5 point fractal structures that appear in
the markets. Please refer to the USER GUIDE here —> http://aetheranalytics.com/images/AetherConspectusUserGuide.pdf or full specifics and details for each pattern
Detrended Oscillator—One of the only 2 indicators we will refer to in our charts is the Detrended Oscillator this is a proprietary calculation and is very similar to RVALUE indicator laid
out by Mark W. Helweg & David C. Stendahl in there book Dynamic Trading Indicators. We have found this to be a great tool in analyzing the over extending to the up and
downside of a markets “normal” behavior. It is also very useful for finding divergence point between price and momentum.
Aethex Indicator— Is another proprietary calculation alike to the commonly used Momentum Indicator. We have formulated a smoothing function that allows us to see a markets
momentum clearer and with less noise. This can be used for entry signals as well.

Trade Management
We primarily recommend trades that have a minimum of 3 to 1 risk reward ratio. Initial risk (stop loss) levels we often utilize are (ATR 14, 1.618), (ATR 21, 1.272), (ATR 14, 2.5) (ATR 21,
3.0) from the entry price. Then a trailing stop from the current price is used with the ATR measures previously outlined. Entry technique is the only somewhat subject process in our
trading methodology. Users should always be aware that if a trade risk to reward ratio is less than 3:1 then the entry point, risk point or minimum targets need to be revised. We
always show 2 potential target areas for each trade. Once Target 1 has been reached we recommend at a minimum putting the trade stop loss at break even. Typically we take
1/2 the position off at Target 1 and trail stops until target 2 is reached or we get stopped out.
Position Sizing
There are many different ways we suggest utilizing position sizing for your portfolio. For the purpose of this newsletter we will simply suggest our confidence rating in the context of
each trade. When we mention “Normal” position size this is size that you have determined to be most optimal position size for your specific risk tolerance and trade management
style. We will suggest 1/2 (50%) normal or 3/4 (75%) normal for trades we have slightly less confidence in & 6/4 (150%) or 8/4 (200%) for trades we have more confidence in. This is
only a suggestion and should only be considered as opinion or commentary from us for each trade. We never ever recommend “betting the farm” or “going all in” in any trade
because it surely leads to ruin. One of our favorite Portfolio position sizing formulas that we recommend is the following:
Percent Volatility Sizing -{ Position Size = (CE * %PE) / SV }- Where CE is the current account equity (NAV of portfolio, %PE is percentage of portfolio equity to risk per trade
(2%, 3% and 4% are recommended), SV is the stocks 14 day ATR
