NaturalCycleUser Manual
Installation
Your package should contain two RAR archives: BumaSoft Aspectarian.rar and
NaturalCycle.rar. If you do not have a RAR unpacker installed, I suggest downloading WinRar
from www.rarsoft.com.
Step 1:
unpack these two archives into your MT4 installation folder. If you get any warnings
about overwriting the folders, choose yes (don't worry, it will not remove anything).
Step 2:
check if the file swedll32.dll is located inside the experts/libraries folder of your MT4
installation. If it is, then you have extracted the files correctly. If not, your unpacker
might have created a separate folder for the files, in which case you should cut the files
inside that folder and place them in the MT4 folder, as they should be.
Step 3:
now you should open up your platform, go to Tools, then Options, then Expert Advisors
and make sure Allow DLL imports is checked and Confirm DLL function calls is NOT
checked.
You are now ready to use NaturalCycle!
NaturalCycle settings explained
The first important input is TimeOffset (not shown in the above screenshot). This allows for
non-GMT broker platform adjustments. If your platform time is GMT (check if it is the same as
on: http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/ ), then leave it set to 0. If it is GMT + 3, for example,then you would input -3, so the indicator knows how to obtain the GMT time. If the platform
time is GMT -3, then you would input 3. To find out the platform time, just open the Market
Watch and see the time displayed:
You should be familiar with the notion of planetary aspects. If not, then you can read the
description found at: http://www.horoscopeswithin.com/aspects.php or just Google search
about the subject. The aspects or angular relationships between planets, synchronize with
market tops/bottoms frequently. Your job is to do your research and see which aspects work best
with the market you are trading. Every market has it's own favorite aspects or planets.
In the PlanetaryAspects input, you can tell the indicator what aspects to plot on your chart. For
example, if you'd like it to plot the Moon-Saturn aspects, you would write Moon-Saturn there. If
you'd like it to plot aspects for more than one planetary pair, you separate them by semi-colons
(e.g. Moon-Neptune;Moon-Saturn).
If ShowAspectComments is set to true, there will be comments on your chart showing you what
aspect a certain line is representing. I usually set that to false, so I don't clutter up the charts. You
can see what aspect you have by just hovering your mouse pointer over a line.
You will find about three sets of lookback-forward inputs. These just tell the indicator for how
many bars in the past to compute (lookback) and for how many bars in the future (forward).
These indicators do not repaint!
Next you will have options to enable or disable the appearance of a certain aspect and to set
graphical options (like line width or color of the line). I will skip that, to save space.
AspectsDegreeError is similar to the notion of orb. Let's say you are looking for a 90 degree
aspect. You might allow for a 1 degree orb (i.e. error), so that you are considering the aspect
active between 89 and 91 degrees. It is exact at 90 degrees. There is another reason the indicator
is using this however. Planetary positions for aspect calculus are done on a bar by bar basis.
Which means, if an aspect is exact in the middle of a bar, the indicator would miss it, unless you
account for a certain amount of error. The default works fine for an M15 chart. You might want
to increase that when you are looking at an H1 chart or Daily chart.
AspectAlert and AspectSound will activate or deactivate the alerting system. If AspectAlert is
set to true, a popup window will alert you any time an aspect is about to occur between the
planets you have chosen in the PlanetaryAspects input. AspectSound does the same thing, but
makes a sound instead of showing an alert window.
If DrawAspectSR is set to true, the indicator will plot a horizontal support/resistance price line
on the price at the time of aspects, instead of plotting a vertical line (i.e. time line). Next, you
have the option of selecting what price you want to use: open of the candle, close or middle of the
bar.
Changes in the apparent motion of planets can also cause tops/bottoms in markets. We say a
planet is moving retrograde when it appears to be moving backwards or direct when it is
traveling it's normal way.
You can choose which planets to monitor by entering their names into the MotionForPlanets
input. You need to separate planet names by semi-colons (e.g. Pluto;Neptune;Uranus).
We have explained the lookback inputs previously. Then you have the option of customizing
color/width of Direct/Retrograde lines.
MotionAlert and MotionSound are analogous to AspectAlert and AspectSound, alerting you
whenever this type of event is taking place.
Next, there is the zodiac signs zone. The transit of a planet through a zodiac sign is called
planetary ingress. This can also cause turns in the markets. Planets change signs whenever their
longitude is a multiple of 30 degrees, since a complete orbit means 360 degrees, so a zodiac sign
is a 360/12 = 30.0 degrees section of the orbital ellipse.
You specify the planets you want to monitor in the PlotSignsFor input, separated by semi-
colons. The lookback inputs have been explained.
After that, you have SignDegreeError, which is analogous to AspectsDegreeError and graphical
settings that allow you to customize line color/width.
The Moon is known to affect not only the markets, but the rise and fall of tidal waves. There are
even studies showing that most earthquakes occur durring a Full moon or a New moon.
A Full Moon occurs when the Sun and the Moon are in opposition (180 degree angle) and a New
Moon occurs when the two are in conjunction (0 degrees).
If PlotFullMoon is set to true, the indicator will plot horizontal lines at the time of a Full Moon.
The same goes with PlotNewMoon. You can change colors of the lines and choose what price to
use (middle, close, open).
MoonYear allows you to choose the year to plot moon phases for. Default is 0, which means the
indicator will plot for the current year. If you would type 2009, it would plot for 2009, past data.
StarSize allows you to set font size for the star that is plotted at the point of a Full/New Moon,
when the horizontal line begins. It is not important. Then you have settings to change font
colors for the information shown at the bottom of the chart:
BumaSoft Aspectarian settings explained
hOffset is analogous to the TimeOffset setting from NaturalCycle. Please read the explanation
above.
truepos is just a library switch that allows to calculate real planetary positions (true) or apparent
positions (false). It is advised to leave that with the default option selected.
future_bars tells the indicator for how many bars in the future to plot the aspect.
maxlookback tells it for how many bars in the past to plot.
The concept of orb was explained when we talked about the AspectsDegreeError parameter of
NaturalCycle.
If inverted is true, aspects will be plotted below the zero level. This has nothing to do with the
actual aspects, it's just a graphical option, so that when you will add multiple aspects, you can
choose to plot some above the zero level and some below the zero level, as to not clutter up the
window.
Then you are shown a numeric value for each planet, so that you know how to fill in the next two
inputs:
In the image above, planet1 is set to Moon (1) and planet2 is set to Sun (0). Those are the two
planets that you are looking to be aspecting each other.
aspect_angle is the angle you are looking to plot.
You can choose if you want to calculate heliocentric (sun-centered) or geocentric (earth-
centered) coordinates. The default (false) is geocentric.
BumaSoft Daily Aspectarian settings explained
The Daily Aspectarian just plots the times of the current day when a certain aspect will take
place (if there are any aspects today).
hOffset is analogous to the same setting of the BumaSoft Aspectarian and the TimeOffset of
NaturalCycle.
Next, you have font settings and the position of the text, relative to the top right corner of the
chart.
