PSE Sub Email #24 — Information Catch-Up, Especially If You’re New

TL;DR

Emma’s Analysis

This is primarily an onboarding/resource email rather than a market analysis email, but the seasonal time counts at the end are significant. The 180-degree count from the US midterms to the May 4 seasonal midpoint is a classic Gann technique — 180 degrees on the calendar (approximately 6 months) is a key reversal/time-change indicator. The projection forward to “first week of November” for a trend change aligns with the US midterm election cycle and the 4-year presidential cycle. This email serves as a useful reference point for the wiki’s onboarding/curriculum concept — it maps the PSE knowledge tree from beginner to advanced.
