His highly original mind singles him out as one of the 20th-century's
investment giants. He was the first to apply other astronomical parameters in
forecasting financial markets. He introduced a method of Horoscope analysis
known as the Five Fold Horoscope and claimed that astrological progression of
the moon over the points of such a horoscope produced vibration in the price
of a stock or commodity.
His forecasts are documented in his Market Previews, and he published a total
of 8 books, all in English, and all on trading stocks and commodities: Time
Factors in the Stock Market - 1933, Complete Course of Astrology - 1937,
Bible Interpretation - 1937, Stock & Commodity Traders' Handbook of Trend
Determination - 1940, Gold Nuggets for Stock & Commodity Traders - 1941,
Egg of Columbus - 1942, Turning Four Hundred Years of Astrology to Practical
Use - 1943, George Wollsten - 1946).
Stock & Commodity Traders Handbook of Trend Determination (1940) is an
excellent introduction to the methods used by George Bayer. It lays the
ground work principles in fairly simple terms which will assist in
understanding his other works. Through George Wollsten, an invented hero,
he presents a wide-ranging exploration of chart analysis enriched by a deep
understanding of practical market operation. His imaginative account guides
the reader through Wollsten's fictional existence, examining, explaining and
putting into context each of his character's investment decisions or financial
commitments.
George Bayer (1941): Gold Nuggets For Stock & Commodity Traders [69p.]
This is a more philosophical presentation of Bayers vision of the markets and
the science or art of Financial Market Forecasting. Rather than delineating
sets of trading rules or explaining technical astrological processes, here he is
explaining the foundations, sources and philosophy of his techniques and
theories. It is an exceptionally interesting book, essential for understanding
this Paradigm of Forecasting, as used by Gann, Bayer, Baumring and the
like. And easier read than most of Bayers books more similar to George
Wollsten.
George Bayer (1939-40): Preview of Markets, Vol. I, Nos. 1-10.[120p.]. This
collection contains 10 issues of Bayers Market Monthly News Letter, filled
with market monthly analysis and forecasts of stock and commodity markets,
as well as fascinating astrological, philosophical and cosmological articles and
numerous diagrams. A rare and very important collection of Bayers thought.

Since 1932 the author has published four books at intervals dealing with
trading of Stocks and Commodities. Unfortunately, much of their contents had
been presented somewhat hard and difficult to the average man even to those
with a college education. This time the entire problem has been remodeled,
many parts eliminated as too complicated, three new ideas added which so
far had never been alluded to anywhere. It is those three ways which are
bound to give confidence to any trader, that put him far ahead of all others
who just buy or sell on statistics, economic or other bases. Everything brought
in this book is "home grown". The charts supplied for checking commitments
as well as those produced with the aid of certain rules explained therein
cover the period 1909-1911 inclusive. The previous books covered periods of
1928 to 1944. Therefore a period of more than 30 years have been used to
show that the rules work in any period, past or present; they should work in
the future in the same way. Hints are given to delve into ancient books of the
dark ages after the study of this book has been completed to discover that
they all have been written on the same subject - cycles and time.
On page 128, for example, we read about Venus Transits Over Ascendant For
Wheat:
"Check any year for which you may have a chart for wheat and see what
happened when Venus in the sky passes the Ascendant of the January 2nd,
1587 chart. If you use the 1941 chart and think clearly, you will find still a
greater law right within this one which gives you nine times out of ten the
actual direction wheat must take from the moment ephemeral Venus strikes
22 degrees 4 minutes and 17 degrees 24 minutes of any sign. It will pay you to
work an entire year on this secret, although some may find it by just sizing up
the situation.
Let us look at the 1940 Wheat Chart! Venus passes these critical Ascendant
points 22 degrees 4 minutes and 17 degrees 24 minutes in that year on
February 2nd, bottom; February 14th, Bottom; February 27th, intermediate
Top; March 11th, Top; March 24th, Top; April 7th, bottom; April 22nd,
extreme Top of the move; May 9th, (Wow! Top! Ready for the burst); July 1st,
Bottom Was this rule worth while to get my book to find out what the study of
Astrology can bring forth? Use this rule, of course, in conjunction with the
progressed chart for Wheat the way I showed in the Wool example and you
will produce astounding forecasts.
