The Bubble Index Contour: TNX

After working on the contour map code and running TNX through the algorithm, I can now show you how I want you to think about the relationship between fractal geometry, LPPL Oscillations, and financial time series. With windows ranging from 52 days to 13,000 days, the output of The Bubble Index Contour for TNX (CBOE 10-Year Interest Rate) shows some interesting features currently in the process of development.

You can see that there is a growing bubble centred around the 9,000 day window; also, a sort of harmonic bubble around the 4,500 day window. This will be of immense importance in the upcoming months. Bill Gross has said bonds are safe in the short term, but watch out for long term; Martin Armstrong has been calling for 2015.75 to be a crucial phase transition in bonds worldwide.

Keep an eye on this TNX contour plot as that date approaches. (NOTE: As you can see from the plot, it contains artefacts along the diagonal due to interpolation over the grid of data. As there is not enough time to calculate every individual window, I had to calculate the windows in intervals. I will update this graph as I obtain more closely spaced intervals.)
