Astro is part of Analysis... Gann Astro is: 1. Application of what Master Chart represents. 2. Cyclical representation of 1. 3. Angular representation of 2. Simply, why is 360 so important? 365 days for Earth. Then how would you make a Master Chart if you lived in Mars? How would you use the Master Chart if you lived Jupiter or Saturn?
I'm back into doing Gann Analysis due to the end of specific phase in my trading system... Bustin' out Gann in: TICK TRIN PREM just ROCKS SOME ARSE!!! Something to seriously... seriously... consider!!! Next project is VIX...
guys, sorry that the thread is quite long for me and I just have something I would like to say and some questions want to ask if you guys wouldn't mind. I 've been curious about gann's method and I just read something about his son's interview too. (from larry williams' website) so before I start to do any serious research about his theory, i would like to investiage if his story real or not. what his son said may or may not be the truth. we have no way to prove that. but if you guys are familiar about gann's story, you should read about something like this before: "So accurate are Mr. Gann's techniques that in the in the presence of representatives of a major financial publication, he made 286 trades in a period of 25 market days, on both the long and short sides of the market. Of these, 264 trades were profitable! Read articles on W.D. Gann in our Trading Resources Articles. In 1933 Mr. Gann made 479 trades during the year. 422 were winners and 57 were losers. The return on his capital was a staggering 4000%." yes, this so called " major financial publication" was known as "The Ticker and Investment Digest" (later became the Wall Street Journal), and if this article is truth, then the story should be real! because I don't think the famous wall street journal had any reason lieing to anyone. my english is not good, so if there's anyone out there who is as curious as me about gann's method can send an email to ask wall street journal about this's article will be great! ( although i know it's 99% they won't give any reply, but why don't we just give a try? we may get lucky, right?) you can find out this article and other two links i want to discuss here: http://www.webtrading.com/gannarticle1.htm Dear WDGann: I found this site too! www.sacredscience.com i remeber it's the volume one they are sellin on their website which contains gann's ANNUAL FORECASTS and TRADING RECORDS!! did you buy that material from that website? i found one of gann's annual forecast from this link: Gann's 1929 Annual Stock Market Forecast http://www.webtrading.com/gannforecast.htm if you bought their material, can you please tell me if it's the same forecast record they are selling? if the annual forecast from the link above is real, then i think gann still had discover something, although it may not be as great as we thought...... I compare that chart(from the link) with Dow index back to 1929, and i can tell you it's not even close to 90% accurate.....but to me it looks like he still has something there with the chart! i guess most you guys must read 45 Years in Wall Street before. i have this book, and gann actually did a prediction at the end of this book!! the prediction start from 1950 to 1953. i has more detail about 1950's market. and he just said that 1951 and 1952 maybe a bear market. and he did a prediction about election too. I am not familar with history, so i can only compare his prediction with Dow's index historical record........somehow..i don't see a bear market in 1951 and 1952.....and his prediction about 1950 is not really accurate either.... what surprised me is that I had read a book about his trading theory, and there's a chart claims to be his actual prediction for a certain market, and there's another chart showing the real price movement sometime after his prediction. Those two charts are amazingly very alike. WDGann, if you bought the volume 1 from that website, do you mind sending me the gann's annual forecasts and his trading records? thanks in advance.
I got rid of most of the Gann stuff when I moved out of Chicago. My advice studying Gann? If you analyze the market, it's great. If you trade the market, it's not necessary.
I'm guessing this can lead to a vendor churn but I'll bite. Question 1... Does the key to what you call a revelation relate to I-Ching or Kaballah? Question 2... Give me a numeric metaphor to subjectively prove the connections between I-Ching, Kaballistic Astrology and Gann-style Financial Astrology... FirstStrike, let's start there...
