The Secres of Gann Angles

Much has been published regarding WD Ganns’s use of geometrical angles. Today, many
software programs (incorrectly) have these angles as standard features for technical analysis.
However, few(if any) people know what they really are or how to actually use them. I have
heard so many stories about these angles that it is clear to me that they are completely
misunderstood. Some will say that your charts have to be scaled to a particular Price
increment to square out the chart. Others will say that it is bases purely on geometry and
because the Tangent of 45 is I then this must be the real 1 x 1 angle.
The funny thing is both arguments are correct but not completely correct is a Gann sense!
First, lets examine what Gann actually said about this subject:

“After long years of practical experience, I have discovered that Geometrical Angles measure
accurately Space, Time, Volumen, and Price.

Mathematics is the only exact science, as I have said before. Every nation on the face of the
earth agrees that 2 and 2 make 4, no matter what language it speaks. Yet all other sciences are
not in accord as mathematical science. We find different men in different professions along
scientific lines disagreeing in mathematical calculation.

There are 360 degrees in a circle, no matter how large bow large or how small the circle may
be. Certain numbers of these degrees and angles are of vast importance and indicate when
important tops and bottoms occur on stocks; as well as denote important Resistance.
