The Most Important Things and Figures for W.D. Gann

Here we will talk about the most important tools and figures William Delbert Gann used in analytical philosophy:

Gann was genius in mathematics and science who adores numbers and its sequences.

And some of the natural numbers and its multiples or divisions occupied important milestone in his analyze according for several reasons, including religious, historical, spiritual and psychological.

The most important figures are: 

1 - The number 7 and its multiples, such as 14 - 49

Due to repeat mentioned in the scriptures and also to study some of the ancient Egyptian texts that proved to it the importance of this figure for them...

2 - Number 9

Because it reflects the cycle of pregnancy among women and also is the last odd-numbered in the count, followed by the numbers of bi...

3 - Number 12 and quadrature output 144

Due to the presence of an astronomical twelve towers in addition to some religious stories that tells the story of the twelve tribes of Israel people…

And also per day has 1440 minutes a proportion of 40% of the 360 degree circle...

4 - Circle

(Plato opened on Circle the name of the perfect shape)

Gann was interested in the circle because it is geometric shape and it expresses the time for him as containing 360 degrees represents the number of days of the year and dividing the circle 4 produces a quarter circle its angles , so Gann considered it the four seasons of the year and each separated by 90 days ..

He also divided 360 by 12 and produced by 30, which represents the number of days a month and 12 months in one year...

As well as he divided the degrees of the circle on the natural figures to measure the time and resulted in the following numbers:   360, 270, 180, 120, 90, 72, 45, 36, 27, 18, and 9

5 - Geometric shapes

Gann used in his analysis two geometric shapes

A- The spiral shape for the price              B - the circle of time

Price always moves up and down in the spiral shape, and the time cycle moves in circularly shape

Gann concluded that the price reflects the direction of movement when joined Price helix with circle time...

Gann’s concerns:

Anniversary

Most of traders took out certain reactions at the time of the anniversary of some important events that have occurred in the markets "(Such as the anniversary of Black Monday in the American Market)"

The factor of time

So that everything has a premature and its timing. Through his researches Gann concluded that the time is a major constraint on the movement of prices in any market and that there was a comma dates should be taken into consideration during the study of the movement of prices in the markets.

And from this we can deduce that the time element answers many important questions, namely:

- How long will rise or fall of prices?

- When will change direction?

- In any period will reach the price to what level?
