How to Learn Gann Method

In order to know how to learn Gann method we should first know what was Gann interested in ?

So will talk about the interests of Gann

The most important figures are:

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

Due to repeat mentioned in the holy books, and also for the study of some old Egyptian texts

which has proved the importance of this figure for them ...

2 - Number 9

Because it reflects the cycle of pregnancy in women and is also the latest odd number

, followed by even numbers

3 - the number 12 and its squared 144

Due to the presence of twelve astronomer towers as well as some religious stories that tell

For the twelve tribes of the tribes of people of Israel .

and also every one day has a 1440 minutes which 40% of the 360 ​​degree of the circle ...

4 - Circle

(Philosopher Plato fired on the circle name of perfect shape)

Gann also was interested in circled  because it is a geometric shape expresses the time for him as containing a 360-degree represents the number of days of the year and dividing the circle on 4 parts produces a quarter circle ,which Gann considered its right angle represents the four seasons of the year and every season has 90 days , and by dividing 360 days on 12 month we have the number 30 which represents the number of the months per year.

As well as Gann dividing the degrees of the circle on the nature figures to measure the time and result the following numbers:

360 – 270 – 180 – 120 – 90 – 72 – 45 – 36 – 27 – 18 – 9

5 - geometric shapes

Gann used in his analysis two geometric forms

A – the spiral shape for price

B - Circle of Time

The price moves up and down spirally

The cycle of time moves in a circular motion

Gann  reached to knowing that  the price reflects the direction of its movement when it joins with the spiral Price with time Circle.

Of Gann interests :

The anniversary:

Most traders gives 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 U.S. markets)"

Time factor

So that everything is too early and has  his own timing. Through his research Gann found that time represents a major constraint on the movement of prices in any market and that there was a playoff dates should be taken into account during the study of the movement of prices in markets.

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

How long will continue to rise or drop in prices?

When to change direction?

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

I hope you find good information to start the first step how to learn Gann method, our meeting in new subject.

Technical Analysis Tools

Relative Strength Index (RSI):

The RSI measures the ratio of up - movements to downward -movements and adjusts the calculation to reflect the index within a range from 0 to 100. If the index was 70 or more, financial tool will be considered as it has entered within the scope of the large number of buying operations (a situation where prices have risen more than market expectations). It is Taken from the relative strength index of 30 or less as a signal to enter a financial tool within the scope of the large number of sales (a situation where prices have fallen more than the market expectations) ..

Stochastic oscillator:

This indicator is used in determining the conditions of the large number of acquisitions / large sales operations in the scale of 0 to 100%. The index is based on the observation that in the upward trend, closing prices of the studied periods tend to be concentrated in the upper part of the scope period. And in reverse, while prices fall in a strong descending trend, closing prices tend to the proximity of the lower level of the period studied scope.   Random accounts give two lines; % (K) % and (D) are used to identify areas of the large number of acquisitions / frequent sales on the chart. The spacing between the random fluctuation line and the price movement of the underlying financial tool gives a powerful trading signal.

Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):

This index includes a drawing of the two momentum lines of the market. The line of this index is the difference between the average of basic movements and the signal line or launch line, and which an exponential moving average of the difference is. If the index moving average intersects convergence -spacing with lunching line, it takes this as a sign of a possible change of the public trend of the market.

Number theory:

Fibonacci numbers: a series of Fibonacci numbers (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34,) composed by adding the first two digits of the number to reach third. The ratio of any number to the next number is larger than 62%, which is a common Fibonacci retracement number. Unlike 62%, which is 38%, are also used as a Fibonacci retracement number.

Gann numbers:

W. D.  Gann was a trader in the stock and commodity works in the fifties and who collected more than 50 million dollars from the markets. He earned his fortune using methods that he developed for trading financial tools based on relationships between price movement and time, known time / price equations. There is no easy explanation for Gann ways, but the bottom line is that he has been used angles in charts to determine support and resistance areas and predict the times of changed future trend. As also he used lines in charts to predict areas of support and resistance. 

Waves:

Elliott Wave Theory. Elliott Wave Theory is an approach to market analysis based on repeated waves models and Fibonacci series of numbers. Elliott wave form shows ideal progress of five waves, followed by a decline of three waves.

Gaps:

Gaps are left areas on the bar graph where it never gets any trading. Upward gap formed when the lowest price on the trading day higher than the highest price of the previous day. And downward gap formed when the highest price for the day is less than the lowest price of the previous day. Usually upward gap is signal on the strength of the market, while the gap downward to indicate the weakness of the market. Breakaway gap is a gap in the price is formed upon completion of an important price pattern. And it is usually begun to refer to the price movement task. Fugitive gap is a gap in the price usually gets near the middle of an important market trend. For this reason, also it called a measurement gap. An exhaustion gap is a gap in the price you get at the end of an important trend and indicate that the trend in the end.

Trend:

Trend refers to the trend of prices. The high peaks and turns indicate into an upward trend, while the low and descending peaks and turns indicate declined trend which determines the extent of the current trend. A breaking line Indicates usually to a reversal in that trend. Horizontal peaks and turns are of the characteristics of trading within a narrow range.

The most common technical tools:

Coppock Curve: it is an investment tool used in technical analysis to predict lower levels in the downward market.

Directional Movement Index (DMI): technical indicator and is commonly used to determine if the currency pair takes a public trend or not.

Unlike fundamental analysis, technical analysis does not care much for any factors "for the larger picture of" affecting the market, but focuses on the activities of the financial instrument market.

Hexagon

Hexagon is a form of a polygon which consists of six edges and six vertices. And 720◦ is the total of the internal angles of any hexagon.

The hexagon patterns are the most prevalent in the nature due the strong efficiency which they have, if we take on consideration their existence either in bees’ honeycombs or the Giant’s Causeway.

If we talk about hexagonal structures we find that each line in the hexagonal grid is short but in the same time it can be if a large area to fill with the fewest number of hexagons, this mean that it is required less wax by honeycombs to construct and gain lots of strength under compression.

All the internal angles of the regular hexagon are 120◦ and have the same length of all its sides.

It has six lines of symmetry, and the longest diagonals are twice of the length of one side, and which are connecting opposite vertices.

The regular hexagon can be divided into six equilateral triangles, so we can see as triangle with a vertex at the middle of regular hexagon. And the regular hexagon gives the strength and the large space and building materials.

The regular hexagons, like squares and equilateral triangles, fit together without making gaps in the tile of the plane, as well as the reason resides behind the hexagonal shapes of cells of a beehive and makes efficient use of space and building materials.

Although it is equilateral, but it is not considered a triambus:

The upper equation gives the area of a regular hexagon of side length T.

And there is another formula which considered alternative formula for the area where A= 1.5dt and in which the length d is the distance between the parallel sides in the regular hexagon.

The alternative formula and which known flat to flat distance for the area is:

We can find the area by the two formulas:

Any hexagon in the circle is a cyclic hexagon, where all the three main diagonals intersect in a single point.
