"Gann Illustrated" Gallery

This is a gallery of charts to illustrate some of the techniques used by W.D. Gann, in charting securities. These charts, will not be updated, as a general rule. The intent is to show the trader how the technique offers a hint of things to come. This is an attempt, on my part, to help clear up some of the confusion relating to Gann. Hopefully it will not add to it.


I do not profess to be an expert at Gann. I have spent a great deal of time studying W.D. Gann, but in the words of the late great Freddie Alpers, "Gann is a black hole". The more you learn, the more there is to learn. These illustrations are some of the techniques I use or have seen used. If you choose to use any of these techniques, you do so at your own risk.

These charts are presented using Peter Pich's Gann Trader 2.1, Matt Verdouw's Market Analyist II, MetaStock 6.0 and TTI's Advanced GET. Their web sites are available on the Hot Links page, listed on the opening page of this website.
