Today we have modern software which we can use to instantly find any answer, but to use these tools effectively we must understand the underlying principles of the tool and then analyse the results on our charts. I have given examples proving the Square of 9 creating remarkable signals in our Forex markets, incredible because Gann died in 1955 and the Forex trading didn’t start until the 1970’s, some 20 years after Gann’s death. In particular their understanding of mathematics and astrology was very advanced. The original Square of 9 in the temple and pyramid proves beyond any doubt that the ancient civilisations were much more advanced than we have given them credit for. He found it inscribed into a temple in India and inside the Great Pyramid in Egypt.
Surprisingly, Gann did not invent the Square of 9. In front of an auditor, he set a remarkable record in 25 trading days of 286 trades, of which 264 were profitable, a success rate of 92%.Ī major part of his trading arsenal was the hexagon chart, a tool we have come to know as the Square of 9. He went on over more than 50 years to not only prove this by making uncannily accurate predictions on market movements. He was the first to recognise that Timing factors were more important than Price movement. As a trader and analyst, W.D.Gann created several ground breaking tools and techniques.
