William Delbert Gann (June 6, 1878 – June 18, 1955) or WD Gann, was a finance trader who developed the technical analysis tools known as Gann angles, Square of 9...
Gann said “ The dates when companies are incorporated and the dates when stocks are first traded in on the New York Stock Exchange or the other exchanges causes them to make tops and bottoms at slightly different dates then these dates for seasonal changes”.
Gann’s Square of Nine is one of the more exotic tools he incorporated in his trading, and while this is a relatively daunting tool that requires a fare amount of practice to master, it can certainly add a whole new dimension to your analysis
There are three kinds of angles -- the vertical, the horizontal, and the diagonal, which we use for measuring time and price movements. We use the square of odd and even numbers to get not only the proof of market movements, but the cause.
"TIME is the most important factor in determining market movements and by studying the past records of the averages or individual stocks you will be able to prove for yourself that history does repeat and that by knowing the past you can tell the future.
