"We use the square of odd and even numbers to get not only the proof of market movements, but the cause"

Lots of people spend years of effort and thousands of dollars studying W.D. Gann's methods for investing in and trading the financial markets. We do not have Gann's elusive "secrets." What we do have - and what we believe traders who have spent time and money studying Gann will most appreciate - is a simple, easy-to-understand, and easy-to-apply technique for using the Square of Nine. The chart below is called a Roadmap Chart and is an illustration of a reversal when "price squares time." This chart was produced on software that comes bundled with our ebook about trading the Square of Nine. We had so many requests for information about the charting software that we decided to include it with the ebook at no extra cost.

We cover the details of how to construct the grid on a Roadmap Chart in Excel on our sister site. Square roots are part of the mathematics behind the Square of Nine but they are not the whole story. Our Square of Nine method is mathematical. We only use very simple formulas that can be done on a cheap calculator or in a spreadsheet. Our method replaces the paper Gann Wheel but it is still useful to explain the Square of Nine with the traditional Gann Wheel layout.

As we wrote on our sister site (Tradingfives) in this Square of Nine article, the Gann Wheel is really only a square root calculator. You probably recognize that the illustration below is just the first few rings of a Gann Wheel with the numeral "1" at the center.

In Square of Nine parlance we say things like 19 is 90 degrees from 15. That makes sense only if you can visualize that this rectangular table of numbers is enclosed in a circle (or series of circles) of 360 degrees. In this case, the number 19 is 1/4 the way around the circle from the number 15, or 90 degrees in circumference from 15. The number 34 is directly above the number 15 and positioned one circumference or one ring outside the circle that contains the number 15. In the same sense that we can say that 19 is 90 degrees from 15, we can say that 34 is 360 degrees from 15, or one complete rotation of the circle from 15.

You can see from this brief explanation how Gann was able to tie the circle and the square together: 360 degrees of a circle and squares of odd and even numbers. W.D. Gann has been characterized as many things, some not so complimentary, but there is little doubt that the man was a numerical genius who saw things in a way nobody else ever had before.

WD Gann remains controversial and influential to this day. Some deep Wall Street Insiders, men whose positions presume credibility, insist that markets can turn on a dime because other Insiders "know" the geometry of the markets without the need to communicate the easily calculated Gann angles and price levels that change trends. Square of Nine principles are well beyond the mainstream of conventional technical analysis. WD Gann spent 10 years researching ancient and contemporary knowledge about geometry and how things work before he made his first trades. The Gann hexagon, the natural squares calculator, and the square of 144 are reflections of Gann's earliest work on stock market geometric techniques. We believe that the core principles underlying the Square of Nine are the geometric foundation for all Gann's work and that without understanding the market's geometric framework WD Gann is forever an enigma.

This five minute video will explain the philosophical roots of W.D. Gann's numerical trading methods and provide you with some background for why we believe that the Square of Nine is the foundation of all Gann's trading methods. Even if you never intend to use Gann's Square of Nine as a trading tool, some will find comfort in the same ancient wisdom that Gann drew from. "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven." The short take is that Bear Markets are natural as rain, nothing to fear, and also a trading opportunity.

So what is the purpose of this site?

Tradingfives.com is our main site. In the 10 years or so we have been publishing the site has grown to more than 700 indexed pages. Sometimes people have a little trouble navigating around and may miss the most useful and interesting information. Needless to say, we have had a lifelong fascination with the work of W.D. Gann and do not want to see our contribution (we hope it is) lost in the noise.

The other purpose of this Square of Nine site is that we can make special offers of our Gann, Hurst, and Fibonacci material from time to time that will never be available on Tradingfives. In fact we are doing that now.

Only visitors to this website can access this special offer. It will not be available on the Tradingfives site.

Hundreds of traders have bought our highly regarded ebook "Trading the Square of Nine with a Pencil and a Calculator". The regular price is $34, which includes our unique Roadmap software. This is the link to the Tradingfives sales page for the Square of Nine ebook. Do not buy the book at the Tradingfives site. We have a better deal for you here.

We recommend the book to traders who have studied Gann but are frustrated with their lack of progress in actually implementing Gann's work in their daily trading. That is not uncommon. Gann wrote in a very cryptic fashion. He made his material difficult to understand and sometimes deliberately misleading because he believed that real knowledge should come only to those who work the hardest to discover it. In our opinion Gann went overboard in his obfuscation. With very few exceptions all the writers that followed Gann claiming to unveil this or that Gann Secret have not not done any better. Maybe they are trying to imitate the master. Maybe they just don't know what they're talking about.

We can make this promise. Our Gann Square of Nine ebook is easy to understand. The mathematical formulas we tell you about can entirely replace the paper Gann Wheel and can be done by anybody with a pencil and a cheap calculator. There is never anything else to buy. No exotic charting supplies. No plastic overlays. No additional training courses to clarify what was taught in an earlier course. You can do everything that can be done with the Square of Nine with just our ebook, a pencil, and a calculator. You can have the author's cell phone number (561-654-4129) if you have any questions.
