"W. D. GANN: MASTER THE MARKETS"- TRAINING OUTLINE

"W. D. Gann: Master The Markets" offers both in-person and online training options. Online sessions can be scheduled around availability. Because of the increased volume of the training, these sessions are shorter and more spread out than in the past. You can signal your interest in Master The Markets without charge by visiting our registration page, emailing: seminars@tradingwdgann.com, or by phone at: 312-532-2116 between 11am – 4:30pm CST M-F.

Because the amount of material in Master The Markets far exceeds what can be displayed on this website, the below outline of our Master The Markets Training only covers roughly 60% of the trading techniques and strategies in our catalogue. For questions about specific technique, demonstrations of how the formulas are calculated, and more granular test results, you can schedule a Virtual Tour via the button below, or

SESSION I: W. D. GANN'S UNIFIED MARKET THEORY/LAW OF VIBRATION

Gann's foundational Law of Vibration produces precise mathematical formulas which yield fixed variables for each market. This control mechanism ties together all of Gann's techniques and binds them together to work in harmony on each market. This is the key to finding the unique vibration for each market and timeframe. This foundational knowledge identifies the causes and constants in market movements, allowing the Gann trader to predict trend, turns, and price ahead of market data.

SESSION II: PREDICT LOD/HOD, MEASURED MOVES, & BREAKOUT LEVELS IN EACH TIMEFRAME.

Understanding Gann’s 4-dimensional concept of a “square” enables you to forecast unique ranges, support, resistance, measured moves, breakout/down prices, and timing for each market. "Polarity-lines" polarity lines determine the true "behind the scenes" breakout/breakdown levels for any market and timeframe. Gann outlined and demonstrated "polarity lines" in Robert Gordon's "Major Motors" and "Cotton" campaigns in Tunnel Thru The Air.

In Gann's Stock Market Course,' we are given a very potent and unique tools for predicting measured moves, highs and lows of day (and week and year), and the ends of pullbacks in your market. Among these are Range Finder and Square Outs. These act as anchors for price and time predictions. Gann always used them in confluence with the LOV price projections below. Visit our page for examples of using a confluence of Gann's price and time methods to project HOD/LOD and pullback terminations.

SESSION III: PREDICT DIFFERING CYCLES AND EXACT TURNS.

By knowing where a “circle stands in relation to a square,” we derive the “magic cycle” each market trades in each day, week, month, or year. Next are 2 crucial techniques: “horation” and "directions" market timing, whereby the 2 major turns in the $SPX each day most of the time are predicted.

Check out our examples of these turn times. W. D. Gann used this technique to predict in advance precise, sharp turn times in the major markets and most stocks accurately for most time frames, accurate down to 3 or 4 minutes for intraday trading.

In some markets, Gann's 'magic cycle' turns into a regular, periodic up/down rhythm each day that predicts the energy of a market before it happens. See examples of the periodic cycle strategy on the SP 500 intraday here. See our examples on gold intraday here.

Discover how to use Gann's "magic cycles" of time and volume to tune each indicator to your market and timeframe. Tuning indicators to magic cycles ensures each indicator is working as designed on your market and timeframe. Indicators simply measure a function of the market (like relative strength, trend, oversold) over a cycle. If you follow the wrong cycles, your indicator will be useless, and will fail to give you reliable readings. Check out the TOPSTEP TRADING COMPETITION we won on the first try using only this method and Gann's Law of Vibration price predictions to scalp reversals.

SESSION IV: USING LOV'S “MATHEMATICAL FORMULA” TO PREDICT PRICE

Predict exact bottom/top prices for each day, pullback, or market swing. W. D. Gann’s Law of Vibration, seen in his numbered wheels and squares, is applied to his “mathematical formula” to predict exact prices in each swing, time period, or market pattern. Gann always used LOV in confluence with tools like Range Finder and Square Outs. This Law of Vibration formula is handed to each attendee on our proprietary LOV prediction software (open code). Gann said every high and low was mathematically related, and this is how these predictions are made. See examples of LOV price projections used in confluence with range finder, turn times, and magic cycles to LOD/HOD, pullbacks, and entries on pullbacks against trend.

Learn W. D. Gann's real use of his numbered wheels and squares was to confirm price predictions from Range Finder and Square Outs. Gann used the 'square of 9' and the other numbered wheels & squares as a short-cut to project price with the Law of Vibration. In his unpublished techniques, Gann used wheel and squares much differently than currently publicized.

SESSION V: BIENNIAL, ANNUAL AND DAILY FORECASTING

You will learn how W. D. Gann obtained his "Curve #1" and "Curve #2" for his annual and 2-year forecasts, in addition to forecasting intraday patterns before the market opens each day. Our "Empire" Market Forecast Letter duplicates this method of Gann's annual forecast in the SP 500.

SESSION VI: PREDICTING TREND & CYCLES IN ADVANCE

Forecast the start, direction, duration, end, and sudden flips of any market trend before the market opens for the day, week, or year. W. D. Gann dedicated his entire book 'The Truth of The Stock Tape' to outlining the construction, use, and rules of predicting the market trend in advance. We call this this formula Arcana, and it served as the backbone of Gann's trading rules. Gann explains that this precise, objective mathematical formula calculates mass psychology and big-money moves in advance. In his book, Tunnel Thru The Air, Gann went so far as to call the Arcana a 'mind reading machine.'

W. D. Gann's "cycles of progression" accurately predict whether the next cycle leg will be up or down, and for how long . These cycles predict the UPS/DOWNS on the SP 500 on a biennial, monthly, and weekly timeframes. See our examples of Gann's alternating trading cycles. Gann added proprietary trading rules, of "Methods of Operation" to unlock profitably trading these cycles.

In his book, 'The Magic Word,' Gann outlined the calculations of these cycles in a veiled language. We believe they are superior to 'cycles of repetition.' in several ways. Cycles of Progression can be forecast far in advance from a fixed point using a precise mathematical formula, eliminating any spreadsheet or guesswork. Cycles of Progression always maintain an "up/down" sequence, even if an individual cycle legs fails, eliminating any ambush by 'inversions.'

SESSION VII: GANN MECHANICAL & SWING METHODS

W. D. Gann's 'Mechanical Method' provides a mechanized framework for trend, entries and exits. Written to toward the end of his life, the Mechanical Method served as a template to trade as a stand-alone strategy or incorporate Gann's more complex methods.

W. D. Gann had articulated different Mechanical Methods on US Indexes, Wheat, Corn, and Soybeans. He taught these Mechanical Methods independently from astro and numerology. Based on the trader's taste for complexity and access to market data, Gann actually offered traders two versions of the Mechanical Method on the SP 500. Our back-testing Mechanical Method as a stand-alone shows what a monster this is.

For those that want to be flat by the end of each day, we believe that the Intraday Mechanical Method was W. D. Gann's flagship for intraday trading. The unique time periods would have enabled him to create the charts and price comparisons in his head. Combining the time periods with Arcana Trend and Mechanical Rules, see an example and check out the back-testing for yourself. We now have the last 28 months back-tested without a month that draws down.

Related to the Mechanical Method, Gann developed a Swing Method with related rules and a longer trade duration lasting between 2 days and 3 weeks.

SESSION VIII: GANN TRADING STRATEGIES

In this session we look at concrete, rule-based trading strategies that assemble 2 or more of Gann's individual techniques. These include trading the Trading The Tokyo J-1 Cycle, Gann's Silver Springs metals trading approach, Euro Trend Daily Chart, and the 'Annulifier' Cycle 1-hour trade,. We are constantly updating this section to include new strategies like the unbelievable Goldfinger Daily and Goldfinger Intraday.

In mid-2024, we discovered market makers automating an algorithm based on W. D. Gann's Law of Vibration. Applied to the SP 500 intraday, "Unicorn" now has 2 full years of back-testing. Read more about Unicorn here and see the crazy equity curve
