W. D. GANN: MASTER THE MARKETS
In 1909, Wyckoff witnessed legendary trader W. D. Gann once make 286 trades in 25 days- 264 of those trades were profitable! Gann pinpointed the forces that cause movements in financial markets- giving his trading methods an incredible edge. The unique forces he identified that drive financial markets underlie and precede technical analysis and even order flow. By measuring and quantifying these variables, you too can identify market trend, time, and price before they become visible in market patterns.
We have a letter that W. D. Gann wrote to his parents in 1908. In that letter Gann states that he discovered a superior system of trading the market that was based on variables outside of conventional market analysis. Gann further states that this system was validated by the wealthiest men alive at that time, who had unsuccessfully tried to apply the same system for over 30 years. These men were the capitalists and floor traders of 100 years ago. We believe that this wealthy coalition of market insiders adopted Gann's methods and then passed them down from generation to generation, including today's largest market makers.
TRADING STRATEGIES WITH A UNIQUE EDGE
That is why W. D. Gann’s trading strategies still dominate today, because they are now automated by the world's largest market players. Gann built these strategies on the foundation he called the "Law of Vibration." Compared to trading strategies based on conventional technical analysis, they boast consistently high win rates, low drawdowns, smoother returns, elevated benchmarks, and minimal market exposure. This is because Gann's strategies identify big money movement as it happens, instead of after. Read more about W. D. Gann and Master The Markets here.
D’mitri Richardson, CMT, has introduced W. D. Gann’s legendary and time-tested trading strategies to a whole new generation of traders by implementing them in today’s fast-moving, computer-driven markets. Attended by rockstar YouTube traders, CMTs, CFAs, hedge fund CIOs, wealth managers, and top traders and analysts from some of the world’s leading financial institutions, Master The Markets also offers retail traders one of the few consistent avenues to beat modern AI machine-learning. Younger traders are finding that Gann's strategies enter and exit at “less cluttered” times than the masses who get shaken out or faded by relying on conventional technical or fundamental analysis. By transforming Gann’s principles into precise mathematical formulas and trading rules, they become non-linear variables within modern quant frameworks. This makes Gann-based trading strategies nearly impossible to uncover using modern AI and machine-learning.
W. D. GANN'S COMPLETE, ORIGINAL METHOD
Master The Markets combines the complete revelation of W. D. Gann’s original, unpublished trading methods with professional-level trader training from a CMT. For long time Gann aficionadas, "Master The Markets" includes the step-by-step breakdown of W. D. Gann's complete trading methods, all meticulously deciphered from Gann's writings over the last 20 years. Concepts like Gann's "Law of Vibration" and "Master Time Factor" as covering in detail, including the formulas and market applications that spring from them. Included are classic Gann rule-based trading strategies pulled from 'The Tunnel Thru The Air' such as Gann's original swing chart method, the 'Silver Springs' comprehensive metals trading methodology, and trading the Tokyo J-1 Cycle. Read more details about 'Master The Markets' and Gann's methods.
Modern rule-based, back-tested trading strategies include Unicorn market maker method, Intraday Mechanical Method, and Gann Classic Trend & Cycle on Euro and Gold. Master The Markets begins by breaking down and teaching the individual elements W. D. Gann used as the pillars of his trading strategies and approaches, including the 'Annulifier' Annual Cycle, Periodic Cycle, Price & Time Squaring (prediction,) Luther Jensen's original market geometry, and Gann's 7 types of angles and their differing purposes. Get answers to frequently asked questions here.
Many take Master The Markets for the sole purpose of finding and integrating these unique individual price, time, and trend tools into their conventional technical analysis to optimize an already developed trading strategy.
TRADING STRATEGY VS. TRADING APPROACH
Successful traders like John Carter, Ross Cameron, and James Rich Young teach trading approaches instead of strict rule-based, statistical trading strategies. So what is the difference?
W. D. Gann was a serious analyst and trader who stood before the markets every day. Many of his clients were floor traders, brokerage heads, or professional investors. Gann expected that his clients, who he crafted and tested market strategies for, would also be available to the market every day to trade every signal. His back-testing statistics reflected this assumption.
Because wins and losses are not evenly distributed, 80% profitable can quickly turn into something else if a trader (or incomplete script) misses some of the entry signals in any rule-based trading strategy. For this reason, besides teaching W. D. Gann's full, rule-based trading strategies, we now also teach Gann's trading methods as high-probability trading approaches. What is the difference between a strategy and an approach? A trading approach means that the trader is unable to be available to the market to take every entry or exit signal. Therefore, they are unable to rely on the back-testing statistics that assume every signal is acted upon. In crafting these approaches, we incorporate Gann's proprietary techniques, such as cycles, range finder, and trend prediction, with Gann principles, entry techniques, money management, and other technical analysis which statistically identify high-probability trades.
