For many, replicating what W. D. Gann really did has been a calling. Most of us have a nagging inkling that more drives financial markets than future cash flow and technical momentum. The subconscious mind senses some kind of repeating patterns, but the conscious mind seems unable to accurately quantify them.

W. D. Gann discovered a way to put his finger on it. The unpublished trading strategies of W. D. Gann measure and quantify the forces that cause the movements in financial markets. Therefore, the strategies and methods taught in our "Magic In The Markets" training are able to lead price, and bear little resemblance to the lagging market techniques taken from face-value statements in Gann's public writings. W. D. Gann wrote his books to serve three purposes. First, to give the public sound market advice. Second, he wrote reminders, cloaked in a ‘veiled language,’ of the real techniques he taught to private students. Finally, his books served to spark imagination and attract more private students.

We believe these methods and strategies were passed down to W. D. Gann by the family of a man who cornered the cotton market in New Orleans 150 years ago. They are built on a foundation of orphic schematics which you can find expounded in the works of the theosophical writers of the early 1900s on W. D. Gann’s recommended reading list.

Those who've claimed to “study Gann” for 10 to 20 years have found 'Magic' an original, unique, paradigm shift. There is virtually zero crossover between the methods taught in “Magic” and most publicly available ‘Gann’ that has left holes in the pockets of so many over the last 20 years. Sadly, many have wasted years and untold thousands going down the rabbit holes of the ‘cottage industry’ Gann.

These Gann ‘knockoffs’ are typified by subjective, ambiguous market approaches and simply rearranging Gann's public writings. And then there are the "out there" Gann offers. Some offer the first ‘initiative’ lessons for thousands, and if you are lucky enough to be deemed worthy, the price of the ‘real meat’ goes up from there. The secret is always in the next step, and thousands away.

Real and tradeable Gann always reduces to a precise mathematical process. It is a skill and craft that can be learned. That’s why “W. D. Gann: Magic In The Markets” contains everything we know about W. D. Gann, taught in precise formulas for one fee. Continued follow up, refinements, and new discoveries are free thereafter.

Gann’s unpublished methods are hard to find, but much easier to do. Certainly much easier than a modern python-coded quant trading program. Have you spent years unsuccessfully trying to decode what Gann really did on your own? It's far from your fault. Do you think Gann intended for you to easily figure it out on your own? His writings were meant to draw the reader in to the real teachings. The calculation for most of Gann’s techniques can be done under a minute by hand, with the more complicated cycles taking about 1 hour to draw out for an entire month or year.

There is 2 sides to the "Magic In The Markets" Training and catalogue of Gann's methods. First, the fully outlined strategies Gann encoded in his works. These can be traded on a stand-alone basis. They come with detailed back-testing and are objective and rule based. Some are individual techniques while others are combinations of individual techniques Gann recommended trading.

Second are the individual techniques which W. D. Gann used in different combinations based on the market's liquidity and volatility. These are rule based and objective as well. But they fulfill a function, like predict trend or predict price, instead of being fully encapsulated trading systems on their own. These leading techniques are unable to be found elsewhere, and are most effective filling in the missing pieces left by conventional technical analysis.

From arduous decoding and back-testing, we believe Gann’s strategies and market techniques are timeless. They achieve the same unrivaled edge today as they did when Gann traded them only when replicated completely, authentically, and correctly. They remain unique, as even the fastest modern computers today are unable to brute-force Gann’s mathematical formulas. This is because Gann employed non-linear variables and data sets which are exogenous to market analysts even today.

Extensive back-testing is pictorially presented to 'Magic' attendees for myriads of strategies, techniques, markets & timeframes. Substance, content, and detail are extreme, and the applications consume all of the time and space in the both the 425-page manual and 4-day training session. Zero fluff or filler. References to the origin of each technique in Gann’s work and much, much more are expounded in the accompanying 425+ page illustrated manual.

“Magic In The Markets” is not for everyone. The trading results W. D. Gann left behind prove he was a disciplined, active trader who was constantly present at the footstool of the market to take every signal in the strategy he happened to be trading.

It will be impossible to gain any edge with W. D. Gann if you plan to golf except for the one day where Gann is telling you the market will go up 90 points. Whether you want to trade once a month or 5 times a day, gaining an edge with Gann will be achieved by those who avail themselves to the market in a disciplined manner and trade the way the strategy or method is back-tested.

Because Gann’s unpublished methods taught in “Magic In The Markets” are rule-based mathematical formulas, they tend to help those that are struggling with a lack of discipline or unorganized approach to financial markets. But for those unable to overcome emotional issues interfering in your self-discipline feeling confined by rule-based approaches, Gann will be another insufficient cure.

“W. D. Gann: Magic In The Markets” contains so much more than we can display on this site. You can go deeper into Gann's methods by scheduling a live, interactive Virtual Tour via Skype. The tour is interactive and visual. You can see how each technique is calculated and applied, and then walk through the strength of the back-testing. Plus you can ask all the questions you want.
