GANN Emblem and Key Reversal Dates

1 min read

GANN Emblem, named after its creator W.D. Gann, a prominent figure in the world of financial trading and technical analysis, is a unique and complex tool used for forecasting the financial markets. Gann’s methodologies involve geometry, astrology, and ancient mathematics to predict market movements, and the GANN Emblem is a part of this larger analytical toolkit.

The Gann Emblem tool is is a simple graphical display allowing the user to ‘spin’ the pointer of the Gann Emblem to calculate future dates for a possible change in trend.

The Gann Emblem tool uses standard time to calculate dates, and a simple conversion of Days to Degrees is used ( 365/360 ), giving :

One Degree = 1.013888 days.

As of now if we assume that the worlds major trend reversal starts from 06 March 2009 Onwards. And the wheel points to the following key reversal dates.

The Emblem is essentially a circular chart used to determine critical time and price alignments. Here’s a breakdown of its components and how it’s used:

Geometric Basis: At the heart of the GANN Emblem is the use of geometric shapes, especially the square and the circle. Gann believed that the circle (360 degrees) offers a critical reference point for time and price movements. He used octaves (dividing the circle into eight parts, each of 45 degrees) to predict significant price points and dates.

Cardinal Cross & Ordinal Cross: The chart includes a cardinal cross (the primary cross dividing the circle into four equal parts) and an ordinal cross (which divides the circle further into eight parts). These crosses represent key angles, including the 45-degree angle which was of particular significance to Gann.

Gann Angles: These are straight lines plotted at various angles on a price-time chart. The most famous Gann angle is the 1×1 or 45-degree angle, which signifies one unit of price for one unit of time. GANN Emblem uses these angles to project significant support and resistance levels and potential trend changes.

Time and Price Analysis: Gann believed that time and price move in a harmonic relationship. The GANN Emblem is used to find dates when a market might turn by finding the intersection points of these time and price lines. Gann also used astrological alignments, which he believed could affect market movements, as part of his time analysis.

Forecasting: Traders use the GANN Emblem to forecast future price movements by aligning it with a chart’s price and time axis. When certain geometric and temporal relationships align (for example, when a market’s price aligns with a significant Gann angle on a significant date), it may indicate a potential market turn or significant price movement.
