The first book to bring a highly controversial charting method down to earth for today's futures traders. W. D. Gann continues to be one of the most controversial figures in technical analysis. Considered eccentric, abstruse, and even mystical by some, his techniques, which combine geometric figures with time and price, have nevertheless been successfully adapted and used by several generations of traders. This book explains how Gann concepts apply to all major markets. It shows readers how to integrate Gann theory into modern computer charting techniques and real-time systems. JAMES A. HYERCZYK (Palos Park, Illinois) is President of JAH Research and Trading. He is also chief technician for a large futures research and publishing company.
'If you want to learn about Gann methods, this book is the place to start. Jim Hyerczyk has produced a no-nonsense primer that should be on every student's shelf. Plus, the book addresses the practical challenge of putting the methods to work.' Glen R. Ring, Editor/analyst, Trends in Futures 'A thorough, comprehensive book, painstakingly researched, extensive in documentation, and meticulous in detail. A precise narrative of the trading strategies of an extraordinary forecaster of more than market movements.' Leslie Rosenthal, Managing Partner, Rosenthal Collins Group 'Hyerczyk has distilled the Gann mystique and mumbo-jumbo into easy-to-understand dialogue. This is a must-have reference for the beginner as well as the experienced trader. After years of study, I gained one new very profitable insight from Chapters 2 and 3.' Jim Twentyman, President, Custom Charts
