Applied Gann Theory

There are two quite different sides to Gann analysis, the deeply theoretical, seeking to understand the essence of the science behind Gann’s market theory, the Law of Vibration, and the outright practical, looking for working tools and techniques that will help with applied trading. Though our greatest interest is in the cosmological theory behind Gann’s work, and the universe in general, we also specialize on the practical tools that traders need to specifically analyze and trade the markets. Some Gann experts excel at theory, while others are simply practical traders who are less focused on ideas in deference to trading techniques. This category will specifically focus upon the books and courses that provide very specific and applied tools from Gann’s toolbox used for real time trading. Some may explore deeper theoretical principles and some may just focus on pure trading tools, but this category will give working techniques to better fill the arsenal of any trader. We often recommend that new Gann students focus first on developing a practical trading ability, so that they can fund their future research with profits from their trades, and then also apply new insights from their theoretical study to their practical trading as they advance. This section will help to identify those most practical tools.

Daniel Ferrera

Dan Ferrera is one of the most respected market analysts and educators in the Gann field. For 20 years his works have been some of the most popular in our catalog. Aside from being one of the clearest interpreters of Gann, he also has produced his own advanced work, The Spirals of Growth & Decay, developed prior to his analysis and presentation of Gann’s theories. For those seeking a solid, Master’s Degree level education in technical Gann analysis, we cannot recommend anything more highly than Ferrera’s works.

Ferrera has written detailed course on every angle of Gann’s work and provides a fast track into a deep understanding of each field of Gann’s work as well as advanced topics in technical analysis. He has works on cycles analysis, Gann’s Square of 9, Gann’s Mass Pressure Charts, one on risk management and Gann’s swing trading system, another on the details of Gann’s complex geometrical and mathematical tools, one on astrological Bible interpretation, on teaching how to create yearly forecasts like his own yearly Outlooks, which give a prediction for each year, and more. If you are wanting to get a first taste of Gann and to save yourself years of hard work putting together his ideas, Ferrera is a perfect place to start, and walking through his series of fantastic is like getting a Master’s degree in Gann and technical analysis.

William D. Gann

History’s most intriguing financial analyst, forecaster and trader, W. D. Gann produced a 10,000% return with a 93% success rate in an audited 1909 interview. Gann said his market theory was based upon the Law of Vibration, leading scholars and analysts on a 100 year intellectual quest deep into theoretical physics, alternative science and esoteric philosophy, seeking to understand a cosmological ordering system linking the financial markets to the influences of natural science.

Daniel T. Ferrera

Our most popular author, Dan Ferrera is a master of making complicated ideas easy to apply. His 9 courses present KEY elements of Gann Theory & Technical Analysis including Time Cycles, the Square of 9, Periodicity, Price Structure, Swing Trading and Risk Management, providing advanced tools for the average trader. His popular Yearly Outlook provides a fascinating and accurate analysis of market action.

Dr Lorrie Bennett

Dr. Lorrie Bennett is one of the only Gann experts to have cracked the Law of Vibration! After 20 years of grueling research she discovered a complex code in Gann's texts which led her to the full solution. Following in Baumring's footsteps, Dr. Bennett lays out the science behind the Law of Vibration in an intensive 4 Volume Advanced Series revealing the Patterns, Numbers, Planets & Geometry behind Gann's secret trading system.

Dr. Jerome Baumring

Dr. Baumring is the only known person to have fully cracked W. D. Gann’s full Cosmological System! He reproduced Gann’s results, forecasting markets within 3 minutes of turning points. He extended Gann’s Law of Vibration into DNA Coding, Chaos Theory, & Topology, creating multi-dimensional, mathematical models of the markets, proving them to be a fully Deterministic System. The deepest Gann research sourcework ever compiled.

Dr. Alexander Goulden

A Cambridge scholar who, intrigued by the challenge of Gann’s esoteric work created a powerful set of technical tools based upon principles of Ancient Geometry, Celestial Mechanics, and Pythagorean Harmonics, which project Price, Time & Trend with exact precision. His 2nd course applies the Secrets of Ancient Astrology to forecast market turns & trends more accurately than the best works on Financial Astrology preceding it.

Hasbrouck Archives

Cutting edge Space & Solar Researchers, Muriel & Louis Hasbrouck’s Space/Time Forecasting techniques are STILL more advanced than those of NASA or the current scientific community. The Hasbroucks produced 50 years of Market Forecasts with a 90% accuracy rate and were able to forecast Space Weather, Earthquakes & Geomagnetic Storms. Their advanced techniques develop a new Theory of Space Time Field Forces & Influence.

W.D. Gann Works

W. D. Gann’s private courses represent the most important of all of Gann’s writings, and go into much greater detail than his public book series, with which most people are only acquainted. They should be carefully studied in their full detail, as they contain the deepest insights into Gann’s theories ever presented. Stock traders must be sure to study all the commodity courses and vice versa, since Gann often put techniques that applied to all markets in only one or another course.

We stock the complete collection of the works of W.D. Gann, both his courses and books. Our set of Gann’s courses were initially collected and compiled by Dr. Baumring and Donald Mack in the 1980’s from dozens of original rare private course that were distributed by Gann throughout his career. Many people mistakenly think that Gann just wrote two courses called the Master Stock Course and Master Commodity Course. This couldn’t be further from the truth! Each of Gann’s “courses” were actually small, “sections” of a few pages to a few dozen pages, individually bound in paper folders. These various pieces were then compiled into different sets which he sold as various collections at different prices to different students over the decades. Some were more commonly sold to all students, while other were more secretive and sold only to close private students who often signed non-disclosure agreements, and paid exorbitantly high prices. It is these rarest pieces that make the difference between one collection and another.

The later courses Gann sold in the 1940’s and that he “called” the Master Courses were nothing but various compiled collections of these smaller pieces, and would vary according to who purchased them and what price they paid, and were never set until after Gann’s death when purchased by Ed Lambert. For instance, there are pieces that Gann advertised in the 1950’s as “new” like his Master Mathematical Formula for Market Predictions, or his rare #3 Master Time Factor Course which were never included in his “Master Courses”, and similarly were never included with any of the Lambert Gann courses sold by Lambert or the Jones’ from the 60’s until now. So these “master” courses are and have always been incomplete collections. Further, the Lambert Gann courses sold by Billy Jones through the turn of the century, were retyped and re-edited by Billy so that they did not provide the original unadulterated content that Gann produced, making them unreliable, edited versions. Our editions are exact facsimiles of the original copies sold by Gann, with no editing or adulteration of any kind.

Our 6 Volume set of Gann’s Collected Writings was further supplemented by new finds of rare pieces, like those mentioned above, rediscovered by the Institute over the past 30 years since Baumring’s death, and comprises the most complete and the only properly organized set of courses that are available. Gann has very particular sets that he sold only to his higher end clientele, placed in specific order to provide a particular logic to his work. Our collection maintains this order and includes a further collection of rare and historical courses, letters and private materials which make our collection the most complete and important collection available. Serious students of Gann should beware most “supposed” collections of Gann’s writings as most are unauthorized, incomplete, and distorted representations of his work, and cannot be trusted. Our set it the most reliable set of Gann’s unadulterated and most important work available…

Gann Theory

While W.D. Gann’s own original work is a critical element for any Gann researcher’s collection, most people will find Gann’s work to be extremely vague, complicated and difficult to penetrate on their own. In our experience, it can take many years, if not decades for the ordinary analyst to, by themselves, digest and apply the deeper techniques of Gann’s, without significant help by well-seasoned analysts and traders who have dedicated years to decoding and creating practical tools from Gann’s techniques. This is why there is a fundamental and valuable secondary market of works presenting and developing Gann’s ideas, and making them accessible to any trader. We believe that the best teachers in this field are not competitors, but are fellow contributors to an ongoing field of research, and that their work is mutually supportive and will provide expanded insights when more material is understood.

We maintain the largest collection of secondary works on Gann Theory of anyone in the field. Many of these books we publish ourselves, and are written by top Gann experts and experienced Gann traders from across the world. However, we also review works written by other Gann experts across the field, and add to our catalog any material we consider to be of high quality and importance from the global community of Gann analysts. With our experience in the field, we are well qualified and to provide a peer review of these materials, so as to filter out the best quality work from that of a lower caliber, and then present these to our clientele who demand the highest standards. So any book or course that you find in this catalog can generally be considered to be of the upper echelon of works on Gann analysis. We have new authors submit their research to us ongoingly, so that we are always adding new items to our catalog with fresh insights, alternative techniques or new ideas. In this way we are able to save our clients significant wasted funds in exploring the territory at their own cost.

Introduction

While Dr. Baumring’s course series represents the primary pathway into the complete science behind Gann’s Law of Vibration, there are numerous other excellent interpretations and valuable applied techniques available based upon various partial elements of Gann Theory. Most traders and researchers are not concerned with understanding every inch and detail of Gann’s system. Rather, most are seeking practical techniques and tools that they can use for forecasting and trading the markets that will not require many years to understand and apply.

This Study Guide presents our selection of the very best works leading to a deeper understanding and successful application of Gann Theory. Gann’s works themselves represent a key segment of this category, but as many will attest, they can be quite challenging to interpret on their own. For this reason, there are a number of skilled analysts and traders that have distilled elements of Gann Theory down to practical techniques and methodologies that we strongly recommend for an accelerated entry into the complex world of Gann Analysis.

Each of these works provides a different angle, tool, perspective, focus, framework or skill taught by Gann. Each author has explored and developed their work over considerable time, and has distilled the essence down into these important interpretive works which will save the uninitiated seeker many years on his path to becoming a competent Gann Analyst or trader. Each book listed here represents the compilation of 1000’s of hours if not many years of dedicated research, trial, and error by these individuals. Thus, we consider this the best place to start as a first introduction to Gann studies, and for an accelerated application of some of Gann’s most powerful techniques.

The Collected Courses of W.D. Gann – 6 Volumes

Daniel T. Ferrera’s Master’s Series on Gann Analysis

Ferrera’s courses are our most popular Gann courses, and we strongly suggest them as the first and best place to begin. He takes Gann’s most difficult ideas and boils them down into clear and practical tools that can be applied by any trader, once Ferrera has explained them. His series of books and courses work through all of Gann’s most important ideas, step by step, presenting lucid explanations and demonstrating how to use these tools for practical forecasting and trading. Ferrera’s work alone is like a Master’s Degree in Gann Theory & Analysis.

Eric Penicka’s Gann Science

Eric Penicka’s work, Gann Science: The Periodic Table & The Law of Vibration takes its lead from Gann’s first public interview in The Ticker and Investment Digest in 1909. In this interview, Gann lays out the clearest description of his system of the Law of Vibration that he was using to trade and forecast the markets at the start of his career. It presents the science from Gann’s day relating to the Periodic Table of elements and the chemical theory of the market. Penicka presents the clearest thesis as to how Gann’s spectacular trading shown in the Ticker Interview was accomplished, giving the scientific foundations behind this side of Gann’s work while developing the theory into a powerful arsenal of trading tools and practical applications based upon this insight.

Daniele Prandelli’s Gann Systems

Prandelli is a very practical analyst and swing trader and his course are popular with traders looking for clear methodologies and a working swing trading system using some of Gann’s best tools. This work is extremely practical and is used by many working traders to generate consistent returns.

Robert Rundle’s Magic Words Tunnel Decoder

Robert Rundle’s 2-volume set, Magic Words Thru The Zodiac, is one of our most unusual works which seeks to decode Gann’s most mysterious book, The Tunnel thru the Air. This romance novel written by Gann in 1927 is a front for a complex astro/cyclical code that Gann used to embed many of his deepest secrets. Rundle discovered a Masonic cypher that he uses to decode cycle lengths and starting points to reveal important cycles in varied markets. This study presents a completely different side of Gann’s work and opens up a doorway into a vast study of the most complex side of Gann.

Applied Gann Based Trading Systems

Each of the following works are excellent! Walker provides a thorough analysis of Gann’s swing trading system applied by Gann over 17 years of trading. Robert’s work gives the best presentation of Gann’s Position Trading theory which generates large returns from small capital. Goulden’s work creates a correlative package of tools that integrate with Gann’s best work.
