Swing Trading was the original technique that Gann himself first taught to all of his students before moving on to more complex forecasting techniques. It is a mechanical process of trading each sequential swing in any market, on any time frame, using specific tools to identify when the swings are topping or bottoming and reversing directions. It teaches the strategy and mechanics of trading, the discipline of analysis and decision making, and the foundations of reading market swings and energy. This is what is considered to be the foundation of trading an individual market and should be studied by every trader and practiced to develop confidence experience in trading the markets.
Dr. Baumring told his students that if they just wanted to make money, they should study risk management and options trading, and then find a good swing trading system to apply those skills to. He recommended Dunnigan’s One-Way Formula and Franklin Paul Jackson’s I-S Method, listed below, as simple introductory swing trading systems which anyone could easily learn to apply. Gann himself wrote a collection of 6 of his own swing trading courses and mechanical indicators provided in Volume 5 of our collection of Gann Courses.
We consider these to be the most introductory works on the subject, but they often lack the detail that beginners require to learn to apply them effectively. As such, these introductory works can be skipped because their principles are better explained and developed by the works in the Intermediate Swing Trading section below.
Since the above introductory works do not generally provide sufficient detail and examples to really master the subject, our interpretive authors have created courses with more thorough analyses and applications of the above systems to take them to a higher level of efficiency and effectiveness.
Tim Walker has written a superb 2-Part Series analyzing the 6-part collection of of Gann’s swing trading courses in his How to Trade Like W. D. Gann Series. Besides these two detailed parts, he also has a 6-hour seminar demonstrating the application of the strategy.
Next, we would consider Dan Ferrera’s Keys to Successful Speculation to provide the best introduction to and foundation to the science of swing trading, perhaps even better than Tim's series. Ferrera studied, in depth, all of Gann’s systems as well as those recommended by Baumring above, then integrated and re-engineered them to be more effective in modern markets. He accompanies this mechanical trading system with a profound study of risk management, the most important principle which all traders must master if they want to succeed. Even fund managers have read this course and commented that it gave them new and valuable insights which significantly improved their technique. Numerous clients have told us that this is the first book that really taught them to make consistent money in the markets, and we highly recommend this to new and even experienced traders.
Daniel T. Ferrera – The Keys To Successful Speculation
Prandelli’s Polarity Factor System is another excellent swing trading system that uses Gann’s Master Time Factor to create a yearly cycle model for each market to identify the timing of swing turns and lengths. It then uses Gan's Planetary Longitude Lines to define price levels, and combines them into a brilliant and effective swing trading system. Prandelli also provides many valuable insights into trade management and risk management which help many traders to learn to protect their capital through a position layering strategy.
All of these courses are exceptional and we strongly recommend all serious traders to study ALL of them to refine and hone their skills before moving on to more advanced systems of forecasting. Once these foundations are strongly established, we then recommend moving on to the courses in the next section to advance to the next higher level.
This advanced section concludes with our very best trading courses in our catalog is Sean Erikson's Trading with Selene's Chariot and Alex Stralker's Pendulum Motion which clearly stand out as the most powerful and effective swing trading courses in our catalog.
Selene's Chariot stands out as our most popular trading course, containing a set of tools that are theoretically profound in their implications while being so simple and practical that a teenager could use them. The first of these tools projects the exact slope of the forthcoming trend from the point of the last high or low, in advance! Using a tool based upon celestial mechanics, it is able to determine, within bars of the new trend, the exact slope angle of any and every trend in any and every market. This is one of the most simple and mind-blowing principles we have ever seen. It also demonstrates, without question, that celestial mechanics control market trends.
The Toolkit, much like an Andrews ML Line & Pitchfork, creates a channel which contains the full breadth of market movement during that swing. It provides two projected termination points for the move, the 1st of which stops the move 75% of the time, and the 2nd which catches most the rest. It also projects the likely time turning point for the next 2-3 turns. Trading with Selene's Chariot provides, hands down, the most useful set of trading tools for intraday to long term Swing Trading that we have seen. This is our #1 Trading Course in terms of popularity, though the next two are also as effective! The Best of the Best!

Pendulum Motion presents forecasting techniques built on a new principle of Circular Scaling, which to our knowledge has never been presented before other than as a basic concept. It uses a fascinating method of charting via time-by-degrees to plot the market according to the parameters of a circular scale using rotational mechanics, upon which all market activity is based. Using Circular Scaling provides the key to accessing Pendulum Motion, which is a new breakthrough method of its own, and is NOT something that would be considered traditional Gann analysis. This is a completely new and original idea developed by the author. Many of our clients consider this to be the easiest to use for less experienced traders of the BIG 3 best trading books listed here, so we strongly recommend it to those who are unsure where to start
The author has racked up the most impressive trading records in history, smashing ALL of Gann's records with 12,000% in one WEEK and 1318% in one DAY! It provides the tools to produce this kind of advanced result in BOTH intraday trading as well as in intermediate-term swing trading, examples of which can be found in Straker's 2022 S&P Results. Alex is a consummate instructor who has produced multiple videos for Pendulum Motion demonstrating how to place the lines and how to accomplish the massive trading results he has. His Online Forum is quite active and there is a lively group learning to reproduce exceptional returns like he does. For less experienced traders who are unsure where to start, we strongly recommend beginning with Straker's Pendulum Motion.
