W.D. Gann: Divination By Mathematics

This is a meticulously researched book that provides an outstanding analysis of a "little known article" Gann wrote in 1919. Explaining Gann's work can be a challenge due to its inherent complexity. However, the author of this book wrote it in such clear language that it is very easy to follow. It wouldn't surprise me if he/she has a doctorate in mathematics. I say this because to explain this type of content this clearly, you have to deeply understand it inside and out. The book mentions an advertisement by Gann that read, "I investigated astrology and kindred sciences to learn the law of the movements in the markets. In them all there was something lacking, and not until I struck upon the law of vibration and attraction...did I find the key to Wall Street." This book discusses what could very well be the key Gann mentioned in the form of "a study of geometric angles" applied in a certain way. If you have an interest in Gann, this is an excellent book to add to your collection.

very good book

Well researched. Clearly written. Unfortunately, it restricts itself to one chosen topic -- the numerology that W.D. Gann may have used as a basis for his newspaper article about Kaiser Wilhelm. That topic was not as broad as I would have liked. However, the author has another book in preparation; so we will see in the end. This is not a book directly about Gann's forecasting methods for trading, but it does give some insight into the likely methods that Gann used for one aspect of his forecasting methods. Contains some good references for further research.

This is a carefully researched and informative book. You will have to do your homework, but this book contains many ideas and paths you can decide to follow to dig deeper. In my opinion the author is a financial and phylosophical researcher with vast knowledge. Will blindly buy next author's books.
