Gann Intraday Calculator Hi All, In the next few pages, i will be explaining how to use Gann Calculator and

how to trade intraday based on this calculator. I browsed through many forums for Gann Calculator and found many articles wrote on it. As a normal individual, i was not able to understand any of them. After browsing through more than 2 websites !where no one is sharing their way of trading with this method, they "ust give GA## formula$s%uare$angles$etc$etc&, i found the simple way to trade using Gann '%uare of (.

Gann Square of 9 - Introduction


Gann relied heavily on geometrical and numerical relationships and created several tools to help with his work. Among these tools are the Square of Nine, Square of 144, and the e!agon. "he Square of Nine, or Square as we will refer to here, can #e constructed in at least two ways. "he static Square has the num#er 1 at the center and the dynamic Square has the historic low of the time series in the center. "he Square of $ is #asically a spiral of num#ers. "he initial value can #e found in the center of the spiral. "his value is then increased #y moving in a spiral form. Normally the center value is 1 and the step is one creating the spiral shown #elow.

"he Square of Nine is essentially a time and price calculator, and calculates the square root of num#ers, #oth odd and even num#ers as well as their midpoints. .t also looks for #oth time and price alignments from a specific starting point or price level. /e will however not work on the time alignment as we are trading for intraday only.

Some Interesting Facts about Gann Square


.f you were to look at the num#ers on the grid running down to the #ottom left hand corner on the Square of Nine, you will find they are the square root of odd num#ers 0.g. ,!, 1 *,. .f you were to look at the num#ers running up to the top right hand corner on the Square of Nine you will find they are the square root of even num#ers e.g. 4!4 1 1(. .f you then look at the num#ers running down to the #ottom right hand corner on the Square of Nine you would find the midpoint #etween the squares of odd and even num#ers. 2sing the num#ers 1( and *, as an e!ample of our odd and even num#ers you will find the num#er *1 representing their midpoint.
