[The following is a reprint of an article in 'The W. D. Gann Technical

Review', written by Billy Jones in February, 1982.]

Market Vibration
W. D. Gann was a curious man. He noted the many parallels within the different realms
of science and nature's phenomena. For instance, Gann noticed the similarities between
chemistry's periodic law and music's harmonic octave.

The keyboard of music has the fundamental octave of seven notes and each octave
repeats these seven notes on a higher or lower pitch or number of vibrations. The
elements, when numbered in order of their atomic weights tend to repeat fairly simply
properties at every 7th element; like notes of a musical scale.

What interested Gann was the fact that these profound laws and characteristics also had
common traits and ties throughout the markets as well.

On the accompanying 1981 May Wheat chart notice that I have marked June 6th which
was the low on this chart. Also notice that I have marked the trading days of July 29th,
September 18th, November 10th and January 5th (from the low these would be the 36th,
72nd, 108th and 144th days as labeled).

I have drawn a 45-degree angle from the bottom up and a 45-degree angle down
connecting the marked days.

It is interesting to note the fact that on the bull side of the market, every 36 trading days,
price is up 36 cents! On the bear side every 36 trading days, price is down 36 cents!
This did not end there as it carried through to the 180th, 216th and 252nd trading day.

It should be noted that once these 36th days were completed, price did not trade below
these days' lows while on the bull side and did not trade above the high of these days on
the bear side (see dotted lines on chart). Research shows that this phenomena of 36
trading days repeating changes from time to time.
Looking at some statistics we see:

36 Trading Days x 7 = 252

225 Minutes in a Trading Day (Wheat) x 36 = 8100

8100 = Master 360 degrees Circle Chart Squared or

90 x 90.

(See page 115 of W. D. Gann Commodity Course)

Looking closely at the May Wheat chart we can see a certain harmony and rhythm.

Are these the same properties that are familiar with music's octave, chemistry's periodic
law or for that matter, color's spectrum? Mr. Gann insisted that 'vibration' was the
governing factor.

W. D. Gann stated:

Through the law of vibration every stock and commodity in the market place moves in
its own distinctive sphere of activities, as to intensity, volume and direction; all the
essential qualities of its evolution is characterized in its own rate of vibration.

Stocks and commodities, like atoms, are really centers of energies, therefore they are
controlled mathematically. They create their own field of action and power; power to
attract and repel, which explains why certain stocks and commodities at times lead the
market and turn dead at other times. Thus to speculate scientifically it is absolutely
necessary to follow natural law.

Vibration is fundamental; nothing is exempt from this law; it is universal, therefore

applicable to every class of phenomena on the globe.

Thus, I affirm, every class of phenomena, whether in nature or in the market, must be
subject to the universal laws of causation, harmony and vibration.

Future issues of the W. D. Gann Technical Review will cover more on these subjects.
