Gann Technical Analysis

dividenddynamo

I've been reading up on Gann technical analysis and its different aspects, and I'm curious about how effective it really is in today's trading environment. Given that Gann developed his techniques in the early 20th century, can anyone share their experiences or insights on using Gann angles, time cycles, or price patterns in modern markets? Are there specific asset classes where Gann's methods have demonstrated more accuracy or where they tend to fall short? I'm also interested in how you might integrate Gann analysis with other technical tools. Would love to hear your thoughts and any resources or tips for getting started with Gann analysis in a practical way!

I’ve used Gann’s techniques alongside modern momentum indicators, and the biggest takeaway for me is that they’re great for getting a feel for potential turning points, but not as a standalone solution. I found that combining Gann angles with trend lines and volume data on equities helped streamline some moves, though I struggled a bit in highly volatile assets like some cryptocurrencies. Testing on historical data seems key. All in all, it’s like having an extra lens to view the market rather than the sole source of truth.
