PREFACE

WHY THIS BOOK IS IMPORTANT

Most of the advanced astrological material which is attributed to W.D. Gann comes from a personal letter which Gann wrote in 1954 and several of Gann's original charts. These documents were released to the general public from the late 1970s to the mid 1980s. In recent years there have been books, seminars, home study courses and other products all of which say they are based on Gann's 1954 soybean letter. The publicly available material dealing with Gann's Circle Chart and Active Angles has all been based on this letter and has in fact been wrong.

In this book I will reveal for the first time anywhere that Gann's 1954 soybean letter contains a secret, deeper level of astrological knowledge that can not be learned by merely reading Gann's letter. The reason I was able to discover the hidden knowledge in Gann's soybean letter is simply because I may be the only trader who actually uses a soybean horoscope, as Gann did. In addition, I have brought into a single book six of Gann's original charts to provide absolute proof that the astrological methods in this book are correct and were used by Gann.

Most copies of Gann's charts have been reduced in size because the originals are so large. Some have been reduced from a 24 inch diameter to 4 inches. In this book I have done something unprecedented, I have made artistic replicas of Gann's original charts so you can see clearly the astrological information they contain. Of course, I indicate where to acquire the actual chart if you want to study the original. In this book there are 14 artistic replicas of 6 original Gann charts. This book also contains more of my exclusive literary analysis of Gann's writings. Not only will I use the literary key explained in Volume 1, but I will introduce a second literary key. Using both literary keys I will unveil astrological knowledge Gann concealed in the following: Truth of The Stock Tape , Wall Street Stock Selector , Mechanical Method and Trend Indicator For Trading in Wheat, Corn, Rye or Oats , Master Egg Course and Speculation: A Profitable Profession . Volume 2 also progresses beyond the literary keys and unveils material from Wall Street Stock Selector which Gann concealed without the use of a literary key. This includes the astrological material concealed in Gann's discussions: "How Cycles Repeat", "When A Man's Trend Changes" and "How To Balance U.S. Steel".

When dealing with Gann's astrological methods I have a saying: The truth without proof is just your opinion. Gann's Scientific Methods Unveiled: Volume 2 moves beyond opinion by providing proof that Gann used the astrological methods being taught. That is why this book is important.

Introduction

Gann's Scientific Methods Unveiled: Volume 2 was written with the assumption that the reader is familiar with the basic astrological material presented in Chapter 2 of Volume 1. For this reason there will not be another long explanation of the astrological basics. This introduction will provide the essential information needed to understand the ideas developed in Volume 2.

Nomenclature of Gann's Price and Time Angles

It will help if you know the nomenclature of Gann's Price and Time Angles. In this book there are references to Gann's traditional non-astrology Price and Time Angles simply as 1x1 or 1x2 angles. Gann described his non-astrology trend line method in terms of the price to time relationship. Gann wrote the name of the angles as, 1x4, 1x2, 1x1, 2x1, 4x1 and so on. Let's examine what is meant by 1x4. The first number in 1x4 is the increment moved up or down in price and the second number is the increment moved to the right in time. So an upward sloping 1x4 angle is created by moving up 1 price unit and over four time units. The 1x1 angle moves up or down 1 price unit and over 1 time unit. That is all there is to it.

Numbering of Figures and Charts

In Volume 2, the figures and Charts are numbered the same way as in Volume 1. Each figure and chart is assigned two numbers, for example Figure 5-7. The first number is always the chapter number and the second number is the item number within that chapter. This means Figure 5-7 is the 7th item in chapter 5.

Basic Astrological Information

The zodiac is a circle divided into 12 divisions which are called signs. Each sign of the zodiac represents 30 of motion. See Figure I-1. The signs, in counterclockwise order are:

	Zodiac Sign	Glyph	Start Degree	End Degree
	Aries		360-0	29.9
	Taurus			59.9
	Gemini			89.9
	Cancer			119.9
