How To Square Scale Lock Chart For Gann Tools 

Description

Please comment with additional suggestions or feedback if you are experienced with using advanced Gann squared methods.

The squaring of price and time was one of the most important and valuable discoveries that Gann ever made. In his trading course he stated “if you stick strictly to the rule, and always watch when price is squared by time, or when time and price come together, you will be able to forecast the important changes in trend with greater accuracy.”

The squaring of price with time means an equal number of points up or down, balancing an equal number of time periods.

By illustrating angles inside a range, the trader can visualize how the range has been squared.

Thanks @EsotericTrading , scaling has been driving me nuts when trying to work with methods that require defined angles. Will give this a shot!

Its actually easier than you think. This method dosnt work As you are not properly squaring price and time. You are only locking price at a 10 scale then applying a square to it. Most charts wont agree with a generic scale of 10.
I study GANN every day, and TV actually does have sufficient tools- if one knows how they work. By deleting the info in the GANN box your also removing a lot of useful information. Also the square doesnt dictate moves up or down- they are only markers for potential moves. Gann was an Astrologer and so the astrological data combined with the squaring of price with time must be combined together. But simply for anyone wishing to square price with time, It only means for any given time you must have equal number of bars. Mathematically expressed as Square Root of Price/ Time. With the proper knowledge of Astrology, and knowledge of how to do swing analysis this works wonderfully. CHEERS

@Moorsc0de, I called the exact dates and cycles for BTC for over a year now so I must be doing something right, lol. See my other work and you will understand. Have an open mind. CHEERS

@Moorsc0de, do share your wisdom with us. How do you line up a Gann fan correctly for BTC on the 1D? Hint: it's not "1 unit of price per 1 unit of time".

@fronk_pachonk, I have no need for hints...and you are breaking a prime rule of GANN if you are not using price and time in 'square' harmony. I mean that is the basis of the technique and it holds true to this day. Read and look at his diagrams. He showing you what he did as far as charts go, but that is the "easy" part. There is an astrological & mathematical process involved. Not sure what your using, but its not GANN if it does not follow price and time. Good Luck with that.

When you lock the scale does it have to be a specific number such as 10, 20 etc or any one? I noticed if I use 10 then switch to 20 the angles intersect price at different points. So suspect I'm doing something wrong.

I never thought of the Fixed gann square without inside lines, I always used the "Square" shape function and held the shift key (which true's it out). Worked the same way with the "ellipse" shape function (until the new sphere function upgrade... so much easier to draw flowers of life)
cheers.

Also like the color alternation scheme there on your squares
