I can understand your points. For myself I would like to get a working knowledge of Gann's work not as a be-all and end-all but rather as another tool. Indicators, signals, filters as to why a trade may be ill-advised or well-advised, whatever.

At one time I preferred to use a limited number of signals, if you will, to enter or exit a trade. Oddly, now I am able to get a grasp quickly looking at several. With Gann, I think I may just use his work as a confirmation signal..provided I can get an understanding of how to use it.

At the moment I am starting out small, with a book called "Pattern, Price and Time". I'm not certain, but I think Pich worked developing the software as the author was writing the book. They worked together, to some extent, if I am not mistaken.

Ken,

<As I type this, the industrials are down 110 points on
the day! Many of his studies were based on moves in eighths. A big spread back then, but a mere blink today.>

The eighth move that is referred to is the distance between
the support/resistance lines,not .125 cents.
