Hi Staff, Why do you feel a need to apologize for sounding esoteric? Telling people the world is round sounded crazy some years ago. You cannot exclude the changes of the seasons. Gann also considered the equinox to be significant, as I believe it is. It's important to note that Gann did not say that a market must turn on a particular date. He could not be that precise because the drift or skew distorted the numbers. But he understood that geometry was flexible enough to factor the drift into the calculation so that those points of coincidence provided greater opportunity for a turn at that particular time. I use that calculation primarily in my market timing, and they work all the time. Those are the median lines that intersect on turning dates. I'm aware of his circle of squares, but I never use them. They're not as accurate as the geometric applications, which are remarkably precise. I respectfully disagree with you when you say that human emotions contaminate the formula. It is that very element in the chart that is elusive to most. It is the very ingredient in the gestalt of Gann that is quantified and measureable with geometry. Today, factoring human emotion is no longer a mystery. Have a great week. GZ

So I'm taking out my special coin and I'm asking a few pertinent questions. Heads=yes and tails=no. Will the Dow be up tomorrow? The flip...heads, yes. Will silver have a big up day tomorrow? The flip...heads, yes. Will Saddam do something this week that will cause the market to react very negatively? The flip...heads, yes. Is the bear market in gold over? The flip...heads, yes. Will The Packers blow their game with winless Indianapolis? (The Pack is ahead by a point 28-27 and Indianapolis just intercepted on the last play and have the ball at midfield.) The flip...heads, yes. :( Will there be a two inch or more snowfall in Los Angeles this winter? Tails--my first no.
