Mulligan, You're right but my tools fit my hands comfortably so I suspect I've calc'd planetary orbits using similar variables and alternate methods to arrive at the same measure. I've plenty of beta ideas keeping me busy but Ganntrader is in the plan to nail down my theories about your planetary ideas. I've a cdrom you'd like called Redshift, check CompUSA, it's a hands on orbital study of the universe. It's a pleasure bumping up against astronomy if it simplfies my calc's. Osci

But seriously folks... Is there really anything to this Gann stuff or is it all a lot of antiquated nonsense? Does anyone out there use these methods on a regular basis? If so, what are these methods and what successes have you had? Failures? What do you like and dislike about it? How did you find out about it and how and why did you learn to use it? Is the data valid? Are the methods valid? Is there basic introductory material available or do you have to read all those weird astrology books (which I have no intention of doing)? Is there something worth learning or is this all a big mystery? If there is something to learn is it possible to learn it in a straight forward manner? What are the good books? What are the bad books? What software is available and is it worth the price? How does Gann compare to the other methods? Does the Gann method live up to it's claims? How often do you use it? How much time do you devote to applying it? Is it a workable system that can be applied to today's markets? I have no interest in fortune telling. I just want to make some money and have some fun doing it.
