Gann Fan

Gann Fan

Gann Fan represents a set of trendlines drawn from one point at different angles. Gann considered the trendline of 1x1 (45 degrees) as a very important one. If the price curve is located above this line, it is the indication of the bull market, if it is below this line it is that of the bear market. Gann thought that the ray of 1x1 is a powerful support line when the trend is ascending, and he considered the breaking this line as an important turn signal. One point must be set for Gann Fan to be drawn. Read more...
