Gann Box

The Gann Box is a technical analysis tool based on the principles of Gann Theory, developed by the famous trader W.D. Gann. It helps traders identify potential support and resistance levels, as well as predict future price movements based on historical price action. The Gann Box utilizes specific angles and price levels to create a visual representation of market cycles and trends.

1. Time and Price Axes: The Gann Box consists of a grid that plots time (horizontal axis) against price (vertical axis), allowing for the visualization of price movements over time.
2. Gann Angles: Diagonal lines within the box represent Gann Angles, which are used to identify potential support and resistance levels based on the principle of market geometry.
3. Price Levels: Specific price levels can be marked within the Gann Box to help identify significant areas where price may reverse or consolidate.
