Gann Emblem
The Gann Emblem is a visual representation used in technical analysis that combines W.D. Gann’s principles with geometric shapes to analyze market trends. This tool helps traders identify potential support and resistance levels by utilizing the concepts of angles and price relationships.
Overview of the Gann Emblem
The Gann Emblem consists of concentric circles and lines radiating from a central point, representing specific price levels and time intervals. This configuration allows traders to visualize the relationship between time and price movements, facilitating better decision-making in trading strategies.
