GANN Intraday Trading: Stop Trading Like a Retail Clown !GANN Intraday Trading: Stop Losing Money Like Retail Traders – Live Trade Breakdown
Today, I'm dropping a bomb on the retail herd mentality. This is the live trade I executed just 5 minutes ago, something you'll NEVER see from the 95% of retail losers out there. Why? Because they’re stuck chasing worthless indicators, drawing meaningless trendlines, and blindly following retail 'angles'—all of which are absolute trash.
Let me set this straight: price is NOT everything. You’ve been sold lies, and like donkeys, you’ve followed them into the pit of consistent losses. The market moves on TIME, not price. This is something retail sheep will never understand because they’re too busy following the noise.
Time is king—Gann himself said it, and today, I’ll prove it. Watch closely as I show you how I knew the exact moment the market would reverse. This is precision retail traders can’t even dream of because they’re stuck in a broken system. Ready to wake up and leave the 95% behind? Watch and learn.
Show me the so-called guru or retail trader 'king' who can predict market reversals in advance with pinpoint accuracy like I just did below. They can’t, and you know it.
And here’s what happened market reversed exactly at the point I calculated, and unlike the usual retail garbage, I didn’t just talk; I took the live entry too. Do you ever see this level of precision and time-based entry from any so-called 'retail gurus' or 'trendline masters'? No, because they can’t even come close to this. This is the real way to trade—TIME-based trading. The market turned at the exact time I calculated, not just with predictions but with live intraday execution. Using Gann's astro techniques, you can read the market like a banker. This isn’t gambling; it’s precision trading backed by unparalleled insights.
Now that you've seen how the market responded precisely to everything I outlined, here’s the complete trade breakdown for your review.
Now that we’ve begun the trade explanation, it’s important to note that I won’t be revealing details that aren’t meant for public exposure. Instead, I’ll guide you through a few foundational steps to expand your understanding.
In this instance, I calculated the market’s time using the ascendant, which moves approximately 1 degree every 4 minutes on average. You might wonder why I chose the ascendant instead of any planet. Let me clarify: in Gann Astro Trading, especially for intraday trading, no planetary body fits the rapid movement requirements of such trades. The fastest-moving planet, the Moon, doesn’t suit intraday precision but is better suited for swing trading. By understanding these principles, we’re able to execute trades with precise timing and strategic intent.
And watch step by step as the market price unfolded exactly as I predicted it would. Precision like this isn't coincidental—it's the result of calculated strategy and deep knowledge of Gann Astro Trading principles.
Don't waste time on retail nonsense. Follow me and learn the actual way of trading, where time is the key, not just some random indicators. This is the real deal, not the typical retail approach. Let me show you how the market moves with precision and timing—join me in mastering the true art of trading.

XAUUSD Still IN Range XAU/USD continues to trade within a well-defined range as market participants assess the broader macroeconomic landscape. Key resistance near [ NYSE:X ] and support around [ TSX:Y ] have held firm, reflecting indecision among traders.
Gold's price action is shaped by fluctuating risk sentiment, the strength of the US dollar, and expectations around interest rate movements. Without a clear breakout above resistance or below support, the pair is likely to remain range-bound in the near term.
Eyes remain on upcoming economic data and geopolitical developments, which could provide the volatility needed to break the current stalemate...

Pay attention to the trading range of 2625~2657Weekend news shows that the People's Bank of China has increased its gold holdings by 160,000 ounces again after six months. After more than 13 years of civil war, Syrian opposition forces seized control of the capital Damascus on Sunday. The martial law crisis in South Korea continues to ferment. In the short term, bullish opportunities have increased.
On the one hand, the market will continue to pay attention to news related to the geopolitical situation, but more attention may be focused on the US November CPI data to be released this week. Investors need to pay attention to changes in market expectations. Although the situation in Syria may boost safe-haven buying in the short term, it should be noted that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the conflict between Israel and Hamas may usher in a ceasefire, which may suppress the trend of gold prices.
The MA10/7-day moving average of gold still remains flat, the price is running above the middle track of the Bollinger Band, and the RSI indicator continues to adjust the central axis. The Asian session opened high and touched 2648, and the Bollinger Bands on the hourly chart also closed. It is expected to continue to fluctuate widely at the beginning of the week. Intraday trading will first look at the 2625/2657 range adjustment, and short-term thinking game of selling high and buying low.
The risk aversion sentiment of gold rose over the weekend, but the rise of gold did not continue. It continued to rise and fall, so it is still difficult for gold bulls to stir up big waves. Wait for the rebound to continue to short.
Gold continued to fluctuate in 1 hour, and the moving average still crossed downward and diverged. Gold has not broken through 2657 under the risk aversion situation, so gold will continue to short at highs below 2657.
First support: 2625, second support: 2616, third support: 2603
First resistance: 2657, second resistance: 2668, third resistance: 2677
Trading strategy:
According to the first resistance/support, sell high and buy low in the range of 2625~2657. The focus above is 2668.

Riding the Correction: Unlocking NIFTY’s Next Chapter!Dear Traders,
I hope this message finds you well in your trading endeavors and personal pursuits. I am excited to share a compelling opportunity with you through a new NIFTY analysis that sheds light on the continuation of the market shift. The recent upward movement & the following correction in the market have unfolded as anticipated. Over the past two months, my analysis has consistently pointed to an expected correction due to market overvaluation and distinct completion patterns.
Technical Analysis Overview:
There are three potential scenarios for the ongoing trend, ranked based on their likelihood of occurring.
Scenario I:
The move initiated from 20 MAR’23 – 27 SEPT’24 (16,828.35 – 26277.35) has spanned over 80 weeks (18M) and indicates a significant completion of wave patterns, suggesting an imminent correction. See the visual representation of the trend lines and corresponding fib retracement levels here:
The correlation between static supports can be observed around 23,893.70 and 21,181.45. This correction is expected to be visible within a 3-month timeframe.
Potential support levels include
S – I: 24,893 ~ 24,753 ~ 24,430 levels,
S – II: 24,050 ~24,000 levels and
S – III: 23,683 levels.
*These values are not actual but just levels
The correction might extend to deeper levels (22,664 & 21,550) as the market progresses.
Time resistances are anticipated on 09th OCT, 17th OCT, and 30th OCT for all probable scenarios.
---------------
Scenario II:
The move from 26 OCT’23 – 27 SEPT’24 (18,837.85 – 26,277.35) has completed mid-way and is expected to continue after this correction, potentially reaching unprecedented levels. Find the visual representation of this move with trend lines & fib retracements here:
The range of this move is limited to the monthly timeframe, indicating the completion of 1 year from the start of this sub-trend.
Potential support levels include,
S – I: 24,525 ~ 24,378 levels,
S – II: 23,900 ~ 23,893.70 levels and
S – III: 23,450 levels.
---------------
Scenario III:
The move from 04 JUN’24 – 27 SEPT’24 (21,121.45 – 26,277.35) has almost completed its half journey and is facing a correction before extending its uptrend by a few more waves. While this scenario has the lowest probability compared to the others, it is essential to consider its potential impact on the current trend.
The pictorial representation can be seen here:
Further details are not added as the market actions till now does not validate this probability.
---------------
Other Influential Factors:
Geo-political tensions and concerns regarding escalation have historically preceded corrections prior to the US presidential elections, indicating a prevailing bearish sentiment. Tensions in the Middle East have also contributed to the market plunge, albeit not solely responsible for it. Additionally, the FED's likely rate cuts have been influenced by the upcoming US elections, and SEBI's regulatory actions aim to curb over-optimism and maintain market neutrality.
Important Dates to Remember:
Mark your calendars for OCT 9th (RBI interest rate decision @ 10AM) and OCT 10th (US inflation reports).
---------------
Final Verdict:
While the scenarios are meticulously laid out, the selection of the valid scenario remains a work in progress. We are eagerly awaiting further cues from the market and will provide updates as they unfold. However, one thing remains certain – the current trend has reversed (at least for the mentioned time frames). Therefore, adopting a bearish stance could prove to be profitable.
---------------
Strategy:
Considering the current market conditions, adopting a bearish stance seems prudent, especially levels around 24,450 ~ 24,000 are to be tested. Keep a close watch on the market and stay informed for potential opportunities.

GANN TRADING LESSON: TIME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PRICE GANN TRADING LESSON: TIME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PRICE – W.D. GANN’S METHODOLOGY - The principles of W.D. Gann's trading methodology continue to intrigue and challenge traders worldwide.
At the core of Gann's approach lies the harmonious relationship between price and time, encapsulated in his concept of "squaring."
This principle emphasizes balancing movements in price with corresponding movements in time, thus uncovering the rhythmic and periodic nature of the markets.
Understanding Time Balance in Trading
Gann emphasized the significance of time balance, which involves aligning the duration of a market movement with its magnitude.
This balance is critical because markets, according to Gann, inherently strive to return to a state of harmony, even after experiencing disharmonious phases.
Recognizing these patterns enables traders to anticipate turning points and identify optimal trading opportunities.
The Concept of the Initial Impulse
Gann’s methodology suggests that every market movement begins with an “initial impulse,” which sets the stage for subsequent trends.
This impulse, whether periodic or rhythmic, forms the foundation for future market behavior. Periodic movements repeat after fixed intervals, while rhythmic movements grow proportionally to the initial impulse.
Understanding and marking these impulses on price charts is a vital step in applying Gann’s techniques.
The Series 144 and Squaring Principles
Gann frequently referenced the significance of numerical series, particularly THE 144 SERIES . He argued that price movements often align with values derived from this sequence.
For instance, the duration of an initial impulse may correspond to one value in the series, while subsequent reactions adhere to multiples or subdivisions of this value.
Squaring, a cornerstone of Gann’s theory, involves matching price ranges with equivalent time periods. This can be applied in various forms:
Squaring the price range: Balancing the maximum and minimum price range over a specific time period.
Squaring the minimum price: Equating the duration of a move with its lowest price point.
Squaring the maximum price: Aligning the time elapsed with the highest price point.
Periodic and Rhythmic Movements
According to Gann, markets exhibit both periodic and rhythmic behaviors. Periodic movements repeat after a set number of time units, while rhythmic movements expand or contract in known proportions.
Identifying these characteristics is crucial for marking trends accurately and predicting future price action.
Key Considerations in Applying Gann’s Method
Inharmonious Market Behavior: Gann acknowledged that markets often deviate from ideal structures but emphasized that they ultimately revert to harmony. Recognizing these deviations and their eventual corrections is central to mastering his method.
Critical Points of Strength: Gann’s theory highlights the importance of key levels, such as 50% retracements, as points where price and time converge.
Templates and Extreme Values: Gann’s approach involves overlaying templates based on extreme highs and lows for specific time units (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly) to track market behavior accurately.
The Law of Vibration
Central to Gann’s teachings is the “Law of Vibration,” which posits that all market movements follow universal laws of motion and rhythm.
By studying the past and present, traders can predict future price action with remarkable precision. This principle underpins the repetitive nature of market trends and cycles, reinforcing Gann’s assertion that history repeats itself.
Gann’s Legacy
Gann’s work, often regarded as esoteric, challenges traders to elevate their understanding of market dynamics. His insights into the interplay of time and price continue to inspire new generations of traders to uncover the “Creator’s plan” in financial markets.
While applying his methods requires patience and meticulous study, the rewards are profound for those who master the art of balance and harmony in trading.
Conclusion
By embracing the principles of time balance, the initial impulse, numerical series, and the Law of Vibration, traders can uncover patterns and cycles that enhance their market predictions.
Although Gann’s techniques require dedication and a willingness to delve into intricate concepts, they offer profound insights for those who persevere. His legacy endures as a testament to the potential of blending analytical precision with universal principles, making his methods a timeless guide for mastering market rhythms.

FLOKIUSDT.1DThe daily chart of FLOKI/USDT demonstrates a developing bullish pattern, with the price navigating through a significant resistance zone. This analysis aims to assess the price dynamics, highlight key resistance and support levels, and interpret the potential movement indicated by technical indicators.
Price Action and Structure:
FLOKI/USDT has recently exhibited a bullish trend, breaking above a key resistance-turned-support level at $0.00019908 (S1). The current price near $0.00026837 suggests that the asset is testing resistance within an upward trajectory marked by a long-term ascending resistance line.
Resistance and Support Levels:
Resistance Levels: Immediate resistance is observed at $0.00031642 (R1). Overcoming this level could pave the way for the price to test further highs at $0.00034900 (R2), aligning with historical peaks and the resistance line.
Support Levels: The first major support level is at $0.00019908 (S1). This level previously acted as resistance and could now provide significant support in case of retracement. Additional support exists at lower levels, but the immediate focus is on maintaining above S1.
Moving Averages:
The price moving above the previous resistance at $0.00019908 and maintaining this level suggests bullish momentum, confirmed by the alignment above dynamic support lines.
Technical Indicators:
MACD: The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is currently in positive territory, with the MACD line above the signal line, indicating continued upward momentum. The histogram also supports this with a positive reading, suggesting bullish market sentiment.
RSI: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at a moderate level, providing room for further upward movement without immediate concerns of being overbought.
Conclusion:
FLOKI/USDT is positioned in a bullish setup, with the potential to challenge and possibly break above the immediate resistance at $0.00031642 (R1). Successful navigation above this level could lead to testing higher resistance at $0.00034900 (R2). Given the current MACD and RSI readings, the asset shows potential for continued bullish behavior. However, maintaining support at $0.00019908 (S1) is crucial for sustaining the upward trend. Traders should watch these levels closely, preparing for possible volatility as the price approaches these critical junctures.

GANN TRADING LESSON: TIME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PRICEGANN TRADING LESSON: TIME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PRICE – THE CORE OF W.D. GANN’S METHODOLOGY
William Delbert Gann, one of the most enigmatic figures in trading history, built his legendary status on a profound understanding of market movements. Among his many revolutionary insights, none resonate more than his assertion: “TIME is more important than PRICE.” Gann's studies reveal that markets are governed by cyclical laws where TIME dictates market behavior, and PRICE merely reflects the outcomes.
This article delves deeply into Gann’s philosophy, integrating examples, methodologies, and references from his works, to illuminate why mastering TIME can give traders a significant edge.
Understanding the Superiority of TIME in Trading
1. The Foundation of Gann’s Philosophy:
- In his book “The Tunnel Thru the Air”, Gann states, “The future is but a repetition of the past; cycles can be studied and predicted with mathematical precision.”
- This emphasizes that TIME controls market events. Price, on the other hand, is secondary—a mere result of the unfolding TIME cycles.
2. Why TIME is More Important Than PRICE:
- PRICE is Reactive: Price changes happen as a result of events, but those events themselves are determined by TIME cycles. Without the correct timing, price predictions are speculative at best.
- TIME is Predictive: Understanding TIME cycles allows traders to foresee when significant price movements are likely to occur, providing a roadmap for market behavior.
3. The Illusion of PRICE:
- Traders often fall into the trap of chasing prices—buying highs or selling lows—without realizing that markets move within predetermined TIME windows. Gann showed that price breakouts or breakdowns are unsustainable if they occur outside critical TIME cycles.
Key Concepts from Gann’s Methodology on TIME
1. The Law of Vibration: Gann believed that every market has its unique vibration, influenced by TIME cycles. In “The Law of Vibration”, Gann explains that market movements align with natural and cosmic vibrations, which repeat over TIME.
2. Cyclicality of Markets: Markets move in cycles determined by TIME. Gann’s studies revealed major cycles such as:
- The 20-Year Cycle: Markets often exhibit significant highs or lows every 20 years.
- The 60-Year Cycle: This aligns with major economic booms and depressions.
- Planetary Cycles: Gann tied TIME cycles to planetary movements, including the 11.86-year Jupiter cycle and Saturn’s 29.5-year orbit.
3.The Square of Nine and TIME Projections: Gann’s Square of Nine is one of his most famous tools. While often used to predict price levels, it is equally powerful for determining TIME turning points.
Example: The Square of Nine can map out important dates when markets are likely to reverse, based on the angle of price and TIME.
4. Geometry in TIME: In “The Geometry of Stock Market Profits”, Gann emphasized the relationship between price and TIME through angles. A 1x1 angle (45 degrees) represents the ideal balance between price and TIME. Any deviation from this angle signals acceleration or deceleration in the trend.
5. Astrological Influence on TIME: Gann’s work integrates astrology to predict TIME cycles. He studied planetary aspects, transits, and lunar phases to determine when markets would experience significant changes.
Example: Gann highlighted the importance of eclipses, retrogrades, and planetary conjunctions in marking market highs and lows.
Practical Applications of TIME in Trading
1. Time-Price Symmetry: Gann believed that price movements often mirror TIME durations.
Example: If a market drops 100 points over 10 days, it is likely to recover 100 points over a similar TIME interval.
2. Repetition of Historical Cycles:
Gann showed that the 1929 crash followed a similar TIME pattern to earlier financial crises. By studying historical TIME intervals, traders can predict future market events.
Timing Highs and Lows:
3. Use Fibonacci TIME zones to identify when markets are likely to peak or bottom. Combine this with Gann’s techniques, such as using the Square of Nine, for precise predictions.
Seasonality and TIME Cycles:
4. Markets are influenced by seasonal and cyclical TIME patterns. Gann demonstrated that major market reversals often coincide with solstices, equinoxes, and other seasonal turning points.
Examples of TIME’s Importance in Gann’s Predictions
1. The 1929 Stock Market Crash: Gann predicted the crash using TIME cycles, noting that it occurred 60 years after the Panic of 1869 and 30 years after the 1899 bear market.
2. The 1987 Crash: Gann’s methods, when applied to long-term TIME cycles, also align with the 1987 crash. It occurred exactly 58 years after the 1929 collapse, reflecting the repetitive nature of TIME cycles.
The Interplay Between TIME and PRICE
While PRICE is easier to track and analyze, Gann believed that the greatest trading success comes from aligning PRICE movements with TIME predictions. He illustrated this in his “Master Forecasting Course”, where he taught students to:
- Map out major TIME cycles.
- Identify the angles and relationships between TIME and PRICE.
- Use TIME as a framework to validate PRICE movements.
Steps to Master Gann’s TIME Methodology
Study Historical Cycles:
- Identify significant market events and analyze the TIME intervals between them.
Use Tools Like the Square of Nine:
- Plot critical TIME intervals to predict market reversals.
Combine TIME Analysis with Price Patterns:
- Validate price movements with TIME projections to confirm trends or reversals.
Incorporate Natural and Planetary Cycles:
