GANN, William Delbert.
Inquire · Offered by Peter Harrington
45 Years in Wall Street. First edition of Gann's final book, collecting his investment advice and wisdom after a near-half century of promoting financial strategies based on geometry, astronomy, astrology, and ancient mathematics. Although derided by professional traders, Gann's pronouncements were eagerly followed by amateur investors during the 1920s boom, who sought meaning and strategy amid rising prices and market fever. "Gann's works are the subject of much controversy. True believers abound and still follow many of his arcane methods of forecasting, which emphasise timing, rather than price or volume, cycles, vibrations... what is evident is that, in certain circles, his work and life are as much revered today as they were fifty or more years ago" (Dennistoun, p. 128).Gann's New Stock Trend Detector, first published in 1936, is bound at the rear as issued.
