balanced trend, not too fast and not too slow, but just right. In a
bullish uptrend, the 1 x 1 angle tends to provide major support.
When this 1 x 1 angle is broken, a significant price trend reversal is
signaled. The price should then drop down to test the 2 x 1 angle,
below.
In a downtrend, the 1 x 1 angle extends "southeast" at a precise 45
degree angle. Eventually, after a downtrend, when price moves
above and stays above the 1 x 1 angle (which is sloping down and to
the right at 45 degrees), price should then make its way up to test
the next, less-steep Gann angle, the declining 2 x 1 angle. An angle
that provided resistance, once decisively broken, should provide
support.
Furthermore, when a 1 x 1 angle crosses a horizontal line extending
forward in time from a significant past pivot point price (an obvious
high or low), then time and price are square relative to that past
pivot point, and that is a likely time for a change in trend or an
acceleration of the existing trend. Also, when a geometric angle
crosses zero or another geometric angle, a trend change is likely.
Identification of the most important Gann angle is dependent of the
price level of the instrument analyzed: very high and very low priced
instruments will follow steeper and shallower Gann angles,
respectively. In other words, the best functioning Gann angle for
support and resistance depends on the price level of the instrument
being analyzed.
