(To make a success trading in stocks every man should lear...)
To make a success trading in stocks every man should learn everything he can about the stock market and the ways to operate in the market in order to make the greatest success. He should learn to take the smallest risk possible and then try to make the greatest profits possible. The more a man studies and learns the greater success he will have. We quote Proverbs 1: 5- "The wise man will Increase learning." Again, Proverbs 2: 11- "Discretion shall preserve these; understanding shall keep thee. "Proverbs 3: 9- "Give instructions to a wise man and he will become wiser. Teach a just man and he will increase in learning." The "Book of the Lambs" says that the fear of the market is the beginning of knowledge. Many people do not realize that without preparation and knowledge the stock market is dangerous and that it is easier to make losses than it is to make profits. However, the risks in stock speculation or investment are no greater than in any other line of business if you understand and apply the proper rules to speculative trading, and the profits compared to risks are greater than in any other business.

(For over 50 years, the accuracy of Gann's forecast have s...)
For over 50 years, the accuracy of Gann's forecast have stunned thousands. Those the world over who have followed his advice for years testify that over 85 percent of his predictions are correct. "I figure things by mathematics," Mr. Gann explained. "There is nothing mysterious about any of my predictions. If I have the data, I can use algebra and geometry and tell exactly by the theory of cycles when a certain thing is going to occur again." This book gives instructions on how to obtain much of that data by the use of the stock tape. Written in 1923 to help those were were trying to help themselves in speculation and investment trading, this book was proclaimed a masterpiece on teaching one how to read and use the stock tape. It's doubtful there's a better book yet written on the subject. Gann had many special insights in reading the tape and considered it an art. Though Mr. Gann died in 1956, his books and research have been acquired by and are being returned to print by Billy Jones of Pomeroy, Washington. Mr. Jones, a successful cattle and wheat rancher, and stock and commodity trader himself, hopes in time to bring all of Mr. Gann's books back into print.

(The aim and object of every trader who enters Wall Street...)
The aim and object of every trader who enters Wall Street is to make money, yet it is a well-known fact that a large percentage of traders lose money. There are many reasons for their losses. One of the most important is that they do not know how to select the right stocks to buy and sell at the right time. I expect to give rules provable and practical which will help traders to study and learn how to select the proper stocks to buy and sell with a minimum of risk. The main object of this book is to bring TRUTH OF THE STOCK TAPE up to date and give the investor and trader the benefit of seven more years of my experience, which has been valuable to me, and if the reader will profit by my experience, it will prove valuable to him. In this life we must have some definite aim or hope to attain happiness. Money will not bring all of it. Neither can we always help others with money. The best way that I know of to help others is to show them how to help themselves. Therefore, knowledge and understanding properly imparted to others is the greatest good that we can do for them and at the same time do good for ourselves. Thousands of people have written me that I have helped them through TRUTH OF THE STOCK TAPE. I believe the WALL STREET STOCK SELECTOR will give you more knowledge, will bring you more happiness through money gained, than any other book. If it does, I will be well repaid for my labor. - W. D. GANN

(No man can learn all there is to know about forecasting t...)
No man can learn all there is to know about forecasting the trend of stocks in 3, 5, 10, or 20 years but if he is a deep student and hard worker, he learns more and knowledge comes easier after years of experience. I knew more about determining the trend of stocks in 1923 than I did in 1911. Seven more years of experience gave me more knowledge and enabled me to write THE WALL STREET STOCK SELECTOR in 1939 and give my readers the benefit of my increased knowledge. Now, after five more years have elapsed my experience and practical test of new rules have enabled me to learn more of value since 1930. The 1929-1932 panic and what has followed since, gave me valuable experience and I have gained more knowledge about detecting the right stocks to buy and sell. W.D. Gann CONTENTS I.

(In addressing you on the subject of investing your surplu...)
In addressing you on the subject of investing your surplus funds, I might state that there is no other subject which I could select that so closely concerns your welfare and regarding which you might receive valuable assistance from my instructions. In the United States a stupendous sum, reaching into millions of dollars, is wasted annually in foolish speculations and unwise investments. This senseless waste can be traced to one and only one source, namely, lack of knowledge. Men and women who would not attempt to treat the slightest ailment, or even adjust so common a thing as a kitchen faucet, but would hand each difficulty over to its respective specialist, the doctor or the plumber, will on the spur of the moment and without the slightest preparation, undertake the investment of thousands of dollars in enterprises about which they understand absolutely nothing. Is it any wonder then that they lose? I offer you suggestions and advice in the science of speculation and investment in the same spirit as the physician. He would not think of guaranteeing you perpetual life or insuring you against the common ills to which the flesh is heir. But in your difficulties he brings to your aid the accumulated experience of his profession, and a skill and knowledge which required years to accumulate and is ready for your instant use. I do not offer you a beautiful theory which will not work in practice, but give you invaluable advice, which if followed, will insure success in practical everyday Wall Street speculations and other fields of investment. It has been well said that a writer who writes first for remuneration and secondly because he believes what he writes, will never achieve enduring fame, and that the salesman who does not believe in his goods will never make a success. I believe in the theory and rules that I have laid down in this book for you to follow, because I have tested and proved them. It is my object in this work to facilitate and focalize the essential principles for practical use. My knowledge comes from over twenty years' experience, in which I have traversed the rough and rugged road that the inexperienced trader's foot must press before he reaches the goal. Hence my object in writing this book is to give to the public something new and practical, not theory alone which would fail in practice. Read this book carefully several times; study each chart and subject thoroughly, and a new light and knowledge will come to you every time you read it. If I succeed in teaching only a few to leave wild gambling alone and follow the path of conservative speculation and investment, my work will not have been in vain and I will have been amply repaid for my efforts. W.D. GANN.

(The name "W. D. Gann" is known throughout the stocks and ...)
The name "W. D. Gann" is known throughout the stocks and commodities markets. However, this particular book has nothing to do with investing! In this inspirational masterpiece about the role of the human being in the universe, W. D. Gann uses the Bible to explore the secret to successful living. Through direct teachings from the Bible, you will learn how to understand, obey and apply the universal laws revealed in the Bible in order to bring about your own latent talents and powers and put you on the road towards health, happiness and prosperity. A book, to be worth reading, must do more than amuse and interest. It must be instructive to be of real value to the reader. This book has a threefold purpose: First, it is an interesting romance. Second, it teaches a moral lesson and proves the natural laws laid down in the Bible. Third, it shows the value of science, foreknowledge and preparedness. It has been well said that truth is stranger than fiction. This story is founded on facts and events, many of which have happened or will happen in the future. The "Tunnel Thru the Air" is mysterious and contains a valuable secret, clothed in veiled language. Some will find it the first time they read it, others will see it in the second reading, but the greatest number will find the hidden secret when they read it the third time.

Gann was born June 6, 1878 in Lufkin, Texas. His father was a cotton farmer.
Gann market forecasting methods are based on geometry, astronomy and astrology, and ancient mathematics. Opinions are sharply divided on the value and relevance of his work. Gann wrote a number of books on trading.
He started trading in 1902 when he was 24.
He was believed to be a religious man by nature who believed in religious as well as scientific value of Bible as the greatest book ever written. This can be repeatedly observed in his books
He was also a 33rd degree Freemason of the Scottish Rite Order, to which some have attributed his knowledge of ancient mathematics, though he was also known to have studied the ancient Greek and Egyptian cultures. Gann described the use of angles in the stock market in The Basis of My Forecasting Method (1935).
Calculating a Gann angle is equivalent to finding the derivative of a particular line on a chart in a simple way.
Each geometrical angle (which is really a line extended into space) divides time and price into proportionate parts. The most important angle Gann called the 1x1 or the 45° angle, which he said represented one unit of price for one unit of time. If you draw a perfect square and then draw a diagonal line from one corner of the square to the other, you have illustrated the concept of the 1x1 angle, which moves up one point per day.
There has been a general disagreement whether he made profits by speculation himself.
However, his famous Ticker Interview shows that his claim to profits was as real as his documented forecasts.
