Price Time Volume Investing

The Top 100 Growth Stock list is a mechanically generated set of stocks that meet strict fundamental guidelines and have strong relative price strength. I’ve added a sub-list of stocks on the right sidebar which contains stocks from the Top 100 list which are near the 50 day moving average. This filters out those stocks that have already run too far to consider. Continue reading

Analysis of the Intel Corporation (INTC) chart using a Gann Fan and discussing an example of my guess of Gann’s Master Time Factor. Continue reading

The interday charts look bad but the daily chart remains in position to move higher. Price needs to take out the recent highs with another continuation day and then blast higher before we become totally overbought. I don’t usually worry about moving averages but they do serve as resistance to price. Continue reading

The post discusses Gann 0 angles and provides and example. Zero angles are created by using points per units of time. The angle originates at a significant high or low on the chart. In this case I used the 1998 high of the airline index. Continue reading

The Gann Square of 52 measures relative market movements from one year to the next. This post discusses the square of 52 and how it is used by PTV-Investing.com. Continue reading

I have found that range squares work well with my top 100 growth stocks. It is rare that one of these stocks setups nicely within the square of the range, but Lumber Liquidators (LL) has done so. I will follow this over the next several weeks and provide updates if anything interesting occurs. Continue reading

Using Gannalyst and Yahoo historical data I created a couple charts of the DOW (INDU) going back to 1942. It may be interesting to go back further but Yahoo only provides data to 1928 which misses the low before the 1929 bubble. Continue reading

A few weeks ago I posted about using the Top 100 Growth Stocks list on the right sidebar for finding potential buys when the market turns up. I decided to parse though my C++ code to see what beer induced formula I came up with a few years ago. Continue reading

This chart shows the NDX range from the take off in 1995 to the end of the bull market. Note how the correction into 2002 moved all the way down to the 1:16 slope. This is double the move of a normal market move. My assumption is that the move from 1995-2000 was actually twice the slope it should have been. Continue reading

I’ve been reading Bill McLaren’s work for a couple years and the thing he stresses the most are the day to day swings of the markets. The idea is that the trend will always have more days and points in the direction of the trend than the counter-trend. Continue reading

A Gann Fan is nothing more than a slope of a significant range and multiples of that slope. For those of you who have been following my Range Square analysis, you will notice that this is not any different. Continue reading

This is the second in a series of posts meant to provide a guide to those who have been emailing about my method. Once a range is found that appears to be significant, then vertical lines called time Gann Angles are placed using the starting and ending point as 100% of “time”. Adding time cycles will make it easier to validate (or invalidate) the range you selected. Continue reading

This is the first in a series of posts meant to provide a guide to those who have been emailing about my “method”. What I do is very simple. All that is needed is a price data and a tool to plot it. Continue reading

This chart of the Nasdaq 100 (NDX) is similar to the SP500 Index (SPX) square I posted yesterday. The “Y” axis is based on the price range of the move from October to March. Continue reading

As a follow up to a previous post on the Square of 90, I want to show an current example of the square in use. As discussed previously, the “Y” axis of price is arbitrary and time is the important aspect of the Gann Square of 90. Continue reading

My interpretation of the Gann Square of 90 is that it is a very simple method to measure the strength of an entity over the course of a significant time cycle - 90 days. The more I look at Gann squares, the more I believe that Gann was not directly concerned with price. The squares are meant to measure time. Continue reading

I updated that Gann Emblems link found under the Charts heading on the right side of the page. The July and January high/low are available for the Valueline Arithmetic Index (VLE). Continue reading
