You are confusing a Gann Square with a GannSquare 
of 9.  I am not trying to generate a Gann Square of 9 on a chart, but a 
Gann square based on the Square of 9.
 
I am curious, however, 
do you have any evidence that 
either is a "bunch of crap?"  Do you know how to generate a square 
or even use it properly?  Do you have another technique that generates 
time and price from a single high or low point?  The attached is a 
recent example of the square for gold from the 4/2/01 low.  The 180 
degree level is 289 and the actual was 288.5.  The square in time is 16 
and is one day off.  Do you have anything that could make these 
projections based on the 4/2/01 low?  Would love to see a valid 
alternative.  
 
Could other TA have made similar 
projections.  Probably.  Does this mean that I don't use Gann 
stuff - no.  I use anything and everything that 
works.
 
I am not a Gann defender, nor an Elliott or 
Fibonacci or anything defender.  If you have a defendable basis for 
rejecting a particular methodology then please share it with the 
group.  Otherwise, one might get the impression that your opinionsare 
totally subjective in nature.
 
By the way, although I am not a student of Gann, I 
have read that when he died he had $50MM in an offshore bank that was 
shielded from his family or at least some of them.
 
Good luck in your trading.
 
Bill

I've never seen such a thing.  Gann squares are 
usually a table drawn by hand in a spiral where the key dates are those at 
certain angles of the square (or hexagon).  Numbering starts at the 
centre and radiates outwards in a spiral.  When a price is hit at say 
the 90deg radial then usually it means the next stop of is another 
quadrant angle such as 45, 180, 270 (from memory).  So whatever price 
was at that point is the possible up/downside.
 
Frankly I think its a bunch of crap.  Plentyof 
newsgroups don't give this approach much credit and note that Gann 
survived on the money from his family business not from trading. Or so I'm 
told.
 
How its proposed to turn all this into an indicator I 
wait with interest - academic interest not serious trading 
interest.

I am trying to build an indicator that will 
generate a Gann square.  The horizontal levels are OK, but I cannot 
figure out how to draw vertical lines after calculating their 
values.  Does anyone know how this can be 
done.
