Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of an investment swindle from one hundred years ago.William Delbert Gann was a stockbroker and confidence trickster who died in Brooklyn in 1955. I have not been able to find any evidence that he ever traded for his own profit. In his promotional literature he claimed that he was not a broker and that he only looked after the interests of his private clients, but the New York Times says otherwise.He was highly intelligent and when his book The Tunnel Thru The Air was published in 1927, he had, as you will see, some knowledge about the Phoenicians and the Greeks and about the technique of building wooden ships. He was also well established in his own business in Wall Street. All these things are relevant. To understand the works of this man one must get behind his eyes and see into his soul.He claimed to be a scientist, but his intelligence was for business and for literature. He had an astonishing ability to invent new metaphors for commonplace things. Figures of speech such as metaphors, similes and synonyms are the essence of poetry, and Mr. Gann seemed to have a liking for poetry, as was shown in one of his books by many excerpts from the works of American poets. However, the poems in the book also contained coded references to the time at which the price of a security can alter. Because such periods were not exclusively for strictly alternating tops and bottoms they cannot be identified by conventional cycle discovery methods.Part of the task of this book is to unravel these literary devices and show what he did mean. His skill at obfuscation was very great, yet within his writing he did reveal one method of value - nothing that will make you one thousand per cent profit in one month, as a well known magazine article dishonestly claimed for him, but just one method of utility.I promise you that you will puzzle over his books and 'courses' and will struggle to see anything of value. It is because all his works used metaphors which cannot be taken literally. He did not use the motion of the planets and neither did he plot one-by-one charts for himself. These last were much touted methods of his. He claimed that other people had said of him that "This man can make a fortune from reading the ticker tape alone." However, I have not been able to find any proof that he ever indulged in proprietary trading.The way he disguised the real nature of his alleged trading methods is extraordinary. He is as obscure as James Joyce and as imaginative. How he did it will be exposed in full.SOME REVIEWSThis man has solved all the enigmas which William Gann posed - the periodic table, the 'cycles' which he used, the 50% rule and his 'use' of astrology. But, as he himself says, "Do not forget the sub-title of this book - An Account of a Stock Market Scam. The ability to fully understand William Gann will not make one rich."F. M. Snodgrass in The Snodgrass PapersJust brilliant! What other book on finance would mention J. B. Priestly, James Joyce, The Maltese Falcon, James Stewart, Oscar Wilde, Thomas Edison, H. G. Wells, Eddington and Einstein? And that is just for starters and all of it is relevant.William BloggsGet it at once. It is the only book on finance that you will need. It is about finance and it is about life.Mustafa KamelHis thought experiment on pensions is worth fifty times the price of the book.Kofe N. Kroke
