Find the 1×1 from a major low

Before you start

• Open Studio and type BTCUSDT in the symbol box. Pick W (weekly) as the interval.
• Find the low you'll count from. A turn the market clearly respected makes a better anchor than one you have to squint at.

Steps

1. 1⌥1Lock price to time. The top bar shows the scale it settles on, such as $754 a week; the 1×1 now stays at 45° however you zoom.
2. 2⌥STurn on the magnet, so your clicks snap to the bar's high or low rather than near it.
3. 3⌥GPick the Gann fan. It's on the rail, in the Gann group.
4. 4Click the major low. Before you click, the fan follows the pointer, so you can see where it will hang.
5. 5Click a high the 1×1 should pass through. The fan is drawn, and the heavy ray is the 1×1.
6. 6Click the fan to select it: its bar and Properties change the scale and which angles show.

⌥ is Alt on Windows and Linux.

Reading it

The 1×1 rises one unit of price for each unit of time, at the scale your two clicks set. Every other ray is a multiple of it: 1×2 and 1×4 below, 2×1 and 4×1 above.

The fan's bar offers 2 points (the default: the pivot, then a point the 1×1 passes through) and 1 click, which hangs the fan from the pivot at the locked scale.

Where price meets a ray is a place to look, not a forecast. Our tests of Gann angles on Bitcoin found no edge over chance, so check any fan on your own market before relying on it.
