The numbers that fall on the blue lines form what’s known as the “Cardinal Cross”
and the numbers that fall on the red lines running into the corners of the square, form
what’s known as the “Ordinal Cross”. Any numbers that fall on these lines are said to
act as significant support and resistance levels. So the Square of nine is an interesting
arrangement of numbers that have a specific order and can be used in many different
ways.
The interesting thing is that with the use of a simple Excel spreadsheet you can also
change the value of the middle or centre number to represent the exact value of an
actual high or low price for whatever market you’re interested in. This number can be
a positive number for lows which will spiral upwards in price or a negative number
for highs which will spiral downwards in price. In this example I’m going to be using
the all time high of the Australian SPI 200 as the middle number in the centre of the
square which is 3500, and it occurred on the 7/3/2002. What I’m going to show you
now is how we can use the Square of nine to help qualify the significance of two of
the major lows that occurred as part of this major bear market we have all been
witnessing. The following chart is a weekly chart and the points of interest on this
chart have been labelled with the relevant prices and dates marked on the chart, please
make a note of these because I will be discussing them in more detail shortly.

The following chart is the Square of nine using the all time high of the Australian SPI
200 as the middle number in the centre of the Square which is 3500, and it occurred on
the 7/3/2002. Because it’s a high, this will be a negative number and will be entered
as -3500 and will spiral down in value. What I have done here is colour the square
where the first significant low occurred which was 2889 - 10/10/2002, and what we
are looking for here is to see where the price of the low sits in relation to the Square
of Nine. In this example we can see that the price of 2889 sits only one Square away
from the Cardinal Cross which are the numbers highlighted in blue.
As mentioned previously all numbers that fall on the Ordinal Cross or the Cardinal
Cross are considered to be important support and resistance levels. So the Square of
Nine in this example is suggesting that the price of 2889 is likely to be an important
support level and a reasonably important low.

But the Square of nine can go even further to help qualify the significance of a high
or low point. We have already established the price of 2889 as being reasonably
significant as a possible support level. What we can do now is check to see if the
“Date” of this low is also important using the Square of Nine. So in order to do that
all we need to do is select the “Time” page on the Square of nine spreadsheet and
then simply enter the date of the high of 3500 which occurred on the 7/3/2002 into the
centre, or middle of the Square of Nine. Now that we have done that, all we need to
do is check to see if the date of the low of 2889 - 10/10/2002 sits anywhere interesting
in relation to the Square of nine. So, on the following Square of nine “Time” chart we
can see the date of 10/10/2002 is sitting rite on the Cardinal Cross and is therefore
representing a significant time frame at our significant support level of 2889. This is known as an alignment in both time and price, and suggests a high probability turning point.
If we were to now look at the most recent low that has occurred on the Australian SPI 200 you will find a reasonably significant low of 2679 – 13/3/2003. Looking at the
same Square of nine “Time” chart we can see the date of this low occurring on the
13/3/2003 can also be found on the Cardinal Cross, and is only one Square out! So the
Square of nine “Time” chart is suggesting the time frame in which this low occurred
is significant, and is therefore a low to watch for a potential change in trend.

Ideally always look for both a time and a price alignment to come together to produce
a higher probability turning point as per the first example given. However individual price levels or time frames found occurring on the Ordinal Cross or Cardinal Cross
should also be noted and watched for potential turning points.
Learning to use the Square of nine can get a whole lot more complicated than that,
and I’ve really just given you a simple lesson on it here in this article. Some of the other, more advanced techniques you can apply to the Square of nine may very well
become the subject of a future lesson.

Gann’s Square of Nine
By Jason Sidney
Gann’s Square of nine is one of the more exotic tools he incorporated in his trading,
and while this is a relatively daunting tool that requires a fare amount of practice to
master, it can certainly add a whole new dimension to your analysis. Gann never
claimed to be the inventor of this tool; however he certainly developed it and refined
it to be used in conjunction with financial markets. The Square of nine has origins
that date back to early Egyptian days, and when looking at it one gets the impression
your actually viewing a pyramid looking down from its very top or apex and then
looking down further to its actual ****. It is said Gann actually discovered the Square
of nine during his travels in India, which he saw being used as a calculator by traders
in the region selling their goods.
Gann being someone with a mathematical mind recognised its value and saw its
potential to be used in conjunction with financial markets. He then refined it
specifically for that purpose, and what great job he did!
The Square of nine is mainly used to confirm the significance of recent high and low
points in whatever market you might be interested in. It should never be used to pick
tops and bottoms; however it can provide additional evidence to help confirm the
significance of a recent high or low point in the market when a break of trend is then
later confirmed.
The Square of nine is similar to a wheel or a circle, it starts with the number one in
the centre of the circle and then radiates out to the first Square of nine. Starting with
the number two to the left of the centre or the number one. It then spirals clockwise to
the number nine, to form its first rotation around the Square of Nine. This rotation
then continues by shifting one unit to the left of nine and will commence the next
rotation at the number ten and then around to the number twenty. This spiralling
expansion of numbers just continues out until you end up with a grid of numbers,
relevant in price to the market your trading.
The Square of nine is essentially a time and price calculator, and calculates the square
root of numbers, both odd and even numbers as well as their midpoints. It also looks
for both time and price alignments from a specific starting point or price level E.g. a
significant high or low point in a market. If you were to look at the numbers on the
grid running down to the bottom left hand corner on the Square of Nine, you will find
they are the Square root of odd numbers E.g. 5x5 = 25. If you were to look at the
numbers running up to the top right hand corner on the Square of nine you will find
they are the Square root of even numbers e.g. 4x4 = 16. If you then look at the
numbers running down to the bottom right hand corner on the Square of nine you
would find the midpoint between the squares of odd and even numbers. Using the
numbers 16 and 25 as an example of our odd and even numbers you will find the
number 21 representing their midpoint.
