One important area to watch are the numbers on the Cardinal Cross One important area to watch are the numbers on the Cardinal Cross (Illustration 49). Gann referred to these often when talking about (Illustration 49). Gann referred to these often when talking about trend change. When major tops and bottoms occur on the cross, trend change. When major tops and bottoms occur on the cross, support/resistance for time and price can be found in market support/resistance for time and price can be found in market movement months and sometimes years later.

Getting back to the square root relationship. If you want to move Getting back to the square root relationship. If you want to move around the coordinates of the Square, you take the number you are around the coordinates of the Square, you take the number you are interested in (such as the all time High or Low price), calculate interested in (such as the all time High or Low price), calculate the square root of the number, then add or subtract 2 from the the square root of the number, then add or subtract 2 from the root and re-square the result. This will give the adjacent number root and re-square the result. This will give the adjacent number in the next cycle out. It helps to round off numbers to a 3 digit in the next cycle out. It helps to round off numbers to a 3 digit number to make it easier for angle analysis on the Square.

Incorporating these techniques allows us to calculate coordinates Incorporating these techniques allows us to calculate coordinates of Astro cycles that are:
This technique is extremely useful for finding coordinate squares This technique is extremely useful for finding coordinate squares on the square of 9 that are making hard aspects to a previous looking for astronomical longitudes to balance with price on these looking for astronomical longitudes to balance with price on these key angles.
